Snowyfox of the US Vek’nilash server recently brought up a point on the forums which is near and dear to my heart: 5-mans really feel like they’ve lost their heart. In both Vanilla WoW and Burning Crusade, you could usually count on having the motivation and reward for running a 5 man no matter what [...]
Yesterday, the PTR servers were loaded with the most recent build of the upcoming 3.3 content. This included Forge of Souls, a new 5 player dungeon which is meant to be the introductory instance into Icecrown Citadel. As we made our way into the frozen halls of the citadel to where the dungeons are housed, [...]
Most mice these days have maybe one or two stylish buttons for you to press during gameplay. Razer’s Naga mouse has a few more than that — in addition to the usual wheel and right and left buttons, it has an extra 12 button thumbpad for you to bind to whatever you want (with the [...]
This week The Care and Feeding of Warriors finally does that long piece about Armor Penetration. You’ll find Matthew Rossi screaming at the moon, caked in his own blood, after plunging into these non-Euclidian mysteries.
I’ve been threatening to write about it for weeks. Thing is, I’m not too sure who I’m threatening, you or me.

Our very own Michael Sacco actually got his hands on a copy of that PC Gamer full of Cataclysm details, and there was apparently one that we missed: Gnomes may be coming back to Gnomeregan.

Hold onto your hats, boys and girls — this week’s a wild one in the Two Bosses [...]
Ready Check is a column focusing on successful raiding for the serious raider. Hardcore or casual, Vault of Archavon or Ulduar, everyone can get in on the action and down some bosses. Okay. This event is different than any other raid instance that currently springs to mind. It’s got a level of customization that is [...]
In case you missed it, our own Robin Torres hosted a Pirates’ Day event last month, during the in game holiday. The intrepid members of It came from the Blog stormed Azeroth, rocking out their very own pirate style.
One of the attendees of the event, Tirex from Andorhal, was kind enough to capture it on [...]
Reader Jesta sent us a note about his new website. He’s a big fan of Stack Overflow, which is a big Q&A/advice site for programmers — you show up, ask your question, and then other folks who might or might not be working on the same problem post their answers, in moderated and organized threads [...]
Brewfest may be over, but as long as Thongar of The Underbog is dual-wielding his icy enchanted beer steins, his personal party will never end. Not even when his feet turn into bird claws and he starts trying to mate with a mechanical squirrel. And then the guards have to step in to protect him [...]
