Let’s face it: with rare exceptions, good or bad Pick Up Group dungeon experiences usually have very little to do with the dungeon itself. Last night, for instance, I dropped in on two back to back PuGs as a tank and had solid runs in both cases. But the first run was a silent zerg [...]
Every week, Shifting Perspectives explores issues affecting druids and those who group with them. This week, we cross our fingers and hope there are more fights like the gunship battle up ahead.
Hail, druids. I’ll be continuing a look at Balance gear whenever the gear lists on Wowhead start behaving themselves (down, boy!), which I sincerely [...]
People who were worried that creating Shadowmourne, the legendary two-handed axe, would be double the grind that Val’anyr was might want to relax a little, as the official WoW Armory just clued us in as to where and how often the Shadowfrost Shards necessary to craft it drop.
As per the quest The Splintered Throne, you’re [...]
Welcome back to The Queue, WoW.com’s daily Q&A column where the WoW.com team answers your questions about the World of Warcraft. Mike Sacco will be your host today.
Patch 3.3, the Fall of the Lich King, is finally here, and you know what that means! Well, I mean, hopefully it means questions for the Queue [...]
Our friend Kevin Kelly over at the Joystiq mothership got a chance to talk to Frank Pearce at Blizzard about the Warcraft anniversary, and he did us proud. Not only did Frank Pearce do some nice reminiscing about Blizzard, where they’ve come from, and how the massive World of Warcraft undertaking has changed them as [...]
Business Management has a really interesting graphic up (that they say came partly from Eurogamer.net, but I didn’t see it over there) that breaks down WoW “by the numbers.” It features an interesting series of stats about the game, in what I call an Oatmeal-style format, everything from number of players and items (30,000) to [...]
Well, they started giving away pets for having an authenticator, so I guess it’s about time I went ahead and put one on my account. I’ve had the app on my iPhone for a while, actually, but I never really saw the point in attaching it to my account, especially since it seemed like just [...]
Two Bosses Enter … but only One Boss Leaves, in WoW.com’s series of fantasy death matches. Welcome to Round Two of the five-man Wrath of the Lich King season. Grab a seat, and let’s get ready to rumble!
It’s getting tighter in here … This week brings together Chrono-Lord Epoch (The Culling of Stratholme) and [...]
The Care and Feeding of Warriors is WoW.com’s coverage of all things clanky and angry. Matthew Rossi decided he would give PuGGing another try last night with the advent of patch 3.3 and the new random dungeon interface. He choose…poorly.
What I really dislike is when someone tells me something which could not possibly be true [...]
T for Thunderfury is the epic tale of Baron Soosdon’s quest to get Thunderfury for his paladin. When he finally managed this epic feat, needless to say, there was a party.
This video has a similar epic, awesome feel to many of Soosdon’s videos. And while it’s not technically a machinima, I still enjoyed [...]
