Further explanation for Icecrown’s delayed gating

Most everyone was a bit perturbed when we discovered that it would be 28 whole days before the new wing of Icecrown opens up (though we’ve since learned it’s just going to open whenever Blizzard flips the switch.) Even the explanation from Blizzard that only the first gate will be this long of a wait [...]

Breakfast Topic: What class mechanics have you had to learn to deal with?

In yesterday’s breakfast topic we talked about what dungeons you’ve had to relearn — how to deal with people in them and how to deal with all the pulls. Right in hand with that is the various ways people play their class. Prior to patch 3.3 WoW players could be rather insulated in their groups [...]

Tuesday Morning Post: Twas the night before Winter Veil

Happy Tuesday Morning to all good little boys and girls. Ok, and the naughty ones too. Patch 3.3 seems to be coming along relatively smoothly, but with weeks before we see the next section of the Icecrown Citadel open up, we’re sort of coasting along.

The best of WoW.com: February 2009

We’d rolled Naxxramas, trounced Malygos, beaten Sartharion and his little drakes to death — and that was all there was to do in Tier 7. With a roughly three-month wait between Wrath going live and the first whisper of patch 3.1 hitting the PTR, a number of players found themselves out of raiding content within [...]

All the World’s a Stage: Location, location, location

It’s probably simply a reflection of my own, long habits in terms of MMORPGs, but I tend to put a lot of thought in where to roleplay. I mean, a lot. When I first started seriously roleplaying in Dark Age of Camelot, one of my favorite areas was out by the docks. The sound and [...]
