WoW Insider Show live today at 3:30 PM Eastern

Every week, we broadcast live from several places worldwide (several rooms, anyway) to present you with the WoW Insider Show podcast — an hour’s worth of WoW community discussion, covering everything from the week’s top stories here on WoW.com to emails from our readers to what’s been going on with our particular characters in Azeroth.

Around Azeroth: I believe I can fly

Today’s submitter, Sölöman of Misha, might want to consider that he’s ’solo’ because his name makes it freaking impossible for anyone to invite him to a group. Anyway, solo-dude (not typing those alt-codes again) decided to take a spin around the Borean Tundra to celebrate his new epic flying skill. But lag conspired against him, [...]

Breakfast Topic: Does this topic not value its life

Meet Cro. Cro’s just an orc trying to make a living down in Lower City, but apparently it’s not as easy to just sell some items and be a vendor as everyone thinks. In Burning Crusade, players were entertained by the ongoing saga of orc vs. fruit vendor — a tiny little old lady who [...]

The Daily Blues

Each day WoW.com will take you through all the blue posts and other Blizzard news from around the internet. From Ghostcrawler’s latest posts to the lowdown on StarCraft II and Diablo III, we’ll keep you informed.
Today’s a Friday and there are only a few Blue posts (including “LOL I PWNED GC!”), but there’s also some [...]

The Daily Quest: We love flowcharts

Here at WoW.com we’re on a Daily Quest (which we try to do every day, honest) to bring you interesting, informative and entertaining WoW-related links from around the blogosphere. Is there a story out there we ought to link or a blog we should be following? Just leave us a comment and you may see [...]

WRUP: We wish we were playing…

…Mass Effect Online? World of Grim Fandango? So why aren’t we? Well, just for a start, they don’t exist. And, while we can daydream up our favorite games in newer, better formats, what we’re playing this weekend has to stay within the realm of reality. So what is the WoW.com team playing this weekend? And [...]

The OverAchiever: Accomplished Angler

Once WoW’s most disparaged profession, Fishing has experienced a resurgence in Wrath — and it may get even better in Cataclysm, with developers studying fishing from other games like Animal Crossing in order to make it more fun. As far as I’m concerned, as long as they cook up another distraction like the Dalaran fountain [...]

Ready Check: To Warsong or not to Warsong

For the first time this week, the Icecrown Citadel raid saw the addition of the “tugboat” buff known as Hellscream’s Warsong and the Strength of Wrynn. Essentially, this buff will provide a 5% increase to raiders’ damage, healing, and health. Over time, that percentage increase will eventually reach a 30% buff. For the purposes of [...]

Tom Chilton explains early WoW class balance (or lack thereof)

We see a fair amount of pining for “the way things used to be” in this community — rose-colored hindsight that is, by all accounts, horribly wrong. Maybe you enjoyed the sense of wonder upon going through the game the first time. That’s completely understandable. But no one really enjoyed running Molten Core. Or the [...]

Phat Loot Phriday: Wind Rider Cub

Lolegolas the Gnomekiller lounged next to the lumber mill in Arathi Basin. His sinewed arms lovingly stroked his bow. As he traced the intricately decorated shaft, Lolegolas reflected on his good fortune in possessing such a wonderful weapon. The Njordnar Bone Bow was a tool for the clever Sindorei, a proud weapon earned in proud [...]
