Deadlyblond

Alright so I’ve decided to share once every week a WoW movie I’ve seen that is either interesting, entertaining, or both. One day I’ll make my own, need to buy another 1T hard drive to fill up with Fraps recordings first. Anyway, I digress, the video I’d like to point out this week is called “Deadlyblond – Brutal janitor”. Unfortunately there isn’t a youtube video available or any other embedded format so you’ll have to go to www.warcraftmovies.com and check it out. I suggest downloading it if you got the bandwidth because the author made an awesome effort at making a high quality video, otherwise there are a couple HQ (High Quality) versions available for viewing. I recommend using Tortun, it can be a bit buggy but streams videos very nicely. Read the rest of this entry »

(Insert Doctor Who or Twilight Zone music here)

For all of you who haven’t checked out the 3.1.0 patch notes that Blizzard has revealed, please do so now. There are quite a few upcoming class changes that are very easily going to turn the PvE and especially the PvP scenes upside down. I’m not going to get into all the nitty gritty details in this post because like all test realm patch notes they’re not definitive yet but I feel the need to discuss the changes that have been going on and what will happen to Death Knights, Blizzard’s experimental monstrosity.

WoW Census Data for classes at level 80 as of 22-02-2009

Months ago when Wrath of the Lich King first came out I made a post about the insane amount of Death Knights running amouk in Azeroth. After more than 3 months of the new expansion being out it’s safe to assume everyone who can, HAS made a Death Knight on their server or some other unfortunate server. The first week during WotLK Death Knight populations where ridiculous, anywhere between 20-25% of the overall population. Just like any new species brought into an ecosystem though nature finds a way to balance things out. Read the rest of this entry »

It’s been a week now since I started my twink project and I’m now level 44 at the time of writing this post. Not bad considering the amount of play time I get and that I also dedicate time to playing on my warrior and death knight as well. My experience post level 30 has been amazing, I can blaze through levels without any effort whatsoever and recently I’ve twinked my already twinked priest more with a shoulder enchant for my heirloom shoulders. That’s right folks, there’s a way to enchant your heirloom shoulders, there’s only one that works and it probably won’t be long before Blizzard “fixes” this issue. Read the rest of this entry »

So last Friday I thought I’d try my luck and managed to get into a group for Obsidian Sanctum (Heroic) but alas we couldn’t find enough members and the group dissapated. No worries, another group for OS (Normal 10 man version) was asking for another tank so I figured, alright, I’ll go with them. Before you try to point the finger and call me a n00b keep in mind that i’ve NEVER been here on my warrior… Read the rest of this entry »

Ziedra Level 1

I finally let my alt-itis get the better of me and succumbed to buying a bunch of heirlooms in an attempt to level up a priest. I say “attempt” because this will be my oh… 4th or 5th time I try to level up a priest. Every time I’ve gotten somewhere between level 20 and 30 before I just couldn’t take it anymore and gave up but this time I have some help! So I bought the following for now at level 1:

• The Blessed Hammer of Grace
• Exquisite Sunderseer Mantle
• Discerning Eye of the Beast
• Swift Hand of Justice

Pretty amusing to have spell damage and haste at level 1. Regardless, my level 1 twinked priest still ran OOM after smiting a few boars, luckily my Blessed Hammer of Grace packs quite a melee punch. Melee priest huzzah! Read the rest of this entry »

Only a couple weeks after Patch 3.08 Blizzard releases their “Fix” Patch, 3.09. Nothing terribly new or huge is in this patch nor did it cause any huge issues like its predecessor did. Despite a few minor tweaks and bug fixes this patch didn’t break any huge waves, unless of course you’re a mage or rogue… Read the rest of this entry »

First off let me warn you, the reader, that this is a bit of a vent post, and no I don’t mean it’s about Ventrilo. I intend to blow off some steam here to vent my frustrations I’ve been having since the now infamous within the WoW community, patch 3.08. The screenshot above shows a conversation I had with a GM a couple days ago, long after the day after the patch where it was total hell. Read the rest of this entry »

For those of you who haven’t noticed or are new I’ve recently tried changing the design of the website, specifically the color layout. I normally enjoy lighter colored web pages for easier readability but since this page uses various item links (thanks to www.wowhead.com) from World of Warcraft they ended up looking horrible on a white background.
