Patch 3.0.2 is close on the horizon - if it’s not here within the next couple of weeks I’ll be surprised - and your UI is going to break. That’s right, all those lovely addons you use are going to stop working!
…well, most of them will.
And the big addon sites are always hammered on Patch [...]

Larisa of the Pink Pigtail Inn posted some entertaining stories today, recounting times when she found out she “had it all wrong”.
I never committed any of the (very entertaining!) faux pas on Larisa’s list, but I made plenty of my own - and I wasn’t even new to MMOs!
For instance, a friend who shall remain [...]

This is the second of a two-part guide to Inscription, the new tradeskill being introduced in Wrath of the Lich King.
Last Update: 10 October; WotLK beta build 9056.

Eyonix has confirmed that the “new Honor items” are cloaks and trinkets, upgrades over the current cloaks and trinkets but not huge ones.

So, I’m sitting in Stormwind on the 3.0.2 PTR server, relearning Inscription for my Inscription levelling guide, and I’m idly watching trade chat go by.

(In other news, yes, this means the Inscription [...]

And in addition, it’s a bit speculative because it’s discussing things that may still be tweaked, nerfed, buffed, folded, spindled, mutilated, digested, adjusted, rejected, abolished, emasculated, disembowelled, inflated or otherwise amended. This is a beta, after all.

There’s been a lot of talk around the [...]

Well, that was fantastic fun :)
I’m still doing Warsong Gulch at the moment, because I need 90 tokens - 30 for the Black War Elekk and 60 for the tabard - and I’ve got about 20. Oh, and rep… slowly, slowly.
My last game:

If more battlegrounds were like that, I could really enjoy them - an [...]

So, Eyonix announced today that Honor points and Marks of Honor will be wiped clean when WotLK goes live. As you can imagine, the tears are deep enough to drown in - the resulting thread is up to 48 pages already - but Eyonix does offer a small consolation:
For those with unspent honor points [...]

Dear Mister Direbrew,

Patch 3.0.2 is expected to herald the introduction of the new Achievement system, so for many of us it’s time to start planning ahead and working on Achievements for which we can get retrospective credit.
