Typhoon Andrew asked, in a recent post, “what 5 abilities, spells, effects, or powers would you like in real life“?
Coming up with an answer is harder than it sounds! After much contemplation…
Cure Disease. The Paladin version, Cleanse, would be alright as well. Let’s face it; disease is a global problem, and the ability to cure [...]

This post is a revision of my previous Inscription Guide.
This is the first of a two-part guide to Inscription, the new tradeskill being introduced in Wrath of the Lich King. The second part will cover specific recipes, required mats, and a recommended path for levelling the skill as [...]

I just checked again, for the first time in a while, and I have [...]

Blizzard have announced that as of Patch 3.0.2, raid buffs will synergize very differently, to make raid rosters more versatile.

I hadn’t actually heard of Alltop until the WoW subsite launched and Matt posted about it, but now I’ve taken a look I like the concept. Alltop presents a selection of recent posts from a number of editor-selected blogs on an issue, allowing you to browse like you would at a magazine rack. It’s a [...]

I’ve been stockpiling herbs in preparation for picking up Inscription on Wrath Day (now, even sooner on Patch 3.0 Day).

I don’t know a single serious long-time WoW player who doesn’t have bank and bag space woes, at least on their main. That goes double if you’re a hybrid searching for bank space for your healing, tanking, dps, pvp, regen, stam, threat and resist sets.
