Cataclysm Shaman Power Auras I’ve updated my Power Aura configurations for the new expansion. Everyone has their own style of using auras, so what I have may not work for you, but you can at least apply the techniques. I generally use images that capture the “feel” of the ability for me rather than strictly [...]
Holiday Ramblings
I have a couple real posts lined up but I keep forgetting to take screenshots for them. Instead I’ll just ramble on about the events of the past week or so. I’ve gotten plenty of WOW time in. I worked from home for the first half of last week, so I was able to play [...]
Leveling With A Significant Other
Some people would give anything to have their significant other play WOW, to understand the strange virtual world that holds so much of their interest. I’m not going to go into how I feel about wives who constantly decry their husband’s gaming, because that is a whole other can of worms. What I am going [...]
Linear Gameplay
There has been a lot of discussion lately about Blizzard’s obvious move towards more linear questing in Cataclysm. I thought I would give my take on the issue based on what I’ve experienced so far.

Just as with my shaman gear list, there are a lot of caveats. This is NOT a BIS list. This is not even a BIS pre-raid list. It’s simply a variety of good options per slot to get you going. Check out this post on Elitist Jerks for Rogue stat weightings. I will include at [...]

Worgen Starting Area The first thing I did was the worgen starting area, as planned. I rolled my female worgen druid, named Kaeluna (I really like this name, it fits well [...]
Lions, Camels, Dragons (Oh My) Or… Cataclysm Mounts
Cataclysm adds a whole bunch of new mounts, from faction rep, dungeon drops, achievements and more. I’m a huge mount collector, so I thought that I would put together a reference guide. This doesn’t include any new TCG mounts or the new mounts for Draenei/Tauren Paladin.
Here It Comes, Ready Or Not
Shiny New Home I’m all moved in to my new home – I think I finally have things unpacked and stable. I know that when Cataclysm launches, my desire to muck around with the blog beyond just posting is going to be minimal. I hope that the feed-reader switch worked correctly (although there was a weird [...]
Caster Shaman Gear List
Note: If you’re already somewhat geared up and looking for epic pre-raid gear from 4.1, check out this post Before I begin let me give you the caveat that this is NOT a BIS list, or even a BIS pre-raid list. I haven’t done a ton of math or put this gear through spreadsheets. As [...]
