As a blogger who happens to play a rogue, it would be remiss of me to not contribute to this week’s Blog Azeroth Shared Topic: Surviving PVE as a Melee DPS. My rogue is my main, and always will be (unless Blizzard allows us to transfer over all our pets, mounts, achievements, etc to another toon). [...]
A Step Back In Time
The weekend was filled with forgotten villains, demons, phoenix, and blood elves. The fierce battle against the Scourge was put on hold while I traveled back to the Outlands. On Friday, I ventured into Tempest Keep with some friends in attempt to defeat Kael’thas. We had 12ish level 80s that gathered together, most who had [...]
A PUG for Your PUG
I was sitting around in Dalaran yesterday, flipping through the achievements pane when I noticed that a particular achievement was 99/100. I cheerfully put myself into the queue, and waited. And waited. By the time I got into an instance it was looking tight – would I finish in time to leave for our dinner [...]
Failing Words
Words are just failing me this week, so I thought I would share some links to some of the incredible posts I’ve read recently. Tami Moore’s guest post about writing over at Too Many Annas was inspirational, down to earth, and a fun read. Tami is always full of awesome, but this post really struck me [...]
Apparently I Have Trouble Making Up My Mind
So… you know how I wrote about learning to tank on my baby paladin, and then a few days later gave up due to the poisonous jerks I encountered in LFG? Well it turns out that I’m a bit of a flip-flopper. M paladin is still a tank. I’ve thought things over for the past [...]
On My Way to Loremaster
As I’ve mentioned before, I’m one of those crazy people who thinks that the Loremaster achievement is a good idea. Achievements in general really appeal to me. I’m a completionist at heart, and in WOW it is nearly impossible to achieve “100% complete”. The achievement system gives me manageable goals, and shows me my progress. [...]
A PSA to All DeathKnoobs…
Please, please don’t use Army of the Dead against dragons or other bosses on whom positioning is important!! I know this is old news, but apparently not everyone remembers it. Either that or they are just asshats who think its funny as Cyanigosa flips around in a circle as if she’s a dog chasing her [...]
We Didn't Start the Fire
I have a song stuck in my head now…*sigh*. Starting the Fire The blog community has been in a bit of an uproar ever since Gordon from We Fly Spitfires wrote a guest post for World of Matticus about the idea that healing and tanking should garner greater rewards. I don’t think Gordon quite knew what [...]
A Failed Experiment
I wrote last week about how I was going to try leveling my paladin as prot. This didn’t last very long, sadly. I admit defeat. The mechanics of tanking are still interesting to me, and I’m a little disappointed that things didn’t work out. My problem isn’t tanking itself, but what you have to put [...]
I’m A Sucker For Pretty Things
I finally had the chance to sit down and read through the pages of the first issue of the WOW magazine. I thought I would share some of my thoughts and impressions in case any of you out there are interested in getting a subscription in the future, or are waiting impatiently for your copy [...]
