Turpster’s Dingstravaganza

Mark Turpin “Turpster” from Massively goes for the final ding!


Arena Season 4 Announced

We’re currently planning to end the third Arena season and begin Arena Season 4 on June 24, 2008, or June 25th for those in EU.


Tier 7 & Death Knight in Action

Seems you’re new here! If you like this site and don’t want to refresh it like a madman, consider subscribing to the RSS feed to get updates delivered to you. Learn more…I guess they weren’t lying when they said they were working on WotLK sets, so I’ll forget for the moment how awful most of [...]


WotLK Warlock Talents and Spells

There’s no point posting opinions since most of the spells and numbers will be quite different, probably as soon as beta starts.
You can check the preview of warlock talent trees here (note the Soul Link in tier 3 :O ).
Some stuff looks pretty interesting, especially the much needed defense vs. melee (Metamorphosis), although 360% armor [...]


New Medallion

##NOLIGHTBOX##
Is it my imagination or is Blizzard just trying to come up with more reasons to grind honor?
This baby will cost us 40,000 honor points for a whooping amount of 25 resilience. Another must-have for serious PvPers, but again, that’s going to be a boring grind again just like Battlemaster.
I’m guessing the trinket will be [...]

Frostmourne Hungers

##NOLIGHTBOX##Partnered with Epic Weapons, Blizzard released a limited edition replica of Frostmourne, a sword wielded by Arthas in Warcraft III.
The sword enabled him to defeat the wicked Dreadlord Mal’Ganis, but also cursed him so he became a Death Knight. But who cares anyway. If you want to read more lore check it out on wowinsider.
The [...]


Life Tap Changes Reverted

##NOLIGHTBOX##That’s right, the old Life Tap is back. I’ll sound like an ass now but I expected it, nobody can hate warlocks that much. LT will surely see some changes in the future, but nothing as drastic like now.
Hopefully the devs won’t put this crap back.


Epic Gems for Badges

##NOLIGHTBOX##
Finally! The patterns were already added to Shattered Sun rep vendors, and all that was missing were gems. These gems and recipes were for months a thorn in my jewelcrafter’s eye, and buying them from the auction house is painful even for my budget.
I’m sure there’s a lot of guilds out there unhappy about this, [...]


New Class Changes in 2.4

##NOLIGHTBOX##It looks like those fake 2.4 patch notes weren’t completely fake after all.
Here’s the recent class changes from mmo-champion:
Druid

Lifebloom healing coefficient has been reduced.
Many shapeshift form tooltips have been updated to be consistent with each other.
Nurturing Instinct increases your healing spells by up to 50/100% of your Agility, and increases healing done to you [...]
