Yet Another Warlock Nerf

General The point is to keep arenas simple, while leaving room to innovate. Stream lost at this point, will update later. The battleground reporting system is being tuned to let player police themselves easier. A spectator mode is planned. There are no new racial abilities to to be added. PvP rewards won’t be changed. Arenas There’s 2 new arenas, Dalaran and Orgrimmar. Keep the [...]

Taurack has some excellent points in his why you should PvP post, which I really recommend reading. His main point is, even if you’re a dedicated raider, you should do battlegrounds from time to time, and for the most part I agree. The problem with 90% of PvPers is that they dont know how to PvE; they [...]

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.

Many players think the new sets look bad, but I kinda like it. Hunter’s really look like clowns though, but that’s what they always look like after trying to kill me. What I hate is the fact they are basically three sets which are just recolored a bit, and the lack of imagination is just [...]

##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 [...]

##NOLIGHTBOX## The new Season 4 items will have the below personal and team arena rating requirements: Shoulders: 2200 Weapon: 2050 Head: 1700 Chest: 1600 Legs: 1550 Gloves: none Off-hand: none In addition, some of the Season 4 quality items that will be purchasable with honor will also carry a personal and team arena rating requirement: Boots: 1700 Ring: 1650 Bracers: 1575 Belt: none Necklace: none Trinket: none No more 10 games [...]

Proximo is an arena unit frame which will display your enemies health and mana bars, allow you to target them, and a number of additional goodies. If you missed my review of Proximo, I suggest you do it now. It’s recently been updated to include some new features: race icons, buff & debuff tracking (I still [...]

##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 [...]

##NOLIGHTBOX##It seems warlock and hunter pets are currently not scaling with their master’s stats anymore. The only stats which they get are spell damage, intellect and armor, but no stamina or attack power. What this means, other than being the biggest warlock nerf ever, is that your Felhunter will have about 3000 health, which will make [...]

##NOLIGHTBOX##First, they added PvP cloaks which you can buy for 60 Badges of Justice (BoJ). Then there’s items like Hex Shrunken Head, Warglaives of Azzinoth, Berserkers Call and many more which are far better for PvP then some Shankers or Slicers. Tidewalker in SSC drops this ring which is pretty good actually; here’s one from [...]
