Druid Form Skins Incoming

You may not care if you’re not a druid, but watching the same old forms for years without any improvements is quite dull. We have some great looking item sets, yet we all look exactly the same while shapeshifted. I realize it would be nearly impossible to make items show in forms - that’s a [...]


WotLK Beta Patch Notes - Warlock

If you haven’t heard, Wrath Beta invitations are being sent, NDA is lifted, the forums are now online and patch notes are posted everywhere - now even here.

Runes have a 10 second separate cooldown
Army of the Undead [...]


Tier 7 & Death Knight in Action

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 S4 sets look like.
There’s a video available here so you can check the sets live, and a few images on Wikidot so go check it out. Despite warlocks wearing what looks [...]


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 [...]


Frostmourne Hungers

##NOLIGHTBOX##Partnered with Epic Weapons, Blizzard released a limited edition replica of Frostmourne, a sword wielded by Arthas in Warcraft III.
