Why is the Lich King’s voice so meh   Oh yes, Arthas was very strong. But in brute strength alone. It was proven, namely by his own eventual downfall, that he could be manipulated and out-maneuvered easily by playing to his weaknesses; his own fear and arrogance. It could stand to reason that despite the Lich King being so drastically weakened by Illidan’s attack, that he used that very attack as a means of getting what he always wanted–a new host. I took the last cinematic in TFT as Arthas mulling over all of his failures as a Paladin, a Prince, and a human being, and looking upon the choice he made, perhaps decided there was no point in even fighting. Perhaps, that Ner’zhul silenced the memories and funneled his fleeting need for purpose into, “Hey, can I use your skull for a bedroom? kthx” But maybe I’m just giving Arthas too much credit. I still prefer Arthas’ voice for the role, and given that the Lich King VA is almost purely Ner’zhul at this point, it makes me wonder why Arthas voiced over that trailer to begin with. From a lore/theorycraft standpoint, it only reinforces the notion that when Ner’zhul and

Hair cut – They are not real, right? I tried the hair cut system in Undercity last weeks. When I first tried it, I laughed out loud at how silly I looked with those silly haircuts they offered us for testing the new Barber shop.   I mean, in my mind it was SO obvious that those haircuts are not the actual real ones we will get in the live servers once the patch and the expansion go out. They are so ugly, so “roughly” designed, that they cant be the official ones they were working on in the last months. They look like if someone said “Oh, we forgot the haircuts!! Fast, let just dump something here…”   So, like I said, I didnt even let a coments about the haircuts since they were, so obviously in my mind, not the real ones to comes in the Live server….   But…. I just want to be sure here… I am right, right? They are not for real? I mean, we will not have a Death Knight with amazing spell effects and some haircuts anyone with no knowledge could create using the Paint program in Windows?   Right?

Make them go away   I believe that any inventory system that encourages mules to exist for any reason has a problem with the fundamental design.   Inventory has gotten a good face lift, but theres still more to be done to make mules completely vanish.   So – what would you propose as a solution?   Having higher stack numbers on items such as cloth, ore, bars of metal, gems…?   Less suits of armor for specific occasions – like having one chromatic resistance set instead of a full set of frost resist armor, arcane resist armor, fire resist armor, nature resist armor, shadow resist armor…   Perhaps having consumables stack higher? Or a specific belt type of structure that holds a certain amount of potion stacks, like in Diablo 2?   Maybe having an area like the keyring for trinkets? As it stands, each trinket in your inventory takes up the same amount of space as Jihn’Rokh, The Great Apocalypse, which seems silly. Possibly extend the idea to rings and amulets/necklaces as well?   Maybe a method to burn tradegoods that often end up on mules, other than the auction house – turning in stacks of things for reputation, badges, rewards,

leveling   now, ill be the first to say, this is one aspect i was never good at in the game. i didnt instance much, i didnt have the best gear, right now im working off of some pvp tier 1 set and some pve stuff. ive spent the first few days running around northrend checking out the lay of the land, screen shotting the hell out of the place, yada yada, so i didnt take the time to level. but is it just me, or is it a pain in the royal keister (sp?) to get to 71? maybe im just out of the leveling groove, maybe its me, maybe i dont have the attention span to actually focus on leveling, maybe its my spec/class, but ive noticed its a tad   now, i dont wanna hear how youve managed to get to 77 in 5 hours because youve spent 24/7 on the damn game, and i dont care that you hit 77 on your deathknight in a week, and i dont care that your t6 warrior/hunter/paladin/whatever hit 77 in less than a day, or that your merciless gladiator rogue hit 77 and got some pvp in, no, dont care. i wont even look at yer post. i wanna hear about the guys that actually HAVE troubles/suggestions/ideas.

Around Azeroth: Don’t turn around   Okay, do you guys know the strategy for this boss? No? Okay. Well, what’s the ugliest thing you can think of? No, not a male draenei in a dress. Very funny, Kirby. It’s this dude — a huge, smelly pit lord. Strutting around with some huge blades attached to his arms, like we all don’t know what he’s compensating for. And those armored codpieces? I mean, please. Those only belong at the Met. Hey … why are you all looking behind me and readying your fireballs? (Thanks to Natasi of <Pantheon> on Steamwheedle Cartel for the pic!) Do you have any unusual World of Warcraft images that are just collecting dust in your screenshots folder? We’d love to see it on Around Azeroth! Sharing your screenshot is as simple as e-mailing  with a copy of your shot and a brief explanation of the scene. You could be featured here next! Remember to include your player name, server and/or guild if you want it mentioned. We strongly prefer full screen shots without the UI showing — use alt-Z to remove it. Please, no more battleground scoreboards.

 The Care and Feeding of Warriors: A pile of my enemies’ bodies   Welcome back to The Care and Feeding of Warriors. The carnage you see above you is the entire Scarlet Monastery Cathedral (and all the mobs before it, too!) except for the ones who died before we got this far. (I stole this idea shamelessly from a commenter named Brian Arnold.The video he linked is pretty much exactly how it went down for me.) Damage Shield, you complete me. Well, you and Shockwave, and the new limitless target Thunder Clap. This is my build: I skipped over Anticipation because, while an excellent talent, I want to be hit instead of dodged. I’ll pick it back up again once we start leveling. A couple of fun screenshots from my character panel:   This is my admittedly gimmicky shield block value set. Pretty much every piece on it has block or str, I hover at around 16000 health in it. What I find really fun (and what allowed me to pull the entire Cath as well as both bosses onto myself) was this next trick. Nothing up my sleeve but Shield Block.   Yes, for ten seconds, you can have double your normal block value and block every single attack that will possibly land. (Well, not magic,

Spell pushback deemed harmful   I certainly think there needs to be a limit on the amount of knockback possible. While I don’t think the mechanic itself is a bad one. I do think that there needs to be a limit on it. While facing slower melee classes it doesn’t present such a major problem. However, when facing classes with very quick attacks it definitely presents a problem which I don’t think was actually intended by the developers.   This is one reason that Pre-BC when SM/Ruin for a Warlock was considered a decent spec, it changed in Outland. Anything with a cast time is a waste of possible DPS unless you have someone locked down for certain. It’s the reason for SL/SL specs, it’s the reason why some mages are using Arcane Missles and Frost Specs to hold their opponents down. It’s also the reason Druids use HoT’s and why HoT’s are slowly spreading to all classes. Don’t work around the problem, try to fix the problem. That’s just my opinion. Hope no one finds it too silly haha.

Character Update Process? “You cannot log in until the character update process you recently initiated is complete.”   This is the message I get when I try to log in my only character on this Beta server. In an attempt to fix the problem I tried to delete this character and planned on re-copying her. After typing in “DELETE”, I got the same exact error message. It’s been a while since my install and nothing has changed.   (She was copied originally for the Alpha testing and was automatically sent to the Beta.)   Thanks for any advice.

Shifting Perspectives: Dude, where’s my armor?   Every Tuesday, Shifting Perspectives explores issues affecting druids and those who group with them. This week John Patricelli, the Big Bear Butt Blogger, takes a brief look at the changes to Feral Bear armor in the upcoming Patch 3.0. Welcome back, my furry, feathery and barky brothers and sisters! Last week, I did a brief rundown of the many ways the Feral Druid mechanics are going to change in Patch 3.0 and Wrath of the Lich King. This week, I’m going to touch briefly on the changes to tanking changes and bear armor in general, and how they may change the way we view our class. Oh, and by the way… finding a picture of a slightly stoned-looking bear wasn’t as easy as I expected. The lengths I’ll go to for a joke! A little recap Before we talk about what the changes may mean, let’s lay down what we’re talking about. I mentioned armor specifically, but really I’m going to be talking about changes to Damage Mitigation, Avoidance and Survivability. First, in the latest WotLK Beta build (9038) it is confirmed that Dire Bear Form has a decreased armor contribution from items, from 400%

BlizzCon 2008: WoW Insider’s second annual BlizzCon Reader Meetup   We had our second annual Reader Meetup last night here in Anaheim at The Lost Bar, and it was a blast. Tons of people showed up (maybe 200?), and every single reader we met was completely awesome. We introduced all of our bloggers (Adam Holisky, Daniel Whitcomb, Alex Ziebart, Krystalle Voecks, Elizabeth Harper, Dan O’Halloran, and myself were all there), we drank plenty of libations (the bartender, unfortunately, wasn’t moving as fast as we would have liked), and we gave away a bunch of swag, to all kinds of readers, for everything from answering trivia questions to just saying hi. The Horde, I have to say, seemed to have the higher population, but Alliance made a good showing as well. And a few full guilds came out to see us: shoutouts to Thee Unforgiven on Destromath (the good folks above), Keine Neuen on Malganis, and Dread Pirates on Blackrock, not to mention all of the other awesome readers and guilds that stopped by. They’re all in our gallery below — thanks to everyone who came out for making it such a great time.
