WoW Moviewatch: Inventing Swear Words 4
Today’s WoW Moviewatch is a tiny indulgence for me. If you’ve not heard, I got married yesterday. (Yesterday as of the time this post was published.) I share everything in my life with my beloved bride, even WoW machinima. The videos created by the machinima community are wonderful things to watch as a couple. Like so many other things, however, she needed a gateway introduction to machinima. That intro came in the form of the Oxhorn Medley.
The High Inquisitor: Why Doesn’t Azeroth have Changing Seasons?
…But wait! The different zones of Azeroth remain basically the same year-round. Northrend is a chilly place no matter what time of year, seemingly stuck in a perpetual winter. And Durotar… well, have you ever seen snow there, or anywhere else that it doesn’t fall regularly? What is going on with the seasons of Azeroth!?

Welcom to Flecha Técnica a Spanish Marksman hunter blog
Okay, so this post is going to be short and a bit strange. Seems I actually have some Spanish readers from time to time. I got linked over at Flecha Técnica, Nuevas (y viejas) noticas sobre cazadores (Arrow Technical, New (and old) notices about hunters).
The post that brought them to my attenton was Guía: Cazador Puntería, Parche 3.3.0 (Guide: Hunter Marksmanship, Patch 3.3.0) has some pretty good information. I only skimmed through it but hope to read it in more detail
Alt / Casual gear list in 3.3 for Rogues
This is a simple list for Rogues on how not to raid in 3.3 but still enjoy the PvE experience and get some decent gear. If like me you’re not a fan of raiding every single night or just like to relax a bit more (my guild luckily is very accomodating for this) then here’s a list of gear that you can get without popping your cash on flasks, pots and fish feasts.
One of my favorite songs. I first heard the Ufo version of it, “Alone again, or” back in college, one of my roommates had the lp, and I loved it. I didn’t know at the time that it was apparently originally done by a group called Love in 1967. The Calexico cover of it, video embedded above, is actually very good as well.
The Dormitory: One mailbox does not make a city.
… a menace rose up from the bowels of the earth and invaded Gnomergan… The surviving Gnomes fled to the safety of the Dwarven stronghold, Ironforge. There they remained devising strategies to retake their city.
If you’ve ever started a Gnome and listened to the voice over, you’ve probably wondered why a few of the elites in Ironforge just walk down the road and retake the goddamn city?
There must be some other reason why the Gnomes still choose to hang out in Tinker Town in Ironforge. I believe the reason is simple: They don’t really want it back. And why would they? The Domitory must be the most uninhabitable living quarters I’ve ever seen.
Can you heal lowbie instances as an Enhancement Shaman?
Healing Gnomergedan as an Enhancement Shaman
Since creating my Enhancment Shaman I’ve wondered if I could heal lowbie instances with her. I’ve played numerous healers within World of Warcraft. I really enjoy healing.
I had a good idea that she could based on the damage she’s seen other healers healing in the instances she’s been part of, but outside of healing when AOE damage got a little crazy my Enhancement Shaman never stepped into the healing role. That is until this morning
I’ve played wow for over 3 years.
I’ve used any number of addons that make my wow and raiding experiences easier, more fun, and just plain higher quality.
I’ve never messed with the basic stock UI (user interface).
Until now.
In the past, I saw UIs that looked nice or organized things well, but I found it too much of a hassle to implement. Other addons could be dropped into the addon folder, but most UIs had to be added by also messing with other, scary folders like the wtf and settings folders…. don’t make me do it! In addition, for some reason I never found one that looked just perfect for me, just like poor Goldilocks.
Gordon responds to the previous post:
Secondly, I’d like defined “harder” in this context. I think leveling a healer or a tank (with that spec) is tougher and more time consuming than leveling a DPS class. Yes, tanks could level as a DPS spec but then would suffer the consequences in their grouping ability and/or be forced to pay the 1,000g to allow for dual speccing. DPS classes don’t face this obstacole.
I disagree with this. First, you could always tank and heal normal instances regardless of what spec you have. The base class always includes the necessary tools to heal and tank. Back in 2008, I wrote a post about Retribution Tanking for WotLK normal dungeons. It’s really only when you hit end-game heroics and raids that you need to spec for your role.
Friday Five: 5 Things I’d Like to Accomplish Over This Long MLK Weekend
- Determine which — if any — of the shiny new armory feeds I want to add to my blog template. 3-D SP model would be nice, yes?
Wrathy has a really nice post up on his blog that I read much earlier in the morning while I was at work on The Power of Knowledge and I couldn’t agree more as well. I thought its a great post to not miss and link to if you never been over to his blog and you really should go there as well. He really writes good stuff and other bloggers who have more time do write stuff worth reading as well
