Posted by iTZKooPA on Thursday, July 2nd, 2009 - 8 Comments

BlizzCon is slowly creeping up on us, and this year most people expect the company’s big announcement to be World of Warcraft-based.  With StarCraft 2 locked in for this year, and Diablo III looking like 2010, early 2011 is rip (if not late) for the third expansion to Azeroth.  As it stands now, people are ...

Blizz Responds to Faction Change Questions

Posted by pixiestixy on Thursday, July 2nd, 2009 - 10 Comments

Well folks, it looks like we have some, but definitely not all the answers regarding how the possibility of faction changes announced earlier this week could work. Wednesday, Blizzard blue poster Nethaera updated his original post on the subject with a few more details on the matter - probably because of the incredibly high number ... More

Posted by Juggynaut on Wednesday, July 1st, 2009 - 25 Comments

Recently our Mount Runs have been able to include my viewpoint thanks to the wonders of screen capture software. A few of you who are following the Project Lore twitter have also caught a couple of my live streams of Ulduar raids on Ustream (Another raid is scheduled for tonight at 7pm PST!). Some of ... More

Baby Murlocs: Arguably the Cutest Creatures Ever

Posted by pixiestixy on Wednesday, July 1st, 2009 - 12 Comments

I’ve always thought that murlocs have an odd cuteness to them (despite that crazy grrlrgglglg!!  noise they make - actually, maybe because of it!). But on the cuteness scale, nothing compares to murloc babies. As I headed back to Borean Tundra after questing through Zul’Drak and still not dinging level 77, I joined the ranks ... More

Fond Memories: The Gates (And Raids) of Ahn’Qiraj

Posted by iTZKooPA on Wednesday, July 1st, 2009 - 30 Comments

One of the coolest things of vanilla WoW was the release of the first Old God’s lair, Ahn’Qiraj.  Blizzard made a huge deal of the event, going so far as to completely re-design an original zone (it was basically unused at release).  The developers added lore, additional factions for rep grinds, more lore, not one, ...

It’s easy to become insulated when you write for a subject-specific site like Project Lore, surrounded by like-minded colleagues and readers whose clear interest in the topics at hand is evidenced through repeated page views and lengthy comment sections. But I have, and still do, inhabit other realms of the internet, many of which I’ve ... More

Creating a Spectacle in WoW

A while back I told you all about the jump into multi-boxing which I’ve been observing second-hand through my husband’s toons. He’s been leveling up two hunters through recruit-a-friend: one on his usual account and another on the new account. I helped out a bit in the beginning, then we both cut back on the ... More

Exodus Suspended, Oh My!

Posted by iTZKooPA on Tuesday, June 30th, 2009 - 25 Comments

I don’t know about you guys but even though I am a far cry from the hardcore raiding base, I still live through them vicariously.  I follow the MMO-Champion’s Hall of Fame, I check up on all the “top guild” websites here and there, and I even report about the major events in the top ... More

Too Soon for a New Tier?

Posted by Bastosa on Tuesday, June 30th, 2009 - 31 Comments

As more and more information comes out of the PTR, its pretty hard to not pay attention to it. I am personally getting pumped for all the great new content Blizzard is getting ready for us. As I’m pretty sure most of you have noticed, the new loot we will be able to earn is amazing. ... More
