Treachery on Vent: Infiltrating Enemy Tactics
Posted by pixiestixy on Wednesday, November 4th, 2009 - 23 Comments
A couple nights ago, I was running Wintergrasp on my server, Khaz Modan, and lamenting the fact that all day the Horde had been unsuccessful at capturing the contested zone. Finally in one raid group, someone offered up their ventrilo server for everyone to use so we could better coordinate our efforts. It sounded like a ... More

It’s that time again! The patch notes of have been updated, and even though the PTR servers are down for the moment, I’m sure it won’t be too long before we can get our hands on it. In addition to the usual round of class changes, there are two things worth paying attention to in ... More

Posted by Amatera on Tuesday, October 20th, 2009 - 9 Comments
These updates are coming fast and 3.3’s testing phase is just flying by, isn’t it? The latest round of changes isn’t terribly extensive, which makes me think that, barring any last minute problems, that the development team has most of the classes right where they want them for the time being.

Don’t fret, though! We can still glean some cursory information on a new Vault of Archavon encounter, Toravon ... More

Why Do We Have Cross Faction Nameplates?
Posted by iTZKooPA on Thursday, September 17th, 2009 - 9 Comments
After slightly redeeming myself in raiding last night - assuming you consider Vault of Archavon raiding - I was able to participate in my first Wintergrasp in a long time. The battle was nothing special - Alliance fell apart and lost, shocking - but my main mode of defense made me realize something. Why the ... More
