PTR 3.3: Patch Notes Update, New Map/Quest System Implemented
Posted by Amatera on Friday, November 6th, 2009 - 4 Comments
New build, new stuff! Two things of especially interesting note this time around: if you’re still running Naxxramas these days, then it’s about to get a little bit easier. Are you tired of having to run through the entire dungeon just to unlock the fight with Sapphiron? Well, fret no longer! Blizzard has heard your ... More
The Back-and-Forth Saga of a 3.3 Vanish Fix
Posted by pixiestixy on Tuesday, October 27th, 2009 - 9 Comments
Love ‘em or hate ‘em, rogues have got to be sneaky. It’s a good part of what defines the class, allows them, as leather-wearers, to deal melee dps without instant death, and sets them apart from other DPSers. So it’s no huge surprise that Vanish, one of the key skills that rounds out that specialty, ... More

Sorry, ladies and germs! It’s been a bit of a long weekend for me, so I haven’t been able to get to this any sooner, but a new build of 3.3 (10676, to be specific) was pushed onto the Test Realms on Friday. We’re far and away from the major updates of the early iterations. ... More
3.3: New Official Tier 10 Previews
Posted by Amatera on Sunday, October 25th, 2009 - 17 Comments
Not too long ago, we told you that Blizzard was planning on previewing the new tier of class armor on their very own website. They kicked off their Tier 10 catalog earlier in the month by showing off gear for the Death Knight, Druid, Hunter, and Warrior classes, presumably in an attempt to control the ... More
Trial Of The Crusader Is Making Me Poor!
Posted by Amatera on Thursday, October 15th, 2009 - 18 Comments
I’ll tell you right off the bat that I’m not much of an economist. I don’t play the Auction House, I don’t farm for things to sell, and I only do dailies on occasion (usually if I’m determined to raise my reputation with a certain faction). With the guild vault taking care of most of ... More
PTR 3.3: Tier 10 and Set Bonuses Revealed
Posted by Amatera on Thursday, October 8th, 2009 - 33 Comments
With a fresh build of 3.3 on the test realms, that means some brand spanking new information is coming down the pipe. First off, perhaps in an effort to stave off would-be data-miners, Blizzard is starting to show off all the near Tier 10 armor pieces on their very own preview site. So far, you ... More

It seems as though the patch notes for 3.3 have been updated once again, meaning that a new build on the PTR should hit sometime within the next couple of days. Here’s what’s new: General The existing /welcome emote now greets/welcomes targets (character says “hello”), while the new /yw is for saying “you’re welcome.” Many of the tail ... More
iTZKooPA’s Add-Ons (And The War With Them)
Posted by iTZKooPA on Thursday, October 1st, 2009 - 15 Comments
Major combat operations in /World of Warcraft have ended. By dedicating a healthy bit of time before bed, and using my own advice, I was able overcome the horrible lag I was experiencing in all of my World of Warcraft endeavors. No more 30% drops in framerates, lost DPS or accidental dives off cliffs to ... More
Leeeeeeeeeeeeeroy!!! 15k DPS?!!
Posted by pixiestixy on Tuesday, September 29th, 2009 - 11 Comments
After another drunken night of slaughtering Coren Direbrew repeatedly for his phat lootz and Brewfest tokenz, I thought it was time for something a little different. Up in the higher reaches of Blackrock Mountain rests more fun to be had (and a bit of a confidence boost for us rogues) for anyone who hasn’t yet ... More
Memories of Onyxia: Back Into The Lair
Posted by Amatera on Thursday, September 24th, 2009 - 27 Comments
The first thing we did upon entering Onyxia’s Lair for the first time in several years was wipe. Foolishly, after pulling the first trash mob, the tank managed to grab the attention of a second. Having walked down the slope, and farther into the cave, this left him out of our healers’ line of sight. ... More
