  • World of Warcraft: More Progress in Patch 5.3 for Me

    The past week or so I’ve been really hitting LFR and certain daily hubs hard to boost my toons as much as possible. I started to farm Throne of Thunder parts 1 and 2 now that I’ve become quite comfortable with the fights. Part 3 I’ve only done twice and still find it a little…

  • World of Warcraft: Best Starting Class/Role

    World of Warcraft certainly has changed since I first started. The game has become a hundred times simpler in terms of all the different aspects you had to manage about your character. Also, questing and dealing with most mobs are no longer as problematic because of the clean up of old areas and making mobs…

  • World of Warcraft: Boss Mechanics, Farming and LFR

    When patch 5.2 hit, I felt that the game went in the wrong direction, hence why I quit for a bit. One thing I noticed about the fights were the general increasing complexity. While making fights more interesting can be a good thing, I think the developers are wrong because they don’t really understand their…

  • World of Warcraft: Worst Zones

    I saw a thread on the World of Warcraft forums discussing the top 5 worst zones. I am going to list out my worst zones here but this is more for leveling than anything else: Badlands – When they re-did this zone, I was somewhat excited because there wasn’t a lot of quests here originally.…

  • World of Warcraft: Has LFR Ruined Raiding?

    Over on the World of Warcraft forums, there’s a bunch of threads talking about how LFR has ruined raiding. While LFR has its share of problems, I feel that the essence that people believe which is raiding has not been ruined by LFR. There are two aspects I think people refer to when it comes…

  • World of Warcraft: What and When to Use Voidbinders (Item Upgrades)

    With the cost of valor points coming down in patch 5.3 for upgrading items using Voidbinders, you might ask yourself, “Should I start upgrading my items? And if so which ones?” This blog attempts to address some of those questions. One thing I noticed with regards to Mist of Pandaria in its current state is…

  • World of Warcraft: Patch 5.3 Experiences Thus Far

    Okay, I got bored after finishing my Prometheus 2 script so I’m back to playing World of Warcraft slightly ahead of schedule. Patch 5.3 has a bunch of goodies mostly along the lines of loot and nerfed XP so I didn’t really want to miss out too much. So far as a casual player, I’ve…

  • World of Warcraft: 1.3 Million Subscribers Down

    That’s a pretty large number and is comparable to the population of Burning Crusade, except that it’s getting lower. The two main things people seem to point to are game age and Asia. However, I know that saying the game’s age is a common issue, but I feel that it’s too high level and generic…

  • World of Warcraft: First Patch 5.3 Official Notes Released (PTR)

    Patch 5.3 looks to be more of a major game issues fix with some content oriented elements thrown in. I already addressed the earlier noted valor/justice point upgrade system returning. From a gearing point of view, the two biggest things that impact myself are: Addressing bad luck streaks for re-rolls. This is HUGE for me.…

  • World of Warcraft: Patch 5.3 Voidbinders/Item Upgrades Make A Comeback and Cutting Edge Gaming

    Outside of the new game, Blizzard announced that the Voidbinders/Item Upgrade venders will make a comeback in patch 5.3. The chief difference will be the massive reduction in cost for both valor points and justice points upgrades. Valor upgrades will cost 250 per 4 item levels for a total of an 8 item level upgrade…
