World of Warcraft: Managing and Leveling Multiple Alts in Mist of Pandaria
Quite often when you read the forums you’ll hear how many people have felt that Mist of Pandaria has not been alt friendly. The grind in this expansion at the start has been quite harsh with the reputation, low valor points and ungenerous loot system in place. Not to mention the extremely tedious questing required…

World of Warcraft: Getting More Frustrated with Saurfang Oceanic Server
When I originally started on Saurfang Oceanic, my intent was to play with a former colleague. I never saw him once on the server and he ended up quitting once his job situation was settled. So I ended up getting stuck more or less on the server. However, it was a PVE server and something…

World of Warcraft: The Legendary Waste (of a Gem), Problems with LFR Drops and Ideas for Improvement
With Patch 5.2 on the horizons, I ended up upgrading my Paladin’s two handed sword Starshatter using my Valor Points. I had been hesitating up until this point because I had hoped that I would have acquired the Sha Touched axe in LFR. Having run Sha of Fear around 13 times on my Paladin, I…

World of Warcraft: Ghostcrawler, Gym Membership, Subscription and Theories
I read a very disturbing post on Wowhead which described Ghostcrawler’s theory on the speed of the game, gym memberships and content: The problem is the pace that players used to play to be able to keep up is not even close to current requirement Used to from when? Cataclysm didn’t ask players to play…

World of Warcraft: Thoughts on Making Gold in Mist of Pandaria
There’s numerous guides on making gold in World of Warcraft, most of them involve heavy amounts of farming. While having gold in the game is critical to performance, I view it as a residual of what you do in the game as opposed to a focus. As a result, I tend to not be bothered…
