World of Warcraft: Last Stand of the Zandalari LFR Experience
Just got done with the latest LFR wing for the new Throne of Thunder raid. Immediately, after entering people started dying. I couldn’t tell if I entered in the middle, end or what. Fortunately, I started from the beginning because I would’ve gotten really pissed in having to wait another 40+ minutes. For my first…

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: 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…
