  • World of Warcraft: Should We Have A New Race/Class in the Expansion?

    Mist of Pandaria gave us both a new race and class. It also increased the limit of characters to 11. As I am near completion in terms of leveling my monk, I have to ask the question whether or not introducing a new race/class in the upcoming expansion is worth it?

  • World of Warcraft: Playing the Windwalker Monk

    I leveled my pandaren monk from 71-80 today. It took a fair amount of time but at the same time the entire episode felt quick. It might take me anywhere between a week or two to get him to 90. However, I wanted to share my thoughts on this class thus far.

  • Baldur’s Gate 2: NPC Party Compositions

    I prefer multi-player play more than the single player option just because of being able to have the ability to customize my party, even if i merely choose to create a single character. However, after writing a few lengthy articles on customized party combinations, I decided to put some thoughts down on using a single…

  • Baldur’s Gate 2: Dual Class and Multi-Class Modification Wishes

    After the latest play through of Baldur’s Gate 2 and from writing my previous article on classes and party combinations, one thing I’ve come to realize is that you’re still somewhat limited on a few possibilities. Of course, the game introduces limits to provide a sense of balance but the balance introduced in Baldur’s Gate…

  • Baldur’s Gate 2: More Class/Party Discussion

    I finished Shadows of Amn once again yesterday and began Throne of Bhaal but have made little progress thus far. The play through on my party consisted of a human kensai/mage, human undead hunter, half-elf ranger/cleric, Jaehira (half-elf fighter/druid), human wizard slayer/thief and elf fighter/mage. Mostly, I just powered my way through and did most…

  • World of Warcraft: Project 5.4 ilvl 500 Complete, Playing with Elemental Shaman

    I managed to finally hit an average ilvl of 500+ on all my main toons. In turn, my push to gear will slow down a bit. Of course, I still would like to get better gear for everyone but I feel less pressured to make such a huge push on all my toons since they’re…

  • World of Warcraft: Just Kill Boomkins Already

    I long stopped playing my druid as a Balance spec because she would get destroyed solo’ing and her single target damage was terrible. The only two saving graces were AoE situations where she could channel hurricane or multi-dotting where you would see 3+ foes up. I’m not a PVPer so I cannot tell you whether…

  • World of Warcraft: The Pros and Cons of Alt-A-Holicism

    As someone who has played RPGs for a long time, I’m someone who enjoys trying out different classes to see the difference in game play. In World of Warcraft, they call my style of play Alt-A-Holicism. Maybe some people stigmatize the idea of playing numerous alts, but it has its share of benefits as well…

  • World of Warcraft: Recent Tank Shortage in LFG/LFR?

    There’s an interesting hot topic on the Blizzard forums discussing how people are experiencing a general tank shortage in LFG/LFR. The real question is whether or not this is a current phenomenon or if this has been going on for some time.

  • World of Warcraft: Class Change Thoughts

    On the topic of class changes, I decided to write a post about somethings I wish were changed with classes/specs.
