The changing face of grinding

Posted in Grinding, Misc WoW, tagged , on September 10, 2009 | 12 Comments »

Rhii is going to tell us about how grinding is farming, or is it farming is grinding, depending on your perspective. This promoted the thought about how much the grind has changed from Vanilla through to WoLK. One thing that needs to be clearly stated is that WoW has always been, and will probably always [...]

Why we must reclaim Gnomeregan

Posted in Gnomes, Misc WoW, tagged , on September 9, 2009 | 23 Comments »

It’s not why you think! It’s not to remove the dishonor of its occupation by filthy Troggs. It’s not to save our poor leprous cousins. It’s not to save the environment by stopping the seepage of radioactive wastes through the sewers of Azeroth. The Goblins are not the only small race to be subjugated by [...]

Solo class instances

Posted in Misc WoW, tagged on September 8, 2009 | 12 Comments »

Everyone likes to solo an instance. Some of us like to plough through a low level instance purely for the joy of decorating the floor with corpses, one-shotting Van Cleef or racing to the end of an instance in 10 minutes that used to take hours. Others like the challenge of taking on an instance [...]

Scott No Mates

Posted in Misc WoW on September 7, 2009 | 12 Comments »

When I was growing up, the kid by himself in the playground was nicknamed “Scott”. Because he’S got no mates. Gnomeggedon’s new nickname is Scott. I was the straw that broke the Friday night’s group back. TreeHuggerDave had gone. Our recently returned from 12 month hiatus Healadin has let his account lapse. I accepted I [...]

Emblems of Everything fail me

Posted in Misc WoW, tagged on September 4, 2009 | 19 Comments »

The recent 3.2 changes to Emblems acquisition have been a boon for most players. I think even those that opposed them on the basis of belittling their raiding gear achievement have relaxed, either appreciating their higher geared raid mates, or joining in on the emblem feast, gorging themselves to the fill with the gear or [...]

Where are the boot camps

Posted in Misc WoW, tagged on September 4, 2009 | 13 Comments »

Larisa wrote about how bad the Training Dummies are for, well, for training. To be honest I have always felt this. To me they were just Dr. Boom replacements, theory-crafting tools to allow questing players to complete their quests, while allowing theory crafters a range of new tools to hone their craft. Sure they aren’t [...]

Do you play your main?

Posted in Misc WoW, tagged on September 3, 2009 | 16 Comments »

Of course you play your main… Stupid question #327 from Gnomeaggedon. OK, let me rephrase that question… Do you play your original main? I don’t. My original main was a Tauren Hunter on a server far, far away. However two of my mates do play their original mains.

Your Toon’s Tombstome?

Posted in Misc WoW, tagged on September 2, 2009 | 16 Comments »

Here lies Gnomeaggedon. Oneshot by Jong (repeatedly) and loving it! There is that personal development/group bonding question that I can never find a real life answer for… When the day comes for the undertaker to inscribe your headstone, what is it that you want inscribed that describes the way you lived your life or the [...]

Oneshot!

Posted in Blogs, Misc WoW, tagged , on September 1, 2009 | 17 Comments »

Hands up if you’ve ever been oneshot! Come on, admit it… I expect every reader’s (except Jong of course, he does the one-shotting in this game) hand should be in the air right now. You, yes you! I don’t care if your boss is in the same room as you, put your hand up. No! [...]
