Shared Topic: "What I Will be Doing..."
2009-08-26
Oh heyo, I like shared blog topics; They are fun to participate in and read. So this week's topic over at Blog Azeroth is "What will I be doing (when WotLK goes live)" We should all have a better idea about what to expect on expansion day from the BC release. I wonder how my experience will differ this time around. Specifically, how it will differ not being in the expansion beta.?
I will be refreshing the UPS shipping page every 5-minutes all day at work unless I decide to attend a midnight launch event. I doubt that I will d...

World Of Warcraft Add-ons: Utilities To Help World Of Warcraft Players
2009-08-13
This article is originated from www.brighthub.com. World of Warcraft is the world's most popular massively multiplayer role-playing game, with a player population the size of a small country. Among its many winning factors is the customizable game client, which allows you to make and install add-ons which enhance the game. Here we list five of the most useful and indispensible World of Warcraft add-ons for your gaming needs. AuctioneerAuctioneer installs into your auction-house interface and your tool-tips to give you up-to-date information on the economic situation on your server. Just go to the auction-house and set it scanning to populate the database. From that point on, every item's tooltip will have the price of the item when sold to a merchant, the average price of the item on the auction-house, and how many of the items were for sale the last time you scanned. A full-featured panel on the auctions screen allows you to find the best price to set for your items and to figure out bidding strategies, and the logs allow you to track your sales and keep track of both good people to buy from and good customers.This little add-on has successfully turned me into an auction-house tycoon on every character I have played past level 30. The reason I say past level 30 is because the add-on isn't magic...it gives you an edge, but you still need to figure out the strategies yourself. If you have a head for business and a keen sense of markets, however, this add-on gives you all the data you need to get rich and have fun doing it.CartographerAs the name implies, Cartographer is a mapping utility. It installs into your normal map interface to give you coordinates, change the look and feel of your map, mark and color-code your group members and raid groups, and vie...

World of Warcraft Patch 3.2 Twinking Changes Explained
2009-08-13
This article is originated from www.brighthub.com. Twinking in 3.2 - Part 1 of the Solution
Finally, after so many years of complaining, the "problem" of twinking is being addressed. The solution is three-fold. To encourage players that are leveling up to participate in PvP along the way, XP will now be rewarded for participating in the objectives of each battleground. For example, capturing the Lumber Mill in Arathi Basin will award experience points. However, killing an enemy player (or 50) has no experience reward. The goal is to complete the battleground, not endlessly farm eachother for experience (honor kill farming is already a big enough problem). This change alone would likely completely destroy twinks, forcing them to level up from doing the only thing their character is designed to do.Twinking in 3.2 - Part 2 of the Solution

However, in addition to XP being awarded in battlegrounds, t...
