According to its author, Icecrown Citadel – The Movie was inspired by Invisura’s Ulduar: The Movie. The comparison is fairly apt, since this kind of long cinematic view of a raid is a relatively new concept. According to Cybeloras, Ulduar: The Movie is his favorite WoW film “of all time,” so he’s understandably pretty excited about this project. There’s enough call-backs to Ulduar’ s that you don’t miss Icecrown’s roots. I think this is a fun movie for anyone who enjoys the lore of Icecrown Citadel. There’s plenty of information here to get your fix for story and genre, while still focusing on the experience of raiding the Lich King’s homebase. Cybeloras has done a pretty good job with this project, and I’m excited to see what comes next. The first part only includes the bosses from the lower spire, and the second part will be out once the creator has enough footage. Check it out yourself, and let us know what you think.

Season 8 arena gear now available for you to drool over! Even though season 8 hasn’t quite started yet due to delays, arena players will be rocking it in style. Although no clear date has been set in stone, the next arena season is expected to start soon (possibly coinciding with the 3.3.2 patch). The above shot is what the paladin gear looks like. Personally, I really like the way paladins, priests and warlocks look. I can’t say that there is a specific armor set that I absolutely despise, but do take a look at our gallery and see all the sets for yourself.

By now, those of you that have slowly progressed throughout the initial part of Icecrown have witnessed (or at least triggered) various traps. Some traps seem to show up after your group has cleared out a room or killed certain mobs or met some other condition like the ones before Lord Marrowgar. But wait, there are more of them! Dinaer at Forever a Noob demonstrates that there are more traps as you progress through the levels of Icecrown Citadel. Spirit alarm: Trip these to bring in the big skeletons. Great for reputation. There are four of these in the two chambers leading up to Lord Marrowgar. Mist trap: Not exactly a trap per se, but it can catch the unwitting raider off guard if they run into it. Either have a rogue disable it on the side, or activate the teleporter on the other side and beam in. You’ll run into it after you’ve downed the Deathbringer and zone in behind him. Geist trap: You’ll find these littered in the hallways of the Plagueworks. Have a tank behind the raid to intercept them as they appear. I wonder what other traps we’ll see in the remaining parts of Icecrown. I can’t remember the last instance that had traps on the scale

You’ve seen them in the streets of capital cities, diligently dashing between the bank and mailboxes. Or maybe you’ll occasionally catch a glance of them idling in front of the auctioneers. Who am I talking about? Bank alts! While we toil and triumph in Northrend, these hardworking heroes of the home front care for the well-being of our estates, keeping our investments sound and our pockets full. In return, many players choose to provide them with a share of the profits, so that they can dress themselves (or undress themselves) in the most fashionable ways. Now it’s time to pay tribute to them. If you have an amazing bank alt, send a screenshot of it to dawn@wow.com by January 27th at 11:59 p.m. EST and we’ll post the best results. We’ll also take the top five or so and let you all vote on them, handing out a Slashdance and Papa Hummel’s loot code to the top two winners.

Every Sunday Spiritual Guidance offers Holy and Discipline priests advice on how to wield the holy light and groove to the disco night. Your hostess Dawn Moore will provide the music. I decided to take a break from gems this week to discuss a style of priest healing that is becoming popular among raiders: discipline raid healing. Though the concepts behind it are extremely simple to understand and execute, this style of play seems to have slipped under the radar of many players despite its amazing potential. Tag along with me after the jump and I’ll fill you in on the basics and benefits of disc raid healing. Holy priests, I’m talking to you, too. Unfortunately for the average discipline priest, there were quick and inappropriate assessments made early in Wrath of the Lich King which tagged discipline as a “tank healing” spec. While I do agree that discipline’s burst response and damage mitigation lend themselves extremely well to healing a tank, there is a great deal of potential that will go untapped if a discipline priest never ventures outside of a little bit of cross healing. Take note – discipline priest are single target healers, not tank

Every so often, an email comes along the tip line that really gets the writers talking, and we received one such email last night from our reader Zikko, who was curious what people did while they were waiting for the Dungeon Finder to assign them a group (“Guess this only applies to DPS,” as he/she observed). While Zikko usually does dailies, watches TV, or farms mats for cooking and fishing, he/she wondered whether anyone had hit upon a better way to pass the time while the Dungeon Finder went on the search. I include the writers’ individual comments below, not just because it’s a nice “slice of life,” but I also think it’s a good peek at how different peoples’ experiences can be depending on the roles they play: Matt Rossi: I have time to inhale a couple of times during the LFD queue. Allison Robert: To amuse myself, I start counting, “One mississippi, two mississippi, three mississippi…” from releasing the mouse’s left button on the Join Group option and the queue popping. However, I am likely to discontinue the practice, as my brain is having increasing difficulty remembering what comes directly after

Welcome back to The Queue, WoW.com’s daily Q&A column where the WoW.com team answers your questions about the World of Warcraft. Adam Holisky be your host today. The above picture continues my obsession with Dr. Who, thanks to Liz. I’m not saying there’s a space time disturbance here, or that something bad is about to happen. But it might, because there is a blue police box outside of my apartment. Johnthediver asked… “Dance studios? Still coming? I am sick and tired of doing the “Hammer” or head banging.” We haven’t heard anything about it, so I’d imagine Blizzard is keeping news of it very close to their chest. We’ll know if it’s coming out in the next expansion when Cataclysm’s features become more apparent. Fallen asked… “Was just wondering if there was an age limit on the applications for the columnist positions?” You have to be legally employable in your place of residence. WoW.com right now has staff from their mid-20s through 40s. If your city/county/state/country/planet says you can be employed at 3 years old, then you can work here. If it says you have to be 16, then you

Zach is a Battlegrounds junkie. Even when he’s hocking up asthma-generated globules of radioactive phlegm, he still manages to squeeze in a little slaughtering time. Happy New Year, folks. I hope all of you had a good 2009 and are reading this without a lingering hangover or, like me, some form of bronchial complication stemming from the smog generated by all the festivities’ firecrackers. We’re kicking off 2010 with a quick look at the year that just passed, and boy, was it ever a good one. More than any other year in the World of Warcraft, 2009 was a fantastic year for the Battlegrounds. Some very significant changes implemented that year renewed their relevance; furthermore, Battleground enthusiasts also received a verbal commitment from Blizzard developers that that aspect of the game would receive more focus and attention. The year began with the effects of Wrath spilling over from 2008, with the new and exciting Wintergrasp giving new life (and lag) to the world PvP experience. The first important change, however, was to come later with patch 3.1 in April 2009. Queue anywhere, anytime Patch 3.1 introduced the ability to queue from anywhere in the world,

Welcome back to The Queue, WoW.com’s daily Q&A column where the WoW.com team answers your questions about the World of Warcraft. Michael Sacco will be your host today. That’s influenza A virus subtype H1N1 up there, but I’m pretty sure you thought it was just a really blurry map of Northrend at first glance. I’m not wrong. You thought it. Mr. Shinra asked… Why exactly are there places where we suddenly and magically cannot mount up (I mean *aside* from combat which is obvious), such as getting killed by the trash after Ionar in Halls of Lightning and having to run all the way back. You’ve seen how big and expansive those halls are, I don’t see a major reason why we cannot mount up to get back a bit quicker. At least in Culling of Stratholme we can ride from that house to the city proper– so its not a consistent rule entirely either. I’m not suggesting there aren’t places where it makes a bit more sense; I can understand small areas such as the various vendors in Orgimmar and their tiny huts, where there just isn’t enough room, but a lot of the times, it seems like we have to dismount because… the game

Karen sent in this murloc-tastic screenshot with this description: I grabbed this while doing some tribal outreach/assassination work for D. E. H. T. A.. I call it “I come in peace! Pay no attention to the felguard behind the axe.” Keywords: Azeroth, felguard action shot, this costume makes me look fat.” Not that fat, Karen, just big-boned. Do you have any unusual, beautiful or interesting World of Warcraft images that are just collecting dust in your screenshots folder? We’d love to see them on Around Azeroth! Sharing your screenshot is as simple as e-mailing aroundazeroth@wow.com with a copy of your shot and a brief explanation of the scene. You could be featured here next! Remember to include your player name, server and/or guild if you want it mentioned. Please include the word “Azeroth” in your post so it does not get swept into the spam bin. We strongly prefer full screen shots without the UI showing — use alt-Z to remove it. Please, no more battleground scoreboards, Val’kyr on mounts, or pictures of the Ninja Turtles in Dalaran. Older screenshots can be found here.
