Salty Jecaa of <The Illuminati> on Lightbringer-EU sends us this picture from General Vezax’s room in Ulduar, taken while his guild was preparing to fight Yogg-Saron. Why all the smashed stained glass? Perhaps Vezax, a hideous Zoidberg-like lobster creature, chose to destroy the beautiful artwork surrounding him so it wouldn’t contrast so vividly with his [...]

As Kafalli of <Guitarred and Feathered> on Frostwolf looked on in horror, a thick hedge of brambles covered in strange druidic symbols grew over the city. The evil warlock’s corruption of his graphics card had succeeded, and his beloved was trapped inside the castle, deep inside an enchanted lag storm. Kafalli knew he would have [...]

World of [...]

Volcano sent us this tip about Pokerface, the new video by Ayukyo. Volcano hints that Ayukyo could be one of Demachic’s favorite machinimators. Whether or not that’s true, I can certainly see how that might be the case. Ayukyo’s style is light, friendly, and warm. While your mileage is going to vary depending on whether [...]

Ready Check is a weekly column focusing on successful raiding for the serious raider. Hardcore or casual, Vault of Archavon or Ulduar, everyone can get in on the action and down some bosses. This week, we’re LF24M Yogg-Saron hard mode PST.

The OC Register has a great breakdown of what Activision said on their earnings conference call today. Perhaps the biggest WoW-related stat to come out of the call is that the number of subscribers to the game has apparently leveled off: they’re holding steady at 11.5 million.

Call me a lore noob (and that’s fine, Alex will heartily agree with you), but like Loregy.com suspected, I had never before heard of Jarod Shadowsong. We pretty much all know about his sister Maeiv, thanks to her little tirade against Illidan and the big part that played in the last expansion. But Jarod might [...]

For if u touch this, more whelps will spawn. Aspiring naked rapper Molimo of <Lament> on Cenarion Circle recently recorded his first song, “Draconic for Dummies (Deep Breath Version)”, featuring MC Onxyia and the Whelplings. Sadly, it was banned in Orgrimmar for inciting post-traumatic stress in Horde members who remembered having to go through the [...]

I love theorycraft. One of my favorite things about WoW is the fact that you can do math about it, and that math can help you play better. One of the better examples of theorycraft out there was MK, author of A Dwarf Priest, who did some seriously cool work on Holy gear [...]
