The actual dps increases are something more like adding Pyroblast to Torment the Weak and Empowered Fire. That may have missed the most recent patch notes. Buh. Yes, ghostcrawler, a change this huge did miss the patch notes, just a little bit. So uh. Yeah. Pyroblast added to TtW and Empowered Fire. Now when I [...]

No Achievement? No Problem!
Posted in In Other News, tagged Achievements, Squeegee on February 23, 2010 | 26 Comments »
So there exists an addon called “Underachiever”. What this addon does is allow you to link fake achievements. Let’s say I want to do Digimon, the latest boss in Archavon’s vault. I whisper a raid leader, and he says “whisper achiev or no inv”. But I haven’t done the guy yet! What do I do [...]
Patch 3.3.3: Mages and PvP and Batman
Posted in Discussion, tagged Patch Notes, PvP, Raiding, Talents, Theorycraft on February 19, 2010 | 18 Comments »
There is, in fact, nothing about Batman in this post or patch 3.3.3. Que Disappoint! Currently I am blasting Motley Crue’s Dr. Feelgood as loud as these here computer speakers can go. Why do I do this? Because I’m excited, that’s why! Buffs, buffs for everyone, a new BG system hip hip hooray! First up, [...]
Friday Fiction: A Thousand Things
Posted in Anecdote, tagged Fanfic, Story on February 19, 2010 | 15 Comments »
This is a story. I wrote it. It is WoW fiction, read at your own risk. I’m sure I have mentioned this before, but like many bloggers I have certain aspirations to, perhaps, write things in a more professional manner at some stage in my nebulous future. Thus I practice things, so here is some [...]
Escapism
Posted in Anecdote, tagged Blogging on February 16, 2010 | 70 Comments »
The background for this post can be read here and here. WoW is an escape for many people, myself included. I daresay the majority of WoW players are using WoW as an “escape” from “real” life. Quite a few of them probably feel guilty about it, or type /played and have this hollow sensation of [...]
Three Dimensions
Posted in Discussion, tagged Squeegee on February 11, 2010 | 12 Comments »
This is largely going to be in response to “The Third Dimension” over at Blessing of Kings. Consider a puzzle with chopsticks for a second here. You are given three chopsticks. Make a triangle, one chopstick for each side. Trivial, right? You are given five chopsticks. Make two triangles, again with one chopstick for each [...]
Cataclysm Will Fix It!
Posted in Rant, tagged Bitching on February 10, 2010 | 35 Comments »
(This rant was written many weeks ago, so complaints about PvP burst may seem a little hollow now, but hey, QQ is QQ and that’s why you’re here, right?) I’m getting really tired of this sentiment. An open note to Blizzard: WE ARE NOT PLAYING CATACLYSM. WE ARE PLAYING WRATH OF THE LICH KING. I [...]
Lulz

Wait for it… Perhaps I’d make a good goblin yet! This is just too damn funny for words. Do these people even realize how easy it is to farm those things? Not that I’m going to tell them, oh no! 19 gold for about five seconds worth of effort is just so great. I guess [...]
I Cannot Use Apostrophe’s
Posted in Anecdote, tagged Blogging, Story on February 8, 2010 | 47 Comments »
“It’s” means “it is”, whereas “its” signifies ownership. The apostrophe only shows ownership when it’s used with any word that isn’t it. It’s confusing sometimes, but it should be taught to students from a young age, so it shouldn’t be a problem, should it? I, for one, struggle greatly with getting it’s/its correctly, and I [...]
SPOILERS! Discussing the Lich King End Video
Posted in Discussion, tagged Story on February 5, 2010 | 35 Comments »
I will be discussing the overall arch of Wrath herein, including the end video of the Lich King encounter. If you have not seen it and do not wish to be spoiled, well, I’m not really going to be saying anything that would spoil it really. More than likely anything I mention you would have [...]
