Professions for a Paladin

I will eventually be able to decide something for myself on occasion, I swear. 8BSo I posted awhile ago about wanting to reclaim the name of my very first character, Iridia, but how it had been snatched up by someone else between the time I had transferred

To celebrate the upcoming 4.2....

It's time for another round of "Help me pick which alt to level." I know you've all seen this before, but this is my first time asking! I have a weekend with my kids away at Grandma's house and with the exception of Al'Akir,

Breakfast Topic: Are you a confirmed craftaholic?

This Breakfast Topic has been brought to you by Seed, the AOL guest writer program that brings your words to WoW Insider's pages. In my non-WoW life, I am the complete opposite of mechanically inclined. This caused my dad many problems as I was

Friday wrap-up

I have two blogging projects going at once, one is a bit of fluff and one is a very in-depth bit of research. I need to get back to them, but the past two weeks have been pretty hectic, despite having a holiday in the middle of it all. My gear sucks

Finkle's skinner in the bag

If you were wondering about soloing Upper Blackrock Spire (UBRS) at 85, it's straightforward and easy. You can honestly DPS (lots of Starfall and Hurricane) your way through the whole thing like a demigod, no problem. Lots of runecloth and rugged

Ding! 85

And it's happened. I'm finally 85. And it seems appropriate I dinged while turning in Wildhammer reputation quests, as I'll be running that for quite a while.Continuing the thread from my last few posts, I quickly picked up Aessina-Blessed

Gear hunting

Okay, I took a look through Shifting Perspective's gear list, which nostalgeek suggested last time. It's a good list, though much is from heroic dungeons, which is probably beyond my part-time gatherer status.There are many things that are

Miscellaneous 4.0.6 Patch Notes

I'm going to try to cut this one down a bit to just what I feel are the important parts. Again, I'll add my own commentary in italics, but the meat of this post is poached from the full notes that I nabbed from the Zam feed. If you want to

4.0.6 Review

MMO Champion is reporting that patch 4.0.6 will be released tomorrow. Since this patch was released piece by piece over a fairly long time I thought it might be a good idea to go through and remind everyone what is included. Both the gear list and the

The woes of an altoholic

Hey all,I just managed to get my 3rd character to 85 last night.  So far I have a 85 warrior (Gungrir on Elune server), 85 DK (Neversor on Elune), and now 85 hunter (Tentacleface on Elune).  Gungrir is my main, but

Catching Up on 4.0.6

Life has been smacking me around quite a bit lately. Between work, family and raiding I haven't had much time to blog and a ton of information has come out and almost past me by. Well I hope to correct that to day. There is lots of news about patch

Professionalizing

In addition to all the leveling, rep “grinding”, gear gathering and raiding going on, I’ve been pretty big on leveling my professions with this expansion. I’ve been able to do pretty well so far with a few exceptions here and there.

Bank alt professions? And spiffy clothes!

Hello, ladies and gents. I come to you with an inquiry.I started leveling my bank alt, a Rogue, because she's kinda-sorta fun in the button-mashy way and because I'd like to be able to ride the sparklepony that's in her bank. Since she's

Chaos Orbs

I know there had been a little frustration before that Chaos Orbs were BOP and people were needing them in dungeons. Well, as of yesterday's hotfix they are still BOP, BUT:"Chaos Orbs can now only been seen and rolled on by characters with
