Episode 70 – What the DINGO is a Chook?

Fim and Nib have lost control! Of the podcast that is! The Bind on Equip crew put the Dingo to the hosts and are nigh unstoppable. Along the way there is some chat about some incoming Armory changes, the Feast of Winter’s Veil and a good amount

I Survived...

Hola blog lovers!I know everyone was worried and interested to know if I survived the three day roadtrip bachelor party. Well, I am sorry to tell you that I did in fact make it home alive and I will still be updating my blog lol.Fun, fun, times were had.

Bah Humbug

Ok, so I am going to follow the crowd (one of those pesky Mage types must’ve sheeped me) and link my Merrymaker post from last year.  Why?  Because Blizzard have changed diddly squat!
Once again… I’m not going to get the title. 

WoW Moviewatch: I'm a Hunter

I'm a Hunter was created by Fruity Loops, Frostheim, and Mike Hallenbeck. The video was also made by Frostheim. When Frostheim dropped me a note about the video, he definitely seemed to think the overwhelming demand for a Hunter theme goes as far back

The New LFG is NGE (Not Good Enough)

OK, let me start on the bright side…
Arioch (bless her soul) brought this little number to my attention in the comments of Magic Strudel’s post (why did you roll a Mage?). I wonder if Megan can top a pro like Nyhm?

3.3 LFM, maybe?

So, you're undoubtedly aware 3.3 is live on the servers.Out of all the changes and updates, the "Dungeon Finder" is definitely one of blizzard's better ideas. The old LFG system was poor, as it limited itself to just your own server. The new Dungeon Finder

Assault on Ice Crown Citadel

I was very excited as we formed up the Raid for Ice Crown Citadel. Please note, this is a description of my night raiding Ice Crown. There are spoilers in this post. Read on at your own risk. Our team consisted of Boston (Blood DK Tank), Honorshammer

HAOW: 3.3 Aff'lock Pet Choice And Stat Priority

At this point we've covered speccing, glyphing and rotating. That leaves us really with two remaining fundamentals to cover what I would call the basics: Pet Choice and Stat Priority.  Then we'll know what spells to use, what gear to wear, and what

The Joys of Random Pugging

I…I don’t even have words for this.  Wait, no, yes I do.  “What the fuck?”  Even the mage, who did decent DPS for a pug, failed to grasp simple mechanics like “spell reflect”.  The only reason that the warlock didn’t

Around Azeroth: Deep-seated issues

In spite of his many years of study and apprenticeship, deep down, Kathanor of Arthas never really wanted to be a blood elf mage. He wanted to be ... a lumberjack gnome pirate! Leaping from ship to ship throughout the mighty seas of Azeroth! The Defias!

Initial Icecrown and 3.3 Impressions

Well, it is finally here! Icecrown - Tuesday we all marched towards that taunting little sonofa... *cough* The Lich King. (by the way, doesn't the 3.3 Logo look like it says Fail of the Lich King to anyone else?).
I must admit I really was

Arcane Brilliance: How to be a good PUG mage

Welcome to another installment of Arcane Brilliance, the weekly mage column that is incredibly proud of mages. We are, after all, the only class in the game that can conjure our own 5-man group, as evidenced by the picture above. And though our mirror

Jotting down 3.3

Sylvanas lectures Arthas on why his electric bill is so ridiculously high.► Sounds like we were all together in taking on the bluebar boss in the loading screen raid for a few hours on patch day. Guess that's what Blizzard meant by cross-server grouping.

It's Tough Being An Alt

For once, the dining room table is populated by someone other than minions.  Fulguralis gazes at the faces around the small, circular wooden table in the house he shares with his Paladin wife.  His sister, Decedereful sits across from him, her

Random Dungeon: Oculus

Last night I hopped on Fohrbin again and popped into the random dungeon finder. after about 15 minutes, I got a group and ported into Oculus. Almost instantly the Tank and healer dropped group, so our DPS warrior switched himself to Tank and we rejoined

Patch 3.3: First Impressions

Since Patch 3.3 has been out for only a couple of days, I know most of us are still taking it all in and digesting the information, but I wanted to take a minute and give my first impressions.Icecrown Citadel (raid):Last night I cleared the first 4 bosses

Storming the Citadel

It took us almost two hours to enter ICC because "Additional instances cannot be launched" but I'm very happy with Icecrown Citadel! In the end I think we even got Alliance first clear of the wing on 25 man. Lord Marrowgar one shot, Lady Deathwhisper

Mage Alt? Read this!

I have a mage alt, and I’m not ashamed to say that he’s only level 56. If I ever get him to level cap (haha), I’d probably go to spicytuna’s blog to figure out how to play him. God only knows how I got him to 56…

Resist!

Seeing all the awesome-cute chibis Baenhoof’s been drawing recently made me want to do my own, and an evening of trying to kill mobs highly resistant to frost spells transmuted into this little doodle:

3.3: The Death to Hogger Raids

I spent a small amount of time on the PTRs this time for 3.3. It was fun to get a sneak peak of some of the stuff coming up. Other than that, I really haven't read too much about ALL the details of the patch that's going live today... until today.Since
