World Premiere: Skeletal Raptor Mount

written on September 13th, 2010 with no comments

Behold – the Skeletal Raptor mount! I was fortunate enough to be able to be the first brave adventurer to catch one of these beauties on film. Discovered by beta guildmate Melianna through Archaeology, this mount is sure to be on the top of everybody’s Cataclysm to-do list. Melianna first unlocked the journal entry for this mount at around 285 Archaeology skill and it took 100 fossil fragments to complete. Next stop, the Qiraj flyer!

Beta First Look: Archaeology

written on September 10th, 2010 with 3 comments

Today’s latest beta build has brought us many changes as well as a few new additions. Perhaps most notable is the implementation of Cataclysm’s new profession, Archaeology. As a total Indiana Jones geek, I’ve been salivating at the chance to try out the new profession from the moment we first heard about it at Blizzcon ‘09. So how does it work? Check out an exclusive first look video I produced of Archaeology in action after the break.

Polygamy and Why Being Left Out Sucks

written on August 12th, 2010 with 12 comments

Playing MMOs Alone Sucks

I’m certain that everyone reading this has felt left out at some point in their gaming lives. It started when I started leveling my priest more than four years ago now and hasn’t stopped since. For me it has actually gotten worse.

As my husband says, “We’re on different levels of play. I’m more competitive than you.” How does anyone think that this amounts to a valid argument when someone feels left out – especially a significant other or spouse?

I am in a polygamous relationship. Krieg, myself, World of Warcraft, and Starcraft II are all shacked up in this house where Soviet Russia meets Utah, where the game plays and screws you.

There’s a “group session” going on and I’m not invited.

Leveling Your Girlfriend – How Relationships Are Like MMO’s

written on August 11th, 2010 with 2 comments

This was simply to funny to pass up. It’s from Reddit’s “WoW” subreddit.

Levelling a girlfriend is, in many ways like levelling in an MMORPG, like World of Warcraft for example. At first you start off with small simple tasks or ‘quests’ that you carry out in a safe and relatively danger free zone. These ‘quests’ can be something simple like gathering plants or flowers, and returning them to the quest giver (your girlfriend) in return for small, token rewards, occasionally a few silver or a small trinket or bracelet. Often these quests will grant ‘reputation’ with your chosen faction which, again, can be turned in at a later date for huge rewards in return for your diligent service.

The Pitfall of Gear Score

The Pitfall of Gear Score

Anyone that plays World of Warcraft has been asked, “What’s your gear score?” so many times they can’t see straight. any time you are looking for a raid, you will see, “Need 3 dps over 5500 gs only for ICC10” in trade chat.

Gear Score is ruining the game.
