The Short Strat: Eye of the Storm

W elcome to the Eye of the Storm edition of The Short Strat, the show where we take complicated battleground strategies and condense them into one easily pasted message. I’m hoping that by making these strats simple and copy-able, it might provide a reference to get people on the same page.? These strats are not meant to be comprehensive by any means.? As always, if you have an alternate strategy, please submit it via comments and I will include it in the strat reference section of this post.? Please keep in mind that all explanations need to be kept under the 255 character limit for the default WoW chat box.


WoW Patch 3.3.3 Honor and PvP Changes

There’s a lot going down in Patch 3.3.3 I haven’t really covered so far in regards to PvP and specifically my favorite feature – Battlegrounds. All of this is in preparation of the massive PvP overhaul coming in Cataclysm with a heavier emphasis on Battlegrounds. Tokens are being removed from the game, if you have tokens (the currency you get when you win or lose any BG) you’ll be able to turn those in now for a minor chunk of honor, which is a good thing I guess since there are some players out there with thousands of marks of honor


US First GotIR, Patch 3.3.3 Honor Changes, Blue posts

US First Glory of the Raider (25) by Midwinter Midwinter (US-Ysera) was the first guild to complete Glory of the Icecrown Raider (25 player) and I totally forgot to report it. Shame on me, and congratulations to them! Patch 3.3.3 Battlegrounds and Honor Changes Patch 3.3.3 brings a couple of changes to the Battleground system, the new system is heavily inspired from the current random dungeon system and it should be pretty easy to understand. Random Battleground and Call to Arms Call to Arms are no longer a quests and are directly integrated to the battlegrounds interface, a new “Random Battleground” option has been added and give you the same honor bonus as the Call To Arms, but applied to any battleground


The Art of War(craft): Absolute beginners’ guide to Eye of the Storm

Every week, Zach takes you on a guided tour of the Battlegrounds , kind of like how those tour guides take you on a safari. Except that instead of boring old lions or lazy zebras on a savanna, you’ve got bloodthirsty, axe-wielding orcs and stubby gnomes pewpewing laser beams from their fingertips. So you know a little bit about the Battlegrounds now

Zarhym talks about the Isle of Conquest battleground

So one of the things we have coming our way in patch 3.2 will be the new Isle of Conquest battleground . Unfortunately, we don’t know much more about it than the name, but that has not stopped everyone from speculating on what it could bring, whether it be a combination of some of the old mechanics from previous battlegrounds (Much like Eye of the Storm was a combination of Arathi Basin and Warsong Gulch ) or completely new ideas. There’s been hints it’s more like Alterac Valley than other old battlegrounds, but for now, we’re waiting impatiently for the PTR in the hopes of getting a real look.
