Leveling a DK: An Introduction to Power Leveling Concepts

Heya guys!! So I recently made a post illustrating the core concepts and decisions you need to approach when leveling a DK. And that in turn has generated some interest in the Power Leveling aspect of DK’s


Leveling a DK: An Introduction to basic concepts.

Heya guys!! So one of the biggest things about leveling any toon in WoW is “What spec do I use?” Believe it or not, it is one of the most common questions out there. So lets dip into this question briefly?


Totem Talk: Restoration gearing for the new 80

Want to be a sultan of swing healing?


Optional

Suzina at Kill Ten Rats confessed that she bought gold to purchase dual specialization on her first WoW character at level 40. For the purposes of this post, let us ignore the whole “buying gold” aspect of the story


Stockholm syndrome and Hecker’s nightmare

I recently came across a player in World of Warcraft who was wearing a guild tag of .


Twink Experiment

As a guild we like to do stuff together.


Hall of Fame: Anaalius of Chamber of Aspect-EU

The Warcraft Econ Hall of Fame  is a column featuring the few elite players that have hit the World of Warcraft gold cap of 214,748 gold 36 silver 46 copper.


My Tribe – Next generation Facebook games?

Following a recommendation from Cuppycake , I reactivated my dormant Facebook account and started playing My Tribe . As I said in my previous discussion of Facebook games , I recognize the power of the social engineering tools used for games like Farmville, but didn’t like that these games were so lacking in actual gameplay. There isn’t really much gameplay involved in apps like Farmville or Mafia Wars, it is just clicking to get rewards, plus incentives to give money to the game company and to invite your friends into the game.


Weekend round up.

Did first 4 bosses on ICC 25 man - My better upgrades are going to come from 25 so I should do them more often. Don’t need much loot in 10’s.


Gold, entitlement, and morality

As I mentioned in the previous post, Tobold the tauren shaman of Single Abstract Noun is now level 20. What I didn’t mention is that he has 851 gold pieces in his pocket, having earned 1,092 gold over his live already, starting from nothing, and with no outside help. That is something I *am* proud of.


The real purpose of end-game

So Ferrel wants to bring back the grind and make leveling slower again, while Chris thinks leveling should be slowed down by giving less xp for quests . Both talk about how much better life was in Everquest, where most players never even reached the level cap (I didn’t), and how MMORPGs should be about the journey, not about the destination.


I’m not an Altoholic * hic

Cozmo from GTFOOTF pointed out that so many of us bloggers are playing Wow in some new or different wa y to maintain our motivations to keep playing, and speaking to Kiwired from One of these Alts  who has rolled even more Alts with SAN – how SAN   ( Single Abstract Noun ) has come about at the right time for him to fill in the gaps between now and the expansion. Alts – Special projects – who will survive this downturn – or shall we see more Phoenix raiders ‘die’ and then resurrect in time for the expansion with grand stories of other games, and stuff like real life stories.  The result of a current case of Altolism or Is it ADD is now a Level 20 Shammy – I’m feeling a little guilty


Totem Talk: Leveling as restoration

Want to be a sultan of swing healing? A champion of Chain Heal? Totem Talk : Restoration will show you how.


Putting Faces to Names & The UI World

One of the great things about the standard Blizzard UI is the portraits given to your toon. Back in TBC, what I liked to do was show my helm for one gear set, my cloak for another and neither for a third.


What In the World Is Going On?

As most of you know I am a Christian.


Give all Starting toons 1 gold.

Due to circumstances – my Foray into the Bloggers guild, Single Abstract Noun and rolling a new toon as horde with a friend – I started leveling two new toons this weekend from scratch. My #4 Priest Pugnaciouss  ( yes I am insane) I got her to level 14 and a Tauren Shammy  Zahrah on Gundrak who is now level 15 Leveling a priest like that

Zach broke up this week’s The Art of War(craft) covering rogues because, well, those rogues are darned sneaky! So sneaky that they surprised him with more secret information than he was expecting to write about. So read quickly.
