Reader comments — ahh, yes, the juicy goodness following a meaty post. [1.Local] ducks past the swinging doors to see what readers have been chatting about in the back room over the past week

Vendarvan of on Kael’Thas knows that you can’t hurry love. He’s decided to sit and wait for his true love, the Maiden of Winter’s Breath Lake , to warm up to his advances. When you can live for thousands of years, hanging around for a couple of years waiting for a date isn’t that big a deal.

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.

Deadlylupine of on Balnazzar snapped this shot of her drake rising through the mist in Terokkar Forest. “I happened to be flying in lovely Terokkar, and my Nether Drake was just so overwhelmed with light, he had to have a celebratory roar,” she wrote. Do you have any unusual, beautiful or interesting World of Warcraft images that are just collecting dust in your screenshots folder
