I know for sure we’ve mentioned this on the podcast (in the ever-more-popular Turpster’s Tips feature), but I’m not sure we’ve ever explicitly mentioned it on the site before, and this post from WoW Ladies is a great reminder to do so: next time you’re checking out your character screen, try holding Alt as you [...]

Hey, remember back in vanilla WoW when warlocks were the most powerful, feared, and complained-about-on-the-forums of all the classes? Synar of <High Solstice> on Stormrage does, and he’s ready to bring happy days back again by taking out the warlock’s main archrival class and gear competitor. However, his attack on the mage trainers at the [...]

But apparently that’s [...]

Our good friends at BlizzPlanet have obtained a ticket to the happiest place on Earth (BlizzCon, of course — right next to some dump called Disneyland), and they’re giving it away over on their site. There are a few hoops to jump through, but then again, how much do you want to go to BlizzCon? [...]

Patch 3.1.2 has added another entry into our list of things that are completely freaking adorable today. We didn’t notice this on the PTR for some reason (likely because everyone was busy playing premades that lacked turtles) but jumping in place on a Sea Turtle does something really quite cool.

We here at WoW Insider are on a Daily Quest to bring you interesting, informative and entertaining WoW-related links from around the blogosphere.
It’s not a blog, it’s not a vlog, it’s not a podcast, but it’s still worth a mention: Irae AoD, a European guild, scored the world first for the achievement One Light in [...]

This isn’t exactly shocking news (this just in: Blizzard has an advertising budget!) but it is worth noting: Mark C. was watching the NBA playoffs the other day and lo and behold, guess which familiar logo appeared during a halftime sponsorship. Apparently the announcer even read off the name of the game during a tag. [...]
