Blisters and Bandaids - Dealing with Injury in Roleplay
Posted on October 28, 2008 - Filed Under Guides, Roleplay | 6 Comments
Injury is one of the natural consequences of people fighting each other all the time. Two guys with armor and weaponry slashing away at each other - the likelihood is that ONE of them is going to end up wounded, possibly seriously.
Game mechanics make this easy to deal with - just cast a healing [...]
Seven Sources of Hunter Pet Name Inspiration
Posted on October 22, 2008 - Filed Under Guides, Hunter | 24 Comments
One of the most fun things about playing a hunter is choosing and taming your pets. Unlike warlocks (whose pets come with names), mages and shamans (whose pets are temporary summons), we actually get to name our pets ourselves.

Sometimes, however, that’s not a bonus.
I once ran around for 2 months with “Scorpid” before I [...]
Building Anna’s UI
Posted on October 21, 2008 - Filed Under Guides, Raiding | 16 Comments
So now that I have the server cooperating! I posted my UI screenshot on Friday, but after getting a bunch of questions, I figured I’d break things down for you in a little more concrete way. I apologize for this being a little bit wall-of-text-y: the idea is for you to look at the screenshot, [...]

The Giant UI Post of Doom arriveth on the morrow. Prepare thee for wall of text!
Achievements are kinda fun. Also, kinda trigger the completionist, OCD tendencies I have for some of my characters. Figuring out who gets to do which achievements will hopefully help though.
Seeing all 12 of your guildmates getting the Leeroy, UBRS, [...]
Going Resto in Three-point-Oh
Posted on October 14, 2008 - Filed Under Guides, Shaman | 14 Comments
Welcome to the beginning of new things! It’s here - patch day - the day of DOOM, or excitement… or maybe a little bit of both. One of the first things you’ll notice when you log in today is that you have no more talents!
Ok. The first thing you’ll notice is that your interface is [...]
The Best of 3.0/WotLK Information
Posted on October 8, 2008 - Filed Under Guides, Priest | 31 Comments
Or at least, the best that I’ve found.
I’ve been following all this expansion and 3.0 brouhaha more closely lately, given that we’re about a week before this thing lands (*hums* it’s the end of the world as we know it…). Unfortunately, all of the best info is - as you’d expect - scattered across the [...]

Siha recently posted a fantastic and extensive guide to leveling inscription in the upcoming patch (3.0) - kind of as a head-start for the expansion.
Now, I’m not one to get too into this whole beta business, as I’m sure you’ve noticed, but with a release date announced and patch 3.0 on the PTR, we’re going [...]
Home again, Home again…
Posted on September 27, 2008 - Filed Under Guides, Other stuff | 6 Comments
I’m back in action - kinda. Husband and I returned to our home on Thursday, and our internet finally returned this morning. Which, really, puts us in the lucky camp - many people around here have no homes to go back to. (There are some apartments nearby that got the bricks blown clean off the [...]
