Not only from the cool Fire Festival going on, but also from the constant realeases of patches and Wrath of the Leach King rapidly closing in. Not only that, will the competion from other MMORGS like Age of Conan or Warhammer evolve to be worthy option or will people still stay loyal to trusty old WoW.
For how long will Blizzard hold the crown?
Don't you think it's time for something new, fresh and more exciting than yet another expansion.
Don't get me wrong, I love World of Warcraft but sometimes I can feel that it's a bit too much.
WoW News:
- Fire Festival Begins - Players now have the chance to participate in the Fire Festival Activities. It started June 21st and ends July 5th. So be sure to enjoy these new quests, and one new boss, Lord Ahune while you can!
- Season 4 Begins! - After a few weeks of players having access to the highest level gear in the game from Kil'jaeden Blizzard decided to release all the new gear that comes with Season 4! Players should be extremely excited for this new season, as the level of gear is a significant increase for PvP and PvE purposes. I know I can't wait to spend my saved arena points on some awesome new gear. However I am sad to surrender my 2,000 rating which I will have to build up again!
- No Beta testers Yet! - Blizzard has not opened up Wrath of the Lich King for beta testers yet. So if you are receiving e-mails guaranteeing you will get into the beta they are a scam, and plan to steal your account! Be aware, and remember that Blizzard will never ask you for your account details such as your password, EVER!
Also don't be fooled by pretty homepages that look a lot like Blizzards login page. Always check Blizzards orginal site for the latest news first. - Patch 2.4.3 available on the PTR - Blizzard has launched 2.4.3 to the PTR, so get over and transfer your characters on and start practicing the new boss Lord Ahune for the Fire Festival. He has a very nice loot table that you can find here on Wowhead.
- Frag Dominant Wins first MLG Tournament - Frag Dominant bounced back from the losers bracket to beat Nihilum after starting at a 3-2 deficit. They switched their line-up around from rogue, rogue, druid to warrior, rogue, druid. The extra burst allowed them to counter the Priest, Druid, Hunter combo of Nihilum. Frag Dominant walked away with $12,000 and three Blackbird HP gaming consoles valued at
- $ 3,000 each!
- Magister's Terrace Nerfed -Players will find most of the trash to be significantly easier now. Most importantly the Glaive Throw stun was removed, along with reduced damage output from nearly every dangerous trash mob found inside Magister's Terrace. Some boss fights were also nerfed, Vexallus was actually brought down to what I think is on par with his place in the dungeon. The Princess Delrissa fight was also nerfed by lowering the damage of the rogue and warrior, so this fight should be cake now as they were the only dangerous ones anyway!
- Eredar Twins Loot Increased - Now the Eredar twins will drop the increased loot no matter which order you kill them in. So happy sunmoting!!!
- Raid Instance Summoning Bug Fixed - Players can now be summoned to a raid instance from a heroic dungeon. This will be a nice feature for those just wrapping up a daily heroic when the raid is starting.
- Curse of Elements / Shadows Changes in 2.4.3 - Curse of Shadows has been removed and Curse of Elements now includes damage increases for Arcane and Shadow damage also. This will reduce the stigma of having to bring 3 to 4 warlocks to each and every raid!
- Haris Pilton Bag and Jewelry Seller Extraordinaire in 2.4.3! - You have got to love Blizzard's sense of humor, and their willingness to give players what they ask for. Haris Pilton will offer players the right to buy 22 slot bags, albeit for a hefty price of 1,200 gold. This is another measure to pull gold out of the highly inflated economy, since they were not quite prepared for the huge influx of gold the daily quests would yield. This is not a limited supply item either, so start saving right away!! They are BoE, so the really rich players can buy them for their bank alts too!
