Retribution Paladins continue to take a beating. As much as Ghostcrawler tried to soften the blow in his post, there just isn’t any nice way to go about this — Blizzard is looking for a way to make Divine Shield and Avenging Wrath to be mutually exclusive once again. He says that the […]

| WoW News | Comments closed

Filed under: Analysis / Opinion, Machinima

From comedians Rich Kuras and Sandeep Parikh (who you know best from The Guild, most likely) comes a look at the United States presidential election through the eyes of Azeroth.

Name: […]

No matter what you call those big floating pyramids above Azeroth, right now is the right time to chase them down and kill the Scourge hanging around beneath them. If you don’t have epic gloves or shoulders on right now, odds are that you could use the upgrades from the […]

Preview of the new minimap mod SexyMap

| WoW News | Comments closed

Filed under: Analysis / Opinion, AddOns
