Wrath of the Lich King News

Filed under WoW News


 

WotLK

 
  • The Zombies of Azeroth - Ok, so whether you loved the zombies or hated the zombies we thought everyone should appreciate the other things which arrived with them (but didn’t all leave with them) so here’s a link to some of the things you may have been too annoyed to notice!

  • Raid Farming Post 3.0.2 - Well nothing on the surface changed too drastically with the release of the Echoes of Doom patch, but everything sure got a whole lot easier when it comes to the previously uber-leet raids. Ok, not so much that you can go in and one shot everything with a below average PuG, but enough that fights which used to be very complex have become much more doable and the fights that were fairly simple before actually make us chuckle a bit when that wave of nostalgia comes over us as we remember how hard they used to be. Of course some base knowledge of how the boss’ abilities work are still quite necessary for runs through Sunwell or Black Temple but the fights are nowhere near as difficult!
  • Guild Achievements - The Blizzard poster Tigole said on the beta suggestion forums this week that the developers are very interested in the idea of Guild achievements and they plan to visit them in the future. I personally think this would be really cool, but there would be a ton of things to iron out like what to do if someone switches guilds…do they take the achievements with them? So it will be interesting to see what they come up with for this.

  • Dude, Where’s my Title? - Well, here’s a nice little oops for ya, the season 4 arena titles were awarded incorrectly! From the tippy-top teams getting only the title of "Duelist" when they should be receiving "Brutal Gladiator" and the Netherdrake pets to players with a 2100 rating earning only the "Challenger" title. Blizzard is investigating the problem and will hopefully have it all sorted out shortly.

  • Product Spotlight - Penn’s Ultimate Professions Guide has recently been updated to include the new Inscription Profession including farming maps, recipes in the order you should make them, how to make tons of gold with ANY profession. This guide is well written and easy to follow and works for both factions. Try it out today for only $29.95, with a 30 day money back guarantee you have nothing to lose!

World of Warcraft Miniature Game

Filed under WoW News

“This is what you will get when you purchase the World of Warcraft Miniatures”

You have played World of Warcraft online. Perhaps it is also time to add more fun to your gaming experience with the new World of Warcraft Miniatures. You might be asking, ‘what is that?’. It is simple, imagine board games. Now, imagine the characters come to life in the miniature model form. There are action cards to add more sizzle to the game. Overall this is what you should be playing when you are not playing WOW online.

The theme: Based on the incredibly popular MMO of the same name.

Playing first time: If you have been playing WOW online you should have an idea of what the rules and regulations are. However, if you are new to WOW/have never heard of WOW before, then you will have to ask for a demo and read the rules and regulations before you play in order for the game to make sense.

The stuff included: dice looks a bit cheap, maps are bigs so you get more excitement as you play, the sculptors are excellent quality and design and cards are of standard size.

Overall, this is a great game especially if you have been a WOW fan and also playing WOW online. If you are a newbie, don’t worry because soon you will be catching the WOW fever and join in the league with the other fanatics.

Leaked Manual in Wrath of The Lich King Patch

Have you got the latest patch for Wrath of The Lich King. If you do, then hurray for you as most of the fans have found out that there is a manual for Wrath of The Lich King in the patch documents. 

If you check the  C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\Data\enUS\Documentation, you will be able to see a document by the name: Manual_WLK.pdf

This is where the mystery lies.  You will find a copy of black and white manual that contains an outdated manual but there are a few surprises such as cool arts, credits and shout outs to the contributors. 

It was first discovered by Maeglin of Khadgar in WOW forum on 18/10/08. 

Since then, thousands of fans made the same discovery in their latest patch and of course most of them are happy to have the manual included.  

However, this is not the final manual as we expect the final to be coloured when it is printed. Still, this is a good finding and something for you to hang on to while waiting for the real stuff coming out real soon.

Fishing To Earn Gold In World of warcraft

As a Mage in my early levels, I thought the secondary art of ‘Fishing’ a complete waste of time. However, putting aside the idea of Fishing and continued my daily grind for experience is definitely wasting time because I can make even more Gold if I have known that fishing can help me to earn more Gold.

Now I’m about to impart an important gold making tip: there’s Warcraft gold to be made from the secondary profession of Fishing. For just a few copper coins you can purchase the skill of fishing from many a trainer throughout the land of Azeroth. You must then purchase a fishing pole.

Now a word in your ear, for here’s a tip. Don’t listen to those big girls the Elves, for when it comes to fishing, size surely does matter. The bigger your fishing pole the better as this will give you an advantage. Listen instead to the Horde in this matter. ‘It takes a big one to catch a big one!’ It’s well known that the Horde like to catch really big fish which they use as an off-hand weapon.

So, fork out and buy a Strong Fishing pole, as this will give you a fishing advantage. It also comes in handy for beating any Murloc over the head with, should one wander by and disturb your concentration.

Now the products of fishing are- well fish. But not always, for as your skill advances your chances of catching the odd loot locker increases along with other items of use and value. The fish can be eaten raw, but provide better sustenance if cooked, greatly adding to the health and stamina qualities of the food. The smoking of Sagefish for example provides the food with Mana. Any surplus cooked fish can be sold in the Auction House or used to feed your pet.

Now it’s easy to level-up the fishing profession. Just find a body of water and cast your bobber. Within a few minutes you will have caught some fish and increased in level. With increasing experience, you will be able to fish more zones (higher zones require a higher skill in fishing) and catch a wider variety of fish. Many of these fish can be cooked (thus increasing your cooking skill) or eaten, and some are required as ingredients in alchemical recipes and thus in demand in the Auction House.

Remember, fishing is a way to earn Gold and you should explore more in the areas to expand your Gold making experience.

Patch For Wrath of The Lich King

A pre-release patch for Wrath of The Lich King will be available in the coming weeks. This is similar to what Blizzard did before the release of The Burning Crusade.

Among the content in the patch are:

  • New class spells and talents
  • Stormwind Harbor
  • Barbershops in capital cities
  • Zeppelin towers outside of Orgrimmar and Tirisfal Glades
  • Two brand-new Arenas featuring challenging new layouts, terrain hazards, and moving obstacles
  • Guild calendar
  • Hunter pet skill revamp
  • New profession: Inscription

Of course, these are the most anticipating changes and features of the game. However, one thing is for sure, this is not the end yet. There should be more features and changes coming out before the release of Wrath of The Lich King expansion pack.

For the Burning Crusade players, you will be able to select Inscription as one of the two professions and level up to a skill level of 375 with it. With the release of Wrath of The Lich King, those who purchase and install the expansion will be able to continue their leveling in Inscription, as well as other professions, even beyond 375.
