http://www.wow.com/2010/09/15/cataclysm-beta-guild-ranks-can-be-set-to-require-authenticator/ This has to be possibly the single killer change for Guild leaders in Cataclysm, forget guild perks, forget the extra gold flowing into the bank without having to do anything.  Mass summoning, a gimmick nothing more. Allowing guild ranks to be setup to require an authenticator, now this is something special, no accessing the…

So, as various commentators have pointed out I missed a few things while writing my last piece on Wrath. Raiding (or the little ones I forgot) Obsidian Sanctum A simple enough raid, kill the mini-bosses, nuke the big boss, control the adds and dodge the (moving) bad.  I like the simplicity of engaging the various…

So looking at the team, we have the following U10 capable toons, those I think are the most likely candidates are flagged blue, there are also some combinations which are impossible as there are less people than toons in the list (for example Korenwolf / Unferth / Wubbles are all on the same account) Tanks…

At the moment we’re fielding around eight players (having the two newest guild members around is helping massively, though pretty much everything which drops is an upgrade for…

“Old weather flying” will have a cost, currently pitched at 250g (pretty trivial to reach), so this is more of a “we’re going to make sure you see it as something to aim for” rather than “Gold Sink!”.  It’s almost certain that you’ll only be able to learn this skill with the Cata expansion pack. …

Yes boys and girls, you heard it right.  Meathook kicked us in the collective and we failed on the timed run in CoS Heroic.  “How can this happen” “noobs!” and so on I hear coming over the tangled wires of the interwebs.  Simple enough, we actually went in with a tank which was appropriately geared…

After a week spent in a hotel in Birmingham being part of the horde which runs the Discworld convention (more on that in another post) I’m back at work and sorting out the normal things which need doing, such as making sure anyone who wanders past has something vaguely interesting to look at. Not much…
