Matthew Rossi @MatthewWRossi — Matthew Rossi is a synapsid, perhaps descended from Cynognathus. He was born in Providence, Rhode Island, and grew up there before leaving to see the world and be mistaken for a sasquatch and/or minor singing celebrity in various locales. He currently lives and writes in Edmonton alongside his amazing and beautiful wife and their cats. He’s written three collections of speculative fiction, Things That Never Were, Bottled Demon and At Last, Atlantis. He loves playing warriors in World of Warcraft, barbarians in Diablo III, and he’s beginning to notice a pattern here.


The Queue: Still enjoying being a Tauren

I’m starting to think that Warlords of Draenor scratched my Draenei itch so completely that I may need to play Tauren as my main in Warlords. I tanked on a Prot Warrior for our Alpha stream this week and I had a good time with it, even if it feels like Prot desperately needs an on-demand self heal (at present it lacks one) and a bit more bite in terms of offense. The Artifact quest for Prot got a little harder with the most recent set of changes — I basically had to spec Second Wind and spend a lot of time stunning everything with Shockwave and running away until Second Wind healed me up.

But this isn’t a Warrior post, so let’s talk about your questions. Spoiler warning is in full effect. Also, please don’t talk about the new Star Wars movie. Some folks are really excited to see it, let’s not wreck that for them.

Tauren are awesome.
