Warcraft

If you play Dragonflight mostly solo, gearing up a character can be tough, whether you're just finishing your journey to level 70 for the first time, or you're about to gear up your fifth Warrior alt.

Like WoW Classic and Burning Crusade Classic before it, Wrath of the Lich King Classic starts at a late patch (3.3.5) in terms of balance and class changes, but game content will roll out over the course of five phases, as well as a prepatch interval I’m terming “phase zero.” It mimics the original game release to an extent, but there will be some items whose availability will be unlocked as well over the course of the phases.

Wrath of the Lich King Classic's second phase of content is bringing back some familiar, highly anticipated activities and while some of these won't arrive exactly as some players remember them, one aspect will be entirely new -- Titan Rune Dungeons.

Wrath Classic's second of five phases --launching today, January 17 -- is expected to bring content originally delivered in patch 3.1, including the Ulduar raid and the Argent Tournament Grounds, as well as Season 6 of PVP.

There's a fair amount of content in World of Warcraft, and the modern game goes to some lengths to keep it at least relatively relevant with "Chromie Time" campaigns.

Do you still remember the first World of Warcraft character you've ever rolled?

It's been a few months since Phase 1 of Wrath of the Lich King Classic went live, giving players the opportunity to complete Naxxramas, The Obsidian Sanctum, The Eye of Eternity, and Vault of Archavon as they journey through Northrend.

World of Warcraft has existed in a post-Cataclysm world for longer now than it did in a pristine world, untouched by Deathwing.

I have seen the future, and the future is Murloc!

Video games have come a long way in the decades since Pong and Pac-man, but one thing they've always tried to do is tell a story.
