"After a long day of fishing up lunkers and Lunarfall Carp, you just want to go take a nice long nap back at the garrison," writes submitter Arugadh of Deep Forest Caravan on Wyrmrest Accord (US-A).

Do you have any monuments in your garrison? If so, which one?

"Apparently, shaman get hungry and lazy while in Ghost Wolf form," writes submitter Zadji of Pirate Scum on Suramar (US-A). "Instead of burning calories schlepping around Talador himself, Zadji hopped on a talbuk taxi and, at some point during the ride, decided to see if he could snack on a bit of talbuk brain."

Depending on how closely you’ve been following coverage of the patch 6.2 PTR, it may come as a surprise that my column today doesn’t focus on Death Knight changes, tier sets, and other goodies such as trinkets and legendary rings. This isn’t because I’ve been neglecting my own investigations into the patch - far from it!

Hey! Our gnome jokes on this column are sophisticated and refined, not stupid. And if you say otherwise, I will fight you in the pit.

I remember what my Shaman and my Paladin looked like in their first few days of existence after The Burning Crusade, but I have to be content with memories; I can't show anyone.

A new Warlords of Draenor short story was released earlier this evening, and its a good one. Apocrypha was written by Matt Burns, whose other works include Bleeding Sun and The Jade Hunters from the Destination: Pandaria faction series. This tale however, involves the arakkoa, which automatically puts it near the top of the list for favorite short stories as far as I'm concerned.

Now, this is still fairly early in the patch cycle, so it's hard to make assumptions based on these notes. Big changes could pop up at any time. But as things stand right now, apparently Blizzard thinks warriors are pretty well off going into patch 6.2. And the thing is, I'd probably have to agree with them. Warriors work, for the most part.

One could argue that by the end of the events that play out in 6.0 and 6.1, the Iron Horde has been effectively shut down, backs against the wall, leaving them with no other apparent alternative than to turn to tactics they weren't originally going to use. But the one thing we haven't done is really look at the situation and ask ourselves -- why the Iron Horde to begin with?
