BlizzCaps: Not a shrinking violet
Submitter Savvymark of Hyjal (US-H) was trying to solo 25-man heroic Icecrown Citadel when she was felled by a spear thrown by Sister Svalna.
Know Your Lore: The Future of the Draenei
One of the things I've loved this expansion is playing a draenei in it. Getting to see what Draenor looked like before the orcs committed genocide on the draenei has been awesome, and the draenei story in Shadowmoon Valley and Talador (including Auchindoun) was one of my favorite parts of any expansion. In fact, some of my disappointment with the game's max level content has been a lack of continuation of that very story. We got to see Yrel become an Exarch, and that I was happy about, but aside from that I've really felt like we've missed out. I wanted a raid where I helped the Sha'tar retake Shattrath, for example. I wanted to get to see what's going on up at Farahlon. I'm hopeful we'll still get to see this stuff, because for me all the quality story beats in Warlords of Draenor have been the draenei
On flying and World of Warcraft
Okay. I've been mulling this one over since Ion Hazzikostas' interview this week. And it's not going to make me a lot of friends, I expect. So best to just rip the band-aid off and go for it.
BlizzCaps: Identity fraud
My cellmate was right. The Black Temple is a great place to hang out when the guards are after you. It's practically deserted! All I had to do is kill the dude with the blindfold and the sweet daggers, and now I've got this rooftop apartment all to myself.

BlizzCaps: An antiquated taxonomy
"Minaithelan of Spectacular Death on Llane (US-A) kept telling us the pet food he was being sent was a bit 'off'," writes guild leader Gimmlette.
The Warrior’s Charge: Patch 6.2 and itemization
It's practically a song at this point. Sing it with me — warriors are gear dependent, gear dependent, gear dependent, warriors are gear dependent, and we love crit. Pretty much all warrior specs love crit: Prot likes it, arms likes it, fury wants to make delicious movie love to it all night long.
Plaguebearer: Chains of Sindragosa
The term "Chains of Sindragosa" refers to a Blood DK playstyle that, as the name might suggest, involves the Breath of Sindragosa talent. Utilizing a combination of our Multistrike attunement and the Icy Runes glyph (specifically the large amounts of Runic Power that both generate), this playstyle aims to enable a Blood DK to maintain Breath of Sindragosa indefinitely during raid encounters.
BlizzCaps: Who was that masked man?
Okay, I'm guessing this might be a reference to Half-Life or Halo or one of those other games that I never got around to playing in high school, but to me, this looks like a ghost person brandishing an axe. So you know what that means. That's right. FALLOUT 4 CONFIRMED.
Breakfast Topic: What’s your most complicated achievement?
In Wrath of the Lich King, achievements seemed to permeate the entire World of Warcraft.
