WoW
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.
World of Warcraft hotfixes for May 22
A new batch of hotfixes for patch 6.1.2 have been released just in time for the weekend. Included are some Blackrock Foundry changes, including an adjustment to Blackhand that will require a realm restart -- Slag Bombs' explosion radius has been reduced from 10 to 6 yards in both Normal and Heroic difficulty.
Know Your Lore: Welcome to the machine
What I really enjoyed about Welcome to the Machine is that for a moment it took you out of that role of adventuring hero, and put you in the NPC position. It was an amazing, wonderful, weird quest, and I still consider it one of the highlights of the Cataclysm expansion. As much as I love the quest, though, I didn't really want an entire expansion of it.
