Hi.

Hunter buffs. Is there a more beautiful combination of words in the English language? Patch 6.1 is coming out in a few short days and it contains a significant amount of specialization and talent balancing for hunters, almost all of it in the form of sweet, glorious buffs. Blizzard did sneak in a couple of nerfs to go along with it, but they aren’t so bad.

Warlords of Draenor ushered our characters back to the world of Draenor -- a slightly altered, different version of Draenor, but Draenor nonetheless.

So I forgot to do my apexis daily yesterday. Honestly, while I am getting back into playing WoW, I really don’t think I can do stuff on an everyday basis. I’m just not that kind of person. Even back when I was raiding hardcore, I really only logged on for raid days. Now that I’m starting to gear up, my inclination is to go right back to that style of play, and it’s definitely at odds with logging on every day for the apexis daily or to get all my followers working on missions. Not sure what to do about that.

Anyway, here’s the Queue. Why is there a picture of an Andrewsarchus up there? Well, here’s the deal – one of the things WoW hasn’t done much of is lost world stuff that isn’t basically  just another dinosaur place, except for Sholozar Basin, which was much more of a this is where proto-drakes and mammoths live place, and it’s always got me thinking that what I’d love to see in WoW is a Savage Land style lost world focused on the Cenozoic. Huge Indricotheres and Hyenaedon and Andrewsarchus everywhere, weird creatures like Chalicotheres (I love those guys, they’re like horses and gorillas at once) – and yes, I’d love an Andrewsarchus mount in WoW.

See, it’s not always dinosaurs. I love me all sorts of prehistoric critters. Bring on Cenozoic Plateau in patch 6.2!

Blizzard games have been in circulation for a long time, and that can mean it's been while between the time you created your first character and today. Over the years, games change, with classes and balance being endlessly tweaked, and what you once played may not seem like fun in its new incarnation.

Hey There Horde Lady is a new song parody machinima with lyrics written by TheMilkMaid and a stellar performance by Youtuber Chorister, a name you might not recognize right off the bat.

Changes are in the works for Apexis Crystals in patch 6.1 -- most notably, the gear on Apexis traders in both Stormshield and Warspear is getting a facelift, and players will now be able to trade up to ilvl 670 items.

Of all 11 classes in WoW, death knights have had the most dramatic evolution. From their beginnings as a supremely flexible "hero class" --with three hybrid trees -- to their current incarnation, DKs have ridden their pale horses a very long way.

The Public Test Realm isn't set up yet, but the Diablo team is offering a sneak peek at the upcoming 2.2.0 patch. In addition to the usual class balance tweaks, new legendary items and sets are being introduced to further diversify class gameplay builds. One special legendary was built by the D3 community through the BlizzCon Legendary Workshop, though it hasn't been named just yet.

The Iron Docks quest hub was one of the more highly anticipated aspects of the upcoming patch 6.1.
