  • Diablo 3: Monster Power vs Paragon Leveling vs Item Farming

    I’ve watched a few videos on using Monster Power for leveling. The mathematics essentially demonstrate the efficiency of using say MP1 as opposed to MP4 in terms of XP/hour. The justification is that higher monsters have greatly increased health, which takes longer to kill as opposed to the calculated amount of experience. So my theory…

  • Why the Switch to Diablo 3

    I mentioned that I switched from playing World of Warcraft to Diablo 3. The main thing obviously is that I got serious burn out from the dailies. I absolutely hate dailies. Logging into World of Warcraft and thinking about accepting a daily quest literally makes me want to puke. So I still needed to get…

  • World of Warcraft: How Dailies Burnt Me Out

    For the past two weeks, I’ve neglected to do my dailies in World of Warcraft. In fact, I’ve barely logged on to do anything. The most I’ll do is LFR and the Sha of Anger. Outside of that, I’ve found the game to have become really boring because the content and progression have primarily become…

  • Diablo 3 Expansion Announced

    Since I’ve been playing Diablo 3 far more than World of Warcraft lately, the breaking news of Diablo 3 caught my attention. I’ve read a few reactions online, but I want to take a moment to offer some suggestions based on my experience in Diablo 3. The current progression in patches for Diablo 3 seem…

  • World of Warcraft: Cross Realm Zones, the Clusterfuck

    Patch 5.0.4 went into a effect two weeks ago and already patch 5.0.5 is scheduled for tomorrow. Part of it ought to address the clusterfuck called Cross Realm Zones (or CRZ). As always, Blizzard completely underestimated their gaming community when implementing CRZ and it’s become a gigantic mess. I won’t go into details about why…

  • World of Warcraft: Give it to the Community

    The latest patch demonstrates the problems with an online game like World of Warcraft. The main problem is that the game forces you to upgrade, whether you want to or not. If you don’t buy the latest expansion, you’ll be screwed because you’ll be behind. And if you do not want to partake in the…

  • World of Warcraft Mist of Pandaria Release Date Announced and Preparation Suggestions

    The magic date is September 25, 2012. Right now, the PTR is getting ready for what seems to be a major pre-release just before the expansion comes out with a major event to set into motion the next expansion. I believe the first of the raids as well as pet battles have been implemented and…

  • World of Warcraft: Druid Now Has the 4 Piece Set

    I got lucky with two rolls tonight on my druid. One, which really isn’t as pertinent, is the Wrath of Unchaining trinket. Someday, I might attempt to gear as feral. Ironically, her feral gear actually is quite good and may make her a contender as a future bear tank. After completing LFR part 2 with…

  • Why Mike Preach is Wrong About Blizzard’s Direction

    Mike Preach has a video on youtube explaining his thoughts on why Blizzard’s direction for World of Warcraft is wrong. Part of his belief is that the game is becoming too easy and that by making content harder, it’ll improve the overall player base and attract better players. Let me preface this article by saying…

  • World of Warcraft: Add My Rogue to the List

    On Sunday, my rogue hit level 85. Unfortunately, because it was kinda late, I did not have a chance to run through the entire HoT Heroics to build up enough Valor Points to get her throwing weapon nor procure enough gear to hit LFR. However, the good thing was that the reset occurred today so…
