  • World of Warcraft: Throne of Thunder LFR Part 2 Simple Tactics

    Right now, I’ve started to farm part 1 and part 2 as I find them relatively easy compared to the rest of the raid. So I’d like to offer you my experience as a casual player for part 2 as a DPS class. Tortos The first fight will be Tortos. This is essentially the Super…

  • World of Warcraft: Throne of Thunder LFR Part 1 Simple Tactics for DPS

    Right now, I feel quite comfortable in discussing simple tactics in handling the LFR version for Throne of Thunder’s part 1 wing. I’ve read tactics over on WoWHead but some of the write ups for the LFR strategies tend to feel out of date compared to what you may encounter in LFR at the moment.…

  • World of Warcraft: Re-using Legendaries from Mist of Pandaria

    One of the most disappointing things at the moment is how the epic weapons and legendary gem that you spent months farming essentially turn out to be worthless the minute you acquire a better weapon from the Throne of Thunder. While it’s always exciting for new forms of loot to be found, I felt that…

  • World of Warcraft: Which Classes to Stay Away From as a New Player

    In my previous blog, I wrote up a summary of why I felt ranged classes made for a good starting point for new players. Here, I wanted to contrast that idea with classes that you may want to stay away from as a new player. Generally speaking, I advise new players to avoid healing. Healing…

  • World of Warcraft: Boss Mechanics, Farming and LFR

    When patch 5.2 hit, I felt that the game went in the wrong direction, hence why I quit for a bit. One thing I noticed about the fights were the general increasing complexity. While making fights more interesting can be a good thing, I think the developers are wrong because they don’t really understand their…

  • World of Warcraft: Worst Zones

    I saw a thread on the World of Warcraft forums discussing the top 5 worst zones. I am going to list out my worst zones here but this is more for leveling than anything else: Badlands – When they re-did this zone, I was somewhat excited because there wasn’t a lot of quests here originally.…

  • World of Warcraft: Has LFR Ruined Raiding?

    Over on the World of Warcraft forums, there’s a bunch of threads talking about how LFR has ruined raiding. While LFR has its share of problems, I feel that the essence that people believe which is raiding has not been ruined by LFR. There are two aspects I think people refer to when it comes…

  • World of Warcraft: What and When to Use Voidbinders (Item Upgrades)

    With the cost of valor points coming down in patch 5.3 for upgrading items using Voidbinders, you might ask yourself, “Should I start upgrading my items? And if so which ones?” This blog attempts to address some of those questions. One thing I noticed with regards to Mist of Pandaria in its current state is…
