  • World of Warcraft: Throne of Thunder LFR Guide (for the Uber Casual DPS Player) Part 1

    Somehow as the ultimate casual player who has a shitty inactive guild, no one to play with, lacks friends online to do any activities with yet somehow has managed to hit ilvl 480 and wanted to check out this Throne of Thunder LFR thing, this is the ultimate guide for you. You’ve already been vote…

  • World of Warcraft: DPS Class/Spec Review for Patch 5.3

    Mike Preach has come up with some interesting videos discussing whether you should roll a certain class or not. I felt inspired by a lot of his commentary and wanted to throw my two cents into the mix by examining the DPS roles of classes and specs I’ve played in this expansion so far. Retribution…

  • World of Warcraft: Some Cheap Tricks to Get Easy Stuff at Level 90

    I consider myself a casual and lazy player. But not lazy as in “I just want to sit on my ass and be handed stuff while sleeping and eating pizza simultaneously.” Lazy as in “I want to play smart with doing minimal effort but maximizing what I can do with my time.” Sometimes, I feel…

  • World of Warcraft: My Top/Bottom 5 Looking for Raids for Mist of Pandaria

    Okay, so it’s list-a-mania time. I wanted to list out my favorite/most hated raids thus far in this expansion. I’m going to not include world raid bosses, although Oondasta has to be the one where I’d love to permanently punch the designers face in, if you can imagine that. Regardless, this comes after mindlessly doing…

  • World of Warcraft: Pre-Throne of Thunder Raids Loot System Broken After Patch 5.3?

    I noticed something once patch 5.3 came in: the loot drop rate feels like they’re back before patch 5.2. I don’t know if Blizzard has bothered testing whether or not the loot drop rate is still at the new level but it’s pretty bad again. Hopefully, enough players will complain to Blizzard because I’m seeing…

  • World of Warcraft: Why LFR and “Welfare Epics” Will Stay

    There’s been an incredible amount of heated debate on the World of Warcraft forums where two factions have essentially created two stances around terms of LFR and the notion of “welfare epics.” The issue here is that one group (also known as “casuals”) are the ones that, of course, want these items while the other…

  • World of Warcraft: The Dangers of Loot Specialization

    While the loot specialization has it’s obvious perks, it also has its downside if you’re not careful. One of the things that can happen to you is forgetting to switch back to your original spec. This already happened to me a few times, even earning me gear that I wish could’ve gone towards my main…

  • World of Warcraft: The Absolute Necessary Feature for LFR

    Today, I experienced a rather disheartening DC where the servers just randomly shutdown while I was in an instance. At first, I thought it was my cable modem or router freaking out again, but it turned out that the problem was Blizzard’s server instability issue. The thing though was that I was at Dark Animous…

  • World of Warcraft: How to Gear Up Fast in Patch 5.3

    Gearing up in the current patch has never been easier. There’s so many ways to do the catch up whether it’s running Heroics, doing Scenarios, buying loot, etc. But the thing is that you can really push through and get close to meeting the minimal requirements for the Throne of Thunder raid with some short…

  • World of Warcraft: What Mist of Pandaria Got Right/Wrong

    Now, that patch 5.3 had some time to settle in and with certain talks about 5.4, I think we can say that the expansion probably is getting close to the finish line. Everyone expects the Garrosh raid to most likely be the finale for Mist of Pandaria in terms of content. If that’s the case,…
