World of Warcraft: Priest Hits 90 and Starts LFR Runs Almost Immediately
So my plan for leveling and gearing my priest up mostly worked. The leveling process in the end was a pretty big headache. It felt like it took far too long and I ended up doing more quests than on my rogue. Not sure if there’s an experience discrepancy between the two classes, but I…

World of Warcraft: Last Level 90 in My Priest on the Way
Since this week is the last for the summer festival event, my friend pointed out that he was trying to get a few toons to at least level 90 just to obtain the cape (and possibly weapon). After struggling a bit to get my rogue geared initially, I decided that any possible help to get…

World of Warcraft: Rogue at 90 But Massively Frustrated Again

World of Warcraft: Was Wrath of the Lich King the Best Expansion?

People criticized the instances as being too easy, ICC as allowing casuals to participate, allowing people to purchase gear using badges and even some of the dumbed down quest design.…

Game Streamers and My Pet Peeves
Normally, I try to say positive things about streamers I enjoy following. However, I was one particular person (who I won’t name here) and some of his actions really made me disgusted.
