World of Warcraft: Death Knight at 90 and Moving Shaman Up
I managed to hit level 90 earlier on my death knight. I figured that it was important to get a few more toons up to 90 before the next patch hits just to start preparing them. I quickly got some PVP gear, along with the 476 chest piece and the crafted 2 handed weapon. Also,…

Okay, probably I won’t go much into depth about Patch 5.1 considering that the most I’ve dealt with in that patch is the new dailies. But I would like to review the current game since Patch 5.2 is coming out in a week or so. So far we’ve been introduced to a new continent with…
