Let me take a minute of your time in between my follow-up on our night out and talk to you some about the stupidity of mankind and what it has turned World of Warcraft into.

When and how did World of Warcraft go from a game to a money-making machine?

A picture for the feed.

WoW



But lets start from the beginning.

This struck me as I was checking out a .NET forum, and noticed how they had added a section regarding Windows Mobile.

"I wonder if I can do anything sweet in this" I asked myself.

I went to Google…  More
Even though I hate writing multiple entries about the same topic, my recent entry about Druid and Priest night out (link) was fairly successful, and as we, only a couple of weeks after, decided to have a guild-meeting as our DK was coming up to Stockholm, I decided to recap that night in the same spirit.

Profila

So here we go. This is Lårviken Hjältar. (In translation: Thighbay's heroes. To you kiddies out there (paperkat), no, it's not a city)

So, me and Profila mounted up rather early to pick our DK up …  More

Today when I got home from 'what noone cares about' I figured 'Better check the guildchat to see what ***s was online at a time like this".

Turns out, quite a lot was online.

So I started talking... Profila was on his alt, so we chatted a bit, and then there was also a couple of others who seemed to be playing arena at the time.

As me and Profila got bored of trolling each other and random-scurbs in the WG-general we started trolling the arena-guys. After a couple of sentences without replies we we…  More

This is just going to be a short entry about an idea/suggestion that just popped in to my head. No irony, no jokes, no sarcasm.

This should have been suggested before, but as far as I can recall, it hasn't.

Remove the personal rating, and let personal MMR take it's place.

Personal rating was added with the rating-requirement to gear in order to stop people from entering a team just to buy the gear.

It was also a good addition to stop team-jumping in times where team-jumping was bad since scrubs had …  More

So this is the epic tale containing everything from old-schools russian players on EU servers, to the diversity of 1800 vs 2k+ rated teams. It's a tale of WoWers in the clubs, and the finitive answer to the question "Are every WoWer really a nerd?"

Tonight I will tell you the story about mine and Profila's night out....

Woa!

Yes, my phone-camera kinda sucks. That's Profila and the russian you'll soon hear about though.

Lets get started!
So as usual we had a hard time getting started. Apparantly it's sund…  More

As everyone knows, up in the 3k bracket where the really cool players play it's all about min-maxing. Unless you're a DK you won't get there with random silences and button-mashing.

So, as most people don't play at this rating, they havn't really considered all min-maxing a true PvPer must make every time a new patch comes. Just like any pro athlete, a real player must adjust to any change made to his sport.

There's a lot of coverage on the major changes, so I won't comment those, today I will ins…  More

I have a major problem.
The amount of blogs on GR have been low the last couple of days, and thus this interferes with my day to day work, since I basically don't have **** to do. I refuse to read AJ n' the official forums are just bleh when you're banned and can't troll them. (I went on a Warlock-crusade not to long ago. Mods didn't seem to appreciate it. But I was a mage, what was I supposed to do?)

So, to sort this little problem of mine out, I decided to set out and write the greatest entry ev…  More
So I got one of my Blizzard-sources really drunk yesterday, and he started to spill the beans.

Apparantly, for S7, Blizzard has some sweet plans for a new VoA-monster that will also make up for the loss of weap/title/shoulders from the 2v2.

Serennias promotion of DKs on Blizz behalf seems to finally have payed of as hes going to history as... Yes, you guessed it...

Serennion!

The new VoA-monster Serennion

Apparantly Blizzard felt it was a sweet addition to VoA.

It has been said that the encounter is b…  More

Everyone knows that for millenniums, women have been the root of all evil. Equations, logic proofs and the church have all confirmed it.

Woman

However, it looks like we're coming to a new era in terms of evil.

Suddenly, when taking a closer look at the Death Knight, we realize that compared to women, women appear as pure as Kintt.

When the new millennium came, some, including Yiska, predicted the end of the world due to a prophecy told by Platon many years ago. Now the real word managed to survive, howev…  More

So it's about time I posted something somewhat half useful here, and I figured, why not share something that literally made me win the healing-meters by 20% in every single 25-pug, and carried me to 2,2k+ rating in hateful gear. (Some may say the class helped here aswell, but w/e).

So if you're an addon-newb, have a new healing-alt or just want to opt your healing even more, this might be worth a read and a tryout.

This caters mainly to Druids and Priests, but could also be useful for Paladins.
