This Sunday Everlightly will be running the first of many Gold DKP runs on Emerald Dream, below is his post from the Official forums explaining how it all works and how you can be involved.
Devil’s Advocate: Epic not really Epic
Eh? Epic not really epic? They look purple to me… Oh I see! You meant in the “They’re so common, they’re not epic anymore” category. Ah right… But how and why? Let’s look at that.
Once upon a time instance bosses dropped greens, not blues. Rares were pretty damn rare and epics were unheard of. Someone who had an epic was the centre of attention with everyone inspecting him and patting him on the back and ooing and aahing over how much of an awesome player he must be to have gotten an epic.
What changed? Most would argue it’s that the game has gotten easier and epics are being handed out like candy. But is that what really happened? Or is there more to it?
The Soapbox: How Old Are You Again?
How many times have you seen someone you know to be an adult, acting in a way you’d expect from a 5 year old? I’m willing to bet it’s at least a few. I had an all too brief holiday last week and returned, relaxed and generally optimistic, to a hail of whispers from friends and fellow guild leaders ranting about the various dramas since I’d been away. A couple of weeks ago most of this drama would have seemed commonplace, but with the clarity of time away I came to realise that the way people act in this game often makes literally no sense at all.
Do These Trousers Make Me Look Phat?
Quirks of WoW will explore often-overlooked but quite frankly strange phenomena in the World of Warcraft, from cross-dressing to all-out sexchanges.
Men’s Obsession With Clothes in WoW
Dear Men of WoW,
Yes, they are clothes. You are wearing them on your body. Ok, so they are made from chain mail or steel or leather, but they are clothes nonetheless. You even have rings on and a necklace. It’s a very pretty necklace despite the fact that it’s called the Jagged Neck Splicer of Doom. And that trinket looks like a sparkly little dangly brooch. Something Great Aunt Thelma willed to you.
Our Survey Says: Fashion Sense
Everyone wants their toon to look cool, to have matching gear and huge glowy weapons that they’d never be able to even lift in real life. All too often, Blizzard disappoint us with mismatched colours and truly hideous helm models. Question is, how far will you go to avoid them?
