Blizzcon 2010: In Game Item Announced!
Aug 25th
Today Blizzard announced the Blizzcon in-game item, and it turns out to be Deathy. A murlock skinned like Deathwing with that great big iron jaw. Now we haven’t seen his animations yet, but I think he’s got potential.
I’m a little disappointed as I was hoping for a mount this year, but I suppose I’ll live.
My only thing is that Blizzard seems to be taking this Deathwing theme a little too far. After all, the Collectors Edition will come with Mini-Deathwing for a mini pet, and this murloc is basically the same thing, just with legs and no More >
The future’s in the air…

I can feel it everywhere blowing with the wind of change. – Scorpions, “Wind of Change”
Nope. Still not in Cataclysm Beta. That’s okay though!
There’s been lots of news that’s come out of the last few Beta Builds that I haven’t talked about, mostly out of anger in not being in the Beta, but I digress.
Before I dive into the most recent Hunter changes for Cataclysm, wanted to give you all an update on where I’ve been lately, and why so sparse posting.
Awhile back, I mentioned that I’m now on the Horde side, running as an Orc with one of the top guilds More >

Thoughts on Guild Reputation
Aug 2nd
This is a Shared Topic over at Blog Azeroth as suggested by Anexxia at Bible of Dreams.
Dislcaimer: By no means is this a leak from Cataclysm beta (something I’m not involved with just yet), this is merely opinion of how you can best gain/lose reputation with your guild.
With Cataclysm it is bringing obvious changes — class changes, new races, and a myriad of others, but one that piqued my interest is Guild Perks and Guild Reputation.
There’s absolutely no telling at this point what is actually going to impact your Guild Reputation, but I’m sure it will have to do with your More >

Hunter Strategy: Ruby Sanctum
Jul 30th
I finally got into a Ruby Sanctum Kill, huzzah!
I’m not going to get into the 3 mini-bosses that you have to kill before you get to Halion, but there are many guides out there on the internet, including Tankspot that will walk you through it.
Now you’ve killed the mini-bosses, and you’re facing big purple meanie himelf.
What’s he do? Let’s break it down into his 3 phases:
Phase 1: (Physical Realm)
- Twilight Precision – Increases Halion’s chance to hit by 5% and decreases all players’ chance to dodge by 20%.
- Flame Breath – Inflicts 26,250 to 33,750 Fire damage to players in front of Halion.
- Meteor Strike – Inflicts More >
