Burning Crusade: Haris Pilton & Tinkerbell

One has got to admit, that Blizzard Dev’s have humour. There are so many Easter Eggs in World of Warcraft already and Burning Crusade Expansion will introduce even more. So You will be able to meet a stylish Haris Pilton and Tinkerbell in the Expansion, as well as Engineer Mack Diver.

Isn’t it strange that a person like Paris Hilton becomes extra attraction in a game like that , maybe its the true path to immortality 😉

A Big Grats to Borked Guild for completing the 3rd Atiesh

With SFX, our Gnome Warlock, Borked Guild has completed the third Atiesh last weekend.

The first Atiesh went to Fs (Druid), followed by Viracocha (Priest). I hope for our mages that the next Atiesh will not take too long.

On a sidenote, thanks to Borked, I have finally been able to get my dreamweapon „the Castigator„.

Too bad that it ended in a little drama, but now there might be an open spot for an experienced Rogue in Borked. You might want to check if you meet the requirements and apply at the Borked Website.

Burning Crusade Beta: Rogue Talent Shadowstep

The 41 point talent in the Rogue subtley tree Cloak of Shadows has been replaced by Shadowstep. Cloak of Shadows, which removes all negative spelleffects on the Rogue and increases his resistance to all spells to 90% for 5 secodns, has been been moved to become a spell for all Rogues.

Cloak of Shadows

To make up for the loss, the subtley tree’s most powerful talent, „Shadowstep“ has been introduced. Basically it teleports the stealthed Rogue, right behind his target, ready for ambush.

There is a nice Video available here.

You have to sacrifice either the increased crit chance, or the increased crit damage bonus if You want to use this talent. On the other hand, 2 shadowstep rogues could cause major havor in PvP.

Burning Crusade Beta: Tier IV Sets on World of Raids

Follow this link to World of Raids to see the new Tier IV sets, that can be obtained in Burning Crusade Expansion. For some classes there are different sets, like a melee Druid Set, a Druid Healer Set, a Shaman Melee-, Shaman Damage- and a Shaman Healing Set.

For Your convenience I have included the Rogue set below:

Dragonstrike, 95 DPS Main Hand Mace 334 Max Damage. Dragonmaw, 88.1 DPS Main Hand Mace, 310 DamageDrakefist Hammer, 81.1 DPS Main Hand Mace, 285 Max Damage

Burning Crusade Beta: Some more items from the TBC Beta

We did the first 2 Instances of the Hellfire Citadel. The atmosphere was pretty nice, the instances not very hard and the loot was decent.

Shifting Sash, Blood Etched Shoulders, Bloodstained Ravager Gauntlets, Auslese Light Channeler
Some Questrewards for killing Bosses in first intance:

Perfectly Balanced cape, Sure-Step Boots
Also I checked the Rogue Trainer in Stormwind, who was selling Eviscerate 9 and Deadly Poison 5 – those can currently only be trained from books that drop in instances. So its nice to know that You do not need to buy those overpriced books if You have patience to wait for release of Burning Crusade.

US Top Guild Overrated – banned

The US-topguild has apparently been permabanned form the Game. As Rumors say about 90% of the players have been removed from the game. Apparently they used a hack to the Client to remove the platfrom of Prophet Skeram in AQ40 to get to C’Thun without some hours of clearing.

While it may seem to be a bit harsh to permaban them from the Game it is the right Signal to give. Using exploits and bugs is simply not worth losing a Character You played hundred of days.

This must be the most fabulous Halloween Costume I have ever seen. I wonder if I could get my Girlfriend to dress up like that 🙂 Seems to be a Nemesis Warlock to me 🙂

With Release of Patch 1.13 Honor will be reset and the new Talents introduced

Due to the delay of the Burning Crusade Expansion Blizzard will introduce a new patch. Patch 1.13 will include some parts of the Expansion. While ther will not be Bloodelfs, Draenei or Level 61+ content Blizzard will give us the new talents and the New Honor System. For that reason the Old Honro System will be completely wiped, and the only thing that will remain is the Rank, which you can show or hide above Your head.

At the World of Raid Forum there is a nice thread with additional information and items (also checkout our screenshot section).
