Battle.net Accounts!
So Blizzard appears to be moving in a more unified direction! Yesterday they announced the expansion of their Battle.net service. It looks like they're setting things up so that going forward you can log into WoW, Diablo III, Starcraft II, and all their upcoming betas with a single set of login information.
This is all well and good, of course, but what I'm
really
excited about is the ability to keep track of your CD Keys for
earlier
games, which will let you download and play games like Diablo II and Warcraft III on any computer. Anyone who's been a regular reader of this blog will know that this is an exciting prospect for me personally. Just be careful with your account information!
You can set up your Battle.net account here:
http://us.battle.net/account/creation/landing.xml
More info can be found on the Battle.net FAQ here:

The full announcement is after the break!

Tier 8 Bonuses and Other Goodies
This, ladies and gentlemen, is the moment we have all been waiting for! The Tier8 armor sets for all the classes are no longer mystery. We now know how the sets look like, how they are named, but more importantly - what bonuses they give us!
Check the
Turtlenecks Are In This Year
for a video and some information about the way the sets look!
But before we move to the sets, there is a little teaser I would like to toss in here. Remember how at the end of each Arena Season the top teams were rewarded a Nether Drake mount with 310% bonus speed? Well, the reward for the next Arena Season is going to be a
Deadly Gladiator's Frostwyrm

Wowhead Comic #14
Sorry folks, didn't have the time to make a full length comic this week. Busy busy busy!
But, as I had so much fun with the Boomkitty, I decided to go the other route.
Meet Mr. Bearhealz!
I wish I could draw more of these with other classes, but the druid forms were just so flexible..
Anyhoo. I stuck them together and made a
wallpaper

Dark Riders, Tree Branches, & Evil Dudes--Oh, My!
My goal in writing entries such as this remains simple: to encourage readers to get back in the game and do those quests they never even knew existed, to explore and go where no other has so boldly gone before, and to come back here to tell us about their experiences or interpretations. If you like reading these entries help spread the word--it's bird! Er, blog--I MEAN BLOG! Tell your friends about our blog!
In my last entry I covered a lot of information concerning the history and origins of worgen. There is a plethora of lore surrounding the worgen and I fear we only got a glimpse of it last time. Follow along this week as we tackle the Dark Riders, Scythe of Elune, and some sinister wizard-wannabes, the likes of which you've always hated when leveling up. Ugh!

New & Changed Icons in Patch 3.1 (Build 9684)
What does a new PTR build mean? Exciting icon changes, of course. In this new build (3.0.1.9684),
73

19

All these icons are visible by browsing achievements, items, spells etc. on the site—but we thought you might appreciate having them all in one place for browsing. :)

So for those of you who have been following

Mommy, Where Does QQ Come From?
A little while ago I had a conversation with a user that got me thinking.
He was talking for a bit about how he didn't want Wowhead to turn into WowSpace, and that while he granted that the forums were a great addition to Wowhead, he also expressed frustration about troll posters, feeling that they caused the Wowhead forums to bring the overall quality of Wowhead down, rather than up.
Now, I don't mean to suggest that this user was QQing. He was expressing his honest opinion and I respect him for it. But it started to make me think about the nature of people, and why we complain about the things we do.

What a Long, Strange Trip It's Going To Be
It appears that on the latest PTR build, Blizzard has removed the
Brew of the Year
achievement from the list of requirements for the
Brewmaster
meta-achievement—and by extension, for the mega-achievement
What A Long, Strange Trip It's Been
. Death Knights now no longer have to wait until 2010 for their shot at the

This is coming hot on the heels of another PTR change which was announced some time earlier regarding the
Fool For Love
meta-achievement (which, like the
Brewmaster
achievement, grants a title). For those of you who missed it, the notorious
Be Mine!
achievement which spawned so much drop-rate related controversy, has been nerfed: You now only need to find six[

There's No Such Thing as a Cheap Lunch
I feel like I might have been a little too down on PvP last time, so I'd like to continue my Street Fighter metaphor from my
last post
. To that end, I have a shocking revelation for many of you:
“Being cheap” doesn't exist in competitive games.
I, like everyone else, have fallen repeatedly to rogues in PvP situations where I've been simply stunlocked from 100% health until I die, and frequently even by rogues that have worse gear or are lower level than me, just like I've lost against people in Street Fighter that do nothing but jump kick/sweep.
We all know that classes have had balance issues in the past, and will continue to have balance issues in the future (though some might argue they're worse now than they have been), Blizzard isn't perfect, but when you get demolished in PvP by a Death Knight, ask yourself: Do you say, “Oh, well, it's a DK, so it doesn't count” or do you say, “Hmm, okay, what can I do differently next time to increase my odds of winning?”

Title Status: Achieved!
I remember back in first days of Patch 3.0 and Wrath of the Lich King, when all the new titles were introduced, and all the fuss they created—all of a sudden people were rushing back to the old world, farming reputation, running instances...it was madness (
"Madness? This...is...WotLK!"
). I remember how I was digging through forums and websites, looking for all the titles, trying to learn whatever I can.
So now, a few months later, when everything is settled down, I decided to compose a nice little summary of all the obtainable titles. Just to make things easier for everybody else who, like me, decides to go and dedicate hours and hours to something, just so they can have a little something next to their name.

Worgen - E.D. With Attitude
They are fearless. They are many. They are entire dimensions from home.
I'm talking about worgen, a race of wolf-men creatures which somewhat contrast the nature-loving furbolg (read about those furries
here
). Worgen are extra-dimensional creatures, as best our undead friends can tell, which exist for the sole purpose of destroying anything and everything they encounter. They were thought to be tame, or at least tame enough to be controlled for the purposes of good, but the worgen secretly mutinied against their new found masters.
Despite differences between furbolg, worgen, and myself there's one thing we all share in common—
we're really hungry!

Wowhead: PTR 3.1 Site Now Available!
If you look at the top left corner of your screen, you may notice a little something new!
In the past, Wowhead has automatically added PTR content and changes to the live version of the site--which enables people to start planning right away, but unfortunately has caused no end of confusion. Considering how big this patch is (and how long we still have to go before it goes live), we're doing things differently this time. :)
Just like when we had a separate site for live servers and for WotLK back when it was in beta, we now have a separate site for live WoW servers and for the PTR. Any time there is a new patch available on the PTRs, you'll be able to get data from the new patch by going to
ptr.wowhead.com
. Just click the link in the corner to switch back and forth between the live and PTR sites!
This includes special features, like the
3.1 talent calculator
, as well as the
3.1 hunter pet calculator
. Go take a look!
