Priest Q&A with Ghostcrawler
It looks like
Illidan Stormrage
was
right—I am not prepared! Who would have guessed Blizzard would release two Q&As in one day? ;)
One of my favorite parts of the interview is that Blizzard's considering removing the "backlash" from
if the target is within "
" range. The other part is that Blizzard wants to make Shadow talents that improve the overall damage of Shadow Priests, so that their damage is not penalized in cases where DoTs are useless. But enough chit-chat—let's get to the interview!
You can read the entire interview after the break, or read the original one linked below:

Rogue Q&A with Ghostcrawler
Much like the rogue class itself, Blizzard decided to be pretty sneaky and release the Rogue Q&A as one of the last class Q&As. Maybe they used some rouge to hide it? :D
For the most, I enjoyed reading the interview. I like that Blizzard admitted that a few aspects are in need of a fix, and that they defended a few decisions which negatively affected rogues. My favorite part of the interview was about
Esfumarse
and its current functionality—but have a look for yourself! You can read the entire interview after the break, or read the original one linked below:

League of Legends Beta! (DotA Fans Rejoice!)
So I don't know how many of your are fans of Warcraft III—I can hope there's at least a small number of you, judging by the comments on my first
Warcraft III related blog
.
Well, anyone out there who played Warcraft III online is likely ALSO to remember
Defense of the Ancients
—there was a good long stretch where nobody I knew would play anything else. :)
Well, all of you DotA fans may be interested to learn that there's a game coming out shortly called
League of Legends
, which is a free to play game based on the DotA mod, and our sister site ZAM.com has got beta keys to give away. If you're a DotA fan from way back, go sign up for the beta giveaway

EDIT:
All the keys have been given out!

Q&A Crusaders' Coliseum + Isle of Conquest
Looks like the class Q&A were popular enough to make Blizzard create non-class Q&A as well :) I don't know about you, but I feel better seeing that all those questions we ask on the forums are being read, and some of them - even answered. Publicly.
This time it's a combined Q&A about the
Crusaders' Coliseum
(the new 5-, 10-, and 25-man dungeons) and the
Isle of Conquest
(the new Battleground).
I myself didn't find a terrible lot of new information in this Q&A, but it helps to see all those thing put together by somebody from Blizzard. Follow the link to the WoW-Europe forums, or read on to find out what
Ancilorn
has to tell us:

Strategist: Auriaya
The
Archivist of Ulduar, Auriaya
unfortunately bears no resemblance to the
Archivist
in Diablo III.
Actually, scratch that. Sonic Screech looks like
Lorenado
,
Quest Bolt
makes me think of Sentinel Blast, and
Shush
is kind of like Terrifying Screech. But
ANYWAY
...
I have found myself with some time in my hands, and nothing in particular to do, so I thought I'd put another Strategist together. Hoping that somebody actually reads and uses these... ;)
Also, before I actually start writing, I will have you know that this boss is actually rather hard for my guild. I think we might be doing something wrong - it's not that the strategy doesn't work, it's just messy.

MMOs: Not Just For Kids!
So here I was, reading through the official forums, when I found a thread that looked interesting. I'll spare you the unnecessary details of the thread, but the person who wrote the thread claimed to have been eighty-eight-years-old when it was written back in April of this year. You read it correctly—an
eighty-eight
year old, and I'm not even kidding.
That thread reminded me of an experience I had back while I was leveling my paladin during Burning Crusade. Intriguing? Read on!

Strategist: Kologarn
*mutters darkly*
Slow internet, sitting out of raids this week, poor weather for going out... Which means more Strategists this week!
A little known fact about
Kologarn
- Brann Bronzebeard wiped on him. So you better read carefully and not repeat the dwarven explorer's mistake. In addition to this, Kologarn is a mandatory boss, whom you need to kill in order to reach the Keepers' sanctums. And then Yogg-Saron. His dead body will become the bridge to the Observation Ring, and Ulduar's archivist - Auriaya. Body crafted personally by Ignis the Furnace Master, who hopefully lies dead by his forge by the time you get to Kologarn. You are quite a decimating group of raiders, aren't you? :)

Blizzard Responds to Extended Maintenance and Instance Problems
We all know the drill. Wake up late on Tuesday morning. Shower. Eat a bowl of Frosted Mini-Wheats. Go to work/school. And then whenever you get the time, log onto some site devoted to WoW and gripe about maintenance. And what's worse than maintenance? Extra-maintenance!
Well it looks like Blizzard has had a very good reason for it all—all that extended maintenance you've been experiencing is going to pay off! Basically, Blizzard has been looking into the problems that players have been experiencing with servers and instances and they are trying to fix these problems. The extended maintenance has been caused by this. Read the official Blizzard post

Strategist: Assembly of Iron
Well, I did earn
The Siege of Ulduar
, did I not? Made an entry for each one of the Siege bosses, that I did. Made me wonder how adequate the term "siege" is, when the only Expedition forces are in the base camp and around Razorscale - looks we've been
storming
Ulduar, not besieging it. But that's just my thoughts :)
So this time it's the
Assembly of Iron
. What many people call '
the Iron Council
'. The three Iron Generals represent each of the iron races in the Iron Army (they also love iron).
Steelbreaker
, the biggest and physically strongest of them all, is an Iron Giant with colossal strength.
Runemaster Molgeim
is an Iron Vrykul, who has mastered the art of rune magic.
Stormcaller Brundir
is an Iron Dwarf with a master's touch in the lightning magic, who hates being mocked for his height.
The Assembly of Iron has taken residence in the left wing of the Antechamber of Ulduar, j

Strategist: XT-002 Deconstructor
Time to deconstruct another boss' strategy! Har har har!
I love silly jokes. They make me... silly. But it's true -
XT-002 Deconstructor
is the subject of today's Strategist. Similarly to the other Ulduar bosses, not a whole lot is known XT, other than the fact that he is the last boss in the Siege of Ulduar, he is a mandatory fight, and his voice is the single reason people wipe on him.
XT-002 is located in the Scrapyard, between the Formation Grounds and the Antechamber of Ulduar. He is another one of
Mimiron
's creations, whom XT considers to be his father. Hence the boyish voice, the diligent exercise and dutiful guard. You need to defeat XT in order to proceed further in Ulduar, even if you skip the optional Ignis and Razroscale. The Deconstructor also has a hard mode.
And now, skipping over the break, let's take a look at He-who-does-not-drop-my-
Filo de Aesir

Hunter Q&A with Ghostcrawler
This Q&A was more adventurous than the others. Just as we spotted it, it was pulled off the official forums (and website, if it ever made it there).
MMO-Champion
still had it though, so we used their version - you can find the source over at their
Blue Tracker
. I personally expect changes to be made to the original Q&A (which is what you see here), hence the pulling off. Keep an eye on the thread, we'll try to post the updated version, if there is one, as soon as we can.
Looks like everything is alright with the Q&A now. You can find the source under the quote, after the break (through nine mountains in the tenth, through nine rivers...). The
last question
in the quote was not there before - it's the only new thing.
This time it's Hunter. Remember how I was happy about the Druid one because my next alt would be a druid? Well, the alt I am currently leveling is a
hunter
! So I am naturally excited to see what they have to say about it, and about Marksman in particular. I still haven't r

Sam Raimi to Direct Warcraft Movie
So it looks like
SBMrClean
was wrong, in his tongue-in-cheek prediction—it looks as though the Warcraft movie has a director—and it's
Sam Raimi
.
Here's the press release:
http://www.blizzard.com/us/press/090721.html
Especially interesting is the fact that
Ain't It Cool
picked up the story first, after which it was picked up by
WoW.com
, and only THEN did the
official press release
come out—and you may notice there's a typo in the title. Looks like the leak caught Blizzard a little off guard. ;)

o what do you guys think?
Good decision? Bad decision? Hopefully we'll have the chance to post an opinion piece on the subject this week.

Strategist: Ignis the Furnace Master
Hello, folks! My name is
Dr. Dorkins
*
not important. What is important is that I have finally put together an Ignis guide. Many of you probably have the old giant on farm, but for those who don't - and the future generations - here it is!
Ignis the Furnace Master
is fire giant, located in Ulduar. It is unknown whether he was there originally, or if he was brought by
Loken
(although I prefer the former), but one thing is certain - he works for
Yogg-Saron
just as much as Loken did. He is the one who crafted Razorscale's metal armor, and the one who created Kologarn, literally from a chunk of stone. You can find him in his Colossal Forge, on the opposite side of Razorscale.

Not intended to make fun of Dorkins. I love the opening :)

Increase in Hacked Accounts: Cause for Concern?
As someone who's been reading and posting in Blizzard's
Customer Service Forum
for over a year now, I can tell you that I've seen my fair share of complaints. Sadly, though, I've been noticing an increase in one particular thing—the amount of accounts that have been compromised or "hacked."
Should this be a cause for concern? With the number of compromised accounts increasing by the day, in spite of the numerous warnings Blizzard has put out, maybe it's time to both clear up the misconceptions as to how an account can become compromised and remind ourselves what we can do to prevent a compromise from happening—or for some of us, from having it happen again.

Reduced Cooldown on Paid Character Transfers
Eyonix, on the official forums, has just let us know that they're changing the cooldown on paid character transfers from 30 days to 3 days, in an effort to lend a hand to people who make a character transfer they regret!
Lot of big changes coming up for transfers these days. I'm definitely curious to hear how you guys feel this is going to affect the game experience.
