Threat Gauging in 3.0

Steam TankingEver wondered how that awesome warrior could handle six different creatures at once in a dungeon? What about the druid who did the same thing yesterday or even that paladin, or death knight, who took on six and then took on three more just for show? There's an insider secret to the trade and it's one without a name. Yeah, that warrior was doing it. The main tank in that world first guild has been doing it all along. That guild on your realm who just downed Malygos? Yep. It's so good even my grandmother does it. It really does work.\r
\r
So what is it? It's what separates the warriors from the peasants, the big dogs from the pups, the scrubs from the pros. Interested? Good. It may take some time, or perhaps you already possess all the necessary skills. Regardless, the info is out, and you can read all about it for three easy installments of 1995g. Sorry, no C.O.D.\r

Basic Example of Threat & Aggro

Angry MurlocIn today's class we're going to review the basics of threat mechanics--what threat, aggro, and hate are. These terms are familiar to most players, but are often misunderstood. A proper understanding can aid tactics and lesson confusion in-game.\r
\r
Of course, this is also a great introduction to tanking. Wondering how these big, armor-clad warriors, paladins, druids, or death knights got so mean and hated by creatures everywhere? Well then, sit down and open your books to page three hundred, seventy-six. This is Insensitivity Training 101!\r

Miyari
Skills to Pay the Bills is a three-part feature that will cover the important details of leveling the secondary tradeskills of Fishing, First Aid and Cooking in Wrath of the Lich King. These posts are written for the player entering Northrend with all secondary professions already maxed (at 375 skill). For information on leveling tradeskills prior to 375, check out the Profession Leveling Guides sticky on our forums!\r
\r
Part 2: First Aid\r
\r
Leveling First Aid is pretty straightforward - learn recipes, get cloth, make bandages, ta-da!\r
\r
You can train Grand Master First Aid from a Grand Master First Aid Trainer located in Borean Tundra, Howling Fjord or Dalaran. The trainer will teach you how to make Frostweave Bandages, which require 1 Frostweave Cloth[\/ic

A Game for the Obsessive Compulsive

So having been busy with the site since the expansion came out, I'm actually not NEARLY as high level as I should be. My paladin was level 73 at the time of this writing, which is pretty tame considering the rate at which people are tearing through the new content. But as time goes on, I've realized that I have a problem with WotLK.\r
\r
I've heard complaints that it's too easy, or that the new gear isn't good enough to replace the old, or other things along those lines. But the difficulty that I have is with instancing.\r
\r
Utgarde Keep.The instances in WotLK are great. I mean, I don't know if there are any people out there who haven't done them yet, but they're just great. The environments are bigger and more interesting. The fights are more nuanced, and more fun. They feel more connected to the game world--you don't feel as much like you're stepping out of Azeroth and into instance-land. You can see the Howling Fjord from the balcony of Utgarde Keep. There are cinematic sequences embedded in the instances to draw you further in--not long ones, just enough to hype you up and keep you interested.\r

So what's the problem? The problem i

Five Handy Macros (Yes, I use them!)
posted

Arideni
Ever wanted more bag space? How about more slots on the toolbar? Here's a list of five practical macros which I enjoy myself and would like to share with other players embarking on their epic journey to Northrend. These work even if one doesn't have the expansion. Simply copy and paste the code into the new macro text area (type \/macro to start) and voila!\r
\r
A Micro-Macro Philosophy\r
\r
A macro should be something that helps a player out, not burden them or make their play experience unwieldy. So that said, a macro should meet at least two of the following three stipulations to make it on the list:\r
\r
\r
A macro should not play the game for you, but help you play the game,\r
A macro must save space on the hotbar,\r
A macro must provide functionality which, by default, was difficult to achieve.\r
\r
\r
Check out the 5 macros, after the jump!\r
