Blizzard Unveils Cataclysm’s Grim Batol Dungeon [World of Warcraft]
The latest Cataclysm preview from Blizzard introduces Grim Batol, a mountain once refuge to the Wildhammers clan following the dwarven civil war of Ironforge. Located in the Twilight Highlands (of the upcoming expansion), Grim Batol is a 5-player dungeon steeped in lore, tangled between the dwarves, the Twilight’s Hammer and the Red and Black Dragonflights. Tuned for level 85 players, the dungeon lies within the cavernous ruins of the mountain sacked by the Twilight Hammer cult, now being used as a training ground for Deathwing’s minions.
Lucking Across Lil Timmy, Boy With Kittens
I admit it.
I’ve crossed the line.
After years of being Horde-dominated and only having dabbled half-heartedly in any Alliance faction toons, I’ve finally set myself up an official, lasting, Alliance family.
One that is getting proper attention to be called a family and not just a stray spore that landed, germinated, and then was put into forever-stasis.

How Nerfing the Game is Making it Better
I honestly never expected my wife to truly become addicted to WoW. I always knew she would enjoy it because of the types of games she plays and the themes she likes on her reading and movies. I did not expect her to get addicted beyond the level that I play, but I am glad she is having a blast. The interesting part is that she is a better player than most that I have seen, and she will be raid ready probably as soon as she hits 80. Funny thing is that from watching me raid, I think she is looking forward to her first raid, and as soon as she hits 70 I think to Kara we will head.
Converting Soul Shard Bag Into Normal Bags?

With the changes coming to the Warlock class, I have to wonder. Since Warlocks will no longer being using soul shards, what is going to happen to the Warlock’s Soul Shard Bag? Will it be converted into a normal bag? Will they be rendered completely useless?
Quick Rant on ICC Buff
So yeah… the ICC buff went live… and I can tell the difference. Last night we went into ICC 10 and One shot every boss from the citadel to the plagueworks and then Blood Princes. Sure we had killed them all before… even multiple times. But we had new people in this run who hadn’t even seen these fights and we still one shot them.

Hey. My name is Liam and my main is Anaalius, Destruction warlock of the Eu – Chamber of Aspect’s realm Who i have played since i bought the game December of 2008. All the way threw Burning Crusade i was always struggling to even pay my repair bill’s. I didn’t see much use for gold really until i started to buy some crafted gear and wanted to get my epic flying mount, I grinded for these pretty exclusively in the lake just outside of shattrath killing the wyrm’s for mote’s of water. Basically all threw out burning crusade i didn’t have over 10k gold and i was someone that farmed for my gold so i could afford gem’s from my new gear and repairs. When patch 3.0 came out I started to make gold Buying and enchanting Vellum’s.
