And that was a tricky title… the idea of this post is to discuss why are YOU playing WOW!

Is it to gear up and be the best that you can be in game? Is it to enjoy a fun time with friends? Or is it something else?

This past weekend I went to Stratholme Live to farm Righteous Orbs for some Crusader enchants.

Yes, Stratholme is a level 60 instance, with under-par loot compared to Outlands greens and blues; but it is still FUN. We did the whole instance in group of three toons: I was tanking on Dreadmoon (level 70 druid); we have a healer (level 62 priest) and DPS (level 62 mage).
(more…)

One of the not-so-rare, yet absolutely fun past times of bored players is to train Phantim, the 62 Elite Dragonkin from Ashenvale to Crossroads. In this brief video we show Doog (60 Warrior), me (60 Warlock), and a 60 Priest (relatively Epic, including Benediction) taking him down. There’s a bunch of 30s nipping on his heels, as well, but from what I understand they didn’t do much damage. So it’s definitively possible to 3-man him, next time we’ll try with two, as soon as Doog is back to a damage spec.

Better resolutions are on Filefront (30 megs, DivX) and soon on Warcraftmovies.
