Malkorok is a fun fight when you are the master of overhealing. Pretty obvious it was a gimmick designed to throw a bone at the classes that typically overheal for the majority of their healing output, but fun nonetheless.

I will say that the storyline of MoP has been the most consistently solid of any expansion to date. The little scene with Lorewalker Cho and the Emperor after you beat Garrosh where it answers the "Why do we fight?" question was a nice way to wrap up the whole plotline.

Eh. Running afoul of the Norrath syndrome here in that how many more hidden/secluded areas can there be on the planet at this point? Hence the movement into the Twisting Nether or Time Travel or something similar makes more sense.

The game had a lot of style to it and the whole notion of the Public Quest was pretty damn revolutionary at the time. Too much of the world was predicated on assumptions that there would be a roughly steady state population of players of both factions throughout three parallel levelling...

Mostly because Draenor no longer exists having been blown the fuck up... so the assumption is that any Warlords of Draenor would need to involve travel back in time to when the planet existed.

Ahh ha! So Jinora was indeed key to the whole thing afterall with her connection to the spirit world. Im curious to see how the Asami / Mako / Bolin / Varik storyline ends up tying into the rest of the plot. I wonder if Varik, as a transportation tycoon, isn't tied into this because the...

She is The Queen. A woman obsessed with Oliver Queen's father who declares herself to be the only true heir to the Queen legacy and who does anything she can to take over Queen Industries. Good to see them moving forward rapidly with Brother Blood and in keeping him more closely tied to his...

from some stills that are showing up on the net it looks like Thor himself shows up in at least a cameo appearance on the show. Commentary has been made that the show will move forward along with the marvel movieverse and so we can expect references to the dark elves attacking etc to show up in...

For anyone coming back into the game and wanting to do LFR stuff the Crystal of Insanity is a pretty damn nice item to acquire on the Timeless isle. Just go to the Cave of Lost Spirits and keep opening the purple wall crystals (that usually give a few coins) until you get one. 500 to all...

At the end of a Time Travel expansion they pull a Zebuxoruk and reset time so that nothing ever happened? I think Orcs have been kinda done to death at this point though. I rather thought that slaughtering thousands of them in Siege of Orgrimmar would have both helped explain why there are...

Jedikiah is the best part of this series so far. Awesome actor and his motivations are much more complex than your usual villain. The sheer level of pride you could see when he was talking to John in the car was quite evident. Despite everything else he is pleased with what John has become...

So reports on the 'net are saying that Orson Scott Card got all his $$ up front and has no backend participation on the film itself. Of course if it ends up being a super success then he stands to benefit from subsequent license deals plus the obvious book sale spike, but it may be possible to...

See its that incredibly minimalistic squares of text and arbitrary block-of-blocks appearance that really turns me off personally.

The sentinel design was one of the first elements shown off for promotional purposes. It will very much have sentinels

I noticed in recent levelling of my alts through MoP that whereas I did every zone and every quest in said zones with my first character a year ago, my Shaman hit 90 last week after only doing part of Jade Forest and then Valley of the Four Winds and a bit of Kun Lai Plains. So either through...

There's pretty much zero CGI work in this so I am guessing that Blink will at least have her eyes redone in CGI and perhaps some other CGI effects so they didnt go too overboard with the costume. That having been said I would never have guessed that was Warpath until you mentioned it.

What I would do... Final Scene - Future Present. LOGAN is recovering from the effects of the time jump. Several mutants are helping him. BLINK turns away from LOGAN and addresses the back of a silhouetted figured wearing the CEREBRO helmet slumped from the exertion. BLINK: "Professor? Did...

I use the vanilla UI and seem to do pretty darn okay. I really dislike overly cluttered UIs but at the same time the completely minimalistic UI mods do nothing for me. The existing raid interface plus mouseover macros is good enough for me to heal on my shaman and monk (especially with all...

So Ryse - Son of Rome is one of the few launch titles for the Xbox One and one of three exclusives (Dead Rising 3 and Forza 5 being the other two) available at launch.** I find it pretty curious that the mass marketing for this game is in the form of a live action trailer. Sure such live...

So apparently the Hunter Ranger is the next class that will be released with their new content update. Additionally they will overhaul the enchantment interface and add second Paragon Paths to the existing classes. Kinda silly that it will end up taking them nearly a year to add in an actual...

Yeah I was only after the simulcast. There is no way in hell I'm not seeing it on the 23rd, so the 25th then just becomes a 3D repeat.

Pretty ludicrous in fact. Some pieces seem less common than others (belt and wrist) but yeah you will find yourself swimming in the stuff before you know it. Make sure to tag a Celestial once a week for a chance at max ilevel loot as well. I got some very sweet 553 ilevel set gloves that way.

Pfft thats Jay Garrick... who is now on a different Earth!

Lets talk about LFR for a moment. I'm sitting in one of the wings of SoO waiting for it to actually start because the instance kicked off with both tanks and 4 of the healers immediately leaving before they finished zoning in. After some queue shuffling there is one tank (paladin) with 456k...

Dollmaker was an interesting choice of Villains. Created for the New52 and so a very very recent addition to the DC Universe. His lawyer is named after the creator of the character Tony Daniel. Black Canary's 'sidekick' is Sin who in the comics was being groomed to be the next Lady Shiva...

50th Anniversary: BBC AMERICA Announces 3D Screening Events | Anglophenia | BBC America No screenings in Boston = fail. The Monday night screenings have zero interest for me.

What are they gonna do with the Cataclysm wrecked old world? It was a nifty idea at the time to "update" the whole planet, but with all the improvements to the dungeon finder I dont think hardly anyone actually made use of all the content. A good friend of mine who just started the game a...

Looks like S.H.I.E.L.D. is no longer even remotely covert. There appear to be multiple helicarriers in action from the look of those hangars... I suppose having aliens and a god devastate NYC does set things into motion...

The Big Finish audio dramas are a mixed bag, lots of people really like them but I find them hot and cold depending on the cast and the writer. Anywho this one is worth mentioning because it has the 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th and 8th Doctors plus one companion from each era all in one special story...

I feel sorry for Heroic Dungeons in 5.4 Just as with any other last patch of the expansion the ilevel inflation has resulted in what were, on day 1, pretty challenging experiences turning into total 5 min jokefests. Great for getting yer valor super duper fast but sheesh.

Well the first hour or so was cycling through tanks that had the bare minimum ilevel for the encounter and thus were getting one shot during phase 1. At one point I was cycling every heal I had on the tank and obtaining a thoroughly ludicrous 92% overheal (Monk) and it was still dropping dead...

Killed Garrosh after hitting 10 Determination and wiping for something like 4 hours. Was nice to be "done" but I do not think I will ever do that fight again in LFR unless they make some pretty extensive changes to it. Was nice that Varian at least mentions cleaning up Gilneas when you talk...

Garrosh seems a complete waste of time in LFR. The loot table for him is pretty damn lame since they eliminated the heirloom weapons for the LFR edition. I can see doing it once to say that I 'beat' MoP and then never doing it again or just leaving after getting the Klaxxi (for a chance at the...

Yeah the two parter was pretty much a standalone movie of its own, but it really fleshes out the whole notion of the Avatar. What is striking is how different the world is in Wan's time and what this could mean in terms of how the world might change following this upcoming harmonic...

On Thursday I decided I wanted to not spend money on gems... so naturally I levelled my jewelcrafter up to 90 so he could fly and mine for ore to turn into gems. Of course he hit 90 and as a mail user got a nearly full suit of 496 armor, so I then had to go to Timeless Isle and get his ilevel...

I am currently on COBRA after retiring from my last job. This means I pay 102% of the entire premium for the same coverage as my former.coworkers who have their own insurance covered by the company plus a modest copay each psycheck. The joke here is that my former coworkers are paying ~$200...

I think the Emerald Dream is the great red herring of WoW. It was hinted at in the original release a decade ago with comments about Malfurion's absence and the presence of the big Emerald Dream portals which then produced the green dragon world bosses... but that was the end of it. If you...

"It could be worse...my secret identity is as his black driver" I completely lost it with that line. That and "Sometimes I let my emotions get the better of me" from Brother Blood. Sensible line for the situation but nice fanservice for people who know. I will say that if the announced...

The natural new race would be Ethereal as the whole thing will likely involve taking the fight to the Burning Legion and the Titans rather than just waiting around for everyone to get ganked. Take the Blood Elven controlled and refurbished Tempest Keep and a finally repaired Exodar and use...

So I decided to go to Icy Veins and look up how I am supposed to be playing... and apparently I am doing everything wrong. Which I find amusing since I seem to be getting the job done.
