Overdue

No matter how much I intend to update this journal, I always seem to allow laspes … of the large kind. So let’s see if I can’t get everyone caught up with my going-ons …
Seems Blizzard will be releasing WotLK November 13th despite indications from the beta that it won’t be completely ready. But what [...]

Short-fall

I really don’t want to QQ, but getting into arena-based pvp this late in the TBC cycle is frustrating. Simply put, gear just makes too much of a difference (skill can only compensate so much) and if you’re just starting out, you’re pretty much fodder for those that are rolling s3+ gear.

After a 2 week long obsession with pvp on my rogue, I’ve started hating rogue pvp again.
