Farm stratholme with 2 mages





This is doable at level 60 with 3 talent points in to improved blizzard apiece.

it works as follows:

mage 1 runs around using fire blast, arcane explosion and blink to annoy as many mobs as possible without getting killed. once critical mass is achieved and the mobs are reasonably close together, hit frost nova.
mage 2 drops flamestrike followed by imp blizzard. this is a surefire way of getting the attention of the mobs off mage 1. imp blizzard slows the mob pack to a crawl.
mage 1 at this point moves behind mage 2 and prepares to drop his blizzard at the nearside edge of mage 2's blizzard. as soon as the first mob moves out of the area of mage 2's blizzard, mage 1 starts channeling.
mage 2 moves behind mage 1 and repeats step 3 until everything is dead.

basically it's a safer method of aoe farming than running in and spamming arcane explosion. AE is a more effective method of dealing damage but it's a little too close for comfort.

Toque’s World of Warcraft Fitness Program!





This is my own article that I wrote and published back on 7/25/06. It was originally posted on the WoW General Forums and had 3 Blue responses and 15+ pages of replies. That thread was lost when the WoW Forums got a new design. I developed a (jokingly, yet true) fitness program for WoW players to help them keep in shape even when playing the game. The responses on the General Forums prompted me to also write Part B, which is accessible from the link.

Blood Elves in Cardgame Expansion





Just like the computer game, the card game will also have a Burning Crusade expansion. The card game expansion will include a new race -- the Blood Elves. No word yet if it will also include the Draenei. The card game expansion will also include new mounts. Similar to the video game, some of the mounts may even be flying.
