Thirty One
Wow. Just wow. In case you have no idea what I’m referring to: I don’t know that I would say we want tanking niches. I ultimately am agreeing with what you’re saying, but once we say "tanking niches" players have visions of the DK who parks outside of Icecrown until boss 4, 17 and _31_ … [Read more of this article]

Never Second Guess Yourself
You never, ever, ever second guess yourself when you’re the boss. You can’t afford to. Otherwise you’ll start growing a collection of white hairs at the ripe old age of 21 (like yours truly). That’s a direct response to the Fel Firey one. It’s not very often I craft responses directly to other blog posts. … [Read more of this article]
Ulduar Nerfs and Bugs
Looks like there were some undocumented changes made to Ulduar. Check out this post on Main Tankadin. (Thanks Honors).

Archetypes of the Female Gamer, revisited
Shock. Frustration. Anger. Despair. Before last week, these are words I never would have connected to my experience with World of Matticus, either as a writer or a reader. However, last week Lodur’s article on guild Egoists just left me cold. I’ve invoked these four words to let you the readers know what powerful effect … [Read more of this article]

Ulduar Fights Where It’s Just Not the ...
I’ve experienced just about type of death in Ulduar. I’d die to Constrictor tentacles. Early on, I’d get rocked by Hodir’s Flash Freeze. Sometimes I’d get unlucky with a Rocket Strike. Today’s post is designed to help you identify under what situations a healer is at fault and when it is simply out of their … [Read more of this article]
