Big Bear Butt Blogger » Culture Shock
I read the same post as Big Bear Butt Blogger » Culture Shock but I didn’t think about it as much as he did. He’s right that the way you think about WoW makes a huge difference. Is the … Continue reading
Darths & Droids
The thing I like most about Darths & Droids is that it completely explains Star Wars. If Star Wars is seen as a role-playing campaign with fast-talking players and an accommodating game master it makes a ton of sense. So … Continue reading

Death Knight Leveling Builds (58-68)
I’m almost done getting my druid to level cap, so there’s a decent chance that I’ll start leveling my death knight. It’s been long enough since I’ve been through Outlands that it might be more interesting than running through Borean … Continue reading
UI design and add-ons for leveling
I found that that post: UI design and add-ons for leveling | No Stock UI has a lot of good generalized tips for laying out your UI in a non-raid situation. Apart from spending time fishing, most of my recent … Continue reading
