Hey all,
Any of you have an Idea what the best Cataclysm PvP class could be? Iam hearing totally different things, from hunter to mage to warlock blah blah blah. Also some people are saying that there might be NO OP class since Rated BGs will now be nr. 1 PvP method and that is group work, not single. S
So I don't really know what to think... although I think it might be the same old stuff... warlock/rogue/mage. What are your opinions?
Cheers,
Dominium

Blizzard releasing the Remote Auction House!
Hey everyone!
Blizzard released a new method of using the auction house... straight from your phone! You can browse the auction house for free, but if you want to bid/buyout/sell items you need to pay $2,99 per month for a subscription.
When I saw that you have to actually pay more for this I almost fell off my chair. I mean come on! We pay them $15 a month and now they want us to pay even more for something that doesn't cost a dollar to keep up! They should take care of their players more... they are making ONE HUNDRED EIGHTY million dollars ($180000000) a month already (just from WoW) and they want even more? In my opinion that's just disgusting... I would understand if WoW was a free game and you could buy these kinds of "premium memberships" (read: Runescape) but not if Iam paying them $15 a month and they want me to pay even more.
Comment by MSG-Deathscythe "how's this for logic? WOW is losing subscribers. Should they charge current subscribers more or should they lower the price to attract new subscribers?"
Comment by gunwar "Next is to open a physical WoW auction house so that players get to leave their computer for 15 minutes but still can still interact with WoW at the same time"
Comment by Evenios "ugh with the glowly horses rip off and now this? let me guess 3 bucks a month extra for the service so instead of paying 15 a month for wow you pay 18 almost? come on. They should include this free."
Short video by MassiveWoWGold
Never heard of his WoW Gold Blueprint guide, but it sounds interesting. I think I will give it a try. Check it out here.
Anyway, check out this page about the Mobile AH: http://www.wowarmory.com/wow-remote.xml
Check out this remote auction article - http://www.gamespot.com/news/6263054.html
Blizzard earnings if you 50% of WoW players buy this (and I'am pretty sure that more will) 5500000*3=$16500000 not so bad for something like this...
Iam definately not going to buy it, but it's your choice.

Why you SHOULDN'T buy WoW Gold
Hey guys,
doing a short post about buying WoW Gold from chinese farmers. This is Blizzards opinion about it and I fully support it:
I read somewhere that buying gold in MMORPGs in overall is just like supporting prostitution. You are giving money to fat, lazy assholes that have a whole horde of chinese farmers working for them for a couple of cents PER HOUR. I made this list to point out all the good and bad points of buying WoW gold.
+you get the gold quite fast (usually)
+you don't have to work for it - except that you pay with your REAL hard earned money but people usually don't think about that
-you are wasting your money on something that will NOT last - you will get the gold, spend it, and want more. Unlike buying a gold-making guide where you will learn how to make huge amounts of gold YOURSELF. And that knowledge will stay with you forever; however the gold from farmers - will not.
-you are risking getting yourself banned. Blizzard is pro at fighting gold farmers and every time you buy gold there is a risk of getting your account banned.
-as I already said before, you are paying those fat lazy guys that "own" these kinds of gold farms and actually not the farmers themselves (well ok yeah they get about 1% of what you pay)
-"You are supporting spamming (the more gold you buy from them the more eager they will be to advertise), botting (because many of the farmers use bots) and keylogging (90% of gold farmers use hacked character to farm since they get banned so often)" - Blizzard
-You suck. How can you live with yourself?
Does that American flag really mean it's from America? I don't think so.
Conclusion: Guys, don't buy gold. Don't be lazy. Get gold the real way - by yourself. It's really not that hard; you can either try to learn how to make gold fast yourself or buy one of the many gold guides available on the internet. I suggest either Dugi's Auction Mastery or the Warcraft Millioner (I have a Warcraft Millioner banner on the right and the link to Dugi's AH Mastery on the bottom of the page).
I hope you enjoyed the read - please comment and subscribe/follow.
Till next time!

Fun/useful scripts for WoW
Hey guys,
sharing with you some of my favorite WoW scripts.
Huge Zoom Out Script
If you looked at atleast at one of my screenshots you would've noticed that I can zoom out veryyy far. Here is the script.
/conso
Awesome Graphics
/console farclip 777
/console horizonfarclip 2112
/console groundeffectdensity 256
/console groundeffectdist 140
/console smallcull 0
/console detailDoodadAlpha 100
/console skycloudlod 3
/console characterambient 1
Thanks to Serophis from World of Immortality for this awesome stuff!
If you want to go back to default...
/console groundEffectDensity 16
/console groundEffectDist 1
/console horizonfarclip 1305
/console farclip 177
/console characterAmbient
/console smallcull 1
/console skycloudlod 1
/console detailDoodadAlpha
Increase Spell Graphics
Awesome stuff guys, this script eg. increases the graphic effects of your spells (best for AoE). Check it out, its insane.
/script SpellEffectLevel 1000
You can set the amount to anything you want, set it to 10 for the default if you want. HUGE thanks to Jioow from World of Immortality for this!
(Not my picture)
Funny - show your friends you got 1mln gold
This is a simple yet brilliantly fun script. It changes the amount of silver you need per gold. Eg. you can set it so that 1 silver = 1000 gold instead of 100silver = 1 gold. Its fun and stuff, but sadly ALL prices are changed. So no real effect except visual :-/
/script SILVER_PER_GOLD=(random number here)
Examples: 1 silver = 1 gold
/script SILVER_PER_GOLD=1 (you might sometimes have to add "" so it's /script SILVER_PER_GOLD="1")
1 silver = 1000 gold
/script SILVER PER_GOLD=0,001
Etc. etc.
I will be adding more if I find any.

My thoughts about retribution paladins...
I decided to write this since so many people are complaining about how easy playing a retribution paladin is in both PvP and PvE. I want to answer some questions, both for myself and for you guys. So the questions are:
-Are retri paladins REALLY that easy in PvP/PvE?
-When did the opinion about retri paladins become so bad?
-Are they still overpowered?
-Why is bubble soo annoying?
Alright, I will start with the first one.
Are retri paladins REALLY that easy in PvP/PvE?
My answer is: no, they aren't. Most people say that they are such a easy brainless class because of their small amount of spells/attacks. Now let's think about this a little bit more... is it really a positive thing? I understand that in patch 3.0.1 and 3.1 when they were rediculously overpowered the thing that they only needed to click "three buttons" was annoying, but now? Would it be cool to play eg. a priest if you had only PW:S, Flash Heal, Renew and Greater Heal? Would it be easy? Yes. Would it bring good results unless you timed everything perfectly? Ofcourse not. So that's why I think that paladins having only 4 spells in their sequence is actually a negative thing for them and they have to think more since they need to TIME their attacks for the best DPS (unlike eg. arcane mage). As for PvP it's bad aswell, because unless you can kill someone with those 4 attacks (and obviously you can't) then you are going to have to wait and wait until your cooldows reset which sucks.
So the final answer: retri paladins CAN BE easy to play with but you will never achieve good results without actually having to think a bit. Timing is the key and it's not a easy one.
-"When did the opinion about retri paladins become so bad"?
Let me begin with this: there are two "opinions" (bad ones) about retridins. One is that they fail and can't kill anything. The second one is that they are rediculously overpowered and don't require any skill.
So, first the first one. That opinion was "live" about retribution paladins since the start of the game. In Pre-bc they had 1 or 2 attacks (forgot exact amount) and seriously, they could do SHIT. When someone saw a retri pala they thought "oh a free HK hurray!". The opinion stayed the same for pretty much most of the Burning Crusade times, although now that people could play belf paladins the opinion got even worse with the helmet kids that automatically rolled one and made a /castrandom macro. It changed right into the second one ("they are OP and don't require any skill) with the beginning of WotlK. Patch 3.0.1-3.2 were the glory days of retri paladins. Pretty much anyone could play them and win - here the "they are rediculously OP and don't require any skill" fits perfectly. But now? They are a quite balanced class (although some people say they are underpowered) and require quite a bit of fixing.
-"Are they still overpowered"? The short answer is: no. If you read all I wrote above you would know the answer. The thing about them having only 4 attacks is actually a negative thing and to achieve high DPS for a retri paladin you need to really learn how to time your attacks well and it's DEFINATELY not easy.
-"Why is bubble so annoying?" Actually the question is: why does bubble annoy us so much and Frost Block/Blink/Sprint/Vanish/Blind/Sap etc. etc. etc. etc. doesn't? Its all because of the opinion that retri paladins have. People think they are so easy to play and when they bubble they just show how much they fail. It's true, bubble is more powerful then eg. Frost Block, but it's not like it's undestructable, a priest can easily just Mass Dispel it. Also when a mage Frost Blocks most people think "oh what a awesome mage he is so skilled damnit it's so hard to kill him wow" and what do you think when you see a paladin bubble? "F*ck yeah, bubble you a$$hole, failer, now go click your 3 buttons and kill me". Iam pretty sure that if you think about it more after reading what I said here you would come to the same conclusion.
