Arust and I have been invited to host some WoW panels at a convention in Iowa in October. While of course I find this very flattering, I’ve been giving it some thought and I’m trying to figure out exactly what we’d talk about. So this is my question for you guys: what should we talk [...]

Hey all, Arth again. Time for Round 2 of the WHU’s ongoing pet tanking guide. For pet tanking we need a tenacity pet for the damage mitigation talents and thunderstomp; however, we also need a pet that is going to generate the maximum amount of threat to the targets that it’s tanking. That means we [...]
I think that starting my World of Warcraft playing back in vanilla gave me a better appreciation for the little things in WoW. And by little things, I mean dps of course. Back in the day, we got worked up over the fabulous 7 agility enchant for our gloves. I mean, that was 14 attack [...]
10-man raid night. Last week was a good week for us – we got through Auriaya our first night with only minor difficulties, then on our second night we cleared Hodir and Thorim, both firsts for us. My cunning plan for this week was to invite all of the local people of our group over [...]
Hi everyone. Arthemystia here, a devoted dues-payer and follower of the WHU. I came to Frost recently with an offer to collect data on pet tanking for him, since I do a fair amount of tanking. He graciously accepted, and also allowed me to write some guest articles. This will be the first of several [...]
A bit ago I posted about what kinds of new guides you guys would like to see, now that we have most of the basics out of the way. I’ve been tossing up an extreme soloing guide here and there as I get around to it, and still plan on getting around to addons one [...]
25-man raid night and I was off to heroic Ulduar after missing a week (summer slump, not enough numbers last week). As I’ve mentioned, my guild was formed by Aussies, and it’s Aussie’s running the raid using Aussie strategies. I’ve noticed before that their strats are slightly different than the ones we use on our [...]
A totally off-topic post to take you into the weekend. For whatever reason, I have a lot of grammar/spelling/word usage pet peeves. I hide it well though. Mind you, many people who know me would claim that I do not hide it well. That, in fact, I am some kind of grammar snob who simply [...]
10-man raid night. Our 10-man raid has problems, this is true. Summer has hit us like it’s hit many raids, and it’s been a long time since we’ve been able to actually get our two raid nights in a week. The result is frustrating — we keep clearing the same Ulduar bosses each week, then [...]
Reviewed 8/26/10 Patch 3.3.5 Note: This is an out of date guide from Wrath. For current extreme solo guides, see the Cataclysm hunter guides section. Extreme hunter soloing is all about your pet – if the pet survives, you’re going to win. So your extreme hunter solo pet talent build is an essential part of [...]
