Crimson Halls Boss Strats

Posted: by Frostheim in Boss Strats, General

In today’s WoW.com article I go over the hunter boss strats for the Crimson Halls in ICC. The Crimson Halls of Icecrown Citadel contains the kind of horrors that the Plagueworks could only hint at. The Crimson Halls is where all the emo vampire RPing blood elves went to die… and then came back! …Read [...]

Nothing to See Here, Move Along

Posted: by Frostheim in General

Slow news day in Frost land, so I’ll just give you a bit more of the collected widom of Hrist: I am fascinated by art like an alien is fascinated by an inferior race. – Hrist Oh, and Valithria totally schooled MNK last night. Though we did learn that we only need one healer to [...]

I hate all holidays, but I do not hate them equally. Hallows End was nearly the end of me, with raw luck almost thwarting my quest for a faster mount. On the very last day I *finally* got my last item for the achievements. The valentine’s day one was great, as these things go — [...]

Delightful

Posted: by Frostheim in General

Given the way these things go, I’m probably way, way behind on this stuff. Fortunately I now spend too much time hanging out in the WoW.com chatroom where in addition to the lolcats, people post all manner of interesting things. So it was that I learned the Discovery Channel had this delightful commercial with an [...]

In this week’s podcast special we talk to Kruf, the hunter from Paragon, the guild from the lightning’s blade- EU realm who got the world first lich king kill. We ask Kruf a bit about the encounter, his thoughts on the state of the hunter class, and about what it’s like in a world first [...]

As predicted, the Can Beast Mastery Raid column on wow.com yesterday drew tons of controversy and comments. What I didn’t expect was the sheer volume of rabid BM irrational rage (and some rational rage as well). I knew there’d be some, but honestly I didn’t expect as much. For those of you who missed it, [...]

Can BM Raid?

Posted: by Frostheim in General

Up now at WoW.com, Can Beast Mastery Raid? …But even after getting repeatedly beaten like a red-headed gnome, squashed into a wee pet-shaped crater, you still don’t have to look far to find a BM hunter defending their viability in raids. Today we’re going to take a hard look at the BM spec. We’re going [...]

BM Letter

Posted: by Frostheim in General

In a very interesting coincidence, I got this email from a BM hunter yesterday: Long time BM hunter and avid reader of your blog, listener of the podcast etc, firstly I would like to say a massive Damn you and Thank you! For so long, too long infact I have been one of those stubborn, [...]

The Voice

Posted: by Frostheim in General

When we’re reviewing boss strats in MNK, either Hrist or I do the explaining over vent.  Hrist ’cause he’s in charge, and me because Hrist’s girlfriend is often working over the phone in the same room as him, and she apparently doesn’t want conversations about shooting and killing trickling onto her work calls. Normally I’d [...]
