External Factors Destroying Experience

By Ben, on September 6th, 2009%

For the past two weeks Oui and I have been experiencing higher than usual latency in WoW making the game practically unplayable and in a moment of weakness we tried out Smoothping. While it did seem to stabilise our latency it didn’t provide anywhere near the benefit advertised and most importantly it didn’t give us . . . → Read More: External Factors Destroying Experience

During a raid recently it came to my attention that there are people who don’t know how to tell if a mob ability can be interrupted. I can’t recall exactly when Blizzard added in the ability to distinguish between abilities that can and cannot be interrupted, but here you go:

I finally did it (got the title for the Midsummer Fire festival in WoW) but I swear to god I nearly gave myself RSI trying to do the torch tossing achievement, alternately hammering my keyboard and mouse like a guinea pig on speed for 5 minutes and continually speeding up because I’d think I wasn’t . . . → Read More: I am the Keeper of the Flame

I really enjoyed the Noblegarden event this year. I refer to it in the past tense as I am now titled-up and done. Now for Children’s Week.
