New Spirit Beast pet found

Hunters, patch 3.2 also means a new spirit beast for you to obsessively tame. Once again Mania’s Arcania proves itself to be the go-to site for information about new pets. Since I know I’m going to be spending a lot of time wandering around looking for this new pet model, here’s the skinny: there will [...]

WoW Insider Show Episode 95: Just for you

Quite a show on our podcast last weekend — while, despite lots of pre-show tweaking, I still wasn’t able to get audio set up correctly, we were still able to get all our guests on. Both Lesley Smith and Chase Christian joined us to talk about all of the patch 3.2 changes we’ve heard about [...]

Patch 3.2: The day we find out who stands in Yogg clouds

Like me and my guild, you may have found yourself wiping on Yogg-Saron phase 1 lately because there are people who just can’t seem not to stand in clouds.

Save your Authenticator serial number before upgrading your iPhone

Many people, myself included, are excited about the iPhone OS 3.0 update, which is released tomorrow for all iPhone and iPod Touch owners, though Touch users have to pay for it.

Welcome back to The Queue, WoW.com’s daily Q&A column where the WoW Insider team answers your questions about the World of Warcraft. Alex Ziebart will be your host today.
I’m not much of a Jazz person, so when I set out to counter the John Coltrane that Adam used in The Queue yesterday, I was a [...]

The Light and How to Swing It: Retribution tips and tricks in Ulduar

I know, it’s another Retribution post, but since we got hit with the nerf bat again (ever so slightly) I decided to devote one last column to the spec before I rotate back to Protection. Besides, my past month or so has been spent raiding Ulduar as Retribution (with the first few forays as Holy) [...]

BlizzCon 2009 ticket sales are done

BlizzCon 2009 tickets went on sale for the last time on Saturday at 10am PST, and were reported as sold out less than 30 minutes later. As expected, there were lots of disappointed Blizzard fans, but compared to the way things worked last year, this year’s system was much more fair and much less frustrating. [...]
