Hail to the King, Baby: In the upcoming Patch 3.3, Icecrown Citadel will be added to the game leading up to the final showdown with Lich King Arthas himself, and we got a look at what was in store. A surprise announcement came in that not only would Icecrown house the 10/25-player raid where the heroes of Azeroth take the fight to Arthas, but that Icecrown would add not just one but three 5-player dungeons to the game. These three dungeons would have a continuing storyline running through them (and would have to be initially done in order) and would allow players to battle alongside Alliance and Horde heroines Jaina Proudmoore and Sylvanas Windrunner. As for Icecrown itself? While it wouldn’t house the (mind-boggling) 31 bosses previously rumored, Icecrown Citadel would boast an impressive 12 big bads, including “ultimate Frost Wyrm Sindragosa” and, of course, Arthas. The dungeon would have four floors, and a particularly cool sequence took place as players boarded an airship on the second floor. Alliance raiders would fight alongside King Varian Wrynn, while the Horde would accompany High Overlord Saurfang – and the two airships would race to the next floor in Icecrown Citadel, exchanging cannon fire and even boarding parties (using

If you’ve been following along with the recent news in the WoW stratosphere, you know that patch 3.3.5 is currently being tested on the PTR. Included in this patch is the new Ruby Sanctum raid dungeon, which is very likely to be the last raid that we’ll see this side of the Cataclysm. While I think it will be more of a Sartharion-like raid and less of an actual progression instance, the fact is that after Halion and company go down, Deathwing’s emergence will be soon to follow. I talked last week about how the various trade skills can enhance your rogue in a multitude of ways. While these are certainly some of the more tangible benefits you can receive by working on your character’s progression, there are several other ways to make your rogue all it can be. With Icecrown Citadel on farm status for many guilds, you might have some free time to start rounding out your rogue for Cataclysm’s imminent release. Read on for a few pointers on how to get yourself into top shape for the upcoming expansion. Lockpicking My first suggestion is something very close to my heart: every rogue should have his lockpicking capped out. Right now, that means your LP should be level 400. Blizzard realized how hard it was to level lockpicking back in

WoW Stage: The lull before the Cataclysm

In accordance with my occasional habit, I was recently lingering around the Dalaran beer garden. I’m pretty sure I was having a beer. (Betcha didn’t see that coming, didja? Who’d have thought a dwarf would drink beer?) Those tables and that lawn are the favorite Alliance roleplay haunts on one of my servers, and you can usually find at least a half-dozen roleplayers seeking out people of like mind. In fact, a few of my all-time favorite stories came out of the beer garden. Good times have been had there. On this particular night, I hung out there for about two hours, and I never did see anyone else come through. It was a ghost town. Now, of course there are always busy nights and slow nights, so I hoped that it was just a slow night. But as the moments kept slipping through the hourglass, I got more and more concerned. Eventually, I hit the portals and shot off to Stormwind. You could always rely on someone hanging around Stormwind park, chilling at the pond or one of the many bars there. But, on this night, nothing. Not a soul was around. I’m pretty sure even rerolling a female nelf and hitting the mailboxes wouldn’t have produced any roleplayers. I have been able to catch a little RP here and there recently, but there’s
