An incredibly popular way to make gold in the World of Warcraft has always been mining ore. Ore in Northrend is no different. Ore nodes appear in abundance in every zone. There are three new ores in the game with the Wrath of the Lich King content. As the game has settled in, the final values for all three have been set. This has made it much easier to maximize your income.
Cobalt ore is the first of the new ores. It is available in Read more… »
An incredibly popular way to enjoy content in World of Warcraft has been though making gold. This opens up a whole slew of new items and possibilities through your grinding efforts. Since the creation of the Inscription profession in the 3.0 patch, the game’s newest and most popular gold making activity has been gathering herbs.

Arena Season 5 is an obvious testing ground for PvP situations that cannot be hashed out very well in testing by Blizzard. For this reason, there are a number of steady and constant changes that are going through the game to help balance out classes and set up a more steady and confined competition.

This is even more pronounced when you get into the current PvP Season where thirty different character talent trees have just hit Level 80 and are trying to balance out against each other (with Blizzard’s help of course).
Whenever a new Arena season starts, a question arises about the balance of the character classes in the arena and whether or not Blizzard needs to go in and buff/nerf a dozen different specs.

Casual style play adds a lot of fun things to the game that might otherwise be left out.
