Baradin Hold Preview Baradin Hold is the new PvP Raid Instance in Tol Barad. Just like the Vault of Archavon in Wintergrasp, the instance will only be available to the faction controlling the zone and according to the current layout of the map, Blizzard will most likely add more wings over time. <div style="width:90%; text-align:center; margin:auto;"> <a class="thickbox" rel="gallery-baradin12803" href="http://static.mmo-champion.com/mmoc/images/news/2010/august/baradinhold_12803_01.jpg"><img src="http://static.mmo-champion.com/mmoc/images/news/2010/august/small/baradinhold_12803_01.jpg" /></a> <a class="thickbox" rel="gallery-baradin12803" href="http://static.mmo-champion.com/mmoc/images/news/2010/august/baradinhold_12803_02.jpg"><img src="http://static.mmo-champion.com/mmoc/images/news/2010/august/small/baradinhold_12803_02.jpg" /></a> <a class="thickbox" rel="gallery-baradin12803" href="http://static.mmo-champion.com/mmoc/images/news/2010/august/baradinhold_12803_03.jpg"><img src="http://static.mmo-champion.com/mmoc/images/news/2010/august/small/baradinhold_12803_03.jpg" /></a> … Read More »

Blizzard’s PowerAuras – Updated Arts/Icons I posted about the Power Auras/Spell Procs interface in Cataclysm a few days ago, the feature isn’t really implemented on beta servers yet and even if a lot of people are already excited because of how useful it will be, you have to admit it looked ugly. I have a good news for you, the final version of the spell activation UI will be pretty, very pretty. Apparently, Blizzard … Read More »

Survey – If you have 5 minutes of free time, please fill out this survey. Cataclysm Mounts – Drakes of the Wind, Stone Drakes, and Camels Mounts didn’t get a lot of love on the front page since the beginning of the beta. A lot of stuff was implemented in-game during the latest beta update and we now have a decent idea of what to expect in-game. I tried to restrict it to the … Read More »

Do you wear clothing? If you do, you can wear clothing that tells everyone who sees you that you’re scared of a level 11 gnoll elite. And much more, to be fair, because J!NX has announced the fall 2010 lineup, and BlizzPlanet has the details. Paladins and death knights finally get their ‘Legendary’ t-shirt designs, there’s a couple of nice hoodie designs (I’m partial to the Horde one myself, looks more natural as … Read More »
The hunter class received handful of tweaks in last night’s Cataclysm beta build 12803, but by far the most significant among them is the removal of the minimum range (sometimes referred to as the dead zone) for hunter special shots. However Ghostcrawler, lead systems designer, was quick to jump into a thread to point out that it was only a bug. Ghostcralwer – Lead Systems Designer We did not remove the minimum range … Read More »
Blizzard snuck in another beta build last night, and it was more than a little exciting for the balance druid side of the world. Although I wouldn’t say that druids or balance in particular were the “primary” focus of this build, as paladins have been in the past few builds while Blizzard fixes the new holy power mechanic, it certainly held quite a number of changes that we’ve been looking forward to for … Read More »
It occurred to us here at WoW.com that we hadn’t mentioned these lovely new achievements implemented for the archaeology profession. In addition to the standard “you have at least this many points” achievements, there are also three achievements with a bit more flavor to them. I Had It in My Hand, which grants the player the illustrious title of Assistant Professor, is rewarded for finding a rare artifact. Seven Scepters is granted for … Read More »
