All the World’s a Stage: Your character soundtrack

The 80s are over, and the fine art of making a mixed tape isn't quite the same as it used to be. Oh, sure, the roleplaying kids nowadays tell me they have their fancy-schmancy character playlists . They scratch down the name "Dudeguy McDudicus" across the top of their iTunes, and call that their mixed tape

Arcane Brilliance: Arcane 101

Welcome to another Arcane Brilliance , the weekly mage column that is the only place I know of where a gnome in a dress with glowing hands hanging out in the middle of the forest isn't so much creepy as it is socially acceptable. Since I see a growing trend among the other class columnists , and because I crave the approval of my peers, I bring you Arcane 101 .

Growing Pains: How to approach gearing up your tank

I'm going to assume that if you're still reading this past the title, you're interested in talking about tank gearing for your level 80 and that you've presumably used the Dungeon Finder to level him or her as a tank, but you're certainly not rocking full T9 yet. It's generally accepted that you'll be saving up emblems for that, and of course filling the gaps for rings and trinkets and such as you can. You also may be a DPS player who wants to switch over to tanking but don't have the gear yet

Scheduled maintenance on US Realms for February 2nd

It looks like there will be realm maintenance for all US realms this February 2nd. Since it seems to be somewhat extended (3 AM PST to 11 AM PST) and we're waiting for the 3.3.2 patch to drop in order to start Arena Season 8 , I'm willing to go out on a limb and suppose that there will most likely be the next minor content patch at this time.
