On hiatus

At this moment in time, I have not played WOW in many months, I had an active sub that I was not making use of so I cancelled it. Uni/child commitments are taking over my ability to play anything but a casual game which is not something I can really do with WOW!

On the Mist of the Panderan expansion: Wow. I dunno what to say. It looks awesome, but Im not sure its wise to blatantly rip off Kung Fu Panda ^.^

Still, it will be interesting to see what it is like when it is out, for sure enough Ill be along to bump my lil mage to 90 and play the new content as always! I may even blog about my journeys properly. :p I see a lot of people still hit the page for the Arcane Mage Shot rotation update post... eek. Maybe I should research and actually update it!

Active!

The account is active. Woot!

I dont plan to play end game, I dont have the time... if I can wiggle something into my schedule I am willing, but for the time being I think Im gonna hit an RP server and be "one of those roleplaying types!"

Mage gear in 4.2

Stumbled on an interesting article on my RSS feed. Basically: getting new gear in patch 4.2 for mages. Daily Quests, crafted epics and raid gear that is new to 4.2, certainly suits my palette! I want to play again! Gah to this busyness!

WOW: Numbers drop, trial improves. :)

So, ActiBlizz announced that they have had a dip in subscribers recently (about 5% - but thats half a million active accounts!) thats bigger than most other MMORPG's even have.

Now - they have changed the trial - free to play... forever - with a level 20 cap. That gives a good chance for folks who want to play the game to try it out and get a feel for the game and the classes without a timeout. I likey this! I you aint played, go get the trial. Now! :) I see this bringing a chunk of new players in - a good move from ActiBlizz.

So much to post about...

I may have been quiet lately, but I actually have an excess of post ideas and I just cant get organised to get them down on... keyboard.

There are many aspects of the forthcoming patch that interest me, I have been listening to past episodes of The Instance and have a lot to chat about there, my Instance Episode catalogue has more in but the back-episodes have dissapeared from the website so I dont see the point in continuing until I can get access to them to continue downloading and listening to the episodes.

Amongst all this there have been random topics to discuss, such as healing strategies, tanking, my screenshot library to share and more.

Watch this space, I might pick something and roll with it soon!
