Well, I finally decided to level my orc shaman, as only having my alliance shaman experience the fun of raiding and see all that mail that dropped like rain when I was on my warrior vanish like smoke. Nothing but plate the second I can't wear plate. Plus, my orc has bear heads on his shoulders, and there's nothing wrong with that. Since it's my second shaman to 80 I decided to play with leveling strategies. I started the day as enhancement (working on my telekinesis as you can see) and then moved on to elemental after digging my old ZA gear out of the bank. My experience as elemental indicates that I need to suck a lot less at elemental. Somehow on every pull, I would end up with six or seven mobs crawling all over me giving me awful slobbering undead kisses. Or biting me. One of the two, I always get them confused. I'd like to thank Thunderstorm for its support.
Two Bosses Enter ... but only One Boss Leaves, in WoW Insider's series of fantasy death matches. This season's duelists hail from the five-man instances of Wrath of the Lich King. This week's boss matchup pulls two prisoners from The Violet Hold: Moragg vs. Lavanthor. Let's take a look at the eye-popping action to find out whose bark is worse than his bite. The usual rules apply: assume that the opponents share similar levels, health pools and damage output, and that they are fighting right there in the prison. Let's keep the debate on the three S's: Style, Story and Scale. Don't get caught up in game mechanics and what players might do in each encounter. Consider the flavor each villainous gladiator brings to bear, then cast your vote for who you think would come out on top.

Two Bosses Enter ... but only One Boss Leaves, in WoW Insider's series of fantasy death matches. This season's bosses come from the five-man instances of Wrath of the Lich King. This season of Two Bosses Enter, One Boss Leaves rolls inexorably onward with an easy victory for Gal'darah, the High Prophet of Akali from Gundrak, over Halls of Stone Collosus Krystallus. Spectators tightened the focus on balancing mechanics vs. the spirit of the fight this time around, with Hoggersbud observing, "I think an assumption how close you are to Krystallus affecting the shatter damage would be silly reasoning, since as you say, he does do a knockback. If you're going to make it a proximity to Krystallus, make it increase the further away you are instead. At least that'd be something worthwhile. Otherwise you might as well just ignore the shatter effect. ... Just handwave that shatter is going to hurt Gal'darah for some reasonably acceptable amount, and work from there."
