Raiding "New-to-You" Brings Back the Fun!

Blizzard has a long standing tradition in WoW of truly making the players feel as though they have achieved something when end-game encounters are finally defeated. So much so, in fact, that many players never get the chance to see bosses like Ragnaros, Nefarion, C'thun, Illidan... and so on.

To make a long story longer - a couple of weekends ago I finally got to see Kel'thuzad, and his friend Sapphiron thanks to a weekly Naxxramas run that takes place on Nathrezim!


If you haven't tried this I HIGHLY recommend it! Not only is it a great chance to get your alts some sweet leveling gear (if the raid is big enough), it is also a sweet opportunity to see some new-to-you content. Many shall mock, but I eagerly anticipate taking my Death Knight to kill Kil Jaedin. Lewts to after the jump...


Lots of fun - and afterwords we raided AQ40 and ripped C'thun a new eyehole! My warrior Bessi (see dancing cow movie in the Video Cave section) was 2 points away from winning the roll for [Dark Edge of Insanity]. PLUS a [Vanquished Tentacle of C'thun] dropped. Again, no cigar on that one. I DID win a [Silithid Claw]. however, so it was totally worth it.

Wrath of the Lich King Cinematic

Today Blizzard released the opening cinematic for the Wrath of the Lich king. The dynamic between Arthas and his father makes this particularly compelling. Sorry, no gnomes in this one...
