You’d be surprised how much non-BlizzCon WoW news you miss out on while at BlizzCon. Well that’s what MMO-Champion and WoW Insider are for, right? Well while I catch up on the additional news and see about getting my mods in line for tomorrow’s patch here’s a wrap up of the major news from BlizzCon that I heard. Read more… »
BlizzCon is over, it has been a good ride.
We were able to avoid lines most of today, but that isn’t to say there were none. We had to skip on the game demos and talking murlocs (sorry Gill), but StarCraft II beta is expected “soon” and Jinx will have the murlocs available online around mid to late November so it is just a delay, not a loss.

Just a quick post for now. It is late for me (eastern time zone attendee at a western time zone con) and I have to get up early to buy Gillderon a talking murloc plush.
All in all BlizzCon is a lot of fun and a lot of things are better than last year, not that last year was bad by any means. It is also a lot bigger. I knew the crowd would be bigger. It was 8,000 last year and 15,000 this year. However I was not prepared for the size and scope of the lines. Thursday’s registration line took my group almost 5 minutes to get from the front door to the end of the line. The line itself was faster than last year, but was quite intimidating and still over an hour long. Today wasn’t much better. Read more… »
Just wanted to step up and say hi to everyone.
I am the “other” person working on this blog. I will be mostly dealing with the technical side of running a World of Warcraft blog but also adding my thought’s here and there, and occasionally posting a thing or two when Dedbitt cannot. Read more… »
I was one of the lucky few who managed to brave Blizzard’s online ticket purchase and come away with a ticket. Many gnomes died to bring us that uptime… Read more… »
I’ve been playing the same rogue character since I started with WoW in December 2004. I tried a few alts, but only one alt ever became level capped, and that was done so I could get some raid tanking experience in anticipation of my future death knight. I love my rogue and have done much with it. I raided up into tier 2 content in Azeroth. In Outland my guild is pushing through tier 6, trying to down Illidan before expansion. I’ve done PvP, from getting a Knight-Captain rank in the old honor system to 5v5 arena teams. The rogue is exalted throughout Azeroth and Outland, has won the Stranglehorn Vale fishing contest, has all the raid titles (though Hand of Ad’al always felt like the beginning or ending of a joke), and a pretty green netherdrake.

I’m Dedbitt, the resident death knight. My partner is Gillderon, the geek behind this site. Together we came up with the idea for this blog centered around WoW’s newest class, death knight. I’ll be your guide to all things death knight while Gillderon keeps this place nice and shiney, but expect us both to do some off speccing and doing different roles from time to time. Read more… »
