    Gearing Up: Reputation gear for DPS Death Knights

    So you’re a DPS death knight, eh? Rejoice! The good news is, you won’t be doing much rep grinding for gear! The bad news is, it’s because most of the factions don’t have anything worth grinding for! Hurray! Alliance Vanguard/Horde Expedition: Rating: The only reason...

    Summarizing

    * As you can guess from the previous post, I did in fact finish the Wrathgate chain (at the same time as Might of Dragonblight, much like Fim). That was awesome! I have not, however, done the quest that immediately follows it. So shhh. I...

    My Kingdom For A Horse That Can’t Scream: TSF Takes You To Stratholme

    This is the Acherus Deathcharger. Many of you are no doubt familiar with it by now; this is the devil-horned horse that all Death Knights come out of their starting area with, even if it did start as a mere colt when you stole it....

    Staying Grounded

    Current gold total: around 800 gold. I think I’ll just keep saving up gold and keep Zulfon’s feet on the ground for now. Here’s why: Flight skill: 800 gold. Epic flight skill: 5000 gold. Cold weather flying skill: 1000 gold. Winged Steed of the Ebon...
