Justicar

I first mentioned working on this achievement back in 2009, though I had been working on it prior to that.  In fact I’ve been working on Justicar for at least four years, finally achieving it this morning.  It capped a … Continue reading

Blizzard creates massive incentive to lay down and die

In Tol Barad that is.  It’s very hard to read many of the official forums without coming across several complaints about Tol Barad.  I posted about it a few days ago myself and wondered how long it would take Blizzard … Continue reading
