So of all the apps you mentioned, which one would you say is the best? I see a lot of tweets coming from tweetdeck, do you think that one is worth downloading? I just joined twitter a few weeks ago, andlove finding the best ways to utilize it, so thank you for this list.

Great artical, I unfortunately had some problems printing this article out, The print formating looks a little screwed over, something you might want to look into.

Ah. I’d heard about him being a Guardian of Tirisfal a long time ago, so it may have been a rumour.

The guardian seems to be some Quarter-orc/quarter-draenei/half-human (WFT) dude called Med’an

I might be wrong, but afaik Thrall left his job as Warchief to join the Earthen ring, to go stabalize the rift created by Deathwing. Thats at least what is says on Wowwiki, but well, i know you cant always trust that which is written. I also cant find anything there, to support Thrall being guardian of tirisfal, but again Wowwiki can be as wrong as anyone else.

He does however also seem to apaer in the goblin starting zone.

I hadn’t heard anything about Thrall being in the Maelstrom. Last time I heard of it, he became a new Guardian of Tirisfal. I know he’s in the game somewhere, but I’m not sure where. I imagine in Tirisfal.

Yes, the expansion really seems great. It’s been a long time coming, and I really think it’s the best thing they could have done to the game right now. There has been such a huge difference between current content and old, Azeroth content, and that difference is now fixed. They realise that they can’t just keep adding stuff, they need to make some big changes too. Playing alts no longer sees you going through horribly inconvenient quests of olden times.

Well Thrall cant stay at the maelstrom forever, he is bound to come back and kick some Garroshs ass eventualy (Unless someone else beats him to it). At least thats what i hope. But well, you never know, he might have a dream of his father telling him to get a grip, or something like that :).

Anyway i like how positivly you speak abouth this expansion. I might actually have to get it when it releases, something i was not planing to do.

Thanks!

I’m really not sure what will become of Garrosh. On the one hand, I think he might just pull something off that shows he has some level of honour at some point, gaining the respect of the horde. On the other, and seemingly more likely, he will be overthrown/defeated due to his bloodlust. We’ll have to see how it plays out.

Worgen mounts are a little weird. There’s some concept art showing some pretty interesting pig-like creature from a while ago, but I haven’t heard anything about it recently. I’m currently about level 24 and picked up my mount at 20 — a nightsaber. Didn’t require any special rep, it seems the default right now. Most likely temporary, but we’ll see how it plays out.

As for the goblin mount, I don’t think that’s an actual mount — at least, not yet. It’s part of the quest lines in the starting zone.

I expected a full set of epics in the Blizzcon Bag — no kidding, I mean it’s beta! — but it actually contained a useless level 5 item or something. Bah.

I’ll get to writing up Darkshore tomorrow or so. I’m done with the area now, and found most of it very pleasant. It really speaks of the direction Blizzard are going with this expansion.

Nice screeners Strobe.
Seems like a really nice story line they have made there, i especially liked the part with Sylvanas, and how she disorbey Garrosh (i don’t want him to be the new warchief, thinking he can just (almost) purge Orgrimmer of all “the weak races” like us trolls).
For a short time i was almost scared that blizz was giving worgen horses as racial mounts, but it seemed really stupid, and after a quick look i found out it wasnt the case (Also i LOVE the goblin mount, check it out if you havnt already).

So what is actually in that Red Blizzcon Bag?
