The Mage They Call Jayne(z)2009-09-19Very scary. They're the ones that ripped the world apart. There are probably more... but the majority of Outland where they were is gone now.
In "Death's Door," there's one of these portals... except it's open. It's active and glowing all blue, and there's a big-ass Eredar Highlord beside it. This does not bode well for the safety of the world (of Warcraft), now does it! But there are way too many demons infesting the place for me to land and see how hard the Highlord hits, so I take off for greener pastures.
I mean that quite literally, too. To Terokkar! And then, from Terokkar to the recently-opened Shadowmoon Valley!
While flying into Shadowmoon, I pass
high into the mountains separating the two zones, and find a large city of the arakkoa birdmen, called Skettis. Hm. Interesting, and as near as I can tell, completely inaccessible if you lack a flying mount.
I'd like to spend some more time in Skettis and see what's what, but there's no time! I'm running out of time! And I
highly doubt that Blizzard will implement "Caverns of Time: The Impending Deadline" anytime soon.
...that's actually a really cool idea. How about it, Blue?
GW: I think that's called 'Mt. Hyjal'. Anyone want to take a bet on how long it'll take to get the first person attuned?
Crossing the zone border, I find myself in Shadowmoon Valley. I also find myself flying above a giant freakin' Burning Legion base. Not only is there a big Fel Reaver at the back of Legion Hold, but there are countless Infernals, Doomguards, Nathrezim, et cetera patrolling the zone.
This was my first look at Shadowmoon Valley, and my first thought was: "Damn, this is going to be one hell of a zone."
GW: One HELL of a zone, definitely.
I think I was pretty damn right. I'm usually not one to enjoy the blasted, hellish-type zones like Searing Gorge or the Badlands. I like the more serene areas like Winterspring or Ashenvale because I think the contrast between these beautiful areas and the impending violence is fairly striking. Also, they're more fun to look at. Shadowmoon is another one of the hellscapes, but I'll be damned if it isn't awesome.
The first impression--and last impression as well--that I got of Shadowmoon Valley was that it was ...

World of Warcraft Warrior Ability2009-08-28(damage).
Many think of the warrior as a powerhouse, slashing everything in sight and dealing high amounts of damage to everything in its path. In reality, the warrior is not the best damage dealer in the game. True, with the proper planning, a powerhouse trained warrior can be great at soloing, but it is nearly useless in groups.
The tank is the more useful of the two because a war...
