WoWDecrypted: Faster?
http://wowdecrypted.blogspot.com/2009/12/faster.html
Demystifying World of Warcraft and other games. Sunday, December 20, 2009. There are several theories out there about the best method for faster levelling. One theory is that killing "hard" monsters at or just above your level earns more experience per hour than killing easier ones a couple of levels below. I set out to test this theory recently on a couple of lower level alts. The results are inconclusive. The warrior started out killing the level 20-22 humans at Durnholde keep. Syndicate Watchman.

WoWDecrypted: not quite dead
http://wowdecrypted.blogspot.com/2010/10/not-quite-dead.html
Demystifying World of Warcraft and other games. Monday, October 18, 2010. Obviously I haven't updated this recently. That doesn't mean I've stopped playing WoW or even contemplating updating this place though. The release of the pre-Cata 4.01 patch is probably the most recent event for me - I should get back and revise my hunter pet information since a whole lot of changes have been made. If anyone wants to chase me down I'm most often on Dath'Remar, Moon Guard, or Nessingwary servers.

WoWDecrypted: Ravasaur!
http://wowdecrypted.blogspot.com/2009/11/ravasaur.html
Demystifying World of Warcraft and other games. Sunday, November 1, 2009. My three highest Horde characters have recently been working on their Ravasaur mounts. Here is a selection of screenshots. First, Cryptography, a rogue, is considering a career change to hunter. My Ravasaur pet was about 16 at the time. He grows a little more! Kytlin is an orc hunter. She came across a heart-rending scene in Ungoro:. Bug Eggs are great for the growing Dino! Cryptoknight, an undead Deathknight also has a ravasaur pe...

WoWDecrypted: April 2012
http://wowdecrypted.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
Demystifying World of Warcraft and other games. Wednesday, April 18, 2012. I've just posted a whole lot of RP information for my wow characters on "The Team" page. Wow is still a game that holds a lot of interest for me and I'm online when I can every few days but I have Real Life commitments in the form of a newborn daughter. I may post more game related stuff here when motivation strikes but it wont be anything like regularly! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Cure the Cash Flow Blues.

WoWDecrypted: Pet choice for the levelling hunter
http://wowdecrypted.blogspot.com/2009/07/pet-choice-for-levelling-hunter.html
Demystifying World of Warcraft and other games. Tuesday, July 14, 2009. Pet choice for the levelling hunter. Here I am expanding on what was an already long comment on Mania's latest RFC: whats-the-weakest-leveling-pet. I am slowly in the process of revising my own pet reviews and this RFC is something I feel fully qualified to comment on. My original comment is number 59 on Mania's site. I've reposted it here and expanded some. Pets get their first talent point at level 20. The first few points make...

WoWDecrypted: Non-Warcraft Adventures
http://wowdecrypted.blogspot.com/2009/08/non-warcraft-adventures.html
Demystifying World of Warcraft and other games. Thursday, August 20, 2009. World of Warcraft is the game that occupies most of my online time but is far from the only game I play. I have a lot of older PC games that I play when I'm not feeling particularly social. One example is X2:the threat, a space sim I picked up at the bargain bin recently for $3 or so. Pretty cool title. I also dabble in a number of other MMO games. Even before I took up Wow, I was and continue to play Eve online. I haven't played ...

WoWDecrypted: Instance Runthrus - The worst thing you can do for a friend.
http://wowdecrypted.blogspot.com/2008/07/instance-runthrus-worst-thing-you-can.html
Demystifying World of Warcraft and other games. Thursday, July 10, 2008. Instance Runthrus - The worst thing you can do for a friend. Taking your low level friends through an instanced dungeon with your high level character is just about the worst thing you can do to "help" them! Its generally quick and easy and they get good gear from it as well as reasonable exp but is still evil. All this of course mostly applies to someone's first character. Runthrus for alt characters are less evil though some o...

WoWDecrypted: Instance roles
http://wowdecrypted.blogspot.com/2008/09/instance-roles.html
Demystifying World of Warcraft and other games. Wednesday, September 17, 2008. Just thought I'd put down some ideas for tactics in small groups and low level instance running. This isn't the complete guide, just various tips and tricks. The same roles are mostly valid in higher level instances but class specialisation has a noticeable effect; no more rogue tanks in higher instances please! Warriors and Paladins are the tank of choice due to much better armour than other classes. Bearform Druids get b...

WoWDecrypted: Disbelieving Suspenders
http://wowdecrypted.blogspot.com/2010/03/disbelieving-suspenders.html
Demystifying World of Warcraft and other games. Wednesday, March 24, 2010. As players of an online fantasy game, we willingly suspend our disbelief in these things to take part in an enjoyable experience. Familiarity with other fantasy stories and movies means that we are unsurprised at non-human races, that dragons exist and can fly, or that magic has practical applications. All these are accepted as part of the new "world" we are involved in. Surely someone would have cleared them out by now? Awesome I...
