MMO patch promotion: two approaches
Both Guild Wars 2 and World of Warcraft will be launching patches late August by the looks of things (WoW's might end up a bit later). For GW2 this is the one year anniversary patch entitled 'The Queen's Speech'. For WoW this is 5.4 The Siege of Orgrimmar. Both have taken different approaches. Please be aware,... Continue Reading →

MMO Guides: Cheating vs Enabling
When new content appears in Guild Wars 2 or SWTOR, there is always a guide on Dulfy to go with it. The debate every player faces is this: do I use the guide or do I attempt to do the achievement without it? And when you raid in WoW, do you read up in advance or... Continue Reading →
Morrighan’s Throne of the Four Winds Crib Sheet
Since my historical crib sheets still see some views I'm going to re-post the ones I wrote as pages and link them up.

Moar Achievements: Midsummer 2012
The Midsummer Festival is one of the easiest of the holiday achievements, but one of the most time consuming. As a bonus though, you will make at least 500 gold at level 85 doing this achievement. Its largely unchanged from 2011 other than the fact that Cataclysm Fires and Desecration achievements have been added to... Continue Reading →
Moar Achievements: Children’s Week 2012
This is a re-write of the previous year's guide. There are no changes to the holiday from last year, but I've updated the format of the post. There is only one new thing to consider: account wide pets. I highly recommend checking your toons to see which characters have which pets and targeting any pets you... Continue Reading →
If you think Ji Firepaw didn’t need to be changed, you are the problem
This is a very angry post. It is not a rant, because rant implies that you are angry about nothing. I am angry about something very important. For this history behind this take a look at the WoW Insider article. I'm going to start assuming you've read it or the original complaint thread. My own... Continue Reading →
