No more healers needed in the future of WoW?

There are four talent trees out there that have been previewed by Blizzard. You can check them out here. 

So far, three healing classes, and the rogue. And all healing classes seem to be going in the same direction. Do damage so you can heal more.

LF8M VoA25, need dps, full on DKs

This sort of message I see all too often going around in trade chat. And every time I see it, I wonder what it means that you're full on DKs. If you need dps, a DK can dps, right?

But I guess they're going by their own greedy self. If I were a DK, I wouldn't want to share my loot with too many others....

Silly people.

AVR Mod Broken in 3.3.5

This is a notice that we’re making changes in 3.3.5 in attempts to break the ability for the AVR (Augmented Virtual Reality) mod to continue functioning. For those unaware, this mod allows players to draw in the 3D space of the game world, which can then be shared with others who are also using the mod. In some cases this manifests itself through drawing/tagging/defacing the game world, but more popularly is used to give visual guides for dungeon and raid encounters.

We’re making this change for two reasons. The invasive nature of a mod altering and/or interacting with the game world (virtually or directly) is not intended and not something we will allow. World of Warcraft UI addons are never intended to interact with the game world itself. This is mirrored in our stance and restriction of model and texture alterations. The second reason is that it removes too much player reaction and decision-making while facing dungeon and raid encounters. While some other mods also work to this end, we find that AVR and the act of visualizing strategy within the game world simply goes beyond what we’re willing to allow.

The change we’re making in attempts to break the functionality is light in its touch and approach. When blocking any functionality we run the risk of affecting other mods, but we’ve targeted the changes as carefully as possible. If we find that the AVR mod (or any mod attempting to replicate its functions) are usable after 3.3.5 we will take further, more drastic steps.

Female Worgen Models

MMO Champion has picures up of the female worgen models. If you want to see the lot, go check here.

The legs look like dranei legs, but that's not really what bothers me. I mean they have to make 4 footers walk up straight, so you're bound to get some oddly shaped legs.

What does bother me are the heads.

I stuck a male worgen head down for comparison, but I see nothing of the viciousness of the worgen back in the female worgen head. This looks more like a hyena than like a worgen so far.

What I do absolutely looooove are the purple eyes though!

But hey, work in progress, right?

To all of you melee newbs out there!

I do randoms on 5 characters now, and all too often I see melee happily chopping away in the mob's face. The worst part is that half the times I tell them to go stand behind, I get foulmouthed.

So for all those people out there who have absolutely no idea why it is that healers, tanks, and yaknow, generally just more experienced people, are asking you to stand behind the boss....
