Apocalypse Now!

The End is Nigh!

You have no chance to survive make your time!

…

So, yeah. 4.0.3a has dropped and brought with it the much anticipated doom of Azeroth. In the space of a few moments (plus or minus for the excruciatingly long download) everything that we had come to know and love about WoW was suddenly turned on its ear.

There are new quests replacing the old ones, the areas we’ve been acquainted with have been razed and burned. Not to mention all the class and ability upheavals. Seriously, I never thought I’d see the day when no one really wanted a heal spec priest! Tanks seem to be the en vogue class, especially prot spec since the healers are effectively worthless right now. Warlocks got some nerfing too. In fact, everything doing with elements seems to have taken a distinct nose dive. Makes sense, given the lore behind the expansion. Elementals have been in a state of disarray ever since the fall of the Lich King. No one has been able to explain their behavior, and now that Deathwing has come back it all falls into place.

So, it seems just about everyone has their nerfs to deal with, and tanks are the way to go if you’re going to buy wow account. Only question is, do it now or wait until a little after the expansion so that you can try one of the new races?

See, I’ve actually be waffling on this. Yes, there will be a degree of danger associated with buying something after the drop. Blizzard is known for their strict enforcement of them being the only one to provide anything WoW related. Just ask anyone who’s formed a classic server how forgiving Blizzard is about them horning in on corporate turf. It gets ugly in a hurry. Can’t think of one that’s survived more than a year, really.

I think I will buy myself a new Worgen if the opportunity presents itself. They should be easy to prot spec and I’d really like to put it through its paces. I’ll try goblins later. Too much like gnomes for my liking.

Anywho, keep an eye out for scammers. They’re really starting to get active. I found no fewer than 10 new ones today alone. And stay away from Craigslist. It’s even worse there.
