Wrath of the Lich King pre-release patch coming soon (World of warcraft)

The Wrath of the Lich King expansion for Blizzard's much-loved World of Warcraft is all ready to invade the PC gaming world by storm. But before that, a new content patch is in order.

Says Blizzard, you can expect this patch to arrive in the coming weeks, and this is quite akin to what Blizz did prior to the release of The Burning Crusade.

This patch for WotLK essentially caters to the bridging of the current game content with the expansion. Gotta keep it all in the family, you know. As expected, there are, of course, exciting changes and additions, the most prominent of which are the following:

  • New class spells and talents
  • Stormwind Harbor
  • Barbershops in capital cities
  • Zeppelin towers outside of Orgrimmar and Tirisfal Glades
  • Two brand-new Arenas featuring challenging new layouts, terrain hazards, and moving obstacles
  • Guild calendar
  • Hunter pet skill revamp
  • New profession: Inscription

Do take note, though, that this is by no means the final list, so we're betting we'll be seeing some more stuff thrown our way before the patch comes out. Or if not, well, we can always check it out ourselves, right?

Oh, and do take heed, particularly all Burning Crusade players. You guys will be able to select Inscription as one of the two professions and level up to a skill level of 375 with it. On the release of WotLK, those who purchase and install the expansion will be able to continue their leveling in Inscription, as well as other professions, even beyond 375.

Watch out for the full patch notes! They're coming very soon.

Dyack: EVE Online 'unparalleled' compared to World of Warcraft (Warcraft)

, humans and night elves? In the eyes of Silicon Knights founder Denis Dyack it does. During an interview conducted by videogaming247, Dyack weighed both Blizzard's World of Warcraft and CCP Games' EVE Online on what he considered the superior MMO game.

Dyack admitted to trying out WoW for nearly a month when he told himself, "You know, I've got to stop this". He then came the conclusion that compared to EVE Online, the latter had more depth in terms of content and gameplay. Here's a quote from Dyack regarding his opinion on the Sci-Fi MMO game:

I was really, really big into EVE Online. I love EVE Online, and actually for me personally I actually think it s a better game. I know it s a lot harder core, but the depth of it s unparalleled and I love it. But I have to stop, force myself to stop playing those games because it takes so much time.

He was also relieved about finally finishing the development for Too Human. He said that this meant he now has time to play games of all sorts. Anyway, that apparently is his two cents regarding what he considers the better MMO title.

Warcraft Characters app for iPhone gets new update
Screenshot of Warcraft Characters app for iPhone - Image 1If you want to pull up some quick information about your World of Warcraft character (or anyone else's for that matter), why don't you try browsing for it on your iPhone. I'm not talking about the WoW Armory. There's a quicker way for you to do that - on the new and updated version of the Warcraft Characters app for the iPhone.

Released last July on the App Store, the WoW-friendly application now features some interesting and useful additions. Aside from compatibility with Apple's firmware 2.0, the app now allows you to view a character's gear, as well as his or her's reputation status.

In addition, non-US players can now make use of the app since it provides extended compatibility for characters from all other realms, such as those from China, Korea and Taiwan. The only thing missing seems to be the talents list for each character viewed. Otherwise, as a portable Armory, this app definitely does the job quite well.

Warcraft Characters is available on the App Store for free, so go ahead and download a copy. We'll be sure to keep tabs on any further updates regarding this nifty app as soon as we get them.

Fishing Bot (Wow)

Features
- Bobber scanning has test results of 95%+ accuracy with great speed
- Fish scanning has test results of 70%+ accuracy
- Easy-to-change constants for tweaking
- Supports any resolution (yes, even non-standard ones like really stretched out)
- Supports CosmosUI
- Dynamic RGB color finding (works in practically any light)
- AFK-Away

Use
1. Copy/Paste the code below into AC Tool (found at http://www.actool.net
2. Run WoW in Windowed Mode
3. Put fishing skill in slot '0'
5. Under Video Options (press Escape to bring up main menu), UNCHECK 'Hardware Cursor'
6. Zoom into 1st person mode
7. Review constants in script, particularly 'runCount' to set how many times the script should run
8. Run the macro

Notes
- For best results, try turning all fancy graphics options off (especially 'Terrain Highlights' under Shaders.. takes all the brightness out of the water) and use a low resolution (perhaps under 800×600, the smaller the faster)
- If you are having problems finding the bobber, where the mouse simply goes over the bobber and never stops, or goes a little bit past the bobber before stopping, try increasing the 'scanSpeed' constant. Do this only after turning off all fancy graphics and decreasing resolution
- Please please please fish AWAY FROM CIVILIZATION. We need as little publicity as possible, thankyouverymuch.
- Try to find a spot where you are level with the water. Run the script once or twice and note the highest line where the script scans for the bobber. Then throw 15 or so casts manually and note where the highest cast goes. Try to match those two lines up, you will get much faster results.
- If the bobber is landing outside of the scan area, adject the scan area percentage constants in the macro to include the areas where the bobber lands.
- You can turn off AFK Away if you want to chat while fishing

Future
- The fish scanner isnt the best right now, will definitely need tweaking. I'll try to get that working better in a future update.
- An inventory management system to automatically open up containers such as clams, bottles, chests, etc.
- An option to quit fishing after a set amount of time
- An option to turn on random timings between casts/clicking of the fish/etc

The Bot

[Sweet Spot] Exploit Area 1 Westfall (Warcraft)

I've been debating releasing this nice little secret, so please, PLEASE, try to keep this a secret, otherwise it might get recoded.

Note: Horde fellas, this is useless for you. Sorry.

WHERE/WHAT:

In Northweatern Westfall, running along the cliff, there is a lone windmill with a tiny shack at its base. It is surrounded by 6-7 Defias mobs, levels 12-13.

Whats the catch?

They respawn immediately. Get the drift?

WHAT LEVEL YOU SHOULD BE:

I would suggest 24+, however I was 33 when I discovered it, and it is still extremely useful when you reach 60.

WHAT TO USE THIS SPOT FOR:

1) Grinding/Maxing new weapon proficiencies…
2) Leveling a toon (lvl 5-16)…and getting him rich, as well.
3) Farming Linen. (For you linen clowns, I easily loot 100 linen in about 5 minutes).
4) Farming these nice little nets that occasionally drop.

There are a lot of these little sweet spots in this game. Hell, how do you think all of these beta-buggers get rich so quickly?

Keep it secret…keep it safe.

See Ghosts (Warcraft)

If you have a warlock cast 'Detect invisibility' on you, you can see Lorderon Citizens on your way in to Undercity. They are lvl 15, and drop linen, and some copper. It'd be a good lowbie lvling spot if you could get detect invisibility on you at that lvl :/

This also works for the people in Darrowshire and on that island Scholo is on, only they are lvl 55ish, not 15.

Rogues! Pickpocket Gold Strat! (Warcraft)

While there's lots of strats out there for making gold, it's easy to overlook the obvious and simple. Rogue Pickpocketing is one of these often overlooked abilities that can make you more gold than you realize… often in very short amounts of time.

Taking 5/5 in Master of Deception is a good option anyway, but it definitely helps in thievery. Get Nightscape boots as well (craftable by most mid-upper level LW) as they add +1 bonus to stealth. 30+ mobs seem to carry an average of 2-3s each, plus mana and healing pots, as well as merchant fodder that sells for 1-2.5 silver each. At higher level mobs, you'll even snag the occassional gemstone, and virtually all mobs will often give a Junkbox or Lockbox, which is invaluable in increasing lockpicking skills.

Go to an area full of NPCs that have pickable pockets. These include, surprisingly enough, skellies, ghouls, and other undead, Furblogs and timbermaw, and virtually any humanoid attackable NPC. But here's a special little spot I've found where I make easily 5-10 gold in 20 minutes or less.

In BRD, after your group leaves, you can stay behind by yourself WITHOUT getting booted back to your hearth spot. THIS WORKS ONLY IF YOU SUCCESSFULLY DID THE ARENA, although you can try it with a higher probability of aggro otherwise. Go to the gallery that holds the spectators for the Arena (Ring of Law). They will not aggro you if you successfully defeated the challenge, and you can stealth and pickpocket the entire gallery (approximately 40 NPCs) with ease, with each npc holding between 3-4.5 silver. That alone is 1.2-1.7 gold, but I get 4-6 Superior healing pots, 4-5 Heavy Lockboxes, merchant trash (another 20-30s), AND a Star Ruby EVERY TIME.

WotLK beta servers down for new build; level cap to be raised? (Warcraft)

The beta servers for Wrath of the Lich King are down , ladies and gents. That's because they are about to unleash a new build, and you bet this is but the calm before the storm.

As rumor would have it, based on the Gamona video interview at Leipzig earlier today, the level cap will be raised to 80. We cannot know for sure until the servers go back up. The downtime is expected to run for about six to eight hours, which started at 2:30PM PST.

WoWlympics ongoing at WoWwiki

WoWlympics of WoWwiki - Image 1

There's another Olypmics happening apart from the one in Beijing, and this one's much closer to home. WoW Insider is reporting that WoWwiki is holding their very own WoWlympics (wow, that's a lot of wows right there), a scavenger hunt-type contest.

Blizzard will be in cooperation for the event, and so you can win five Wrath of the Lich King US Beta keys, 20 WorldWide Invitational cards containing codes for EU Beta keys and the Tyrael vanity pet. Both beta keys can be converted for use between regions as necessary.

The WoWlympicks kicked off with Clopper Wizbang asking players to search the site for five missing items. Each are located on a WoWwiki page and clues are provided along the way. Now, each of these missing items you have to locate is worth one entry to the WoWlympics sweepstakes, with a bonus three entries if you find all five. This adds up to a total of eight entries eligible for the grand draw.

The event runs until August 25. To join, just follow the source link provided below. That should lead you to the official WoWlypmics page. Good luck!
