Peacebloom VS. Ghouls - The Strategy Guide




Peacebloom VS Ghouls is a World of Warcraft mini-game based on the popular Popcap Games title Plants VS Zombies. A mob of cerebellum-craving zombies is about to invade your lawn, and your only defense is an arsenal of zombie-killing plants. Use spitters, rock-nuts, pumpkin bombs and more to eradicate zombies before they reach your front door and eat your brains!

Upcoming Class Changes

We have a lot of players at 85 now doing everything from Heroic dungeons to rated Battlegrounds, and the class design team is starting to prepare our list of items to investigate for our next patch.

Before you dive down into the meat below (not really a pleasant image, that), be advised that we’re still early in the preliminary stages. The patch isn’t coming out tomorrow. I wrote this before the end of the year and other things may have cropped up in the meantime. Just because your class or pet problem isn’t mentioned below doesn’t mean we won’t address it.

A complete resource for all the new zones in Cataclysm
World of Warcraft Cataclysm Progression Flowchart
World of Warcraft: Cataclysm may not contain as many new levels as previous expansions, but that certainly doesn't mean it isn't equally packed full of new content to explore. To help guide you on your journey, we've put together a complete progression flowchart for all the new overland zones and dungeons.

WoW - Making Sense of the Arena Season 9 Rating & Item Adjustment

Ratings have been reset to 1,500 and other crazy things going on Season 9.
There is nothing more important to a PvP’er in World of Warcraft than the Arena. The Arena is where teams of players fight it out against one another in ranked combat working toward gaining rating and points which allows them access to high level PvP only gear. World of Warcraft: Cataclysm brought about the “Conquest Point System” where Arenas and Rated Battlegrounds award Conquest Points used to buy the high level armor and weapons. The ninth season kicked off last week right after maintenance was completed, but contained within it a terrible bug that some players exploited to gain higher than normal MMR (matchmaking rating). This led to inflated ratings and teams that were far higher level than their skill/team composition should have allowed.

WoW Trick: Get easy Maelstrom Crystals

As it is difficult to get Maelstrom Crystals (Epic enchanting Crystals). There is an “easy” way to get them out.
Characters with Alchemy/Enchanting may craft Lifebound Alchemist Stone and disenchant it. Depending on your realm it may be profitable or not… but in my realm it costs 1000g to craft one and they go for 4000 in the auction house.

WoW Addon Guide: Minimal Archaeology

I trust Cataclysm content has been as fun for you as it has for me? Finally having settled in, I’ve started to power through my trade skills and new professions. Archaeology was something I purposefully abstained from in the beta, mostly because it was the piece of new content I wanted to experience fresh. So after reaching 85 and heading off on new archaeological adventures, I was instantly hooked.
Minimal Archaeology takes the essence of the awesome archaeology interface and transcribes it on a simple window with simple commands.
