  • Re: WOTLK going to be VISTA only?! PLZ NO!
    I'm not quite sure what to say about this. We haven't released any information about specific system requirements for the next expansion.

    I think it's best to take what your friend has said with a grain of salt and wait until we are further along to talk about system requirements.

    Keep in mind too that we have always tried to do our best to both advance the development of the game as well as balance the system requirements necessary so as to make the game as available to as many people as possible. We're not changing that philosophy. :)
  • Most Bloodthirsty Violent Race/Tribe in WoW?
    Worgen imo

    For the simple fact that they were summoned to Azeroth and possess no underlying goal, no directive, no plan of dominance or assembly. A killing machine with no reason to do so wins for bloodthirst/violence in my eyes.

    Even the magical prowess of the Kirin Tor was unable to keep them under control. They exist only to kill, maim and disembowel those they come across. Arugal only managed to remain among them, placing himself as a dominant (dubbed Father) figure in their pack, but even if he hadn't been dispatched by adventurers I'm sure the Arugal-Worgen relationship was headed toward the same end.

    The only thing keeping them from recognition is probably that they don't exist at varying (and high-end) player levels, which obviously can't be accurately used as a "power" comparison when dealing in lore terms.
  • Sunwell Raid instance still closed
    The Sunwell Raid instance on the PTR is still closed for public testing at this time. Check back here for updates on future testing opportunities during this week.

You may have noticed a quiet around WoW at Ten Ton Hammer. That quiet was the quiet before the storm. We took some time off to work on our new site with a complete redesign. If you haven’t seen it yet then visit:

http://www.tentonhammer.com/wow

Don't worry, your old urls are still the same. They'll automatically redirect for you so you don't have to edit your bookmarks or anything. Here is a list of neat new things with the new site!

  • The search function has been upgraded and will find everything on our site that is related to the search term.
  • Performance upgrades means it loads faster and is easier on your browser to render with the latest technology.
  • A complete site redesign with colors that easier on the eyes and a much more appealing/newer visual style.
  • Content delivery is done in a more defined manner. No longer is it flanked on both sides by bars and empty space. It’s contained on the right side, where your eyes first start reading, with nothing interrupting your view.
  • The latest features scroll bar shows you what’s new now and is in a compressed space.
  • The latest news and our latest content are separated so you don’t have to wade through all of the awesome new guides to find out what’s new with WoW.
  • Our site map is gone, along with sidebars, but the new top navigation can get you what you’re looking for when you want to find it. Not looking for a guide? That information is tucked away under the “Guide” header at the top so you don’t have to see a massive list of guides just to find an editorial or read the news. If you are looking for a guide then just click the guide tab and there you are! A clean, neat, and organized list of guides so you can find what you want when you want.

Our site hosts so many guides that there isn’t anything that we shouldn’t have a guide on. If there is something we don’t have a guide on and you’re curious if we can make one then don’t be afraid to email me at xerin@tentonhammer.com with your ideas!

With our site out of the way we’ve got a lot going on in the WoW community. For instance, patch 2.4 has seen loads and loads of drama and controversy. The Warlock nerf and then the unnerf has driven the Warlock community literally insane as they figure out if they either need to prepare to change out their gear and specs or if they can sit content with no changes coming. Not to mention the upcoming content unlocking being game wide instead of just locally on one server.

If you want to read more about 2.4 then look at our 2.4 Preview, an editorial on 2.4, and the Sunwell Isle preview.

That’s about it for this week’s news and headlines. Check in next Tuesday morning for more here at WoW at Ten Ton Hammer.
