How Your Hunter Can Dominate PvP Today

Written by Announcement Author on Saturday, November 14th, 2009 in Games and Gambling.

Even if your Hunter has avoided it in the past, PvP combat is in their future. Wrath of the Lich King (WotLK) has brought more advanced, real time battles to the game.

The first real time PvP battle zone is Lake Wintergrasp. In this new zone, players go at it on the live server to earn points they can use to shop for all sorts of special items, including the new Heirloom items that any character in their account regardless of that character’s level can take advantage of.

Given the popularity of Lake Wintergrasp and the trend toward PvP combat in the gaming industry, you’ll surely see more even more PvP in WoW in the future. Here’s what you need to know to handle your Hunter in this new world:

Playing a Hunter class character in WoW PvP requires many of the same skills real hunter possess. You need to be able to identify the target and understand its likely behavior so you can anticipate what it will do next. In addition, you need to know your own capabilities and the capabilities of your gear. And you need to be able to maneuver into the optimal position to take out your prey before they can take you out.

But playing a hunter in PvP involves much more than that. Understanding the optimum time to deploy your Freezing and Frost Traps and essential crowd control devices is one thing. You need to know how to manage the space between you and your prey to cause the most possible DPS damage in each duel. And you must do all this against a foe who is trying just as hard to out-think and out-maneuver you as you are to do the same to him.

If you want to be really successful in Hunter PvP combat, you need to know the strategy and tactics for killing each class of opponent. It’s particularly important to understand how Druids or Warriors or Rogues are likely to come at you. At the same time, you have to have a strategy for countering quick charges into hand-to-hand combat range by Warriors and Rogues.

You can learn much of what you need to win as a Hunter in PvP simply by spending time in the arena. But I know, from personal experience that if you try, you had better be prepared to get crushed and humiliated for a long time. I spent many frustrating hours ranking last or near last in the standings when I tried. It wasn’t until I picked up a Hunter PvP Guide that I was able to make real progress.

Because a quality Hunter PvP Guide contains the hard-earned experience of veteran Hunters, it will contain strategies and tactics that are not obvious to newer players. In short, a good PvP Guide will save you a big block of time you would otherwise have to spend dying in battle before you become skilled at PvP combat.

Club Penguin Viking Helmets

Written by Announcement Author on Tuesday, September 22nd, 2009 in Games and Gambling.

 

Club Penguin Viking Helmets

One of the most exciting activities in the game Club Penguin is purchasing clothing items in the Club Penguin clothing catalog, Penguin Style. The catalog is updated every month with new items that players can purchase to style their penguins. The catalogs are also well-known for having secrets and hidden items that can be found by clicking on special parts of the catalog. They are often hidden in fun places in the illustrations inside the catalog. You can find them by moving your mouse around the catalog pages until it changes into a hand which means you can click on that spot. When you do this, the special hidden item is revealed and can be bought just like a normal item in the catalog. These secret items change frequently, but one thing can always be found hidden somewhere inside the pages of Penguin Style: the viking helmet.

There are up to three known viking helmets hidden in each catalog. Two of them, the blue and the red viking helmets, appear every month in the clothing catalog from the Gift Shop. To get the red one, you must find the hidden location and click on it. To get the blue viking helmet, you click on the red viking helmet and then repeat the complete process of finding it and clicking it 3 more times. The location of the red viking helmet changes every month, but it is always found somewhere inside the catalog.

The gold viking helmet is extremely rare and has only appeared two times in the game’s history. It was in the 2/07 catalog and it again appeared in the 10/2008 catalog. Those were the only two times in the history of Club Penguin that you were able to find it. No one knows if and when it will return again. Because it is so rare it is a very exciting piece of clothing to have for your penguin.

Joana’s Horde Leveling Guide Review

Written by Announcement Author on Sunday, July 26th, 2009 in Games and Gambling.

Is Joana’s Leveling Guide for Real?

There is a lot of information out there asking if Joana’s Leveling guide is a scam and if you are one of the many WoW fans looking for a guide you would not be the only one who is sceptical. There is huge debate about this product in the forums because no one could work out how ‘Joana’ was managing to level so fast without cheating! I hope to show you in this article that Joana’s is in fact a 100% legitimate player and that you will be amazed at what you will find in their members area.

The guides’ creators play either a male character called Mancow or a female character called Joana. They basically show you how they managed to get to level 60 in a little under 5 days by recording the whole thing (with certain sections fast forwarded) so you can see exactly what they did. Click here to see our Joannas Horde Leveling Guide video…

Joana’s guide has been developed for people who are tired of grinding levels and looking up all the different ways to level. You will also get detailed maps and pictures in with the guide as well as the videos which help with the whole process.

If you are a WoW player already you will probably have heard of Joana or Mancow as one of the fastest levelers in the World of Warcraft community. So it is no coincidence that the Joana’s leveling guide is the best leveling guide for horde. It certainly helped me improve my leveling speed, as well as my enjoyment of the game!

What Do You Get?

When you download the guide it is in .pdf format and comes with all the maps and videos (the videos are taken from the full 4 day 20 hour run on the Jubei Thos server) and shows you all the difficult bits as well as all the points of interest marked with waypoints. (Click here for more information on Joanas Horde Leveling Guide).

There is now a great Mod that plugs directly into the games interface which means you don’t have to continually alt+tab. There is also a nice feature of an arrow to continually keep you on track. In the membership area, other benefits include:

* 1-25 Blood Elf Leveling Guide

* 1-60 Horde Leveling Guide

* Joana’s 60-70 Outland Step-by-Step Guide

* Level 60-70 Outland Reference Guide

* Change Log for Joana’s Guides

* Users Class Guides

* Free updates

* New: WotLK 70-80 Guide

Summary

All in all, Joana’s horde leveling guide has just about everything that the best leveling guide for horde should have. There are other WoW Leveling Guides that teach you what Joana does, but Joana quite frankly does it much better. However, the list above doesn’t do justice to how much information actually lies within the membership area.

Hot Off the Press: Joana’s 70-80 WotLK Guide is now Available! This guide blends seamlessly with the 1-70 Leveling Guide! To read the full review or for more information click here – Joannas Leveling Guide

Basic Guide to World Of Warcraft

Written by Announcement Author on Monday, July 6th, 2009 in Games and Gambling.

What is World of Warcraft?

World of Warcraft or WoW as it known, is a “Massively Multi player On-line Role-Playing Game” or MMORPG. This means thousands (sometimes tens of thousands) of players,  from all around the World exist in the same on-line realm at the same time. They leave behind the real world to undertake heroic quests in a land of fantastic adventures..

In the game there are two opposing factions at war with each other: the Horde and Alliance. When you have decided which side to play there are nine classes of character to choose from: Druid, Hunter, Mage, Paladin, Priest, Rogue, Shaman, Warlock and Warrior.Each class has its own unique set of talents and abilities. You can, depending on the class of character that you have, choose to build your character’s talent trees for damage-per-second (DPS), tanking, healing or a combination of these.

There are 10 races to play: Orcs, Tauren, Trolls, Undead, Blood Elves, Dwarves, Gnomes, Humans, Night Elves and Draenei and many professions your character can play: Alchemy, Black smithing, Cooking, Enchanting, Engineering, First Aid Fishing, Herbalism, Leatherworking, Mining, Skinning, Tailoring, Jewelcrafting, and Inscription. (Note: Within the Rogue class there are two unique secondary professions: Lock Picking and Poisons).

There are thousands of quests to undertake with multiple kinds of transportation. In addition, there are four realm types which will be the very first decision you will have to make before playing World of Warcraft. The aim of the game is money and reputation which will enhance your power and skill. A good place to start is to find a decent WoW Leveling Guide to help you through this mystical world.

Within the game itself there are two “modes” of character:

  • Player Characters (which are controlled by real people)
  • Non-Player Characters (which are controlled by the games’ software)

So you can find yourself playing a “real” person as well as the games created opponent.
Your character can earn copper, silver or gold to fund your adventures. In addition you will need to work on the different skills for your character.

There are a whole host of guides around and all do pretty much what they claim but some do it better by having additional features such as forums and members areas which help you level your character from 1-70 more easily. Many also have detailed gold guides and the latest up to date information on, for example, Wrath of the Lich King which takes you up to level 80! However, with that said, players are more than free to progress at their own pace and pit their skills against multiple on-line opponents. But if you would like a WoW Leveling Guide or more information on where to find WoW resource’s just click the link.

World of Warcraft is Blizzard Entertainment’s 4th game in the Warcraft series and is now played by over 10 million people world wide! If you have played any of their other games, it starts 4 years after the setting of Warcraft III in the world of Azeroth.

The Alliance and Horde are waring factions locked in a struggle for control of the land – and neither side is backing down. Alliance and Horde players maybe able to do battle with each other, but they cannot trade or even talk to each other so if you have friends that would like to play, make sure you belong to the same factions!

A good place to start your World of Warcraft quest is to get a WoW Leveling Guide. Follow the link to read up on the best World of Warcraft strategy guides available.
