After a two week hiatus, News from the Front has returned. With the Thanksgiving holiday last week, things have been a bit slow. The post-new content lull hasn't helped much either. Mythic is in bug fixing mode, so I am not expecting anything really exciting for a while. What is the community up to?
Mythic
- Welcome to Tea Forks! A new blog by Epikk the Choppa. I'm not really sure what the name Tea Forks means, but stop by and say hi.
- Skuz writes about why he develops AddOns. He does have some nice ones, like FozAuction. I mainly develop AddOns for my own use, if the community uses them, it is another plus.
- The WAR Aura posts some screenshots featuring new +80RR gear. If these are the generic items, I can't wait to see some of the more rare ones.
- Grimnir writes about what the purpose of XP and Renown is in WAR. I tend to agree, experience levels don't seem all that use in today's WAR. Renown is what counts.
- Do melee healers (Disciple of Khaine/Warrior Priest) need a little Balancing? I think so, but the Price of Wargh does not. They don't need a huge change, but they just heal way too much.
- Hadrune puts on his theorycrafting hat and writes about some new crafting possibilities for WAR. I really hope we see something new for crafting, Combo talismans are an interesting idea...
- Jestor gets a new computer and it has a huge effect on WAR's performance. I'm a little jealous whenever I read this kind of posts. My computer is fine, but around 2 years old. Now I want a new one!
- Mr. Meh pulls a Favre and retires from blogging only to return a week later. Glad to see you back, now get blogging about that DoK... specifically about how I can kill them.
- Mmmmm Gud posts his Christmas List for WAR. Sadly, I don't think Santa visits Destruction. Good post idea, I may steal it for next week :)
- Video of a Praag keep siege. I really like the mobile cannons, gives a much more epic feeling to combat.
- An artistic look at some RvR moments from Karak-Norn.
- In the mood for some Witch Hunter gankage (and group play) to NES style music?
- Shaman video of an IC defense. I really like how he shows supplemental information, might have to try that out.
