Garrosh Hellscream: Then and Now

Fortified citadels lie in ruins. Once-verdant forests burn brightly in the twilight of the setting sun. And arid stretches of desert, known to have claimed even the hardiest of travelers, now house fertile oases. The breaking of Azeroth changed a great many things. While the altered landscapes of the Eastern Kingdoms and Kalimdor may be the most noticeable evidence of Deathwing's violent return, many of Azeroth's heroes have also undergone drastic physical and mental transformations of their own.

Poll: /cast [target=WeeklyPoll] Vote

Some players use macros and some players don't. It all depends on how you like to play the game. You might be the type of player who uses macros daily in raids and Arenas, combining an entire arsenal of abilities into just a handful of button presses. Maybe macros aren't your thing and you prefer to activate each of your character's actions manually. Perhaps you land somewhere in between, using a macro here and there, but never feeling the need to go overboard. This week's poll asks, "How often do you use macros?"

Poll: If It's Red, It's Dead

In previous polls and forum discussions, we've focused a lot on PvE content: which new quest zone was your favorite, how you celebrate certain holiday events, and even if you've been slaughtered by local wildlife. But PvE is only one (delicious) slice of the World of Warcraft pie. For many of you, when someone asks, "What is best in life?" there's only one answer:  "To crush the newbs, see them driven before me, and read their lamentations on the forums" -- and we salute you. There are a variety of ways to defeat your foes, though, and we want know which of those you enjoy the most. Do you like to fight the good fight in Battlegrounds, go toe-to-toe with opponents in Arenas, or are you more inclined to see the world, meet new players, and engage in a little Player-vs.-Player tête-à-tête?
