As pitched highlighted on the Warcraft front page, the latest Penny Arcade Featured Comic from something called the Official Strategy Guide, available in the Blizzard store which is temporarily offline right now. I’m going to assume that much of the humor is lost because it’s missing the context. Heh? It’s funny cuz he’s naked, right? And nobody wants to see that? Probably the strat guide is plenty funny on its own without naked orcs, but that’s only a guess … because the store is broke … which is also funny.

You’d think after almost 16 months Blizzard would be able to post complete patch notes, right? Wrong. In their continuing effort to upstage Sony as the most evil company to run ever a MMORPG, patch 1.9.3, like almost every patch before it, had its own set of stealth nerfs. On the bright side pulling Baron Geddon and Shazzrah back to Garr has become incredibly simple once again, thanks to the out of combat res nerf. Simply pull and kill the two lava packs closest to the cave entrance and then have your hunter tag and instantly feign. Within seconds each boss will come charging right to your waiting raid. I wonder how long it’ll be until this gets its very own emergency “patch”.
