MOP Power Leveling Nerf: Scarlet Monastery

Posted on by Almost Gaming

The long hailed favorite of in-game power levels, most of them dual boxing or doing run throughs, is getting a substantial nerf.   The instance will go from 4 instances total to 2 instances, a lot of the areas will be available but the armory and cathedral appear to be available as continuations through the two side entrances now.

What this means for power levelers is that there may not be any advantage to running through Scarlet Monastery and it will become more like a normal instance.   Continue reading →

Just like with BC, Wrath of the Lich King was untouched in the Cataclysm Expansion, therefore, if you could AoE effectively in WOTLK then you can still AoE effectively in WOTLK because nothing was changed.  There are some very good AoE spots however that did receive some of a nerf in the forms of reduced experience, but the best spots are listed below.

MOP Pandaren Monk: Fists of Fury Nerf Imminent

Posted on by Almost Gaming

For those of you playing in the Mists of Pandaria beta you’re probably well aware of the monk ability Fists of Fury.  What it does is pummels targets in front of the caster (no limit to how many) for 4 seconds while stunning them and causing damage.  At the lower levels, this damage is enough to essentially kill all of the NPCs.  This ability will most likely go through a nerf or re-balancing adjustment as it might otherwise be called.

Due to the 45 second cooldown on Fists of Fury this allows for the monk, with the aid of a healer, to pull very very large groups of enemies (as many as you can find) and kill th Continue reading →

Cata AoE Grinding Spots – Cataclysm AoE Leveling
