Howling Fjord Overview

Following our coverage on Northrend, this time we focus on the Howling Fjord. Located in South-East Northrend, it forms Daggercap Bay, which is, as we know, where Arthas originally landed on this continent seeking to defeat Mal'Ganis. After Arthas left his men behind, they formed the settlement of Valgarde - the Alliance's first settlement in Northrend. The Howling Fjord has a lot of tasks for players arriving in Northrend, and they will need to deal with many kinds of monsters, not only undead.

Being one of the new races introduced into the conflict in the cold north, the Vrykul are an ancient race of half-giant warriors native to the Howling Fjord. In ancient times, it is said that they inhabited all of this land, and founded a prosperous civilization, however, suddenly they all disappeared, leaving ruins, deserted villages and temples behind.

There have been many rumblings from Blizzard fans that don't really want Mists of Pandaria as the next (or any expansion) and ask the question "Why Mop?"

Mists of Pandaria's launch could happen by the end of the year so what better time to look at what the Collector's Edition could contain?

I finally got myself a Razor Naga (Molten Edition)!

About a year ago, I really wanted a naga mouse for my birthday. However, my girlfriend goes to BestBuy and the jerk working there tells her that I wouldn't like the naga because its too hard to push the buttons on the side. He told her to get me the World of Warcraft mouse (Cataclysm Edition).
