Let’s just get down to business today, where I get to present my own tinfoil hat look at lore.

Yous95 asked:

With the incoming destruction of Theramore by the Horde, can we no longer expect Jaina to remain the honest peace broker that she has been thus far?

World of Wardrobe: Going out in Outland for tier 4

Heading back to pick up some awesome armor sets from vanilla WoW or that dazzling weapon that’ll have your enemies cowering in fear? Transmogrification makes it possible — and World of Wardrobe shows you how.

Now that we’ve finished our whirlwind tour of Medivh’s home and have two pieces of tier 4 in our pockets to show for it, it’s time to head to the main highlight of The Burning Crusade expansion and dig up the rest of it. While Karazhan existed on Azeroth, the rest of tier 4 exists in Outland, scattered between two smaller raids — the lairs of the pitlord Magtheridon and Gruul the Dragonkiller. Both raids were mercifully short when compared to the length of Karazhan, but both required some precision timing by raids to complete successfully.

Last week, we touched a little on attunement chains for The Burning Crusade. Long, arduous and a complete pain for those trying to get in on raiding late in the game, the attunement chains in Burning Crusade were systematically removed as the expansion went on. For those who jumped into raiding when The Burning Crusade was launched, however, both Gruul and Magtheridon were required kills to get to the next level of raiding content with the next tier of raiding gear.

The Queue: What am I going to do with all these Green Proto-Drakes?

Welcome back to The Queue, the daily Q&A column in which the WoW Insider team answers your questions about the World of Warcraft. Mathew McCurley will be your host today.

I am practically swimming in Green Proto-Drakes. I don’t even know what to do with them any more! Satchel of Exotic Mysteries, please give me mounts that I don’t already have. Worthless bags.

Tfish92 asked:

How is it fair that a hunter could switch from a gun to a bow because they like the way the bow looks but want the guns racial bonus but any other class that has a weapon type bonus can’t do the same? What if I want to keep my 2h sword for the bonus but I want to use an axe?

It’s the same concept and I don’t think one type should be the exception.

I see that you do not play a hunter. That statement is not meant to be mean or belittling in any way, but as the commenters have made note of, it is not about the look of the weapon per se but the sound each makes. Guns in WoW have a very audible sound that cannot be turned off without lowering the sound effects volume (which lowers all sound effects) or using an addon to suppress the gun firing noise. Guns are loud; bows are not. Each time you use an ability — boom. Each Auto-Shot — boom. It gets annoying quickly. That is why guns to bows and bows to guns is the exception to the rule.
