WoW.com's Weekly Comic: Byron, the Tauren Rogue!

by Kelly Aarons Feb 9th 2010 at 1:00PM

Welcome to another edition of the WoW.com Weekly Comic -- Byron the Tauren Rogue!

From the deepest depths of a child's mind, we have Byron's first invention - the Cookie-Getting Bird. He knows that there would probably be more gears and stuff, but those are really hard to draw...or so he says.

Welcome to another edition of the WoW.com Weekly Comic -- Byron the Tauren Rogue!

Geez Louise, that seems like an awful lot of effort for just some cookies, don't you think?

On the other hand, when you're young, a few copper must feel like a fortune, so there is some understanding in the undertaking of these kids.

Next week, we're going to show you some of Byron's earliest blueprints, and the world will witness the birth of an engineer.

Welcome to another edition of the WoW.com Weekly Comic -- Byron the Tauren Rogue!

Now, we're going to be doing something a little different for the next two or so weeks...you see, the WoW.com staff and I managed to get our hands on none other than Byron's diary. Because we like the little guy, we're going to do the right thing and broadcast it to the world.
What, you thought we'd give it back? Where's the fun in that?

(Author's Note: In truth, I actually had surgery on my drawing hand/wrist on Friday, and am gimped and unable to draw. The regular comic will continue after I get this blasted cast off. Therefore, everything here has been drawn with my right hand [I'm left-handed.] Thanks for understanding!)

WoW.com's Weekly Comic: Byron, the Tauren Rogue!

by Kelly Aarons Jan 26th 2010 at 11:00AM

Welcome to another edition of the WoW.com Weekly Comic -- Byron the Tauren Rogue!

On what could only be described as sheer dumb luck, Byron has made it to the outskirts of Stormwind. All he has to do is make a quick detour to fill his bovine tummy. That shouldn't be so hard, right?

I'm also sure you've all noticed the shift in colour, or lack thereof! Time constraints have mandated that I do these in black and white. I've worked hard to make these nice and detailed, so while I know it doesn't make up fully for the lack of colour, but I hope it's somewhat enjoyable!

It's a trap! Traps are back in Icecrown Citadel

by Matt Low Jan 24th 2010 at 8:00PM

By now, those of you that have slowly progressed throughout the initial part of Icecrown have witnessed (or at least triggered) various traps. Some traps seem to show up after your group has cleared out a room or killed certain mobs or met some other condition like the ones before Lord Marrowgar.

But wait, there are more of them!

Dinaer at Forever a Noob demonstrates that there are more traps as you progress through the levels of Icecrown Citadel.

Spirit alarm: Trip these to bring in the big skeletons. Great for reputation. There are four of these in the two chambers leading up to Lord Marrowgar.
Mist trap: Not exactly a trap per se, but it can catch the unwitting raider off guard if they run into it. Either have a rogue disable it on the side, or activate the teleporter on the other side and beam in. You'll run into it after you've downed the Deathbringer and zone in behind him.
Geist trap: You'll find these littered in the hallways of the Plagueworks. Have a tank behind the raid to intercept them as they appear.

I wonder what other traps we'll see in the remaining parts of Icecrown. I can't remember the last instance that had traps on the scale of Icecrown.

Welcome to another edition of the WoW.com Weekly Comic -- Byron the Tauren Rogue!

Looks like the baddest of the bad has come in to track down her prey. She's lean, she's mean, and she sure doesn't like cows!
Also, a little note from the artist - starting next week, the Byron comics will be in a black and white/grayscale setting. Yes, I know, not having color isn't cool, but I sadly have time constraints to think about. I just want to make sure I put out a quality product for you guys. Thanks for understanding!

Blood Sport: Beginner's guide to arena, part III

by C. Christian Moore Dec 21st 2009 at 2:00PM

Want to crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and hear the lamentation of their women? Blood Sport investigates the entirety of all-things arena for gladiators and challengers alike. C. Christian Moore, multiple rank 1 gladiator, examines the latest arena strategy, trends, compositions and more in WoW.com's arena column.

Listening Music: Modeselektor's Tetrispack. Allison Robert offered a challenge to our most beloved columnist last week. Ms. Roberts has chosen a clever and palatable piece with Richard Shindell's On-A-Sea-Of-Fleur-De-Lis. And now we come to my retaliation. My wife recommended our musical selection today -- it just happened to be on the absolute opposite end of the spectrum. How fitting. We love this song, albeit mostly for the intro. Upon your first listen, if you correctly predict the timing and type of shift in the first thirty seconds, serious e-props to you.

To wit, Robert: pan flute > no pan flute. Your move.

Last Week: part two of our beginner's arena guide. We featured the cute ukulele kid who pretty much controls the internet right now. After that, we discussed frequently asked questions from new arena players. We talked about how to spec and what team composition to choose, with two different types of answers (easy and long).

Today, we'll be talking some very basic class strategy. If you know your class inside and out, you'll know what I'm going to say when it comes to your class and arena. You can still learn about other classes here. I've written over 2500 words about individual class perspective inside arenas, that's a lot. Full article after the break.

Welcome to another edition of the WoW.com Weekly Comic -- Byron the Tauren Rogue!

Gruuka has slapped Byron with the proverbial glove...a challenge has been issued! How much does Byron value his pride? Or how much does he value not having three expert rogues beat him up for being a wimp? Read on to find out!

Also -- someone made a comment last week that the 'extra inking' (the filled-in black parts) looked 'pixelated.' Honestly, I agree with them. I fixed it up a bit using another program, so I hope it looks better!
