I put off writing this just in case I got the chance to throw more questions in the direction of Mike, Elizabeth and Amanda before the end of the tournament but unfortuantly, I did not.

Some interesting questions were asked at this live chat and some very interesting answers were given. Some of the answers confused me. Some of them annoyed me. All in all it was a good night.

Question: [TTHS]Prophet: How likely do you think it is that Blizzard will announce Diablo 3 at Blizzcon this year or do you think D3 is a pipe dream...at least for the near future?

My Persoanly opinion here was that a Diablo 3 announcement was inevitable at Blizzcon. All of the hype that was being created by Blizzard seemed to point to it. The posting of a Diablo movie on the Legendary site, the new Diablo artwork all over the Blizzard website seemed to hint at the new game.
Mike disagreed with me and it appears he was right. He made the point that Blizzcon was a celebration of all three franchises and that the Diablo artwork was to be expected. He didn't think Starcraft 2, Expansion 2 AND Diablo 3 at the same, two day event, was plausible and he was right.
This years Blizzcon saw no Diablo 3 and yet more disappointement in the D3 community, who seem to have taken the lack of announcement harder than they have before with many expressing a lack of confidence in Blizzard.

Question: [TTHS]Prophet: There have been rumours that they are adding a class called Death Knights, among others but I want to know if you think they are adding prestige classes...bolt ons if you wish...or brand spanking new classes?

This question was more for my own curiosity than the actual information. It was well known by this point that Blizzard are adding a class (or classes?) that are unlockable when players reach level 80 in the new expansion. The dynamics of the Death Knight are widly unknown however with only the concept os a rune sword, Death Knights answer to mana/rage/energy, being revealed. Needless to say I feel that if Blizzard add one her class and...

I've noticed a few people checking the WoW PvP Video idea and whilst it is almost done I have run into a few problems that are going to take a while resolving

Firstly, My Internet connection has been ravaged by my Dog. He decided he would take offence tto my phone line and chewed through it so for the next couple of days I have no internet connection.

Secondly, I have lost several parts of the end video and I don't know how or where they have gone so for the next few days, I am going to be refrapsing and re-re-re-editing them together...once I have my internet connection.

I am still doing it but god knows when it will be finished

It has been done by both the great and the not so great. Since WoWs inception and PvPs addition, players have been showing off their skills through the medium of fraps. Players have cheated, acted, lied, stole, cried, laughed and even lost a few times in these videos and they still go on...like yoyos...or pokemon cards...god knows why but they go on inspite of my efforts ;o

So there is little else for me to do other than give in. At this point in time, I care not for my image to other WoW players. I am not famous and I am not well known. I need to get my name out there somehow, don't I?

In the next coming week or so, I shll be making a PvP Video like none before it. I shall demonstrate the true power of a shadowpriest and I shall prove once and for all that...I OWN J00!!!

Watch This Space!

Well what a night. Yes, night, I live in GMT. I expected a simple Q+A with a load of spammers and trouble makers only to find that some fairly good points were being made.

Firstly, in the open floor, I managed to get my views on the supposed "tank crisis" out in the open. Those views being that there is no tank crisis. Tanks are in the plenty at this point in time and the problems we had with tanks while leveling from 60-70 are over. What we are dealing with at the moment is a lack of priests. I suggested that we address the lack of priests and healers in general before we address tank problems (which are none-existent).

Next, we had the, "Warriors in T4 can't tank heroic because they can't generate rage, " and while I admit that this is a slight annoyance to the tanks, I didn't ive any ground on this. That tank chose to take a different approach to end game, choosing the tiered raids over heroic and PvP so, much like PvP players have to live with no PvE, they should live with the lack of heroic. My point was not well recieved

The night finished on a laughable note, with ming popping into the open floor to tell us all that Druids are the hardest class to play at PvP. Just for the record, they are not. A feral druid is not hard to play as they have enough survivability to make 20-30 mistakes and still come out on top. Let's not go into boomkins. Needless to say, Ming made some fairly outrageous points tonight but he did make some fairly good ones as well.

There was also an interesting debate about 5v5 arena teams with 4 dps classes in and I made a point of saying that 4 dps structures are risky at best but do have their benefits. I shall stick with my 2 heal, 1 passive heal and 2 dps structure though lol It was agreed that Warlock/paladin 2v2 teams are the best 2v2 combination and that warrior/paladin teams are also fairly good.

Lastly, my points about shadwopriests seemed to go un-noticed by both floors who seem intent on singing Warlocks praises and then asking for a nerf....
