Accessory Update

Last week we got our first look at the new accessory sets coming to Warhammer Online in 1.4.3.  These new items were introduced to provide players more options, instead of just replacing the Tomb of the Vulture Lord set.  This week, a small...

New Tactic for Ranged DPS

Late last week, Mythic announced a career change affecting Engineers, Shadow Warriors and Squig Herders.  Basically, one of the lesser used tactics would be dropped in favor of a new one meant to improve their physical damage.  This has long...

Aspect of Fire

In the upcoming Sigmartide scenario, the College of Corruption, you can take on the form of an Aspect of Fire.  When in this form, you gain access to several new skills to use against your enemy.  Are they worth losing your class skills?  It...

College of Corruption Feedback

During last weeks PTS testing, we got a chance to checkout the new scenario, the College of Corruption.  Personally, I enjoyed it quite a bit.  The setting was nice and the Aspects of Fire were fun. As is customary, Mythic opened up a feedback...

Yesterday during the PTS event, we got our first look at the new scenario: the College of Corruption.  I played a  few instances of it and took some video.  Mythic experimented with the amount of people playing from test to test, which...

1,000

This is post number 1,000 for Werit's Blog. It also turned 3 years old a few days ago, which I completely forgot about.  It's hard to believe that three years have gone by so quickly.  In June 2008 I started up this site to talk about Warhammer...

TOR Tatooine Video and a Jawa

Like many others this week, I have been devouring all of the Star Wars: The Old Republic that I can.  Ultimately, I came away disappointed since they still did not give us a release date.  They have restated that the target is still 2011.  I...

The Problem with 6 vs 6

One of the most requested addition to Warhammer Online is a permanent 6 vs 6 scenario.  So far, we have only had these party vs party scenarios during special events.  I can certainly understand why players would want one permanently,...

1.4.3 Scenario Lineup

With the upcoming 1.4.3 patch, the scenario lineup will be changed.  And not a moment too soon as I have just about had it with all of the Gromil Crossing/Thunder Valley pops.  The new lineup is looking pretty good to me, continue on for the...

Q&A with Space Pirates and Zombies Developer

Yesterday I posted a look at the new game, Space Pirates and Zombies.  The developers of the game were kind enough to answer some questions.  If you like space games in the same vein as Starflight and Star Control 2, you should definitely check...

Space Pirates and Zombies

With a title like Space Pirates and Zombies, how can you go wrong?  SPAZ (nice abbreviation) is a new Indy game which I have been enjoying quite a bit lately.  If I were to relate it to previous games: Starflight, Escape Velocity and Star Control...

Arsenal Idea

Yesterday, I was talking to some folks about 6 vs 6 scenarios and the reasons behind the demand for a permanent one.  There are a number of reasons, but one is for the competitive aspect of my team versus your team.  Sadly, there...

Play as Monster

When Warhammer Online's 1.4 patch launched, one of its new features was being able to play as a Skaven class.  These were not traditional classes, as they had no progression and only a limited set of skills.  Players assumed the role of a Skaven...
