Please join me in congratulating Euripides on being selected as the new Auction House columnist for wow.com! I look forward to him helping me get rich in WoW.
Of course he could save himself a lot time and effort by just e-mailing me a bunch of his gold (Daddy Dark needs a new pair of shoes) 
.
Congratulations!
For if he did, he’d surely have a shotgun stowed somewhere in that giant citadel of his. Loot from the Lich King can now be found on the Armory and on sites such as Wowhead.com.
Despite that fact that there is not gun in ICC (25), the Lich King does have some nice things for us. Once again the crossbow and the polearm are king.

It’s weird, ICC (10) has a bow, gun and crossbow. Odd that ICC (25) should not. Too bad Arthas and Jaina didn’t have a little more time together.
Good Hunting!
Here it is our 20th episode. This week Frostheim and I talk about Twitter Dev chat, the new Scattered Shots columnist at wow.com (hint: it’s Frost), and we discuss going with 2T9 and 2T10 versus 4T10. We also answer more of your great e-mail.
Euripides was out this week, but will be back for episode 21.

Today I wanted to cover three enchants that you may want to consider as part of your raiding set. These are Cat’s Swiftness, Tuskarr’s Vitality and the Biznicks 247×128 Accurascope.
The first two come at the expense of some DPS enchants, and the last one is so old school it may be hard to get, but they’re all worth a look. Read the rest of this entry »
Just a quick update to let you know that the Hunting Party Podcast now has it’s own site - http://www.huntingpartypodcast.com/.
The only content on the site are links to past episodes, however, when we start doing live shows this is the place you’ll want to go. Additional content such as Hunter articles, guest bloggers and such is a possibility.
Thanks for listening!

Last night our raid team attempted Festergut (25). Nine attempts in all, and at the end of the night he was still standing. It wasn’t a total waste of effort and we did reach the point where it was the enrage timer that was killing us. Two attempts had him at 7% and 6%. Read the rest of this entry »
I’m tired and grumpy today. One of the perils of being in a 25-man progression guild is that there is little or no time to run ICC (10). When there is an ICC (10) run it’s usually a late-night affair starting after 11pm server time, and ending at an hour that a working professional many years out of college has no business being awake.
Currently we raid 25-man ICC four nights a week. We’re not good enough to just plow through the place in two nights, so until we get our rears in gear we’re committed to four nights.
Now I know what you’re thinking, they’re seven days in the week so that should leave three nights free for ICC (10). Well contrary to popular belief I do need to go outside occasionally and interact with other carbon based lifeforms. The three non-raid nights don’t lend themselves to raiding.
I’m mentally preparing myself for ditching ICC (10) or getting by with massive sleep deprivvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv

It seems as if it was ages ago that we recorded this, although I’m pretty sure it was 2010.
Anyway, Euripides, Frostheim and I talk about the “crit cap”, the hunter song, and we answer a big bunch of your e-mail questions. We love getting these so keep ‘em coming!

Another raid week is in books (man these go by quick) so here is my weekly round-up of events and happenings in my little pond. Read the rest of this entry »
Okay, I recently discovered that you don’t have to form a raid group and enter the Icecrown Citadel raid instance to purchase your T10 gear. There’s a cute little dwarf in Dalaran who will be happy to take your emblems and tokens and hand you your T10.
Matilda Brightlink is a mail armor merchant and she can be found in the armor shop between the fishing fountain and the South Bank in Dalaran. This is the same shop where we purchased our other tier gear. Why the same dwarf, who we’ve been going to this whole expansion, couldn’t sell the T10 is beyond me, but there you go.
Have a great weekend folks!
