Welcome back to The Queue, WoW Insider’s daily Q&A column where the WoW Insider team answers your questions about the World of Warcraft. Alex Ziebart will be your host today. Good afternoon, everyone. I have a very important question for all of you. Recently, I purchased a Roomba. I’m not allowed to have pets where I live, so a little robot that makes chirping noises and cleans the house for me will have to do. There’s only one problem: We need to name it. My girlfriend and I each picked our preferred names. Help us decide, o readers! Name that Roomba! Oh right, and we have some of our usual Q&A after that, too. Name that Roomba! Hercules! Noms! Compromise: Nombercules!Vote yossarian asked… “Can Death Knights use Runeforging on BoA Heirloom weapons? I’d love to level my DK with an Arcanite Reaper lookalike, but it may not be worth giving up Runeforging. If not, are there plans to “fix” this so that Runeforge enchants don’t transfer along with the item?” You can’t currently use Runeforging on Heirloom

We’ve been covering quite a few different ways to see what players are up to in terms of talents after dual specs have been released (both 3D Armory and TalentChic have good information if you’re looking for it), and here’s another: Erorus at QuickArmory sent us some info on how to pull some talent demographics out of his site as well. He’s created a Talent stats page that needs a little explanation, but is actually full of great info on what kinds of builds players are choosing. First, choose a class at the top, and then you’ll be taken to a screen where you can see, in percentage points, the given percentage of players of that class who took those points on the tree. In other words, if you look at the Mage page, 62% (as of this writing) of Mages surveyed by the application took at least one point in Inceneration (and 61% took all the points), but only 1% of Mages put any points in Blazing Speed (probably because it sucks — oh snap!). You can also see the percentage points by spec (by clicking the tabs at the top) and even some general

Yes, as you may have noticed in the update on our post the other day, it’s confirmed: NetEase will be taking over operating the World of Warcraft in China as of June — their new homebase over there can be found at wow.163.com. And while we originally reported that The9 would be turning over their software, hardware, and staff to run the game, apparently that’s not completely true. IDG News Service is reporting that NetEase will be setting up their own network of servers to run the game. That’s a big undertaking — it likely means that things will be bumpy for the first few days of the transition (though Blizzard is clearly confident that NetEase can handle it, having run a few other games in the market before). And it also means that some of the supercomputers we’ve reported on before that are owned by The9 will go to… well, we’re not sure what. Not that there aren’t plenty of things to use them for — despite their stock dropping on news of the WoW license loss, The9 also runs a number of other games over there,

I think the in-game fixes should be ending soon, or at least not be noteworthy enough for the blues to announce every day. Last night there were only three announced, which we list after the break. But more interesting I think than the bankruptcy of Ghostly Philanthropists is the number of fixes announced each day, which is displayed in the nice graphic above. There is a spike of fixes on April 21st, which was this past Tuesday. That is likely due to two reasons. First, patch 3.1.1 was released and many of the changes had to be done via a client side patch and by some realm maintenance. Secondly, there were not any fixes released during the weekend of April 18th, so a few days of bug-e-ness went by. Just by looking at the graph you can tell there’s about an average of 13 or so fixes per day, and that number is steadily dropping. Hopefully this means that the bugs are going away too, and overall things are becoming more stable in-game. The announced changes after the break! Glyph of Overpower will now properly provide a 100% chance to enable Overpower after a

Welcome back to The Queue, WoW Insider’s daily Q&A column where the WoW Insider team answers your questions about the World of Warcraft. Alex Ziebart will be your host today. I was going to follow up Adam’s cute cat picture with a picture of my own pets, but since my landlord doesn’t let me have any, I figure you’re not interested in pictures of my roomba. It’s quite cute in person, but unfortunately it comes across as a bit lifeless in pictures. It’s a bit camera shy. jet242 asked… “I was wondering whats the best way to make money off of copious amounts of cloth, I have around 600 pieces of Frostweave sitting in the bank.” As was mentioned in the comments yesterday, watch the auction house very closely. Frostweave prices vary wildly because just one person skilling up Tailoring can bleed the market dry, and that’s when you can sell some of it off for inflated prices. Don’t flood the market with 600 pieces all at once, sell it a few stacks at a time. If you flood the market, you’re only hurting

Two Bosses Enter … but only One Boss Leaves, in WoW Insider’s series of fantasy death matches. This season’s bosses come from the five-man instances of Wrath of the Lich King. Gortok Palehoof and his posse ran roughshod over the Infinite Corruptor in this week’s Two Bosses Enter … One Boss Leaves. Readers relished the opportunity to run an entire group of NPCs through Old Stratholme to meet up with the Dragonspawn at the end. “Remember, it’s not just about which boss would win, it’s about the race to wow goldthe finish,” commented Samedji. “Gortok and friends … have to make it through eight waves of Undead, several waves of Dragonflight, some miscellaneous baddies down that last hallway and then the Corrupter himself. Don’t forget about Meathook, the Fleshcrafter, and the Infinite agent in town hall, as well.” “Even with all of these distractions, I think Gortok takes this home,” he continued. “The Rhino has some serious tanking and damage dealing abilities, on par with a DK. The worm

Patch days bring about major game changing news, and the WoW Insider crew is hard at work to bring you the very latest. As we gotten the news in we’ve been tweeting about it left and right, and we’ll continue to do this throughout the day. We’re also responding to as many questions via tweets as we can. And as a special treat for all you twittering people out there, we’ll be giving away some WoW TCG Loot Card codes (courtesy of our good friends at WoWTCGLoot.com) over the next week or so. But the only way for you to get them is to follow us on Twitter and wait for the sign. Of course, another good reason to follow us on twitter is that when we reach 9,000 followers, we’ll be doing a video version of our podcast, The WoW Insider Show. Ever wonder what Mike Schramm looks like while talking? Want to see if Turpster really is a gnome warrior? And do writers here at WoW Insider really grow horns and walk around with pitch forks chanting monotone devilries while sacrificing baby Murlocs to Ghostcrawler in exchange for new patch information?

The Colosseum takes us inside the world of the Gladiator (Brutal, Vengeful, Merciless, and otherwise), to interview some of the top Arena fighters in the battlegroups. Our goal is to bring a better understanding of the strategy, makeup, and work that goes into dueling it out for fame, fortune, and wow goldNetherdrakes. Season 5 is winding down to a close, even if we don’t know the official start date for Season 6. Patch 3.1 is somewhere around the corner, with Ulduar and class changes both lurking in the shadows like devilish rogues. If there’s one thing we can expect to be different between seasons, however, it’s that Holy Paladins are going to perform radically different from how they do now. In recognition of the Season of the Holy Pally (for better or for worse), we have one last interview with a wielder of light, a barista of bubble, a Shonuff of Shock! Helpless, from Twisting Nether, is rated highly in all three team formats. Check out what Helpless had to say about her tactics behind the cut. WoW Insider: Who are your teammates right now? What’s

Looking over this week’s WRUP responses, I had to wonder what was up. Where were the raid schedules? Where was the to-do list of achievements and dungeon runs? Why wasn’t anyone playing WoW? So I asked the team. Me: It looks like almost no one is playing WoW this weekend. Alex: Why would we? There’s nothing to do. Me: Good point. Alex: If 3.1 doesn’t hit on Tuesday it’s time to start throwing Blizzard employees out windows. One a day until the patch hits. Me: I wonder if it’s in poor taste to mention throwing Blizzard employees out windows in this week’s WRUP. Daniel: Maybe if you use the term “defenestrate” they won’t notice! As in “It’s time to start defenestrating Blizzard employees.” Me: I wonder if it’s in poor taste to use this entire conversation in this week’s WRUP… So what is the team doing this weekend? Adam Holisky: Transitioning to a new guild. Not sure which one yet, and I’ve been lucky enough to get positive hits from the ones I’ve applied to. All my friends

Now while the US forums have had this feature for a while, EU Blue Wryxian has posted that the EU forums have a little more order this afternoon. Rather than clumping the Horde and Alliance guild recruitment threads together, they now have separate areas to, as he puts it, ‘increase the usefulness and accessibility of the Guild Recruitment forums’. Despite his entreaties to the contrary, we’re sure it’s more to do with furthering the mutual dislike between factions. However that said, it will certainly save a lot of time and hassle. So if you’re Alliance and looking for a guild, take a look here while Hordies can go here.
