I don’t know why but I am amused by the established fact that Allosaurus specimens have a marked tendency to display paleopathologies that indicate that even among Theropods, they were willing to take risks. We find broken ribs, punctured tail vertebra, and a variety of wounds from Stegosaurus thagomizers. Including a thagomizer blow to the public bone of a particularly… let’s just say reckless… Allosaurus.

I like to imagine Allosaurus as a genus of Johnny Knoxvilles. Daring each other to attack a Brontosaurus or a Stegosaurus and getting their faces smashed so hard they spend the rest of their lives with crooked jaws, bone spurs, stubbed tails and yes, spike punctures to their pubic bones. The Tazmanian Devils of the Jurassic.

Ay-oh!

Anduin Wrynn's kingship — and distinct lack thereof — is the first topic this week on the Lore Watch Podcast.

As we slither our way across the Coiled Isle and into the depths of the Vaults of Atal'Utek, we'll be working closely with Midnight's latest faction: Zul'jarra's Forces.

The Venomous Abyss Race to World First is in full swing in World of Warcraft!

The entrance to the Venomous Abyss raid in World of Warcraft patch 12.1 is a pain in the butt to find, living up to the grand old tradition of indoor raids past such as Uldir and Nighthold.

We’re at that point of summer where I am so thoroughly over it. I cannot stand eating another zucchini and I’m so sick of being sweaty all the time. It’s made even worse because all the pumpkin spice nonsense is rolling out because everyone north of me is starting to feel that crisp breeze in the air, but if I want to feel that anytime in the next month I need to stand over the AC grate wearing a dress (which doesn’t have pockets, because we’re adding insult to injury). Time does and will march on, but for now I’m truly over it.

This is The Queue, our daily column where you ask us the questions and we’ll give you some kind of answers as long as I can do it lying down with the lights off. Ugh.

World of Warcraft's newest round of Trading Post rewards in September are styled to celebrate all of the friends we've made along the way, heralding BlizzCon's return on September 12-13 2026.

Today's World of Warcraft maintenance isn't too bad: Midnight realms have two hours of downtime scheduled, while all Classic realms only have the standard hour of downtime scheduled.

We've arrived on the Coiled Isle, explored with our Pants of Poison Resistance on, and are ready to dive into the Venomous Abyss raid -- but who exactly will we be fighting in Midnight's newest raid, and why?
