10 Reasons to Play World of Warcraft Wrath of the Lich King

When it comes to massive multiplayer online games (MMOG), nothing tops the list better than World of Warcraft. Since the game’s inception in 2005, millions upon millions of gaming fanatics have immersed themselves in the awesome fantasy worlds that only the brains behind Blizzard Entertainment can bring. More than 60 percent of the world’s MMOG market is hooked on WoW! As if that wasn’t enough, 2007 marked the release of the first expansion set to WoW, which is The Burning Crusade, making it possible for fans to reach even greater heights in terms of virtual adventure and enjoyment. However, if you have been living under a rock, you probably have missed the launch of the second expansion set – Wrath of the Lich King - in November 2008.

If you still aren’t familiar with the updates and additions to this expansion pack, then here are ten reasons why you should dive into WoW Wrath of the Lich King. Read on to learn why this has made the world’s hottest MMOG sensation even hotter!

1. This expansion pack is a certified record breaking best seller. According to sources, when the product was released in the US in November 13, 2008, more than 2.8 million copies were purchased in as little as 24 hours! Talk about selling like hotcakes.

2. Go where no other WoW player has gone before. Wrath of the Lich King is set in a whole new continent in Azeroth, known as Northrend. Northrend is also the realm of the star of the show, the Lich King. Players from all levels can travel to and explore Northrend, but certain features and content can only be accessed from level 68 and above.

3. A new character class – Hero. In Wrath of the Lich King, the very first hero class that players can develop is the Death Knight, while subsequent hero classes may be expected in other expansion sets in the future. Players who achieve level 55 can access the Death Knight hero class.

4. Wrath of the Lich King increases the level cap. While in The Burning Crusade, the level cap is 70, in the second expansion set, this has been increased to 80. Along the way, you can find more effective means of increasing your power and your abilities. If you have been an avid player, or if you are using a leveling guide, then reaching this won’t be a problem!

5. Game play graphics are out of this world! In Wrath of the Lich King, Blizzard Entertainment innovatively used a new shader, making ice regions more realistic, and offering a different dimension to shadows and fire effects.

6. Take Player versus Player (PVP) to a whole new level with Wrath of the Lich King. In the second expansion pack, expect to see two new arenas where you can battle it out with your teams. These are: the Dalaran Arena and the Orgrimmar Arena, where you can expect to find moving objects and other obstacles.

7. Check out Lake Wintergrasp for more PvP action. This is the dedicated PvP zone that has been added to Wrath of the Lich King, and it is located in the central region of Northrend. In addition to that, there are now destructible buildings featured in the game, as well as new siege weapons you surely wouldn’t want to miss.

8. Wrath of the Lich King features a new profession you might want to try. This is called Inscription, which makes it possible for characters to create and enhance their spells, and at the same time, buy, trade, or sell such spell enhancements. This profession can be leveled up to 450 skill points, which is significantly better than The Burning Crusade’s skill cap.

9. Newer stuff to encounter in Northrend. With this expansion pack, you are introduced to a list of new gems found only on this continent. Also, be prepared to meet more monsters, as Wrath of the Lich King has dozens more added to WoW’s extensive bestiary.

10. More character customization options. You can alter the body size and shape of your characters, as well as edit the facial features or change the gender from male to female. Furthermore, there are barber shops which allow characters to change hair styles. There is also a dance studio to customize even better dance moves for WoW characters.

Its good if your a priest and you can /who and mind vision, but you can ask “Where are you” or “Meet at Auction house” or Invite to group. Just NEVER accept to pay them 450g.5.) Open trade window, put the 450g on your side of the screen, make sure they see it.6.) As soon as they put the item down, take a 0 off your 450g and accept trade. So you actually pay 45g for the 450g item . Resell for 300g and have fun with your huge profits.
