World of Warcraft Tooltips

By Xeross Posted in Gaming, How-To's, Tech, World of Warcraft Leave a Comment

Since I’ve started playing WoW again and also have also been blogging about it I added World of Warcraft Tooltips (Quests, Items, NPCs, Etc.) to my blog, there isn’t any WordPress pluging at the moment that does this (Atleast not on wordpress.org) but it’s actually pretty easy.

All you need to do is add the following html code to the section of your wordpress template.

<script src="http://static.wowhead.com/widgets/power.js"></script>

And after that any links to Items, Quests, Etc. on WoWHead will automatically have a tooltip when you hover over them.

Example: ‘Tis the Season

If you have any questions don’t hesitate to ask them.

Back Into WoW, Winter Veil

By Xeross Posted in Gaming, World of Warcraft Leave a Comment

Even though Winter Veil started at the 15th I just recently logged in to play again, I had a dream last night that made me reactivate my subscription and so far I’ve been enjoying it a lot.

Since I’ve played Borderlands I somehow pay more attention to detail in both Graphics and Sound, maybe just because I’m also planning on reviewing games and also because well I like pretty graphics. If you’d look at WoW you’d say that the graphics are dated and ugly, but when soaring through the skies of azeroth (with my UI hidden) it just looks incredibly good, next to that is the music that I’ve finally enabled just sounds great. Wings flapping, hooves running just wonderful.

Now back to The Feast of Winter Veil. I’ve begun completing the quests around this event and so far I’ve rescued Metzen the Reindeer and I’ve read the story of “The Feast of Winterveil“, I tried delivering it Cairne Bloodhoof but he was nowhere to be found. I’ll be continuing my journey through Azeroth and the current festivities and might report back at a later time.
