Ice Blog: August 2012
http://wow-iceblog.blogspot.com/2012_08_01_archive.html
Sunday, August 26, 2012. Remembering the Old Frost. On Tuesday, Frost will no longer be the same. With the release of 5.0.4, every spec will be changing. Some will be getting minimal changes, while others will be completely revamped; Frost Mage is one such spec. Now, it's going to be very cut-and-dry: Single-Target? Your priority is Frostfire Bolt, then Ice Lance. AoE/Cleave? Your priority is Ice Lance, then Frostfire Bolt. Any reason to hold onto procs? Spreading Ignite with Impact? Old Frost, I'm ambiv...

Ice Blog: Brief* Frost Mage strats: Dragon Soul bosses 1-4
http://wow-iceblog.blogspot.com/2012/01/brief-frost-mage-strats-dragon-soul.html
Wednesday, January 11, 2012. Brief* Frost Mage strats: Dragon Soul bosses 1-4. I would really like to do some detailed guides; however, the normal mode Dragon Soul fights have been disappointingly easy so far. Thus, I'll write some short rundowns. The Hagara rundown is not especially brief; whoops. 1 If you jumped behind two stalagmites, you can position yourself between the two and fire at him from there, or. After this phase is over, stack in again, rinse and repeat. As a Frost Mage. I don't believe yo...

Ice Blog: September 2011

Tuesday, September 27, 2011. Tier 13 set bonus for Frost. EDIT: Links now fixed because my guildmate, Corv. Is a genius. P.S: Get a blog, Corv. I'm going to assume - however dangerously - that anyone into WoW enough to read a blog about it has also been keeping current with WoW-related news. Specifically, the Tier 13 set bonuses. Your damaging spells have a 30% chance to grant Stolen Time, increasing your haste rating by 50 for 30 sec and stacking up to 10 times. When Arcane Power. Like, really, really b...

Ice Blog: December 2011
http://wow-iceblog.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Saturday, December 17, 2011. MoP feedback post, part 2. I'm a bit late on this one, but I did write up a feedback post for the second revision of the talent calculator for Mists of Pandaria. This one still deals mostly with Frost, but I did give some opinion on the actual talent tree this time, as well. This one is generating a (very small) amount of discussion, so it looks like I'm finally getting the ball rolling! You can find the post here: http:/ us.battle.net/wow/en/forum/topic/3764466623.

Ice Blog: November 2011
http://wow-iceblog.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
Thursday, November 24, 2011. Mists of Pandaria feedback post. Blizzard recently released their early version of the talent calculator for 5.0, as well as projected spell trees for each class and spec. Their intended purpose is to get feedback and make changes accordingly. Since I'm like, the only Frost Mage on Earth, I felt the need to make a feedback post on Frost myself, after looking at the new changes. Looking at the new spec abilities and talent trees, it appears that I was either wrong about this b...

Ice Blog: Ice Blog is over...for now.
http://wow-iceblog.blogspot.com/2012/04/ice-blog-is-overfor-now.html
Sunday, April 22, 2012. Ice Blog is over.for now. I didn't really want to admit it for a while; but, when my guild got into Heroic modes, I had a feeling it would happen. I'm no longer playing Frost. But, as it happens, it wasn't because I needed to play Fire or Arcane to stay competitive; in actuality, my Frost DPS was just fine. Actually, it was because we needed a healer. What I'm wondering is, what does this mean for Ice Blog? I guess only time will tell. Frost is looking to change dramatically. ...
