Larisa, over at pink pigtail inn, observed that a flood of epics doesn’t make up for lack of content.
You know what would make up for lack of content? More content.

So one of the bosses in the Argent Tournament Colosseum will be the Argent Confessor who requires you to relive “memories” of past battles, allowing players to fight souped-up level-80 versions of Onyxia, Illidian Stormrage and of course Hogger.
The reaction to this news is split perfectly between two different sorts of moron.

Just to fill y’all in on a bit of background, Temitope – the eponymous deathtard and my only 80 – is actually my sixth or seventh alt (after an undead Warlock, a Troll priest, a belfadin, an Orc shaman, a belvish bank-alt, and a Drenai warrior (my only other Alliance character).
