http://www.blogcdn.com/www.wowinsider.com/media/2008/12/retdk.jpgEvery Wednesday, Chase Christian (http://www.wowinsider.com/bloggers/chase-christian/) of Encrypted Text (http://www.wowinsider.com/category/encrypted-text/) invites you to enter the world of shadows, as we explore the secrets and mechanics of the Rogue class. This week, we discuss the new Arena Season 5.
Like many of my siblings of the shadows, I play WoW in both the PvP and PvE environments. As a guild leader, it is my responsibility to organize raid groups and to lead my team to victory (and the associated purple loot (http://www.wowhead.com/?items&filter=cr=131:105;crs=1:3456;crv=0:0)). While keeping up Hunger for Blood (http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=51662) & Slice and Dice (http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=6774) & Rupture (http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=48672) up may seem interesting for others; after a while the raid DPS grind wears away at my soul. I was not born to be a number-crunching math machine (http://www.wowinsider.com/2008/10/22/encrypted-text-the-fuzzy-math-of-theorycrafting/). I am a Horde assassin at heart: born to taste the blood of my Warchief's enemies!
I have been flexing my PvP muscles in the new Lake Wintergrasp (http://www.wowinsider.com/search/?q=lake+wintergrasp&invocationType=wl-wow&searchsubmit=) and Strand of the Ancient (http://www.wowinsider.com/search/?q=strand+of+the+ancients&invocationType=wl-wow&searchsubmit=)s battlegrounds, though I find myself sitting in a turret or catapult fairly often. The arena has always been my true love. It was what brought me back to WoW for TBC, and it is what tempted me to level in Northrend for the next installment. With Season 5 now officially underway (http://www.wowinsider.com/2008/12/16/season-5-faq/), my week has consisted of the most bloodthirsty battles I have ever been a part of. So go buy your Hateful Gladiator's Band of Triumph (http://www.wowhead.com/?item=42112) (best initial upgrade with no rating requirement) and read on!Continue reading Encryped Text: One Rogue's take on Season 5 (http://www.wowinsider.com/2008/12/24/encryped-text-one-rogues-take-on-season-5/)
