Fishing is one of the WoW’s secondary professions, together with cooking and first aid, which is considered as one of the most difficult to level up. It was no t until Burning Crusade expansion that fishing was even considered as useful. With the new cooking recipes that had a major impact on the improvement of your character in a RAID, fishing has become a very useful and valued profession. Wrath of the Lich King expansion in 2008 brought us also expansion in fishing. There are many new achievements when it comes to fishing and cooking, fun daily quests and plenty of new recipes which all contributed in making cooking and fishing more popular.

With successful completion of fishing achievements you are able to get a special fisherman’s title “Salty”, and the fun part is, there are not many players who have it. For this title one has to complete a series of fishing achievements, such as The Coin Master and Angler of Stranglethorn, which demands completing various fishing assignments and winning fishing contest held on Sundays in Booty Bay. You will also need to win on a Sunday’s Booty Bay fishing contest for the Master Angler of Stranglethorn achievement, do all of the five fishing daily quests found in Dalaran for the Chasing Marcia achievement, fish from different types of fish schools in Outland and Northrend, etc.

As you can see, fishing is very useful, and it can be quite profitable too. If you decide to level up fishing you don’t need to level up cooking as well, however, these two professions are a perfect match so an advice would be to level them both together.

How can I make money with fishing?

Well, the answer is simple - fish! There are many zones with very lucrative fish schools where you can fish. Only by selling your raw catch on the AH you may profit considerably. However, if you have cooking leveled up than the best thing would be to make food. There are many recipes for food that give stamina, spirit, spell power, attack power, agility, strength, haste, hit and crit buffs.

There is a special food for hunters’ pets and for the whole RAID - Fish Feast. The Fish Feast is made from three different types of fish and Northern Spices, which can be obtained by completing Dalaran cooking daily quests. The Fish Feast is useful because anyone in your group/raid can eat it and receive 80 attack power, 46 spell power and 40 stamina bonus on stats for 1 hour.

Fishing is a useful and nice profession to level up and when combined with cooking it can greatly boost anyone. However, anybody who ever tried or leveled fishing can tell you that leveling of this wonderful profession goes slower than with any other.

When it comes to fishing equipment, you need to have a fishing pool and lures which are used to increase your skill, and of course, a good fishing spot. Other than that, as in real life so in WoW, you will need a lot of patience. The process of fishing goes slow since you need to wait a few seconds for a fish to bite.

If you think it is going way too slow, don’t give up yet. Be patient until you leveled up your fishing up to certain skill level where you can start doing daily fishing quests. Your leveling will be much easier and more rewarding from that point on. For a comprehensive guide on all aspects of WoW check out the WoW Ultimate Guide

Modern Warfare 2 Could Have Had Aliens, Zombies

Absurd excesses aside, Modern Warfare 2 likes to keep thing pretty straight. Real men, real weapons, real countries. But during the game’s development cycle, Infinity Ward were open to things of a quirkier nature.

“In the beginning we talked about having things in Modern Warfare 2 like outbreaks, viruses, chemical warfare, and even outlandish things such as aliens and the living dead” says Jesse Stern, one of Modern Warfare 2’s writers.

“We worked our way through it before we finally ended up with a more grounded version of the real world as it’s depicted in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. And as we were kicking around scenarios for conflict, we kept stumbling into things that were happening in real life, which was honestly unintentional.”

The living dead? Where have we seen that before in a Call of Duty game…

The above quote was pulled from a longer interview over at GamePro. If you want to read more serious, thoughtful words from a man responsible for Russian paratroopers in a burger store in Virginia, hit the link below.

Baldur’s Gate was released in 1998 and set the standard for single-player team-based role-playing games. Four years later (give or take a couple of months), BioWare released Neverwinter Nights – a game that picked up the flag that Baldur’s Gate had set as the benchmark and moved it forward. In 2007 The Witcher entered the RPG scene and gave the genre a more-adult feel, but that was very much a solo-character effort. When it comes to the concept of the team format, of tactical combat, nothing has really moved the genre forward … until now.

Dragon Age: Origins does not merely move that flag forward a few feet, it scales the mountain of RPGs, raises a new banner, a new high bar, and then challenges the genre to play catch-up. It is a lofty achievement, full of twists in the plot, building on a dynamic rarely seen in gaming at all, and telling a story that is amazing in its scope.

The story begins 400 years prior to the events depicted. A group of mages, intent on expanding their base of power tried to breach the gates to heaven, where the Maker resided, to tap that power base. They were repulsed and cast back down to the lands of Ferelden, becoming twisted and malformed in the process, and finally became known as the arch-demons. In their wrath and rage, they cast a Blight upon the land, dredging up creatures created and twisted by dark magic, known as the darkspawn. The army of foulness swarmed across the lands of elves, dwarves and men. As the victory of the darkspawn seemed at hand, a new force made its presence known – the Grey Wardens. These warriors, selected and trained from the ranks of all of the peoples of Ferelden, turned the tide of the war and defeated the darkspawn.
