Every week, WoW Insider brings you Arcane Brilliance for arcane, fire and frost mages. This week, we dispel mage-related myths, expose wizardly untruth, and separate magical fact from fiction … just like the Mythbusters, only with more Fireballs.

Oh hai thar! As the master of infiltration, I think everyone saw this post coming. By this point in time, is there a single column that I haven’t managed to take over? I really don’t understand why people resist it, I should just be the writer for WoW Insider. The rest of the staff is pretty much superfluous at this point. Well, maybe we can keep them around as interns to fetch me coffee and deal with trolls.

I swear, though, this isn’t my warlock side that’s taken over. No, no, we’re a bit more sensible than that here, the editors would never let a warlock write the mage column. Instead, it’s the balance druid part of me that joins you today, spewing out your mystical tid-bits. Honest, they made me swear an oath and everything. What they didn’t count on is that my balance side is rather bitter towards mages and their Focus Magic swapping; warlocks are awesome enough to give me Dark Intent. Also, mages kind of blew up the Well of Eternity thing and that’s not cool.

Let’s begin today’s lesson, class!

A moonkin’s attempt at bitter comedy ahead!Continue reading Arcane Brilliance: Magery within the FirelandsArcane Brilliance: Magery within the Firelands originally appeared on WoW Insider on Sat, 23 Jul 2011 21:00:00 EST.
