Around Azeroth: Cherubs?

Moonsoul of Jubei'Thos offers this shot taken from the Karazhan Opera House. Though I, personally, usually spend my time in Karazhan staring at health bars, sometimes it pays to have a look around and enjoy the scenery. Otherwise, we might all have missed this unique work of Azerothian art. (For those of you checking this out full-screen, is it just me, or do those charming cherubs have horns?)

Do you have any unusual World of Warcraft images that are just collecting dust in your screenshots folder? Because we'd love to see your idea of the best looking instance on Around Azeroth! Sharing your screenshot is as simple as e-mailing aroundazeroth@wowinsider.com with a copy of your shot and a brief explanation of the scene. You could be featured here next!

New Arena Calculator and browser plugins at the Armory

Posted Sep 26th 2007 3:00AM by Robin Torres
Filed under: Blizzard, News items, PvP, AddOns

Blizzard has added two new updates to the WoW Armory. One of them is the Search Engine plugin we talked about earlier, though it isn't just for Firefox -- it also includes IE 7 and Opera. They have a very simple installation for adding the Armory search plugin to your browser.

They have also added an Arena calculator which is actually three calculators in one. Choose one of the calculators to determine:

  • The number of arena points earned in a week
  • The average rating to get a desired arena reward
  • How long it will take to get that reward

If you have pinned your profile, the calculator will automatically fill up with your current arena statistics, as long as you aren't using the Opera or Safari browsers.

The Arena Calculator seems to be a good way to get the Season 2 gear before the Season 3 starts with its new rating restrictions for gear.

Do you think the new Armory updates are useful?
