Greets all of you WoW-oholics! SjN here with another dose of WoW goodness!
In case you haven't seen it yet, I just HAD to chime in about the new Blizzard App for the iPhone! I had read about it yesterday and decided to head out to the App Store, grab it, and take it for a test spin.
First off - IT'S FREE! Yes folks, Blizz threw us a bone. It's called the World of Warcraft Mobile Armory. As it's name implies, it's basically the Armory for your iPhone. The good news however is it doesn't stop there. Oh no. It does SO MUCH MORE!
This screenie here is your front page. Your door step into the magical world of Azeroth. As you can see you not only get your character screen but you get PvP Leader boards, your in-game Calendar right at your fingertips, talent calculators and so much more!
I love being on the go and able to pull up my Calendar to see the latest goings on with my guild. It truly makes WoW mobile! To be able to hang out with my buddies and talk WoW (which we do A LOT) then whip out this bad boy to show off my spiffy characters is just the coolest thing EVAR!
Blizzard added some very nice touches to the application as well. For example, you turn pages much as you would a book. There is a nice animation of a page flipping when you run your finger across the screens accompanied by a cool sound of a page turning. I giggled like a little school boy! The Character Profile gives you everything it's daddy does. You can even detail your gear to get more information on certain items you may have equipped.
Really slick.
Tapping on the CHARACTER PROFILE drops down a window that allows you to select Talents, Glyphs, Achievements, Arena Teams, your Calendar and your Guild data! Everyone in your guild pops up and you can then drill down into them as well!
I'm really impressed with the sound Blizz put together with this app. When you tap the trinkets to detail them, they have that familiar "ding!" that you get when you drop a trinket into a slot. Nice touch.
Over on the Talent Calculator, you can pull up your talents (both primary and secondary if you have dual class. It also lets you play around with other specs which is really cool as sometimes I get a bit anal on specs and properly assigning them so I have fun dinking around with different specs while in board meetings ;-)
It's also cool to looks at others specs too see what the hell is making them DPS so damn much (Naminee, I got my eye on you!)
There's just so much you can do with this nifty little app that it's hard to cover it all! If you have an iPhone and WoW is something that consumes any and all of your free time, it won't be complete without this little slice of heaven!
As you can see, there's some TOTALLY cool stuff going on here! Kudos to
Blizzard for the kick ass iPhone App! I was only able to find ONE
problem with it however. You need an iPhone use it! Hopefully for you
WoW-oholics out there, this will push you over the edge and you'll
start scrimping for one. This app is a definite MUST HAVE if you enjoy
your Alternate Reality as much as I do!
Oh, before I forget, here are some shots of the Calendar and the Achievement screens. Damn I LOVE THIS THING! Now go get yourself an iPhone! Love it, cherish it and GET THIS APP!!
