The Great Gnomeregan Run is in-game in WoW this weekend only. Since 2009, this community-driven event has raised money for the cure for breast cancer, where you'll run a little pink-haired gnome from Gnomeregan to Booty Bay.

IT IS THE WEEKEND! Okay, it's basically the weekend. It's Friday. It counts. So what are you going to be playing? Just asking. Not because I am paralyzed by indecision over whether to log on to WoW and do the Darkmoon Faire or contemplate everything I bought in the Steam Autumn Sale.

This week's Blizzard Watch Podcast is all about the end-game, which is to say transmog and holiday home decor. We may not be turning our homes into pumpkins, but we're certainly hoping to surround them with pumpkins for a festive seasonal look. This and more on the latest episode, now live!

Part of going back to the beginning of #WorldofWarcraft in WoW: Forever is finding weapons trainers. And wondering why no one in Ironforge can teach me to use a staff. IT'S JUST A BIG STICK, GUYS, COME ON!! Not that I'm upset. I should have checked the trainer list before getting my hopes up.

Hallow's End starts in just a few days, but you know we already scoped out the best decor the holiday has to offer. We don't always report on like, how this one ability for this one class got a decimal point moved or whatever, but we're absolutely on top of the #RealEndGame.
