I am happy to announce a new feature, or rather a collaboration between Xu-Fu and Pet Sim!

If you don't already know Pet Sim, you have to give it a try! It is a powerful simulator for pet battles, created by Nightmane, that lets you test your teams and scripts very easily.
Or, you can let the simulation run a number of times to see how reliable the strategy works despite any random factors. Yes, looking at you there, Darkness!

Pet Sim has been linked to from Xu-Fu's for a good number of months now, but in the background we have worked on a proper collaboration and integration, and that is live as of now!
On many strategies (most of Dragonflight, Shadowlands and BfA, to be precise), you can now see the Winrate displayed in the info box. Clicking on the Link also opens the team directly, letting you skip the pet selection over at Pet Sim.



The winrate is also now visible in the strategy selection screen, making it easy to filter for and providing a much better sense of reliability than the "RNG" tag of olden times!

Massive kudos to Nightmane for building this amazing webpage and sharing it with the pet battling community here as well!

Thinking of Cataclysm is a real throwback to some great memories. I remember flying across all of Azeroth for the very first time, seeing the regions of this shared world not only from a different perspective but also in their changed form, all thanks to the destroyer. And of course the inevitable death at times.

Thanks everyone for sharing your memories! I hope Cata Classic will revive some of that wonder and nostalgia :-)

By the luck of the draw, the winner of the Blazing Epic Upgrade is: Purple#2600!

Congratulations! You'll get a DM with your code right away :D

What is that? Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No, it's DEATHWING!

Cataclysm Classic is upon us soon and to celebrate, Blizzard Europe has given us a Cata Classic key for yet another giveaway! The key is for the Blazing Epic Upgrade which includes a cool Firelord mount as well as Lil' Wrathion!

To enter this giveaway, we want you to cast your mind back to a time in old-school Cataclysm, when you were peacefully exploring the lands of Azeroth, maybe questing, maybe farming, just to be surprised by a dreading shadow above you, followed by your characters death animation and the achievement Stood in the Fire. Do you remember how it happened? What were you doing at the time? Or were you perhaps one of those actively seeking out Deathwing for his ... warming, achievement-bringing breath?

Let us know in a comment!

Entries will be accepted until May 21st and the winner will be drawn at random as usual.

P.S. If you didn't play during Cataclysm, fine to just leave a comment and let us know what you're looking most forward to in the Cata Classic release :-)
