WoW Word of the Week: pugnacious

August 24th, 2008

Because yes, I had to look it up the first time I stumbled across The Pugnacious Priest.

pugnacious

\puhg-NAY-shuhs\, adjective:
Inclined to fight; combative; quarrelsome.

Example: I have noticed a direct correlation between the number of times we’ve wiped on a boss and how pugnacious the raid is.  It’s like a stacking debuff.
