Sorry Blizzard lost out already in my book. When my play card runs out in 8 days that'll be it for me. I haven't played WoW in about 2 weeks and don't intend to anytime soon. This patch adds nothing of interest for me, and it seems Blizzard doesn't want to fix underlying issues anyways. So bleh on Blizzard.

I'm just sick of Blizzard only thinking about High-level Players.

For the rest of us, it's usually "Will be added later on ..."

Honor System .. For High-levels

Battlegrounds ... ^^ ( Lower level Battlegrounds to be "added later on" ... :rolleyes: )

I don't see the fun in WoW anymore, i'll give it a chance sure but ... They really gotta pull themselfs together!

just get level hax, i obviously have those too :pp

yeah, I don't really think they implemented the honor system correctly....When theres HUGE groups of people pvping any mage can just run in and aoe, then run away and wait for everyone to die and its easy points, got about 90 points in a short time :no::

I think the reason there's not a lot of changes being made for low and mid-level areas is the fact that it doesn't take long at all to get to level 60. You can reach the cap with about 9 to 16 days of /played time, so it's not that big of a deal at all compared to other games. I'd like to see some more low and mid-level content, though, because I make new characters very often and I'm getting tired of the same old thing.

On another note, any Alliance players that don't know about the Chicken quest in Westfall should try it out. Go to Saldean's Farm and spam /chicken while targeting on of the chickens. Eventually it will turn into a friendly NPC that you will be able to talk to, giving you a quest to get feed. You buy the feed from Saldean and take it back to the chicken, who will lay an egg. The egg summons a Prairie Chicken that will follow you around as a pet.

How dual wielding works? I already trained the skill with a weapon master and now I have two weapons. But when I fight I just do damage with the one in the main haid

What weapon are you using in the main hand and in the off-hand? If they're both daggers (for example), obviously they're using the same skill points. If one is a dagger and the other is, let's say, an axe, you've also gotta have skill points in 1H axes for it to do any damage. Checking the combat logs helps when you're seeing something weird going on, such as this.

Keep in mind the main hand weapon does full damage whereas the off-hand weapon only does 50% damage. DW also has a chance of missing 50% of the time (or something like that).

Plus if you aren't a rogue, you won't be getting melee bonuses, so if you're a DW'ing hunter, it's probably more beneficial to use 2H weaps (that benefit your ranged attack as well, since if you're a hunter you should be focusing on ranged in the first place).

Hope that helps.

I started playing around like 8 EST, so it was kind of late for me. Right when i logged on (i was camped in xroads) i couldn't nove for 3 minutes. When i finally could move i noticed the latency was over 2K.... yea. Then i walk out and notice over 200 alliance/horde fighting like hell. I really wanted to get to the killin, but i was only 32, and all of them were ?? to me. But i got into a raid group and thought "hey this will be good, i will get some kills now"... wrong, everytime we would go to do something, half the people would leave or just do nothing, so i opnly ended up with 14 honor kills :( . But anyway, i really like the concept for the PvP awards now, but i wish they would make the servers able to handle it better. Anyone else have some stories to tell?

If you have a class that has a DoT or AoE you can get TONS of Honorable Kills by doing any type of damage to the opposing faction. I chose Tarren Mill/Southshore to rack up some HKs yesterday. As a lvl 31 Priest, I ended up with 400 HKs after fighting for a few hours. I just continuously threw DoTs on people and backed up to heal myself. I was also fighting almost all lvl ?? people, encountering only about 10 people under lvl 40 during the battle.

Honor System is a misnomer. You get the most honorable kills for murdering in the most dishonorable ways.

People are racking up hundreds of kills by 40-man raiding poor level 50s questing in Felwood. If you haven't hit 60 by now, I'd build some rested xp until they fix this "honor" system if I were you.

If people thought getting ganked one on one or two on one was bad, try taking on an entire raid that collectively does 10,000 damage per second.

Raids are not going to give as many contribution points, which is vital. The key is to work in 5 man groups for real gain.

P.S.

Just got my Paladin Epic Charger tonight. :woot:

i dont have any AoE spells yet as a hunter. I believe i get volley around 40, but by then i dont think people wil be doing as much PvP. i can just shoot arrows from a distance and DoT them, but whenever i get close it lags so bad i cant even target anything. :wacko:

LOL last night was a crazy night In wow i was on my 27 warlock in stockads workin on some quest with a PUG . <--- shiver's guild was all busy with other things so from the start i tell them im getting Hit with really bad thunderstorms and i might do LD all said ok . about 1/2 thou my cable drops me hard takes me 10 min to get my connection back i get back in and i guess the group got owned to argo < in the stockads argo is very easy > i start getting whispers from the group saying i was an ###### for going LD and i made the group break up :wacko:

should i feel bad for LDing and casuseing the group to get killed ? i DID tell them fromt eh start i was getting hammered with storms and i might get dropped

    • OpenAI is now rolling out Lockdown Mode to more ChatGPT users by Pradeep Viswanathan Back in February, OpenAI first announced Lockdown Mode for users who want the most comprehensive protection from potential attacks. At the time of the announcement, the company mentioned that this feature was available to a small set of highly security-conscious users, including executives or security teams at leading organizations. Today, OpenAI announced that Lockdown Mode is now rolling out to all personal ChatGPT accounts, including Free, Go, Plus, and Pro, and also self-serve ChatGPT Business accounts. Users can enable the feature from ChatGPT Settings > Security when it is available for their account. When Lockdown Mode is enabled, ChatGPT limits or disables several features that connect to the web or external services. These include live web browsing, Deep Research, Agent Mode, and more. Here is the complete list of services that will be disabled in Lockdown Mode: Live web browsing: Web browsing is limited to accessing only cached content. Search results may be limited, unavailable, or stale. Image support: ChatGPT may not display images in regular responses or retrieve images from the web. Users can still upload image files, and image generation remains available where it is otherwise available. Deep research: Deep research is disabled. Agent mode: Agent mode is disabled. Canvas networking: Users cannot approve Canvas-generated code to access the network. File downloads: ChatGPT cannot download files for data analysis. ChatGPT can still operate on your manually uploaded files. It is important to note that Lockdown Mode does not completely block prompt injections from appearing in content that ChatGPT processes. For example, a malicious instruction could still be present in an uploaded file or cached web content. However, the mode is designed to reduce the ways such an attack could send sensitive information outside the conversation. Along with Lockdown Mode, OpenAI today also announced that the Active sessions feature is now available across ChatGPT accounts and workspace types. This feature allows users to review where their account is signed in across devices and end sessions if required. A session will have the following information displayed: Device or browser information. First-party app context, such as ChatGPT, Codex, or API Platform. Approximate location. Sign-in date and time. Whether the device is a trusted device. Whether it is your current session. OpenAI highlighted that the Active sessions feature will not be available for accounts linked to an organization’s single sign-on setup, including SAML or OIDC.
