hey wassup guys. hey got a hunter question. .. which is a better animal to get? Broken tooth which spawns every 8 hrs or king bhang or any elite animals. i am a lvl 48 hunter and i have already tamed broken tooth.

Doesn't really matter. What you want is damage and since interrupts are on diminishing return you won't really benefit from a mad fast attack speed in PVP and not at all in PVE. Furthermore, as you progress through the game your pet will not scale damagewise with you and will start to lose aggro faster if you're grinding. What you need to cancel that is... more damage. Basically, any cat will do.

If you're not grinding and doing instances instead, obviously your pet won't draw aggro from your MT... so just throw in some more damage.

If you're PVPing your pet won't even be on the list of viable targets for your foes. Damage damage damage!

Edit: The scaling part was meant for endgame content. You will get more and better equipment, your pet will still be as nude as the day you tamed him/her. ;)

Anyway, How are people doing in Naxx? I havn't been there yet as a raid, but my guild has just killed Nefarian.. may not sound that special, but we're the first guild on the realm to do so!

My guild has been to Naxx on a few occasions and came to the realization that we need to get the gear from AQ40 before we attempt it. We are all mostly tier2 gear, and can finish BWL in 4 hours, but it's just not enough for Naxx. If you are going to attempt it you MUST have really good gear on everyone.

Not true. It can be done with 1/4 of the raid in full T1. With my last guild we downed 1st spider boss (name evades me), 1% wipe on instructor and got a good attempt out on the widow and plaguebringer bosses.

AQ40 is dire imo for profit/loss. The loot really isn't that grand either.

Can someone explain to me the general idea of a MMORPG? I loved WarCraft III and would like to try this one out.

From what I can gather, you meet up with a bunch of people. Now, when you join a clan (party, whatever) do you all set out on the same quest and fight the same enemies? Are there quests designed specifically for parties (meaning they require 5+ players to beat)? I realize these are pretty general and rookie questions...gotta start somewhere I guess

Thanks.

In WoW (World of Warcraft), what you call "clans" are reffered to as Guilds.

Yes, they are pretty much End Game guilds (wolf pack) or more lathargic style (helpful and having fun.)

Not to say the Wolf packs, rofl, are not having fun.

I def reccomend this game, especially if you liked the WC3 Lore and gameplay. Reason is that you get to become one of your peon's basically, and emerse yourself even more in the world that we Blizz fans do SO love. <3

Just watch out for those :shiftyninja:

Now it's on to the Badlands, where you get to deal with 8billion coyotes running all over, and earth elementals on every single border :) Nah, it is a pretty good zone, with some good quests. Miners will love it because there is a ton of ore to be had here, mostly iron, some silver/gold/mithril. You can also head to Tanaris at some point, where there are another good supply of quests. Ooops, almost forgot Grom'Gol in stranglethorn vale. A huge amount of quests here, including 1 for a 14 slot bag at level 36. Make sure you don't skip this area, lots of great stuff here. Almost forgot Feralas as well. Not a lot of quests here, but it is an absolutely gorgeous zone. There is 1 long questline that ends with an amazing weapon, no matter what your class (4 to choose from).

http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/info/basics/questlevels.html - Intresting never knew about that.

Just some guide, when searched for 'Horde Leveling Guide' I dunno much about the horde side yet, still trying to finish my alliance character in good gear, then I'll start a horde toon.

Anyone now which ISP's were affected in the last little WoW news today? Everytime I start to play WoW I get disconnected and my cable box loses the cable light and it'll come back on, I'll surf the internet it's fine and once I start to play WoW again it screws up. So anyone now which ISP's were the ones affected? I'm on Road Runner (time warner cable).

depends on the class

my lock and mage had no trouble there at 49 50

Most of the quests in there are for level 52-53 mobs. How many partial and full resists did you get? :wacko:

I my self when leveling a toon tend to go for somewhere with mobs that are 1 to 2 levels below. Unless there is a quest which gives a great deal of XP for very little effort (see hot springs quest in Ungoro).

Question:

For my friend..

He has a problem: After playing few mins, or during fight, it scrambles then freezes. Have to reboot. He could play few hours just out of luck, but at MOST, he can play only few minutes before it freezes.

New drivers and all drivers updated..is this possibly ram or video card gone bad?

lemme know what you think....

    • DWARF mini review: the world's smallest smart telescope for night and day sky captures

      By Nick H. · Posted

      I sort of agree with you on that. I had a telescope - a real hefty thing, although only around 500CHF - that got me so fascinated about the stars and planets. I would stare for hours, amazed that I could see the craters of the moon or the rings of Saturn in "realtime" (quotations because, y'know, speed of light and whatnot). A friend of mine has a telescope like the one mentioned in the review, and the pictures are amazing to look at. But there is something missing for me. I may as well just go to NASA's website and look through their gallery.
    • Halo: Campaign Evolved is out next month with new prequel missions

      As opposed to catching bad press because it's the engine's fault? You didn't really think this through did you? lol. The engine has all the tools a dev needs to optimize their game, Epic isn't gonna hold their hand to make sure they use them. Also, Epic isn't forcing anyone to use Lumen, Nanite or super high resolution meshes and textures. Just because Nanite can render meshes with millions of polygons doesn't mean you should use it like that, in fact, Epic recommends you avoid doing that. Most of the stuttering can easily be fixed by cutting down on unique shaders by using master materials and generating a PSO cache and compiling every shader before loading the game and managing what must be loaded and unloaded at runtime, it's up to the developer to set all that up properly.

      I think it depends on what you're looking for to do, and the time you have to spare. With my Dwarf 3, I easily spend 3-4 hour sessions; half an hour driving to an un-light polluted place, another half hour unpacking and setting up the smart scope + tripod for equatorial tracking, then 15 more minutes mucking around with settings and shooting calibration frames, spending a few hours shooting, merging with past photo sessions, etc. It's crazy how time flies and I often get home later than I expected. It's something I still need to set aside a good part of an evening to do, all in all. For one session, where you often need like four for best results when it comes to deep space objects. Even with a smart scope like Dwarf 3, regular non-astro photography is still way more approachable to people getting into photography. I find this is a time consuming niche no matter how I go about it. With practice, I can probably begin cutting time here but I think where smart scopes find their home is among people who love to shoot the night sky but don't have the spare time to go deep with the "navigator level" attunement to the night sky itself in addition to everything else. Having said this, _if_ you have even more time to spend on this hobby, it will probably be even more rewarding to do it more by hand and learn the skies and the details of how it all works.

      I misread the title and thought Teams itself would be redesigned. Imagine having this one as a native WinUI app.
    • Dell, HP PCs ran into endless reboot, BitLocker recovery loops but Windows 11 isn't to blame

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      Dell, HP PCs ran into endless reboot, BitLocker recovery loops but Windows 11 isn't to blame by Sayan Sen Last month Neowin reported on a major issue on Dell systems wherein a bug in its official support tool was leading to endless blue screen of death (BSOD) and restarts. Following our report, Dell officially acknowledged its SupportAssist-related crash issue, confirming that the culprit is not Microsoft's operating system but rather a faulty version of its own remediation software. In a newly published support advisory, Dell stated that version 5.5.16.0 of Dell SupportAssist Remediation and Alienware SupportAssist Remediation can trigger blue screen errors and unexpected system restarts. The company notes that the problematic component operates independently of the main SupportAssist application, meaning users should not remove the primary SupportAssist software when troubleshooting the issue. According to Dell, the crashes are linked specifically to the SupportAssist Remediation service, which is bundled with SupportAssist OS Recovery Tools, and as such it has since released an updated version, 5.5.16.1, which is said to resolve the problem. Affected users are advised to first verify whether version 5.5.16.0 is installed by checking the Installed Apps section in Windows Settings. If so, Dell recommends updating SupportAssist OS Recovery Tools through either SupportAssist's "Update Software" feature or Dell Command Update. Dell also advises users to back up important data before performing the update and to ensure systems remain connected to power throughout the installation process. If you are still having issues though make sure to report to the Dell support forum. As it turns out though Dell is not the only PC maker currently dealing with update-related headaches as HP is also facing a separate but probably equally frustrating issue involving recent Windows Secure Boot updates that were released with recent Windows 11 Patch Tuesdays. Similar to Dell, HP also put up its own support article where it explains the issue. The company says that affected devices could hit a brick wall when booting as they run into a BitLocker recovery loop after the April 2026 updates. The problem appears to affect systems wherein the new UEFI Secure Boot CA 2023 certificates fail to apply properly. As such affected users will find themselves entering their recovery key over and over again despite the system otherwise functioning normally. HP says such PCs should be updated to the latest available BIOS version and configured with the necessary Secure Boot certificates before installing Microsoft's Windows 11 Patch Tuesday updates. Systems that are already experiencing the problem may require BIOS configuration changes to restore normal boot behavior. Admins can find information regarding that in the support article here on HP's official website.
