Just got a burning crusade beta key. I'm looking to sell it though as I don't have the time to play.

Don't mention it here, just chuck it up on ebay. Loads of people want one. Not to mention the more that flood the market the cheaper they become. :)

Stop your bloody crying! Why is every player an angsty teen who things every man and their dog hates them? /rant

The armour is a place holder (check the beta forums).

Agreed!

*cough*naked gnome protest*cough*(If you're not sure what this is, look it up on YouTube, a huge group of Gnomes got together and went streaking through towns to protest their lack of abilities, I heard they ended up crashing the server)

I like the game just the way it is, and get beat in BGs by Alliance sometimes, so I don't see any way that the game is unbalanced, it's the players. Some human warriors I can own, even if they're higher level than me, in fact just today I took on a rogue, warrior and mage in Warsong Gulch by myself, all of whom were higher level than me, and won. But then again I have fought human warriors lower level than me who eat me alive. It's all in how you play your character. If you get beat a lot in BGs it's because you or the people you're playing with are doing something wrong, not because the opposite side is stronger than you are or because your race is weaker than the rest. Sorry to add to the /rant but I hear people on the official forums constantly whining, "Horde players always win in the BGs we never win, they're made stronger than us". I will admit that in the BGs I fight in we win 7 out of 10 matches, but those 7 matches consist of Alliance players acting like noobs and just running straight down the middle trying to farm HKs. The 3 out of 10 we lose, the Alliance players formulate strategies, they play their class(healers heal, warriors tank, etc.) and they travel in groups, as well as keep people stationed to defend the flag(if it's Warsong Gulch that is). And that's my two cents.

Twinks are out of the question now. Enchants like Crusader etc have been moved to level 35 min.

I've heard of new enchants being level restricted but current enchants were going to stay the way they were. At least that's what I heard, where does it say Crusader is to 35.

Has anyone played on PTR? It's really laggy with constant crashing. As much as the new talents and changes look awesome I really hope the patch is delayed another 4-5 weeks. I have 4 weeks until I hit HWL. I rolled on a new server and I am only rank 12, almost 13.

I have an undead warlock and 7/43/11 (around there) looks like an awesome PvP spec. I was testing the non destruction part of the build and it looks amazing with high damage.

Demonology has gotten a nice chunk of damage increase with the felguard and the new damage talents. Also full destruction looks great too. (7/5/39 right now)

Finally character was put on PTR and fully installed, updated and 600 person que. /sigh

You're not missing much. All talents don't come in to their own until TBC.

Saying that the 'nerfs' are there from the get go! :p

Time to respec frost for me now Fire has the same DPS with out the survivablity. Ice lance + frozen warrior = 3 shot win.

    • JetBrains launches Rider 2026.2 EAP 5, bringing several AI improvements by David Uzondu JetBrains has released the fifth EAP version of Rider 2026.2, bringing a faster startup flow with the new non-modal startup screen and quality-check hooks for Claude Code and Codex. In the latest EAP release, Rider now has newly bundled "quality-check" hooks that run background tests on code edits before the external agent proceeds. For example, after Claude Code rewrites a class, Rider immediately triggers a PostToolUse hook that analyzes the code for syntax errors and formatting warnings. It then passes those findings back to the model as feedback, allowing the agent to fix its own output before finalizing the task. If Rider detects compilation errors, the IDE prevents the agent from treating the task as complete, while minor formatting warnings simply help guide the model toward better output. The "Explain with AI" feature can now tackle tricky build errors directly from the console, helping .NET developers who frequently wrestle with multi-targeting failures and MSBuild errors. JetBrains introduced Explain with AI back in the 2024.1 release cycle. With this feature, instead of forcing developers to copy long diagnostics into a separate chat window, Rider now lets you trigger these explanations directly from the error source. In similar EAP news, JetBrains recently opened the first EAP for IntelliJ IDEA 2026.2, with features that appeal to both those who are into AI-assisted coding and those who prefer "classic" manual development. For manual developers, the release adds revamped dependency completion for Maven and Gradle build scripts, which pulls data directly from the local cache to suggest relevant versions. It also brings the Spring Debugger update, displaying security indicators next to endpoints to visualize secured routes during runtime. In addition to database migration tools for Flyway and Liquibase, this build introduces a Hibernate debugger that shows the exact SQL or HQL queries that the framework plans to execute, letting developers jump directly to the Java code that triggered them.
    • I have updated my Series 9 Watch so I assume there is either a mistake in what was said, or as suggested - the new AI feature set isn’t supported on anything other than those listed above.
    • WhatsApp slams Isreali firm, NSO Group, for trying to spy on its users by David Uzondu WhatsApp has come out accusing Israeli cyber-intelligence firm, NSO Group, of deploying a fresh wave of highly targeted "spear phishing" attacks against users, which its security teams successfully thwarted. The Israeli firm, according to WhatsApp, ran this operation like its usual one-click phishing campaigns, trying to get people to click malicious links that lead them to external sites. To coordinate the campaign, the spyware vendor created fake test accounts and groups on the messaging app. WhatsApp said it is sharing the specific malicious domains, ikhwancast[.]com, ghazacast[.]com, and fr24cast[.]com, because potential victims need this data to check if they were targeted across other messaging systems or email platforms. The NSO Group is infamous for creating and selling Pegasus, a military-grade commercial spyware capable of silently compromising smartphones simply by sending a message or placing a missed call via apps like WhatsApp or iMessage. Users do not even have to interact with the incoming notification before the infection takes hold. Once Pegasus manages to break in, the spyware harvests private data, letting operators read private messages, emails, photos, and documents. It also tracks precise GPS locations, records keystrokes, activates the device's camera, and monitors live microphone audio. Independent investigations by cybersecurity watchdogs like The Citizen Lab and human rights organizations like Amnesty International have proven that governments use this software to track humanitarian workers, journalists, diplomats, and political dissidents. These findings directly contradict NSO Group claims that clients use the technology to spy on criminals and terrorists only. In late 2021, the U.S. Department of Commerce added the firm to its Entity List, effectively banning the vendor from buying hardware and software from American tech companies. WhatsApp said in its blog post that the spyware vendor violated a permanent court injunction with this new spear-phishing campaign. This injunction, which took effect in 2025, strictly prohibited NSO Group from targeting WhatsApp and its users. The platform is now asking a federal court to hold the firm in contempt.
