Hehe i'm on my 6th time back playing it! Mean I already quit 5 times. I also really think exit #6 is coming up real soon, getting bored as a board already and only been playing 10 days.

I'm still not over it. I'm having withdrawal symptoms waiting for 2.1.0 to download :p

yay coming back to WoW. Except, I don't know what to roll. Debating between: hunter, warrior, druid or.... mage. What do you guys think? I want to pvp mainly, and I normally do solo pvp in the BGs. Maybe some 10 man raids and definetely heroics. I don't think I will have time for 25 man raids (maybe grull and mag).

Anyone have the MD5 sum for the 2.012 to 2.1 ENGB patch? I'm downloading from a mirror and I'd like to check against someone else

59FAB75B61B911C53104F6BF3CD044A9 wow-partial-2.MPQ

That is all I can do for you. The Blizzard downloader downloaded that. :p

Edit: More coming apparently. Since I don't have an active subscription I haven't really bothered with patching any more than put the background downloader on. Don't want any 385 meg surprises when I start playing again. ;P

I think choice between those characters depends on where you want to be in a battle and the level of armor you want. Personally, I've been happiest with a Mage as I love the power of the magic they wield and like standing back in a battle, and have my main character as one. Only drawback of Mages is the lack of armor but being able to teleport between cities (for you or a group you're in) and conjure up water and food (saving buying them), as well as having the most destructive magic makes them my favorite character. Hunters and warriors are also great fun, but I like magic more than hand weapons.

Mages are great, but what do I know I have played one for 3yrs now :p

Hunters are awesome for PvP and level extremely fast, problem is they were not needed for alot of end game instances. Which sucked, but supposedly 2.1 was going to address that.

Druids: I love my druid, so fun to have a real option. Play a healer, and sit back and just heal all day, or play a warrior or rogue in cat/bear forms.. They are pretty easy to level considering the different forms, and the ability to heal yourself, but can get expensive on the armor side since you need to find 2 to 3 different sets of armor depending on what you want to do at the time. Great Hybrid though, and alot of fun to play.

I think I will make a mage. They are always wanted for DPS and CC and I do not like healing that much (hated it on my priest), and I don't know how wanted a cat druid would be.

Thanks for the help guys. Also, what spec would you recommend for a mage while leveling up? I got a mage to 34 or so previously, but I got bored as I just keep AOE grinding with frost.

I've tried twice, never reached level 40... mage is by far the most boring class ever made. :p

Feral druids can tank and tanks are rare. They're great through Karazhan (unless your horde where Nightbane > tremor totem). Past that the abilities of warriors make them prefered raid tanks. For all 5-man content druids are top tier. As DPS they are also quiet respectable assuming they're well played. Losing some CC sucks but that really doesn't matter until you're doing harder heroics anyway.

5/5 Arcane Missiles then go down frost for solo play. Frost bolt -> Arcane Missiles spam is brutally effective at low levels. It took me about 3 days played to get to 39 using something like this. Not ideal, but it did the job.

A 40 I started grouping with friends for instances regularly so I went full fire to spam scorch. With 150-200 spell damage at level 50?€”PvP rewards + a couple "of fiery wrath" greens and a couple of tailored pieces?€”I'm able to grind and group effectively.

In a couple of more levels we'll be heading to Outland and I'm thinking that a 3-minute mage build with spell power is the way to go as I expect a fair bit of PvP this time around.

In Burning Crusade Feral Druids are most popular, but really only for one thing: Tanking. (This is apparently all we can do if were Feral, not like myself doing decent DPS;)nd Off Healing) ;) My character JMann (70 Druid) I like to think I have 3 very decent sets of gear one for each type (Healing, DPS, Tanking) I have just started Karazhan got to the 3rd Boss Maiden at the moment and I am usually tanking and get the slight DPS spots sometimes.

<:) />Druids ftw. :)

Best Server, but still way to many Gold spammers. ;)

speaking off Gold spammers.. How is it now with the patch?

I had a buddy tell me yesterday that he got about 6, when I am on the same server and got 0.

I know usually in a normal day "pre-patch" I got around 25-30 gold spams

Not having much time to play anymore, but I will keep an eye out for them. ;)

    • I have never been a huge fan of libre, it feels really good but exactly when you need an advance feature for data wrangling it falls short every time or has bugs. I am all for euro office if they can deliver a good and usable alternative to MS office with backing of govt function.
    • Go on, I'll bite. How does windows (nice comment on an 'article' which doesn't actually involve it ) lock users out of their data then? Been using it since 3.1 back in 92 and not once have I been locked out of my data? Perhaps you mean Bitlocker? In which case the average user (who doesn't mess about) will have been forced to use a MSA, and in which case the recovery key would have been saved to said account..... If the user did happen to bodge around and not use an MSA then Bitlocker wouldn't have become live (as it cannot without a safe place to store the key) I want to point out Bitlocker and MSA are not connected and you can of course force it on without a safe place to store the key, but you do that with your eyes open. So your standard consumer who knows no better sets up an MSA, gets bitlocker and a recovery key stored off box, with a route to reset their password. All of this notwithstanding the fact, if your data is important, you back it up, no ifs, no buts, no-ones responsibility other than your own. Important data lives in at least two locations, one of which is offline and recovery is tested, otherwise that data wasn't really that important. Disks, fail, laptops get lost, phones end up down the toilet, tablets get stolen, if your only copy of data is on a single device you're doing it wrong.
    • Clearly that feature isn't for us. It's for the ad spam marketers so they can more directly target us about going to places we might want to go again...but without understanding context clues. Like for the flight someone took for a friend's funeral. We want to be reminded of that every time we open an app, a browser, or email, right? Right, Siri?
    • Is your Apple Watch supported? Check the watchOS 27 compatibility list by Aditya Tiwari Apple kicked off WWDC 2026 with a ton of announcements, mostly centered around Apple Intelligence improvements, the Siri AI, and Liquid Glass updates. However, there is a lot of other stuff that couldn't catch the limelight. Let's talk about watchOS 27 and which models are supported by the newest operating system. According to the Cupertino giant, watchOS 27 will be supported on the following Apple Watch models when it arrives later this year: Apple Watch Ultra 3 Apple Watch Series 11 Apple Watch SE 3 Apple Watch Series 10 Apple Watch Ultra 2 It's a stark contrast with last year's watchOS 26 update, which had almost a dozen Apple Watch models in its list of supported devices. Apple supported models all the way back to Apple Watch Series 6. That said, if you own one of the five models, you'll need an iPhone 11 (or later) with iOS 27 to install the latest update. Yes, Apple has shown some extra love to the iPhone 11, and it old horse supports the iOS 27 update. watchOS 27 beta 1 is now available for developers and interested power users through the Apple Developer Program. So, if you're among those who like to play with fire, you can download it to your supported Apple Watch. Otherwise, the public beta for watchOS 27 will be available next month. The freshly baked Apple Watch update comes with Siri AI - an advanced, fully conversational version of Siri powered by Apple Intelligence due for later this year. A new dynamic app grid features icons for five Siri-suggested apps. You can use a new tap gesture to open a widget in the Smart Stack, and a new Find My app finally clears the mess of Find Devices, Find Items, and Find People on Apple Watch. Workout Buddy can run without an iPhone nearby and offers new insights based on data, including your progress for pace, distance, and workout duration. Apple improved its motion tracking algorithms to measure the distance of indoor treadmill runs and walks more precisely. Speaking of other changes, the music playback on watchOS 27 starts faster and you can create custom passes for any membership or card that uses a QR code or barcode, then easily access them in the Wallet app or pin in the Smart Stack.
    • "and pull old flight details from your email during back-and-forth conversations" The Siri I've become to know and trust. I've always wanted to pull info on old flights. /s
