Getting to Hyjal involves going through Darkwhisper Gorge in Winterspring so if you cant handle the elites dodge them or attack them and slow there movement speed(like I did) and run. =).

The area I got to hyjal is to the left of the Future Hyjal Entrance(It's a cave with an invisible wall/barrier inside). If you pull up your map, it's roughly between the D and the A in the word Darkwhisper.

Climbing to the left of the cave you will see a short ledge, yes it does require wall climbing(took me an hour and a half to do) but once your up there it's all walking.

Plugins I got:

AGUF

Skinner

Clearfont 2

Fubar

MoneyFu

clockFu

ExperienceFu

Quartz

Cycircled

Cycircled Vol

Im missing a few more but you can find them on wowace.com as thats where I get my plugins.

zomg I started playing again. I have a 70 hunter but I decided to shelf him (even though I spent a LOT of time on him) and go back to my mage. She is only level 60, but I'll grind up to 70 in the coming weeks.

I think I quit because hunter was getting boring and I needed magic back in my life. :p

Anyway, here's my character profile for my mage:

My gear pretty much sucks since I haven't played this character since before BC came out, lol.

I stopped playing November last year, if my characters are still available im in a similar situation to you Lexcyn, good ol lvl 60 frost mage. In the absense of any other games that appeal to me at present, im thinking of renewing my subscription to fill in some time between now and Age of Conan, plus I must confess the Death Knight and a deeper investigation of Arthas' lands are appealing.

Frost mages FTW. :)

Looking at all these nice-looking and useful UI mods and addons makes me want to use a few myself. The only addons I use at the moment are Auctioneer, MetaMap and Atlas. Any other useful addons do you guys recommend (lvl 47 Hunter / Beastmaster / Blood Elf) and some UI mod(s) that will clean up the interface a bit ?

TrinityBars but requires some configuration, ItemRack, Bagnon and CT mods.

Well with the recent people showing off thier UI i thought i would show mine as well.

I have tweaked it a far bit since this screen to suit my new widescreen monitor. It now includes a combat log on the right hand side of the screen, i ditched metamap in favor of cartographer which i am in love with now and will never ever go back to metamap.

what all addons are u using in this ss, that looks sweet! i need a change from titan...badly =P

KTM Has now been replaced with Omen as well i forgot to mention.

Most of the UI uses:

ElkBuffBars (Cant see them in the screen but buff bars appear above the damage meter)

SimpleMiniMap

Grid (For the party and raid frames on the bottom left)

Decursive (The little squares above the party frames)

Bartender3

cyCircled

Fubar (And a bunch of fubar plugins sssoo much better then titan)

oRA2

Quartz (For the cast bar)

Archud 2

eePanels

SimpleCombatLog

SW_Stats (Damage Meter)

Lootlink

Spellcraft

There is quite a few that i can't remember off the top of my head since i am at work at the moment. I am slowly shifting into using more ACE2 based addons.

Since this screen shot i have also removed quite a few buttons (and in the process of removing more) and using macros and key modifiers instead. Makes for binding and casting easier imho. For example Number 1 casts fireball, hold down shift and press it and it casts frostbolt instead. I have only just started to move into using macros to do a lot more and not looking back now macros are purely awesome :)

I installed the Sewell UI mod. But it needs some cleaning up. How do I set the pet action bar a little lower ? Also want to make the player frames smaller and maybe completely remove the player "avatars". The bottom thing (where the action bars and chat/combat log are) could be shrinked a bit too. Can anyone tell me how to do that ?

Well I'm now level 65 with my mage. It seems everyone on my server is already 70 so no one is doing lower level instances, so I'm kind of boned for doing those quests which require them. Oh well - I guess I will have to just grind quests.

By the way ... how the heck do you get a netherwing drake as a mount? Is there a guide you can follow online for all the steps to the quest?

    • "just $100 per TB"? Just? Are we trying to make this seem like the new normal? Kinda weird to make it sound like that is not a ridiculously expensive asking price.
    • The reviews you refer to mean nothing. Where there is no journalism there is no reason to call the gaming media's opinion pieces "reviews". For GP games there is indeed a metric for success - increasing subscriptions. Which turns in revenue. The only circumstance in which subs do not rise when great is being released is a Game Pass system where the company is close to fully saturated with customers in a subscription. However, in that case as the theory goes you spend aplenty in all kind of games - from shady live service cash cows and customer offending agitprop crap in purple colours to robust and entertaining single player games. And keep a solid level of profitability. Ignoring the simply innocuous but mid games MGS has released primarily of the second kind.
    • Report: Microsoft to use AWS to help GitHub deal with a major surge in demand by Pradeep Viswanathan Thanks to the surge of coding AI agents, GitHub's usage has skyrocketed over the past 12 months. To meet this demand, GitHub started with a plan in October 2025 to increase capacity by 10x. However, by early this year, the company realized that it needed 30x scale. This rapid growth has caused severe strain on the platform's reliability, resulting in several small outages over the past few months. In April, GitHub published a long blog post explaining the steps it is taking to resolve these reliability issues. In the post, the company also confirmed that it is working toward a multi-cloud architecture for better resilience. Today, Business Insider reported that GitHub is turning to Amazon Web Services to help deal with a major surge in AI-driven coding activity. It is important to note that GitHub is still in the process of moving completely to the Azure cloud. The current plan is to move the platform fully to Azure by 2027 so that it can scale better as per developer demand. Therefore, the current decision to utilize AWS might be part of a short-term plan to meet immediate demand. A Microsoft spokesperson confirmed that GitHub is using multiple cloud providers with the following statement: For Microsoft, the decision highlights the operational pressure behind the AI boom. GitHub has to stay reliable for developers at a time when rivals such as Codex, Cursor, Claude Code, and other AI coding tools are gaining attention. And the decision to use AWS for computing capacity seems practical given the circumstances.
    • It's growing on me, however, your right, it make better usability sense if the tabs were bellow the address bar.
    • Qwen 3.6 is better value per dollar, and you can run it locally for free.
