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.

I finally am getting around to re-doing my Interface since TBC, and going to use strictly ACE2 addons.

@Dark Ride

I see you're a beast mastery hunter and I got a suggestion for you. Since you rely on your pets damage quite a lot, it'd be beter if you taught him damage talents instead of Cower and Prowl. The best attacks for a BM pet (a cat in your case) would be claw,bite, and of course growl. The last attack spot is mostly used for Dash, but it doesn't really matter...

Thanks for the info. Which beasts can I learn claw and bite from ?

Regarding the MAGE:

Right now I am #5 on the DPS chart in my raid, and just wanting to fine tune my play style so I am utilizing my mage to the best of my abilities.

Any comments or suggestions would be appreciated.

My specs are listed on the side. Right now I for raids, I am mainly just spamming Fireball and Scortch. Will POM up my Pyroblast from time to time. Not really using anything from the Frost tree. Also, since AM take up a lot of mana, I really don't use those much. For AOE I'm using Arcane Explosion / BW / Flame strike.

As far as PVP, I really use the same tactics above. Trying to burn down the healers or cloth wears first. I've been out of the game two months and trying to relearn the play style of the mage.

I'm a 70 undead mage that does weekly kara runs and I'm 40/21/0 spec'ed.

My armory http://armory.worldofwarcraft.com/characte...r&n=Aaronmt

Side Note: Tomorrow I should have enough rep for the Stormcaller [Thrallmar]

My rotation involves Scortch x 5, Trinket, Fireball (repeated), Top off scortch again, Fireblast.

For PVP you will want to go frost as you have more survivability options and more toys to play with as frost for controlling your enemies.

Yes, I love frost for Ice Lance. You can root them with Frost Nova then Ice Lance them, usually critting them like mad. :heart:

Yeah Frost FTW, however upon reactivating ive rerolled as a Warlock. I dunno the mage just wasnt doing it for me, plus not having played for 7 odd months my gear was more obsolete than WindowsME...

Whilst there could be other factors at play im enjoying levelling a lock, pets/demons are fun to have plus seems to make grinding alot easier particularly with a high hps pet.

Yeah before I started my mage, I leveled up to 46 on a warlock - for some reason it didn't do it for me so I started a mage (this was before any of the class revamps, so this was when locks used to suck big time). But one thing I do miss about locks is you can grind so fast with you and your pet.

What I usually use for my hunter. Pet wise.

Thank you both. My pet learned claw and dash. It's great! :D Now I just have to find a beast with Bite (Rank 7).

Spec'd arcane ATM for Tempest Keep / SCC.

Come next patch, you can clearcast per arcane bolt from arcane missles, meaning, Arcane will be a heck of a lot more mana efficient for 25-mans.

Also, my guild is looking for good shadow priests >_> <_< http://beam.to/bloodsky *cough*pleasehaveatleastfullepicsfromkaraortailoring*cough*

12 straight hours of gameplay, and I got a level 20 shaman to show for it.

Opened up my copy of Brain's guide and decided to roll a Dranie shaman. I have to say this guide so far is kicking some major ass. A friend of mine level's all his toons according to it, and seeing how his toons level quickly, something tells me the rest of the guide will also work out great. 20 levels in 12 hours is a personal best by a long shot, and I thought before using Brian's guide I was quick at leveling. :) Hoping to have this shaman to 70 by the end of September.

Thats pretty good Slane.

I find levelling alot quicker after previously playing it since you know where everything is however, not wasting time going backwards and forwards is the biggest tip anyone can take, especially when you dont have a mount. Plus knowing which quests are just a waste of your time helps.

Woot, I am level 68 on my mage now. I've started doing Shadoweave tailoring and boy... 96 hour cooldown on Shadow Cloth. The only good thing is you get 2 cloths for the mats of 1, and a 60 min buff that gives you 25 stam. But some of the items I want to make take like 8 cloth ... lol.

Best thing to do then (if you didn't already figure this out) is to craft the other two types of cloth and trade them for a piece of shadoweave each. Since the cooldown timers aren't shared, this makes getting the needed Shadoweave a bit easier.

As part of my exploring I decided to check out the region East of Scarlet Monastary that is North of WPL. I didnt actaully get to the region itself as to do that I had to jump down quite a bit(which I did and I died). Next time I'll bring a noggonfogger elixr with me =D

    • Zed 1.7.2 has landed with updated OpenCode models, bug fixes and other improvements by David Uzondu Zed 1.7.2 recently landed on the stable release channel, bringing a host of AI-related features including automatic context compaction and settings-based skill management, along with other things like better Markdown preview rendering and custom git commands in the graph view. Starting with the AI stuff, the developers introduced "/compact", a command that basically summarizes your conversation history on demand. This tool prevents your active chat window from hitting token limits by compressing older parts of the dialogue into a brief overview. In addition to that, the team relocated skill management to the settings UI, improving how the application communicates errors regarding those skills, and updated the OpenCode model roster to support DeepSeek V4 Flash, MiniMax M3, Qwen 3.7 Plus, and Nemotron 3 Ultra Free. External agent users can also monitor context window cost metrics and delete individual sessions directly from their history. Right-clicking ref labels in the git graph now opens a context menu that runs different actions against selected targets, kind of how VS Code does it. Here are some of the bug fixes this new release brings: The active agent fails to auto-select when creating a new git worktree. A scrollbar unexpectedly appears on wrapped code blocks in the agent chat. Collapse indicators for project headers appear when performing sidebar searches. Bracketed ellipsis title prefixes fail to show the ellipsis icon properly. Project icons render incorrectly in the recent projects picker. Diff hunk controls appear inside non-editable commit view multibuffers. The software update button hangs indefinitely on the downloading stage. Restoring an agent terminal in a remote project triggers a sudden crash. Splitting a pane that contains an active commit view causes a crash. Linux Wayland freezes when trying to read the clipboard from laggy external apps. Zed is a "newish" code editor trying to break the massive stronghold VS Code has on the developer community. Funny enough, the editor was created by former GitHub employees who worked on the Atom text editor (which Microsoft killed in 2022, several years after it bought GitHub). The project officially hit version 1.0 back in April, introducing platform parity for Windows and Linux alongside deep support for DeepSeek-V4-Pro.
    • 26H2 absolutely will support ARM Windows just not on devices that came with 26H1. This is evident by the fact I am running 26H2, which on my MacBook Neo and Surface Pro 12 (inch), within a VM.

    • The FIFA World Cup is not US centric.
    • It’s amusing how Microsoft is pushing IT admins as if this was a major, game-changing update. In reality, it’s just an enablement package that bumps the build number, which is disappointing compared to the more substantial 22H2 and 24H2 releases. Technically, 25H2, 26H1, and the upcoming 26H2 are essentially the same, differing only in support schedules. They could have included the Windows K2 improvements here, but chose not to. The era of Windows being in the backburner continues, and this 26H2 release feels like an afterthought. Shame, Nadella, shame.
