ty.

The number one thing I want in the next expansion is an increase of toons per server. I have 9 toons, and a name-holder for my DeathKnight. When they release the other Hero Classes (just speculation ATM) I really want to keep them on the same server. And another awesome thing would be a discount for a group transfer of toons. Sucks getting so many toons leveled/geared just to switch servers.

This is the UI I use: Snorecraft UI. Unfortunately it hasn't been updated in over 3 months, however WoW Ace Updater updates most of the addons (I think only 2 you have to update yourself) and the pack is still working fine for me. I've also modified some things slightly, but the general look and organization of everything is still the same.

Heres mine:<snip>

Quick question, I think I downloaded an addon that is one you are using to have your spells and stuff set up like you do. The problem I had was that when shifting in and out of Shadowform, my spell bar changes (on the default UI), but with the addon, the hot keys (1-9) are still linked to my Holy bar, rather than my Shadow bar. Hopefully that made sense... If it did, do you know any way to get around that? Or am I just being a spanner?

I think I downloaded PitBull and eePanels (not sure which one did what, other than using TitanPanel I really haven't done much with Addons and can't remember which one does what!)

Neither of those are bar mods. The 2 big ones are Bartender3 and Bongos2. Basically with stances/forms and the like, the system used is called "Bar Paging". So for the main bar (#1), each stance is assigned another bar (#6-9) which contains the spells for each stance. When you're in that stance, that bar's spells are placed in the main bar's position.

If you're shifting into shadowform and that bars aren't changing then that isn't set up correctly. For Bongos you should be able to right click on a bar, then select the paging tab to see what stances are assigned to what.

Theres an option in Bartender3 that allows you to switch bars on stance. I used it for my warrior, maybe its happening with you and forms(Holy -> Shadow). My druid is 66 so I'll let you know what happens in the next few days when I reach 70 and set up her UI :p!(Its the same concept)

Edit:

You have to set your shadow bar and holy bar up for instance if your shadow spells are on bar one(1) you would do this:

go to bar one, select stances, shadowform, then select the bar with your shadow spells on it(set it as 1, or 2 or w/e number u decided to have ur shadow stuff on)

I have just recently started leveling my Ork warrior, he is level 42.. At 70 iam intending on making him MT for my guild.. I was wondering what sort of stats do I need to be a starting out tank for Kara, and what is the sort of protection tree do I layout, if anyone has any advice or specs please post away :D

http://wow.allakhazam.com/db/class.html?wc...8;num=82;page=1 - Gear list that'll help ya start heroic's and Kara.

Pre-Kara you want to aim for:

- Minimum of 12k HP unbuffed. Preferably 14k selfbuffed.

- 490-500 defense skill.

- 30% avoidance (Parry + dodge).

- 12-13k armour unbuffed.

:blush: Thanks Guys. Bongos sounds familiar, so maybe I downloaded that as well! I would check but it's not installed on this machine. I'll take a look into it. I'm the slowest leveler ever though, I've had my priest for about 2 1/2 years now and am only level 66! Slowly getting there :D

Wow, how is even possible to have the game that length of time and not be 70...

My 45 shaman is only at 2 days 8 hours played ;(

I had a large period of time when I wasn't playing, and at the moment I play extremely rarely because I have other commitments (Uni). I have a few other characters at around 35-40. I spent a while at 60 raiding ZG and MC, but stopped until BC came out. I've just not been able to get back into it properly since :-/

I started having problems with some of the addons I use. PitBull doesn't show the party frames when I'm in a group. They seem to appear tho once we're in an instance and the party starts taking damage.

Omen and Recount stopped working completely. Anyone know what's going on ?

some people just take ages to level.. I feel that on my warrior iam leveling like a snail, but my /played is only 2d 5hrs at 43, and I have not played horde in ages..

It just takes getting used to, even though when I leveled my shaman I still got lost and that was my 3rd alliance toon.

Once you get to outlands its pretty much a cake walk, you just follow the map around like a race track, Hellfire, Zangermarsh, Terroka forest, Nagrand, Blades edge, Nether storm, then Shadow Moon Vally.. thats pretty much how it goes :D

hey can someone recommend me a good class for my friend. He has played a rogue to 60 and priest to 70. Looking for something fun in BG and fun to level up with.

I don't think he would like a warrior or pally because they are both kinda slow (slow weapons) and prefers seeing quick things.

I recommended him a mage + druid, but maybe you guys know better or which would be best between the 2 of them.

Thanks

There is always a hunter, there great fun.. leveled mine really fast.. would recommend them to anyone, but there very common ( every noob under the sun rolls one for there first toon ).

I just rolled a warrior and there great fun, level them with fury Zomg there quick at killing things, you just rip through mobs like no tomorrow, there awesome in pvp, and pve..

As for your recommendations I see a mage as really a one button class, if you level frost, you just end up spamming frost bolt over and over again, I would say that a druid or a shaman would be the way to go as they are both good in pvp fun to level, never die, also very good in pve with their hybrid spec's... just give it a think over but druid or shaman would defiantly have to be the way to go :D

Good luck to your leveling and hope to see you in bg's sometime.

have had the game now for 2 weeks, got 3-4 different characters on different servers, all about level 20, just did deadmines and ohh boy was it hard lol, this game is well addictive, will probably never get to level 70 coz im a noob still haha, one can only try though.

I say Hunter but between a druid and a mage I say go both but if I had to choose what one first I say mage.

    • Rufus 4.15.2393 Beta 2 by Razvan Serea Rufus is a small utility that helps format and create bootable USB flash drives, such as USB keys/pendrives, memory sticks, etc. Despite its small size, Rufus provides everything you need! Oh, and Rufus is fast. For instance it's about twice as fast as UNetbootin, Universal USB Installer or Windows 7 USB download tool, on the creation of a Windows 7 USB installation drive from an ISO (with honorable mention to WiNToBootic for managing to keep up). It is also marginally faster on the creation of Linux bootable USBs from ISOs. A non-exhaustive list of Rufus supported ISOs is available here. It can be especially useful for cases where: you need to create USB installation media from bootable ISOs (Windows, Linux, UEFI, etc.) you need to work on a system that doesn't have an OS installed you need to flash a BIOS or other firmware from DOS you want to run a low-level utility Rufus 4.15.2393 Beta 2 changelog: Add RISC-V 64 support to UEFI:NTFS Improve the guards for using the "silent" option Improve the ability to cancel during write retries Improve progress reporting for compressed image extraction Fix unrestricted XML entity expansion and integer overflow in ezxml parser (courtesy of @esadowski4) [GHSA-55r2-34wg-8mv9] Fix "silent" Windows installation failing at 75% in most cases [#2960] Fix a crash during boot when using UEFI:NTFS on Snapdragon X based ARM64 platforms [#2934] Fix the first WUE option always being checked by default [#2965] Fix an infinite loop when using Windows ISOs that contain multiple WIMs Fix "Enable runtime UEFI media validation" checkbox not always being properly enabled Other WUE improvements/fixes for OneDrive removal and username validation (with thanks to @christian8641) [#2984, #2991] Download: Rufus 4.15 Beta 2 | 1.9 MB (Open Source) Links: Rufus Home Page | Project Page @GitHub | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
    • Tixati 3.43 by Razvan Serea Tixati is a free and easy to use BitTorrent client featuring detailed views of all seed, peer, and file transfer properties. Also included are powerful bandwidth charting and throttling capabilities, and a full DHT implementation. Tixati is one of the most advanced and flexible BitTorrent clients available. And unlike many other clients, Tixati contains NO SPYWARE, NO ADS, and NO GIMMICKS. Tixati portable version is meant to run on a USB flash drive or other portable media. It stores all its configuration files in the same folder as the executable binary files, and all file paths are stored in a format relative to the program executable folder. It is important you do not delete the "tixati_portable_mode.txt" file within the executables folder. This file is what triggers Tixati to run in portable mode. (The executable binaries are actually the same as the standard edition binaries.) When running the portable edition from a USB flash drive, especially one that is formatted in FAT16/FAT32, you may experience some lag when initially loading a new transfer. This is because initializing and allocating large files on flash-based media consumes a greater amount of time and resources compared to a conventional hard-drive. Tixati has the following features: detailed views of all aspects of the swarm, including peers, pieces, files, and trackers support for magnet links, so no need to download .torrent files if a simple magnet-link is available super-efficient peer choking/unchoking algorithms ensure the fastest downloads peer connection encryption for added security full DHT (Distributed Hash Table) implementation for trackerless torrents, including detailed message traffic graphs and customizable event logging advanced bandwidth charting of overall traffic and per-transfer traffic, with separate classification of protocol and file bytes, and with separate classification of outbound traffic for trading and seeding highly flexible bandwidth throttling, including trading/seeding proportion adjustment and adjustable priority for individual transfers and peers bitfield graphs that show the completeness of all downloaded files, what pieces other peers have available, and the health of the overall swarm customizable event logging for each download, and individual event logs for all peers within the swarm expert local file management functions which allow you to move files to a different partition even while downloading is still in progress 100% compatible with the BitTorrent protocol Windows and Linux-GTK native versions available Tixati 3.43 changelog: Several major DHT improvements Added several screening heuristics to filter malicious DHT nodes, prevent Sybil floods Rewrote DHT search algorithms to add support for multi-path lookups Improved DHT logging, more details in several error messages Extended timeout lengths for outgoing queries over I2P Added incoming query / response per second to DHT table status display Updated Regex engine to PCRE2 Faster Search function, scans channel user profiles in much less time Fixed problems with file name parsing and date handling in RSS Faster and more accurate RSS filtering and episode number detection Several optimizations to global text processing functions, such as UTF-8 cleaning, line splitting, and token parsing Complete update of port-mapping UPNP/NAT-PMP engine, added PCP support, mapping over VPN support, and more Several refinements to default gateway detection on Windows / Android, which is used for port-mapping Support for IPv6 interface-scoped addresses, which is sometimes needed for IPv6 gateway detection and port mapping Full support for PCP port remapping, added backup zero-port query in case requested port is rejected New UPNP/NAT-PMP Monitor in Help > Diagnostics New reflected local port/location tracker that analyzes DHT replies to detect true port/location and NAT mapping type New TCP/UDP Ports monitor in Help > Diagnostics, with several statistic and information tabs, and a detailed event log Calculated/reflected local port is now used for port parameter in tracker queries and peer handshake Fixed several problems with Linux Wayland compatibility Completely replaced tray icon functions in Linux, new SNI implementation is now the default with GSI backup Implemented full DBus-Menu server to be used by new SNI tray icon implementation Replaced Linux tray balloon notification DBus client Rewrote auto-shutdown DBus interface for Linux Rewrote sleep inhibit DBus interface for Linux Dropped deprecated Linux dbus-glib dependencies Completely new Windows asynchronous file handling, now using IOCP model with several block-alignment optimizations Better handling of system network resets and interface down/up cycles Added option to fully clear configuration in Settings > Import/Export Remember last option checkboxes when using Import/Export Fixed minor I2P incoming connection routing problems Much faster I2P vanity host name finder Much faster channel user vanity key finder Raised length limit for torrent tracker remote failure messages to 120 from 64 Fixed problems setting download location on a torrent before the meta info is resolved Added location/MOC paths to category pane tooltips Several minor Web Interface fixes Refinements to static and scrolling ellipsizing layout routines Several fixes and improvements to single and multi-line text edit controls Many other minor fixes throughout the user interface A major overhaul of the Android framework has also been done: API target raised to 35, page alignment set to 16K Rewrote all inset processing routines Full rewrite of foreground service, application, and main activity objects New permission request routines Added multi-cast lock request before UPNP/LPDP discovery operations Fixed file permission and locking problems when loading .torrent from web browsers Fixed problems with Z-ordering of modal / non-modal and popup windows Fixed handling of back gesture on newer OS Added status bar icon adjustment based on status bar background color Added option in Settings > UI > Behavior to continue running in tray when task removed from recents App can be closed by swiping away notification

    • 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.
