Yup or enter Mount Hyjal or Black temple.

Sweet, I checked this morning to see if the patch had gone live and there was a massive amount of ppls qued up for Magisters Terace, hopefully the servers are back up and a few ppl want to make a start on MT Hyj or BT after work. I think im more excited about seeing those places. Running around getting keyed or attuned always puts me off. I prefer to stroll in free and easy :)

so we had fun in Sunwell last night, Trash is ALOT different than in previous instances, ALOT harder, and requires you to pay attention and not have 5 people just afk auto follow through trash.

15+ trash pulls to get to first boss Kalec, then 2 to get to Brut, then none for last boss, BUT all trash respawns after 2 hours, and will not stop respawning until 3rd boss is killed..........which means no more chain pulling bosses :)

heh after I ran MT5 my group checked out sunwell, those arcane robots(the one on the first pull) hit me for 6K, ouch.

Also ran hyjal last night but only got wave 7/8 in winterchill trash, mostly cause addons were still screwed up.

On Sunwell

Kaelgos > me. We're clearly being sent back to farm T6 for a while. Trash has the feeling of SSC "omg you die now" or the pre-kael stuff from way back in the day. I'm sure once we learn it it'll be a fairly quick and easy farm but hearing it's going to be respawning until we kill Sisters is pretty annoying. It's like we're back with SSC 1.0 45-minute respawn nonsense.

On BT Bugs

We gave up and went back to BT after the first trash respawn and cleared half-way. Things noticed:

Supremus is HUGE and his hitbox scaled to match - it makes onyxia's look small. He has a Tiny Reliquary-style "target circle" though. As he was turning to hateful strike his foot would pass over me and I was still only in range of half the melee. When he died it took us a good minute and a half to find where to stan to loot him. This has got to be a bug.

I sat out for this fight but I could hear over vent that we weren't getting warnings about Doom which lead to constructs in the raid. Apparently watching for the "You gunna die" debuff is hard-mode without a mod. screaming at you.

Akama seemed unchanged. He's still stupidly easy.

Reliquary phase two has no rune shield or deaden?certainly another bug. We still had rogues manage to miss spirit strike! WTF?

10 badges, 50g. I no longer have to do dailies to pay for raiding any more. Life is great. With any luck the issues will be fixed tonight.On Hyjalb>

I heard from friends in other guilds that Hyjal has been nerfed (AoE abilities have a smaller target area) and they've buffed the hell out of the rep-gain (>5k for a full clear). Assuming you convert badges to gems/nethers/vortexes: Hyjal could end up being a better rate of gold/hour than doing daily quests (52g from bosses +20g from trash + 75g from selling a gem) for about 2-hours of play.On Applicantsb>

Sometimes I wonder if the people looking for a raid spot in our guild are just messing with us.

  • 3 greens? Check.
  • 2/5 Imbued Nethereave? Check.
  • "Most of kara" end game experience? Check.
  • 2/5 Season 1 + vindicator bracers? Check.
  • No enchants anywhere? Check.
  • Have to leave an hour before the end of scheduled raid time because you're 13 and your parents don't let you stay up? Check and double check.
  • Want to "raid an get phat lootz lol"? Check.

Perfect! Welcome to the guild, please come collect your free tier 6.

lol @ evn

I dunno we did Kara last night and it just seemed "harder". But I know we didn't have the top notch dps people on, and took new people/alts. But damn I dunno if it was just the lag but everything was going slow. Like everything's health was bump uped. I dunno it was probally the lag, that made it seem that way, but I did hear from others in SSC/TK that trash/bosses seemed different.

I'm hoping to get a MT run going and hopefully this time the world server won't crash.

Cleared Magister's Terrace today in both normal and heroic mode. Heroic mode was surprisingly easy except for the 3rd boss (Priestess Delarissa) which is a very annoying and random encounter. Kael'thas wasn't much harder in heroic than in normal mode. We only wiped once on him because our tank got one-shotted by a 44k pyroblast from Kael. Got him on 2nd try and I got my epic chest (Tunic of the Ranger Lord).

I finally completed it on normal, haven't tried Heroic yet, but I don't it's much hard. 3rd boss only thing I'm worried about. Don't think kael will give me a problem, I'm always bringing high dps people, so we should be able to burn that sheild quickly.

*double post*

Was going to edit in, but server is down atm, Eldre'Thalas is currently at 98% and with dailies reseted and with are high late night/early morning crowd should be in phase2, as soon as server comes back online. Where's everyone elses server?

Bloodboil without functional threat meters wasn't worth the trouble so we went to Hyjal: just confirming the first three seem way easier than I remember (haven't been in a while). Maybe it's placebo, maybe it's rediculous regen for healers, maybe illidari council has made us really good at not standing in stuff. All the same it felt nerfed.

Hoping to get a group to do magtheridon this weekend just to see how ti goes.

I need another 20 slot bag.

I got the +12 def enchant from heroic MT today. I wonder what that scales like at level 19...

You'll want to slow down with the dps on the 2nd boss in heroic. He spawns the adds at certain % of his HP and they come in packs of 2. So if you dps him down too quickly you'll get overrun by adds and get too many debuffs from killing them. Since the debuff stacks you'll want to take turns on dps-ing the adds so that one person doesn't get too many stacks.

I've just respecced my DPS Palladin to Holy/Healer and I hate it :(

I've wasted my honour buying healing roled armour :(

ffs...

Weeks of BG wasted.

What do you guys think of Tank Palladins??

Well you have probably already been made fun of for being a DPS Paladin. Just look at it this way, as a tank paladin you _just_ might get into a group lol.

@Audio: Probally been mentioned 1000 times already in thread, but what's your bar, and quest and map, and clock, and....all addons? That's exactly something I been looking for.

It was actually Spookie's UI!

https://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?show...amp;p=589228845

He then posted it in a pack on the same page

https://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?show...amp;p=589229978

Page - https://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?show...812&st=2775

On installing though, not everything looked right - I had to spend an hour or so changing things about. Every addon I use is in Spookies pack though, I just recommend you get WUU - WoW UI Updater - http://wuu.vagabonds.info/ , To update them all before playing!

Especially with patch 2.4 just out :yes:

    • ALL versions or ALL SUPPORTED versions? Neowin does it again.
    • But the reality is it will work for people's needs, and they don't care about the technology that makes it. Clearly not everyone's needs, but that low end space where personal laptops were only used to type emails, watch content and browse websites, but they didn't want to do that on a small screen device. Heck, writing that out I can now see the connection and reason it'll do so well. Apple is about experience. If the experience is bad, they don't release it. Low end Windows laptop manufacturers up until this point have not taken that into consideration ever before, so slow laggy usage with brittle slimey plastic shells were common. I hope that the low end space at least creates better physical products that last a bit longer, and if Microsoft get their act together, they could also have a solid OS on such low end hardware that would actually make the experience work for what the hardware was intended for. The fact that the CPU is a "cellphone", sorry mobile phone processor is irrelevant. It's about the experience, and so far, that sounds quite solid.
    • Hello, Bonjour is Apple's implementation of a multicast-DNS service, which allows devices running Apple's software and/or hardware to find each other on your local network.  I believe the Windows version was last updated around 2010. If you do not need it, you can stop and disable the Bonjour service in the Services Control Manager (filename: SERVICES.MSC).  Once you have done that, the operating system will no longer attempt to load the service.

    • This AMD RX 9070 16GB GPU that performs close to Nvidia 5070 is under $600 by Sayan Sen With the memory shortage that's prevalent nowadays, discounts are super-hard to get. As such we post good deals whenever they pop up. Recently, we covered a few great discounts on SSDs wherein you can get a 4TB TeamGroup NVMe PCIe Gen4 drive for just $400 thanks to a special coupon. If you want a faster product but don't need all that capacity, you can also opt for Samsung's 990 PRO 2TB that is on sale for its lowest price in over three months. Let's say though that you are on the hunt for a 1440p gaming card. In that case AMD's RX 9070 non-XT can help, and with its 16GB VRAM, you can also run AI models locally without worrying about bottlenecking (check out our recent 9070 GRE reviews for gaming and productivity to get an idea). The PowerColor Reaper variant of the RX 9070 is currently on sale for just $580 which is a very good price in the current state of affairs (purchase link under the specs table down below). The Reaper cooler on this 9070 uses a triple‑fan design with ring‑blade fans, paired with premium dual ball bearings to extend lifespan and reduce friction. "Intelligent" fan control allows the fans to remain idle at lower temperatures, only spinning up when the GPU is under load. A nickel‑plated copper base makes direct contact with both the GPU and memory modules, helping to spread heat evenly. PowerColor also applies Honeywell PTM7950 phase‑change thermal interface material (TIM), which fills microscopic gaps between the die and heatsink for more efficient thermal transfer. The fan shroud is shorter in height as the firm has made it such that it can be used in certain SFF (small form factor) cases. The technical specifications of the Reaper RX 9070 are given in the table below: Specification Value Stream Processors 3584 Units Video Memory 16GB GDDR6 Memory Speed 20.0 Gbps Memory Interface 256-bit Engine Clock Game Clock: up to 2070 MHz Boost Clock: up to 2520 MHz Bus Standard PCI Express 5.0 x16 Display Connectors 1 x HDMI 2.1b, 3 x DisplayPort 2.1a Maximum Resolution DisplayPort: 7680 × 4320 HDMI: 7680 × 4320 Board Dimensions 289mm × 111mm × 41mm 304mm × 127mm × 42mm (with bracket) Slot 2 Minimum System Power Requirement 600W Power Connectors Two 8-pin PCI Express Get the PowerColor Reaper RX 9070 at the links below (you get only a 90-day warranty on Woot): PowerColor Reaper Radeon RX 9070 16GB Graphics Card (RX9070 16G-A): $579.99 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US) (Was: $700) PowerColor Reaper Radeon RX 9070 16GB Graphics Card (RX9070 16G-A): $559.99 (Sold and Shipped by Woot US) Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified.
