Well I had the 5k for mount training, but got 2 upgrades (Nightbane chest, and badge legs) which I had to gem and enchant. So down to 4400g, so time to start doing dailies more frequently and mining a bit more, try to get that up 5500-6k which should cover upgrades, repairs, and the mount.

Ello,

I want to start playing WoW but on the US servers but I am based in the UK. My friend in the US has given me a 10 day trial code for the US server which I am currently using.

I tried activating the account using my credit card however it said both of my cards are not valid so I guess you can only do that using a US credit card fair enough. I can get my friend in the US to buy me the game but do I need a US credit card to start the subscription ?

I'd appreciate any help on this!

The game changed too much for me..

I restarted a fresh new character about 8 months ago and when I finally hit 70 again (3rd times a charm) .. just seemed still kinda of boring to me still

though won't make the same mistake again.. kept this character just sitting there and waiting..

having a 70 druid on a pvp server rocked even it was feral :p

Though I like reading this thread to see what new things have been conquered though, far less time just looking then actually doing :)

Its been roughly 4 months since I logged in WoW. After school I'm probably going to get back into the game. Along with two jobs I think it will keep me busy - seeing how most of my friends are out of town - as well content with my vacation time. Out of curiosity how are mages? I played one to 70, got the welfare gear, and had fun but seeing how i missed a handful of patches are they still playable? Or is there any recommendations of what is fun to play to 70?

Ello,

Up until recently i was playing on the US server, whilst being based in the UK with no issues, so it can definitely be done.

Are you using a solo card? If so, you cant use em. But i am definitely sure you can use a uk card, unless they have changed it in the last 2/3 months.

However, you cannot use the uk game pre-paid cards. You might just have to get your friend to buy you those and pay him back! ;)

Mages are fine, haven't really changed alot.. Except for a few things like, ALL mages get iceblock, we get 3 charges on our mana gem now, and we can summon tables which give food/water, instead of having to make a million of the stuff.

I have always played a mage, and with full T6 (minus Sunwell of course) I still love playing my mage everyday.

I got a friend in the US to get the game for me and got the game registered. Only thing is that the postcode input for the subscription isn't big enough. I'm I meant to use the first or last part of my postcode for the subscription payment ?

Anyone here tried the Fire Nova totem bug (it's more of a lag issue, tho...)?

You put the totem, wait till there's 1-1.5 seconds left till it fires, and you log out.

The totem becomes neutral for a second, and damages everyone no matter what faction they are. :)

Good for killing lowbies at the AH

Nice one, I thought that was just a bugg. I saw someone do that in town the other day... I was like "WTF" just happened that level 1 just got owned by a fire totem !!!

Might have to try that tonight for some fun.

@Adamb10

Is there any chance you can upload your pitbull settings? I like how it looks, and would like to use it. I tryed to get Caith's to work for me, but couldnt' so hoping maybe yours will.

Here you go

    • As I've been usually saying lately - we all can thank "AI" for this.
    • Friday Windows 11 preview builds are here. Insiders in the Experimental (formerly Dev) and Beta Channel can download builds 26300.8697 and 26220.8690. My Windows11 device on the Preview Channel just got 26220.8728. My guess is this build is a nightly update from 26220.8690.
    • Traffic has a surprisingly unexpected impact on your surroundings by Sayan Sen Image by Radik 2707 via Pexels A collaborative study by researchers from several Israeli institutions found that everyday pollution from traffic and industrial activity measurably changed the atmospheric electric field over the Tel Aviv metropolitan area, providing new evidence of how human activity can influence the lower atmosphere. The research was led by Dr. Roy Yaniv of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and the Gertner Institute at Sheba Medical Center, Dr. Assaf Hochman of the Fredy & Nadine Herrmann Institute of Earth Sciences at the Hebrew University, and Prof. Yoav Yair of Reichman University. The study also involved Itay Froomer, a student from Hadera High School and the Israeli Museum of Medicine and Science (Technoda), who carried out the work as part of the Ministry of Education's 5-unit physics research track. The researchers focused on the atmospheric electric field under fair-weather conditions. Even in the absence of storms, a weak electric field naturally exists between Earth's surface and the atmosphere. One of the main ways scientists measure this field is through the Potential Gradient (PG), which is the inverse of the vertical component of the electric field. PG is a key part of the global electric circuit, a planet-wide system of electrical currents maintained by thunderstorms and electrified clouds around the world. Scientists have long known that the atmospheric electric field can be influenced by factors ranging from large-scale atmospheric processes to local weather conditions such as dust, fog and clouds. Human-made pollution is also known to play a role, but understanding exactly how urban emissions affect the electric field close to the ground has remained an area of ongoing research. To investigate this relationship, the team analyzed measurements from a newly installed electric field mill, an instrument used to continuously monitor the strength of the atmospheric electric field. The instrument was installed at the Center for Technological Education (Roter House) in Holon and became operational in August 2024. It was funded by Israel's Ministry of Education and the Holon municipality. The electric field mill forms part of a broader monitoring network that includes nearby meteorological stations and air-quality monitoring sites. This allowed researchers to compare electric field measurements with detailed weather data and pollution records to better understand what was driving changes in the Potential Gradient. The study focused on two major urban pollutants: fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and nitrogen oxides (NOx), both commonly produced by vehicle traffic and industrial activity. PM2.5 refers to microscopic airborne particles small enough to remain suspended in the atmosphere for extended periods, while NOx is a group of gases released during fuel combustion. Researchers examined daily, weekly and seasonal patterns in the atmospheric electric field and compared them with changes in pollutant concentrations. Their analysis revealed a clear relationship between NOx levels and changes in the Potential Gradient, particularly during morning and evening rush hours when traffic emissions were at their highest. “What we observe is a direct physical link between emission peaks and electrical variability,” explained Dr. Roy Yaniv. “NOx reduces atmospheric conductivity very quickly, so the electric field responds almost instantaneously during traffic rush hours.” Atmospheric conductivity describes how easily electrical charges move through the air. According to the researchers, nitrogen oxides rapidly alter this conductivity, causing a near-immediate response in the electric field. PM2.5, however, was associated with a delayed response. The researchers attributed this difference to the particles' longer atmospheric residence time, meaning they remain in the atmosphere for longer periods, as well as their different microphysical interactions with surrounding air and atmospheric components. The study also identified a pronounced "weekend effect." In Israel, traffic volumes and some industrial activity decline significantly on Fridays and Saturdays. During these periods, concentrations of both NOx and PM2.5 dropped, and corresponding changes were observed in the atmospheric electric field. “The weekend signal demonstrates just how sensitive the electric field is to changes in human activity,” the researchers noted. “When emissions decline, the electrical environment adjusts at once, providing a high-resolution indicator of urban atmospheric conditions.” The findings showed that pollution levels can influence not only the chemical composition of the atmosphere but also its electrical properties. Researchers said the results strengthened the case for using atmospheric electricity as an additional tool for environmental monitoring, particularly in densely populated urban areas where anthropogenic, or human-caused, influences are most pronounced. The study also pointed to potential public health applications. By combining air-quality measurements with observations of atmospheric electricity, researchers said they could gain a more complete picture of how urban atmospheric conditions change over time. “Integrating air-quality data with electric-field measurements gives us a clearer picture of how the lower atmosphere evolves moment by moment,” the researchers added. “It’s a framework that can support both scientific insight and practical environmental decision-making.” Beyond the scientific findings, the project highlighted a collaboration between universities, public institutions and secondary education. Researchers said the work demonstrated how students could take part in real-world environmental research while contributing to studies of air quality, atmospheric processes and their potential effects on society.

    • We aren't even at the all-star game and Microsoft is talking about an update that will most likely be released during the World Series if not after. A lot can happen in the world between now and the 2026 World Series, including the 2026 FIFA Cup. Tell me about it again after the FIFA Cup is concluded. That should allow plenty of time to prepare for it.
    • Great, tell me when I have a "Bad Pool Caller" elsewhere not in Windoze.
