Seeing how it hasn't been asked what are the 3 blue bottoms bottom left?

They swap gear for now, I'll replace them with add-ons to to swap around my UI depending on what I'm doing once I have the time to write one.

From top to bottom:

  • Naked: because I hate being inspected when I'm in town.
  • Farming: Random DPS gear.
  • Healing: My typical raid healing set.

I still have to manually /cg wear [sr|reg|stam] for fights where those are appropriate but there is an addon for either closetgnome or bigwigs that will automatically swap gear depending on which boss you're fighting.

That's closetgnome? I been looking for a gear changer, that isn't dependent on fubar/titan panel. Add some buttons to my UI.

And the best KJ was 10% by an unknown person from an unknown guild. But the best confirmed attempt is by Deus Vox is 34%. Wonder who's going to get him?

Game over. All bosses dead.

Had ZA tonight, took a prot pally, downed Jan'Alai, and got a few attempts in at Hex Lord. Had no mage, so had to kill 2 adds. 2 attempts best one at 42%. Probally down him next week, 4th time for guild, and take some shot at Jin.

Hex is the step up in difficulty for ZA bosses, tho if you have decent healers and a varied Raid setup then you should see him go down. Jins in some ways easier tho has 1 or 2 kinda ruff phases. The phase where he turns into the hawk again and does the whirlwinds will probs be where you wipe a few times as people learn to move

I found Hex to be rather easy, though I have to agree Jin is a right pain in the arse. He's quite easy until you get to Lynx when he proceeds to maul your raid. Then it's a struggle through the Dragonhawk phase till he's dead.

I'd have to agree, I didn't see anything major hard with Hex Lord. Burn the add(s) that you need to kill. Keep the rest CC, and burn boss as fast as you can. From a tank's point of view didnt' seem hard, tank Lord or tank an add or two. From the two attempts this defiently seems like a healer fight.

My guild had killed Lord 3 times with a full tier 5 group and Jin twice with same group. Had some drama awhile back and they all left. We haven't even got back into 25 mans, yet slowly rebuilding. But for alot of us more active raiders, Kara gives us nothing but badges, and duplicate items we can gem/enchant different way (using tank stuff for Hydross set). So I think being able to get Lord down to 42% second try with a Kara/ZA group is awesome. I defiently think if we can down Jan'alai next week (probally not going to have a pally tank), then I can defiently see Lord going down. And hopefully get some solid attempts in on Jin.

Leotheras the Blind is down (first time).

Unfortunately I got disconnected while I had a demon on me. When I came back I was already dead ... bummer.

It's better to be disconnected and lose the demon fight than alive. Being DC'd leaves you standing there helpless even if you get possessed. You die when the boss does.

Way back in the day our strategy used to include "ALT+F4 if you fail at demons". Back when he had the extra HP (5 million?) we simply didn't have enough DPS to kill mind-controlled people and still make the enrage (of course, losing someone to demons often meant we didn't have enough anyway -- but at least we could try to zerg him down through enrage). I recall having to wear a partial spell damage set to kill my demons and to help get Leo down during demon phase: It's one of the few fights where healers actually attacked the boss and it was nice to be doing so much at once.

Grats though. He was one of the best fights in SSC/TK.

Are you playing on vista? I had issues with patching if I didn't use the "run as administrator" option.

The blizzard support forums are a better place to get help with problems like this.

Hex is the step up in difficulty for ZA bosses...

Agreed, although apparently he's been nerfed. In his original version he would soul-drain from the start of the encounter - now he doesn't start until 80%.

Soul drain acts as a soft-enrage sort of like Gruul's grows or Gorefiend's doom blossums/ghosts. In the original version it was pretty common to leave as many adds CC'd as possible while you killed the boss in order to stay ahead of the enrage. Now you can kill them all and have no real worries about not having enough health to survive the random AOE or Spirit Bolts.

The biggest cause of wipes was a CC breaking during spirit bolts: you can now remove that from the encounter entirely.

From a healer's perspective it was mostly "Did I roll an AOE healing class?" If you did, win. If not, hope the other healer did. Cheesing it with Black Temple shadow-resist gear is another way to win, but when that's an option you've probably stopped doing hexlord anyway.

thankyou for you help yesterday, i tryed that but the problem still happened

ive trying runing the laucher in "run as administrator" by goin to

right click on the shortcut on the desktop> blizzard downloader in run as administrator and other applications

im currently downloading a patch from the "World of Warcraft Classic Client Download"

In what order did you install? Did you physically insert the discs? or download off the internet? Did you also purchase the burning Crusade?

I know in the past there was a certain order you had to apply the patches

I recently installed the game myself and installed in order.. of:

World of Warcraft 2.0 Pre-BC client

World of Warcraft : The burning crusade

patch 2.3 (~ 700 megs)

patch 2.4 (~ 200 megs)

After that it worked..

I am not sure about install disc's I downloaded my off the website, a bit slow but it got the job done

Hope this helps

My only wish was they would make it 'harder' to obtain, like raising the requirement - At least a level 70 Character should be required, perhaps even 2.

No thanks. I'd rather blizz don't subscribe to the Ninty book of how to unlock content.

When I've just bought an expansion I'd like to use at least some of the features right away!

Getting a little frustrated, guild are doing well in ZA, Gruul, Maggy but don't seem inclined to give TK or SSC much of a go :( There seems to be a core of 10 or so players that are keen (that's why we've done well in ZA), but getting the numbers for harder 25mans is hard.

If you can survive till Wotlk then that 10man core will be ideal for all the 10man tier raids.

    • 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.
    • 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.

    • Are they marketed as an entry into astronomy or astrophotography? I do astrophotography. With big rigs, lots of computers, cables and headaches. I love it. And by learning this ridiculously complex hobby, I’ve learned about the objects I’m shooting. Astronomy followed from photography.
    • Microsoft confirms Recycle Bin bug across all versions of Windows by Usama Jawad A couple of days ago, we reported that the latest Patch Tuesday update has seemingly resulted in a lot of issues for many users, including OneDrive and Dropbox access problems, BitLocker recovery lockouts, and BSODs. Although Microsoft is yet to acknowledge these bugs, it has confirmed another, relatively smaller issue across all supported versions of Windows. In an update on its Windows Release Health Dashboard, Microsoft has confirmed that after installing June's Patch Tuesday update (KB5094126), you'll experience unexpected behavior when leveraging Recycle Bin. Basically, when you attempt to delete an item from the Recycle Bin, the confirm dialog will show you the internal file name of that content rather than the actual name. For example, the file may be named abc.png, but the confirm dialog will ask if you're sure that you want to permanently delete $Rxxxxx.png from the Recycle Bin. This is pretty much it for the scope of the bug itself; it just displays the wrong name in the confirm dialog. The correct name will be shown in the list view of the Recycle Bin and if you restore the file, it will return with the correct name as well. This issue affects pretty much all supported versions of Windows client and server, including: Client: Windows 11, version 26H1; Windows 11, version 25H2; Windows 11, version 24H2; Windows 11, version 23H2; Windows 10, version 22H2; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2021; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2019; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSB 2016 Server: Windows Server 2025; Windows Server 2022; Windows Server 2019; Windows Server 2016; Windows Server 2012 R2; Windows Server 2012 As things currently stand, Microsoft is working on a concrete solution that will be released in a "future" Windows update. It remains to be seen if the firm will wait till the next Patch Tuesday or roll out an out-of-band (OOB) fix. The good news is that commercial customers can deploy a workaround right now, but they will have to reach out to Microsoft Support for Business for additional details.
