It was better than anything else on the AH at my level for when something gets up in my face, so.. I used it..

Trust me guys, I know being a melee hunter is a bad thing.

Actually its not the best thing for you. Anything of the monkey would be better. Since its in your offhand, even if it does proc its for reduced dmg. Also, raptor strike is only a MH attack so all you do is auto attack with it.

Stats stats stats, that's rule one.

When I get back to Org or UC from The Swamp of Sorrow (where I'm at right now.. harvesting plants).. I'll be sure to look for a sword or something of the monkey, but as I said, damage wise, that's been the best weapon for my level, damage wise, on the AH for quite some time.. though the other night night I did ding 43.. so maybe I'll have better luck.

Your dmg comes from your bow, if you have to melee then you're doing it wrong. That weapon doesnt increase your ranged dmg at all, so that's what I mean. Obviously its nice dmg, but only for melee, which you should never rely on as a hunter. If you got something of the monkey you'd increase your ranged dmg.

I really need to go back and finish leveling up my Mage.... got to about level 51/52 if I can remember.

Been off the subscription for months though and I'm pretty skint this month, so I think that'll do enough to prevent me reactivating for now :laugh:

Yeah, I know.

Bronzebeard's AH is pretty screwed up economically.. level 15 items cost a couple gold, and etc.. that's why it's so hard to find a good green or something for my level that does decent damage.. and as far as damage I rely more on my bow, but I have nice damage when something gets up in my face..but, by then I usually trigger intimidation, and stun the mob, let the pet regain the aggro, back off.. and then use my bow.

That's fair. I see Soul Link is going to be nerfed for the 3rd or 4th time now. Down to 15% now, although they finally lowered it on the talent tree as well. I've been affliction for most of my warlock's career and loved it. I've tried the other builds, but the pve destruction / shadow mage spec bored me and demonology feels out of place in group pve.

I was really hoping for an affliction talent to convert spell crit (and possibly spell haste) to damage or some other method to utilize spell crit since it goes to waste on affliction. But then again, they are changing a lot about the different stats so maybe it will show up elsewhere. Like maybe pure spell damage gear will be more available.

Bonuses for +spirit has me scratching my head as well...

Why didn't you just sell that dagger for a nice sum of gold?

If no one seems interested, just wait a few days!

I've been trying to sell the Cobalt Crusher for about six days for 40 gold, when the median price on AH's is 59.

No one will buy it, if no one will buy a blue for 19 gold off, whats to make me think that a purple will sell?.. Not much.

... You do know allakhazam's median price is worthless?

It all depends on the server and demand. Our server, Silvermoon, is the most overpriced and imbalanced PvE server in Europe and you won't even fetch 40 Gold for that here.

You can always advertise it as a twink weapon in trade chat, then you might find some sucker. But you really need to lower the price big time.

I remember the first time I did sfk on my hunter. The Shadowfang dropped and I saw it as a cool weapon.

Later on I found out it would sell for 800g+

It pays (literally) to search random things that drop, not just items, but almost anything that you don't already know what its use is.

Example; Questing in Zangarmarsh you'll notice a whole bunch of Strange spores will drop and at face value are worthless. However, if you save them, cook them into Sporeling Snacks and either consume them (well, they are pet food, but.. yeah) or sell them you will be gaining either gold and/or stats from doing nothing but looting (and cooking). :]

Another good example is if you're a miner and have the chance to do Hyjal with your guild, after downing Rage and Anetheron whilst making your way to the next Horde encampment Mining Nodes spawn for 10 minutes that drop Epic (which usually go to the guild bank) Blue and Green (I think?) Gems. Another thing that drops is Shattered Gem Fragments, each fragment sells for 1g50s and if your guildmates that are also mining don't know or just don't care, you can make bank rather easily. :D

Without revealing too much, I took up skinning 2 days ago and found a perfect area with some 'special' mobs.

Plus, when you add our inflated server economy, I can make around 100g every 15-20. minute.

Made 1200g yesterday.

:shiftyninja:

damn! mind telling me wheres the "special" mobs and spot? my alt is taking skinning :p

      draw.io Desktop 30.2.4 by Razvan Serea draw.io desktop is a downloadable security-first diagramming application that runs on Windows, MacOS and Linux. Creating diagrams in the desktop app doesn’t need an internet connection. This is useful when you are disconnected or when you must create diagrams in a highly secure environment, where data protection is of the utmost importance. When you use the draw.io desktop app, your diagrams will be stored on your local device. Because this is a stand-alone application, also designed to run offline, there are no interfaces to cloud storage platforms available. Of course, you can still store your diagrams in folders that are synchronised to your cloud storage if you wish. Easy-to-use diagram editor The draw.io apps work just like the office and drawing tools you are used to using. Drag and drop shapes from the shape libraries and drag to draw connectors between them. Drag connectors to add waypoints and set a precise shape and position, or let them reroute automatically. Double click and start typing to add a label to anything. Create tables and swimlane flows with a familiar tool. Style shapes and connectors with customisable palettes, sketch options, fonts and text formatting tools. Search for shapes, including in open-source icon libraries. Use our vast libraries of shapes and templates, organised into logical categories, to create a range of diagrams and infographics. Generate diagrams from text descriptions using our smart templates. Diagram faster with keyboard shortcuts. draw.io Desktop 30.2.4 changelog: Uses electron 42.4.1 Updates to draw.io core 30.2.4.

    • Microsoft will soon allow some users to block Copilot from analyzing their Office files

      By Usama Jawad96 · Posted

      Microsoft will soon allow some users to block Copilot from analyzing their Office files by Usama Jawad Microsoft Purview is a pretty useful data governance, security, and management service that allows customers to gain enhanced visibility and control over their content. It's meant for commercial customers, such as organizations that are storing data at scale. As AI continues to expand and infiltrate every corner of a firm, many are a bit conscious about the technology gaining access to their confidential data. Microsoft is now making a configuration change that will allow such customers to rest easy. Right now, users within an organization have the option to apply Purview sensitivity labels (when available) to secure certain files and label them as such. For example, if you apply the "Confidential" label on an Excel file, the file will be encrypted, and a "confidential" watermark will be applied to it. So, if this file is shared with anyone, they are aware that its access is supposed to be restricted. Up until now, Microsoft was allowing some connected experiences, like its AI services, to analyze files, regardless of their sensitivity label. This is of major concern to most organizations, as a recent example highlighted how confidential emails with data loss prevention (DLP) policies like privacy labels were being uploaded to Copilot for analysis. As such, Microsoft is updating an existing Purview data label sensitivity setting that prevents "some connected experiences that analyze content", from being blocked completely from doing this. The label isn't changing, but the blocking is now being enforced across all connected services (including Copilot and other AI tools), and now extends to Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. Files with the label applied already will get this enhancement automatically too once it becomes available. Microsoft has urged IT admins to inform their respective helpdesk and compliance teams, update internal documentation, and review sensitivity labels to ensure that they meet their respective compliance needs. This change is tagged as MC1297982 in the Message Center. General availability is scheduled to begin in a phased manner soon and will complete by the end of next month. That said, it is important to note that this only applies to commercial customers who have a license that allows them to use Purview.
