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

    • Windows 11 gets new audio improvements in the latest builds

      By RejZoR · Posted

      Nudge me when they bring back hardware audio acceleration so I can get my EAX 5 back. We've evolved graphics to real-time path tracing, but regressed audio some 15 years back in time with this stupid software audio stack.
    • Ocenaudio 3.19.4

      By Copernic · Posted

      Ocenaudio 3.19.4 by Razvan Serea  Ocenaudio is a full featured, fast and easy to use audio and music editor. It is the ideal software for people who need to edit and analyze audio files without complications. Ocenaudio also has powerful features that will please more advanced users. To assist ocenaudio development, a powerful toolset of audio editing, analysis and manipulation called Ocen Framework was created. ocenaudio is also based on Qt framework, a well known library for cross-platform development. Cross-platform support ocenaudio is available for all major operating systems: Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. Native applications are generated for each platform from a common source, in order to achieve excelent performance and seamless integration with the operating system. All versions of ocenaudio have a uniform set of features and the same graphical interface, so the skills you learn in one platform can be used in the others. VST plugins support Ocenaudio supports VST (Virtual Studio Technology) plugins, giving its users access to numerous effects. Like the native effects, VST effects can use real-time preview to aide configuration. Real-time preview of effects Applying effects such as EQ, gain and filtering is an important part of audio editing. However, it is very tricky to get the desired result by adjusting the controls configuration alone: you must listen the processed audio. To ease the configuration of audio effects, ocenaudio has a real time preview feature: you hear the processed signal while adjusting the controls. The effect configuration window also includes a miniature view of the selected audio signal. You can navigate on this miniature view in the same way as you do on the main interface, selecting parts that interest you and listening to the effect result in real time. Multiselection for delicate editions To speed up complex audio files editing, ocenaudio includes multi-selection. With this amazing tool, you can simultaneously select different portions of an audio file and listen, edit or even apply an effect to them. For example, if you want to normalize only the excerpts of an interview where the interviewee is talking, just select them and apply the effect. Eficient edition of large files With ocenaudio, there is no limit to the length or the quantity of the audio files you can edit. Using an advanced memory management system, the application keeps your files open without wasting any of your computer's memory. Even in files several hours long, common editing operations such as copy, cut or paste happen almost instantly. Fully featured spectrogram Besides offering an incredible waveform view of your audio files, ocenaudio has a powerful and complete spectrogram view. In this view, you can analyze the spectral content of your audio signal with maximum clarity. Advanced users will be surprised to find that the spectrogram settings are applied in real time. The display is updated immediately when altering features such as the number of frequency bands, window type and size and dynamic range of the display. Ocenaudio 3.19.4 changelog: Adds fallback fonts so every language and symbol displays correctly Improves autosave and session recovery stability Improves region navigation and display Fixes a crash when the level meter is used on displays with a scaling greater than 200% Fixes memory corruption when using the silence selection tools Fixes crashes when closing a file while effects are still being processed Fixes a freeze when applying effects to many files at once (macOS) Fixes crashes related to audio devices on Windows Fixes invalid file names when exporting regions whose label is used as the file name Other bug fixes and improvements Download: Ocenaudio 64-bit | Portable | ~40.0 MB (Freeware) Download: Ocenaudio for Linux and Mac OS View: Ocenaudio Homepage | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware

    • Waymo recalls self-driving software after cars enter closed freeway work zones

      By ExecutiveFunction404 · Posted

      This got me thinking, would you rather a self driving car prioritise protecting its passengers or everyone else? I'd choose the one that keeps me and my kids safest. At some point, these cars have to make those choices already, don't they? Wonder if we have a way to find out what way they lean.
    • Google is opening the world's first AI museum in Los Angeles

      The proportion (or number of iterations) has nothing to with this aspect of Copyright I am describing. In short, it doesn't matter how many times the manager tells you to change something or how. Your work product is always YOURS until and unless you then assign that to the person representing the client/company, usually for financial compensation -- either in salary or as a subcontract work for hire payment. if iterations determined copyright, then businesses would have learned to just keep making changes until they could claim they owned the copyright, without having to compensate the artist for their work. And that would be BAD. The only place where the amount of changes does have a role is in how much does a human modify a previous public domain work (from any source) before it is considered fair use or their own work, etc. For example, if a human makes substantial changes to a public domain (re: AI, by definition) work, then they can then claim that derivative work as their own...but NEVER the original version, of course. That's why anyone can make a movie about Dracula, for example, as long as it is based on the public domain novel, but not if they take new ideas from copyrighted movies made afterwards. As one of the people who personally advised the US Copyright Office on their recent ruling on these very issues, be assured that I specifically used the terminology precisely -- though I made it simple enough for laymen to understand it. If I made this confusing by doing so, I apologize. But, to be clear regarding your assumption that I would agree to your second statement that I quoted above -- the answer is NO. If AI does the work, no matter how much "direction" you give it, it cannot be copyrighted. All AI generated content is in the Public Domain and therefore the copyright cannot be assigned to ANYONE, even you -- until and unless substantial modifications are made to it BY A HUMAN BEING (yourself or a contracted artist/writer/etc.) and then that copyright on the derivative work is legally (in writing) transferred to you. This is a critical distinction. And it is important that people, especially AI sloppers, understand this. For example, YouTube is not paying AI slop generators for the copyright, etc. of their AI slop. What YouTube is doing is sharing AD REVENUE for permission to publish your AI slop. Copyright/ownership/rights never come into it. Importantly, that means that anyone can copy any AI slopware on YouTube, etc. and rehost it anywhere they want, even back on YouTube, and there is nothing legal that YouTube can do about it with regards to copyright protections, ownership, DMCA, etc. Anyone is legally free to use any AI slopware in any way they want. When this ruling was pending, I warned Disney legal of all of this before they did their OpenAI deal -- that it would literally dilute their entire IP portfolio forever. They ignored that warning for the PR and stock bump. But that is why, when the ruling came down last year, Disney quickly extricated themselves from that OpenAI deal, even eating the initial upfront fees -- followed closely by OpenAI ending their entire AI video generating business model. They adjusted their PR release dates to make this less obvious to shareholders, of course. Phew. I hope that this clears up the key distinctions for you and anyone reading. If you have any additional questions or even hypotheticals about AI and Copyright, please feel free to ask.
