Gotta agree with ya Evn, can't wait for the reset, and this time I plan on trying to keep real life squared so I can get into a steady raiding guild from the start, instead of months behind like I did in BC. Maybe then I'll be able to see further content.

And ya really think my gear would let me perform there? I know Imba and other sites like the such, but I didn't believe it to much, figured I could handle T5 with no problem, but wasn't sure about T6. Anyways one of the guilds on my server just had a tank quit, trying to join that guild. There 4/5 and 4/9(or 5) so I dunno if they would take me, since people see 3 piece T4 and normally shoot me down right away.

We do pug BT/Hyjal on alts with gear roughly equal to that.

The really hard hitting bosses will tear you apart: Azgalore, Shatterer (paladin on coucil: whatever his name is) and maybe Bloodboil?I've never healed tanks on that so I can't say.

Other than that nothing in there hits terribly hard. You might have issues putting out appropriate threat and you'll definetly suck down more heal attention than somebody in Full tier 5 but the deficit isn't so great that your raid would lack the gear to do it. I think a lot of people forget that when attunement was required for Tier 6 most guilds only killed Vashj/Kael 2 or 3 times before leaving those zones forever, or at least until recruitment forced them back.

Back then there was no ZA, Season 2 weapons were the best available weapon for most people (s3 point selling wasn't in full swing yet). Even the badge gear sucked: you couldn't get things like Runed Spell-cuffs never mind the ridiculous things on the Isle of Quel'Denas. To say that anything like Full Tier 5 is required to make reasonable progression in Tier 6 is a combination of ignorance and bad play. Then there's the fact that gearing somebody is absolutely trivial for any raid-oriented guild.

Well got in a guild on my server in Hyjal/BT. Dunno if I'm doing something wrong or if my gear is preventing me, but I can do a steady 900-1k TPS, and they were asking for 1.4-1.7k TPS. I dunno how I could get that high, without more hit and/or SBV. Using the SS, Rev, Dev, Dev rotation. I dunno, hate feeling like the new kid and being all nervous.

hey Xilo what bar texture are you using for your player/target frames?

I'm not too sure really. I'm using Alekk UI from wowinterface with a bunch of my own mods and tweaks.

Andrew I am a HUGE ACE fan, and I use skillet.. Its awesome.

http://www.wowace.com/wiki/Skillet

DO NOT use that version of skillet. It hasn't been updated in forever and is buggy as hell. Use the one from http://www.wowace.com/forums/index.php?topic=12781.0

I agree evn. My Paladin hit 70 a few weeks ago and I couldnt get in a heroic or anything. No one runs the regular non heroics anymore so I cant really improve my gear. Luckily I had my guild that ran my scrubby alt through kara and now he's approaching 1500 healing and can pretty much do any heroic/instance.

With me leveling my shaman at a fast pace, due to a decreased intreset in tanking, I'm afriad to hit 70, because those same problems run rampart on my server. I got friends all completly outgear it so I can come in as dps, and get badges/gear pretty quick, but those times I need to PuG just don't happen, or *I* get the guys, that when you inspect and look at talents/gear selection you feel yourself die inside.

I was complaining about this whole bit in guild chat the other day: We're going to do all greens kara.

Hit the AH, buy a full set of greens gear (of the champion, of the physician, etc) and clear the zone using only what drops as we go.

I'll see if we can get a video made.

I don't see a download link in that thread. o.O

In the thread, they are attachments. Might need to register. I actually prefer the lilsparky branch than the one linked above. He at least has an active thread on the forum and is implementing new features/bug fixes. The original author of Skillet is awol and the only thing getting updated that I know of are minor bug fixes by someone else. It's not really good to mess with people's stuff on the SVN, so really there's not much else people can do with the original branch.

Edited by Xilo

There's a post sort of like this on another forum site with Desktop screenshots, that gets regular traffic and has several thousand posts. Who knows, maybe this will be the WoW version of that thread. I just figured it'd be nice to have one place to show off your character and achievements. I'll start by posting a few of my lvl 48 Blood Elf Paladin.

Making my way through Searing Gorge

Waterfall in Maraudon

The Gator Boss of Maraudon with one of his buddies who got in the way.

The farting boss, of all the attacks they could've made up, a giant farting AOE...funny nonetheless

Not the place I'd want to get locked up.

Edit: If this thread already exists, I apologize, but I did a search and nothing came up.

Anyone care to offer two cents on something?

I'm currently a level 117 paladin blacksmith. I'm.. sort of happy doing it.

However.. I was looking over engineering and it looks like it'll be more profitable, and more fun.

What's better for a paladin to take in the long run?

With BS its best to look at the plans that drop from the 25man raids, hell plans in general.

I used to be a BS but I switched as Ive found selling BOE Gear a bit tricky as a BS. Im now an Eng and love my mount and helm. Farmin motes with your Mote Extractor is easy tho and nets a great deal of gold.

BS = If you wanna gear up easier

Eng = Money / Fun toys

    • 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.
    • They said by this time everyone will have flying cars. WELL...
    • A study by physicist Henry Tye of Cornell University suggests that the universe may not expand forever. Instead, it could eventually stop expanding, begin contracting and end in a "Big Crunch" roughly 20 billion years from now. Maybe not as we now know that time can flow backwards.
    • Of course. Simply reverse the polarity.
    • It is clear from this aricle that "Time Is On My Side" no matter which direction it is flowing., https://noai.duckduckgo.com/?i...m%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DsEj8lUx0gwY
