Didn't watch video, but could you PM me and tell me what happened at the end of that episode? My tivo stop recording right when he hired her back. :(

I swear i'm cursed..

Every guild run or partial guild i've been in this week has bombed out due to retardiness or lag..

yet people who have PUG'd have successfully done it..

only thing i got left unsaved is kara this week..

should i pug or take a chance if the guild runs? hmm

I was in the same boat last week. 3 toons stuck and saved in a 10man or a 25man. BLIZZ needs to fix this @$%#$%^

I think the problem lies in who makes up your guild.

You see.. a lot of guilds are nothing more than a group of people who are all collectively stuck at the same place. When you attempt things with your guild there may be the anticipation of failure from any numbers of people that have proven unreliable in the past.. therefore the overall effort may suffer. In a pug you may know 5-10 players or heard of them at least. If a player in a pug fails they are replaced.

I wouldn't get discouraged about raiding in either situation.. raiding with a guild is more comfortable and usually more fun but downing a boss is downing a boss is downing a boss.

very insightful. you just described the guild i was in perfectly.

well ever since the patch we've been running unscheduled raids ..

our server's been lagging to death.. literally

people are just getting burnt out and tired of the BS mostly of blizzard

we have a good 15 - 20 core people who log in during the week and want to raid something

While the official ruling is that you can't get the title any more, if you are on certain stages of the quest chain it's still possible.

Example: If you'd completed the BT attunement chain, but hadn't completed the Hyjal attunement you can still get the title provided you had the quest in your log already. They way no-title-for-you was implemented was by adding duplicate quests with identical rewards/text/etc. that all the NPCs now give out. They won't give out the old ones, but there is some speculation that if you have somebody share them you can still sneak your way into a title.

All the same: grats.

So if your like myself , have the Q in your log and have Vashj`s vial but no Kael`s. If i go kill Kael as were planning on saturday, then I should be able to get my title?

I had the quest for months, and completed it last night. No Title for me

I didn't get it either when I turned in the vial quest. Once I get my Medallion of Kablar(sp?) it gave me the title. Finish that chain if you haven't already.

I had to talk to the guy in SSC when patch hit, after patch hit I talked to him, turned all that in, killed Rage, turned that in watch Maive kick ass and turned it in and got the title.

I didn't get it either when I turned in the vial quest. Once I get my Medallion of Kablar(sp?) it gave me the title. Finish that chain if you haven't already.

That makes sense.

The title was for completing the BT attunement chain which required Hyjal attunement.

Well he died tonight. I didn't bother attending any of the raids due to drama and bull****. Think with WOTLK coming time to find a new guild, and continue to run from drama. Or maybe just get some friends and see if they'll do an alt 10 man guild or something, as to continue to see content in the expansion but avoid bull**** drama.

I'm loving the Invasion event, but I swear I've never seen so much whining and crying in my life.

Must have missed the entire BC qq's about everything to get nerfed to a welfare state. :(

I think the invasion event sucks so much ass it couldn't possibly suck more ass even if it tried.

It does. So annoying, can't even turn in quests (i need that do a daily 5 days in a row and the nagrand guy is so easy and quick to do), can't land or take portals anywhere because of insta-infected-ness. This is by far the most annoying and worst event I've seen by Blizz.

The event is ok..

its something different..

I kinda find it annoying but its more of an inconvenience

I don't mind the durability damage or anything I can afford that, I have some fun with though and turn into a zombie in Stormwind and explode.. i use all the cooldowns first too :p

You guys who hate the zombie event obviously need to take a break from WoW because most people are loving it as the queue times on the server can show. It's just a game so try to have a little fun because this is what us casuals have always wanted from the game. You hardcore grinders are going to ruin it for everyone else so that Blizzard never does anything like this again.

Not being to turn in a quest for easy gold is fun? Not being able to take a FP out of the city is fun? Not being able to take a portal from Shatt to IF, because zombies wait on the other side is fun? Not being able to use the AH is fun? Man you have a twisted since of fun, unless of course your only goal is to annoy others at which point you are ruining the game more than those "hardcore" people you so quickly accuse.

    • First time clicking on a Sayan Sen article after he started making clickbait, vague headlines recently. Didn't read, just came here to say the headline doesn't look like very cheap, vague clickbait this time. Are you okay?
    • Good review, and yeah the benchmark breakdown is pretty clear but also a little messy in a good way. It’s kinda interesting to see where the RX 9070 GRE slides in between the 7800 XT and the 9070 XT , especially when it comes to AI tasks and Blender style workloads. The side by side with Nvidia’s RTX 5070 and 4070 makes it feel obvious just how competitive the mid range GPU scene has gotten lately, and that’s great for creators and gamers too since you can pick based on your priorities rather than only chasing one single thing.
    • That's it. I finally uninstalled Firefox because they often keep pushing buggy updates, only to test them later and make users suffer. No longer is it my alternative browser to Edge. What a waste of energy. Firefox is bad for the environment, just like Chrome (wasting RAM/energy).
    • Microsoft Weekly: new Surface, Windows 11 26H2, and more by Taras Buria This week's news recap is here, with Microsoft announcing Windows 11 version 26H2, launching new Surface devices powered by Snapdragon X2 processors, GTA VI preorder date and cover art, fresh Windows 11 preview builds, a quirky phone-sized e-reader with a physical dial, and more. Quick links: Windows 10 and 11 Windows Insider Program Updates are available Reviews are in Gaming news Great deals to check Windows 11 and Windows 10 Here, we talk about everything happening around Microsoft's latest operating system in the Stable channel and preview builds: new features, removed features, controversies, bugs, interesting findings, and more. And, of course, you may find a word or two about older versions. Windows 11 version 26H2 is now official. Alongside Windows 11's new preview builds released this week, Microsoft confirmed version 26H2, which is coming later this year as an enablement package based on the same platform as versions 24H2 and 25H2. A newly published blog post details what IT admins should do to prepare for the upcoming launch. Next, we have new Windows 11 bugs. Users report that this month's security updates for Windows 11 cause all sorts of issues, including BitLocker bugs, OneDrive issues, black screens of death, and third-party integration in Office apps. Microsoft has not confirmed those yet, but it acknowledged other issues with its operating system. What Microsoft has confirmed is a bug where Recycle Bin delete prompts display internal file names instead of actual ones, and a year-old Windows JScript compatibility bug caused by security-focused engine changes. Moving to more positive news, Microsoft and Adobe are working on improving Windows performance in popular creative apps like Photoshop. Thanks to SPGO optimizations, users can expect up to 20% better performance. Finally, we have a few useful articles that can help you recover your PC or make it perform better. For one, we published a guide detailing what to do if your computer cannot boot after a clean Windows 11 install. There are two important steps you can try to get your system back to working in no time. Additionally, there is a more detailed guide on various CPU performance modes that could notably improve performance. Windows Insider Program Here is what Microsoft released for Windows Insiders this week: Builds Canary Channel Builds 28120.2315 and 29613.1000 These two builds include a new built-in audio driver, improvements to audio Settings, and more. Dev Channel Builds 26300.8697 and 26220.8690 Not much is available here. Some File Explorer improvements, Start menu enhancements, bug fixes, and more. However, build 26300.8697 is now officially marked as version 26H2. Updates are available This section covers software, firmware, and other notable updates (released and coming soon) delivering new features, security fixes, improvements, patches, and more from Microsoft and third parties. This week, Microsoft announced its newest Surface devices powered by Qualcomm's latest Snapdragon X2 processors. There is the 12th-gen Surface Pro and the 8th-gen Surface Laptop. Both devices feature little to no visual differences compared to their predecessors from 2024, and most changes hide inside, including a better processor, faster graphics, enhanced NPUs, and more. The Surface Laptop also received a new haptic trackpad. Mozilla is currently working on a major Firefox redesign, and earlier this week, it published a roadmap of upcoming features and highlights of the upcoming "Project Nova" rework. Files, one of the best file managers for Windows 10 and 11, has been updated in the Preview channel with a long-requested feature. Tree View is finally available in version 4.1.4, allowing you to quickly browse deeply nested folders without leaving the main view. In addition, the update improved the Windows Fonts folder, allowing you to preview each font without opening the default viewer. Rufus, another useful Windows 11 utility, also received a notable update. Version 4.15 arrived as beta with important fixes for silent Windows 11 installation. It also includes patches for ARM-based Windows PCs, OneDrive removal improvements, and more. Here are other updates and releases you may find interesting: Microsoft faces shareholder lawsuit over masking AI costs and slowing Azure growth Microsoft now allows you to tweak Visual Studio to new extremes Microsoft brings Planner Agent to all Microsoft 365 Copilot users Microsoft fixes one of Excel Copilot's most frustrating limitations Microsoft will finally let you sign in to Edge with a Google account Here are the latest drivers and firmware updates released this week: NVIDIA 610.62 with support for Empulse and various fixes. Reviews are in Here is the hardware and software we reviewed this week Earlier this week, we reviewed the DuRoBo Krono, a portable, phone-sized e-reader with some interesting physical controls. This device has an Apple Watch-like dial for page turning, frontlight adjustment, and more. Software is simple and no-nonsense, but it also lacks some useful features and customization. Overall, the device proved interesting, but not flawless. On the gaming side Learn about upcoming game releases, Xbox rumors, new hardware, software updates, freebies, deals, discounts, and more. Forza Horizon 6 received two big updates this week. Alongside the Series 2 content update, developers pushed plenty of bug fixes and balancing tweaks. However, they also had to acknowledge the Eliminator CR-farming exploit and shut down the online mode temporarily. Luckily, only a few days later, another fix arrived, which re-enabled Eliminator and patched the exploit. Microsoft announced new games for Game Pass subscribers. Those include EA Sports FC 26, Junkster, Call of Duty: Vanguard, Abyssus, RV There Yet?, and more. Some existing games are leaving the catalog, so be sure to check out the full list here. New games are also available for GeForce NOW subscribers, and they include Embers of the Uncrowned Demo, Aphelion, Megastore Simulator, OPERATOR, Citizen Sleeper, and more. Rockstart Games had plenty of GTA-related news this week. For one, the company gave GTA V players another free update. Those still playing the game on Xbox One and PlayStation 4 are no longer required to pay $40 to upgrade to the latest-gen version. More importantly, Rockstar Games revealed the GTA VI cover art and announced the preorder date. The Epic Games Store is giving away two games: Citizen Sleeper and Roboeat.
