Just a FYI for you people out there wondering about death knights, here is what they can do. ^_^ its me tanking in the beta.

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.

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.

    • Researchers claim Microsoft's quantum breakthrough is flawed by basic Python errors by Karthik Mudaliar Microsoft's aggressive roadmap to deliver a commercial quantum supercomputer by 2029 has now hit a bit of a snag, and it's not because of a complex sub-zero dilution refrigerator, but rather because of a few lines of basic Python code. A new critique published in the scientific journal Nature argues that simple software errors effectively manufactured the breakthrough that Microsoft's foundational research claimed back in 2025 into Majorana-based topological qubits. Topological quantum computing, the path that Microsoft chose for its research, relies on creating and controlling "Majorana zero modes." These are exotic quasiparticles that theoretically offer vastly superior error resistance compared to the highly sensitive superconducting qubits currently being championed by rivals like Google and IBM. However, physically proving you have created these particles requires sifting through massive amounts of complex electrical conductance data to isolate a specific "topological gap." Because of the sheer volume of data, physicists rely heavily on custom software pipelines to process the results. This is where the Python scripts come in. Now, according to the critique, Microsoft’s data processing software contained fundamental programming errors that ultimately skewed the published results. By mishandling data arrays or deploying incorrect logic within the Python script, the software supposedly discarded "noisy" or contradictory data. Which is why it only highlighted the specific electrical measurements that supported the topological-gap claim. The researchers behind the critique argued that this makes the findings invalid, suggesting the heralded "quantum leap" was actually a false positive generated by bad code and not a product of groundbreaking physics. However, Microsoft is pushing back hard against these allegations. The Redmond giant has formally rejected the criticism, saying that it's just a minor anomaly rather than a fatal flaw. According to the company, while there may have been a minor oversight in the data parsing scripts, it does not alter the fundamental reality of their physical experiment. Just weeks ago, Microsoft unveiled the Majorana 2 quantum processor, a milestone so significant that the company boldly accelerated its timeline for a commercial quantum supercomputer from 2035 down to 2029. But the new software allegations reopen an old wound. Microsoft's quantum division faced a remarkably similar crisis when a landmark 2018 paper on Majorana particles was famously retracted in 2021 after independent physicists discovered the data had been inappropriately cropped. That historical baggage makes the current Python-related allegations particularly sensitive. If the foundational math and data processing for the 2025 breakthrough are genuinely flawed, the highly anticipated 2029 commercial timeline could easily be delayed or, worse, cancelled.
    • Because of what they have done to VMware I will never buy anything Broadcom again.
    • AMD releases hotfix for driver install issues on Windows 10 PCs by Taras Buria Earlier this week, AMD released an important graphics driver update. Version 26.6.2 brought AMD FSR 4.1 support to the previous-gen Radeon lineup, the RX 7000 series, giving users better upscaling tech that was previously locked to the newest GPUs. However, the driver turned out to be a little buggy, with users reporting installation issues on systems still running Windows 10. AMD quickly acknowledged the bug and today released a hotfix to resolve the problem. The AMD 26.6.3 Hotfix update is now available for download from the official website. Given that it is a hotfix release, it has only one change in its release notes: AMD announced the update on its official X account and added that a WHQL driver update with the necessary fixes would be released next week. Meanwhile, users can apply the hotfix or roll back to the previous driver using the official AMD Cleanup Utility. You can download AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition 26.6.3 Hotfix Preview Driver from the official website here. It is compatible with all currently supported graphics cards and 64-bit Windows 10 and 11. Full release notes are available on the same page.
    • With Microsoft now listening to its core audience and acting upon received feedback, fans can finally expect a much better version of Windows 11 than what was available five years ago. Here is to five more years, Windows 11! I guess we all need a good laugh now and again...
