I just started a Tauren hunter. It's much more fun than I remember. I love all the changes they've made with 3.0. Not sure if I'll bring it all the way to 80 (that very rarely happens), but it's definitely a possibility.

For whoever asked about Win7 and WoW - yes I also get two icons in task bar if I pin the icon.

Go to the installation folder and pin WoW.exe. When you first run it, you'll have two icons (since Launcher.exe is a separate executable), but after the game actually starts it will go away.

nah.. Still get 2 icons that way also.

I got really tired of my UI so I redesigned it:

Figured I'd take a picture in a raid group so you can see the damage meter for how it works.

What are ya using for your damage meter? Looked at a few but i like the look of that one. :)

So I think I actually like the default UI again. I added Cartographer, QuestHelper, OneBag and OneBank, but that's it. I always spend a ton of time making my own, but I installed WoW on my laptop (I'm back home for the weekend) and I actually liked just using the default. When I get back home I'm going to wipe everything out and start with just those four. I may add a few utility addons, but look-wise I'll probably stick with the default.

Also - got my first Tier 7.5 today! So happy coz my guild is only a casual raiding guild, but we decided to run 25man Naxx and yeah, downed Kael and got my helmet along with other pretty spanky gear :)

Only thing that sucked was spending 2000g for Beserker mats for my 2 new daggers, along with enchants for my new gloves, belt and boots lol.

If anyone on blackrock wants to send me 2000g for the hell of it, feel free :p

Grats on the loot and the two two daggers, I still need an OH for PvP. Being an enchanter/JC'er helps when it comes to new gear, but on the flip side, I could have sold all the mats/gems and made a nice profit too :laugh:

Good to see another player from Blackrock on here.

I go through that every few months :p

I've canceled my account at least three times so far. Let's see how long this run lasts...

My subscription ends on the 19th of February. I won't be playing but it won't be a waste because my siblings have many characters on my account. Anyway, I doubt I'm going to play WoW again until the summer.

I used to play WoW a while back, I think only up to level 16 or so.

I've heard with the release of the EP's it's now easier to level up (or quicker)?

I always hear of people playing WoW for hours on end, quite simply with coursework, uni and work, I think I'll only be able to play a couple of hours a day (if that some days).

Would it be OK playing WoW like that do you think?

Have you tried Combuctor? I've found it to be quite a handy bag replacement.

Ugh. HoL HC annoyed me. A lot. I tanked it, and finally, after about 5 wipes and two replacements, we reached the last boss. Healer fails 4 times in a row and just dies, wiping the party. Healer leaves because he is sick of it. DPS also starts to leave, I am left alone.

I look for a new healer and some dpsers who want to help me out. I invite them, we go in, and BAM, mob respawns. We thought, let's just run through quickly.

We do it all in like 15 minutes, reach the boss, almost kill him, healer dies, party wipes. Healer has to go Naxx. I logged.

Argh

This all took a total of 3 hours and 30 minutes.

Better just go do VH/Strat/AN for badges next time...

Frost is pretty good damage and has good solo survivability. If you want top damage though, generally the fire tree or frost fire spec provides the top DPS I think.

Depends. In this case, yes take the frost spell power one. If the majority of the dps spells you cast are from one tree, it's safe to take the specific spell power increases.

If you have pretty decent gear at lvl 80, and your reaction speed is okay you can easily top everyone's DPS in Arcane.

I am looking for a mod.. And there has to be one for it..

I want a mod that shows me where an item comes from in the tooltip. You know how auctioneer and such shows in the tooltip what the item sells for.. There has to be a mod that when you look at an item it will show you were the item comes from.

Anyone know of one?

Basically something along the lines such as:

Slayer of Lifeless

stats

yellow text

Addon: Gothik (Normal Naxx)

???

AtlasLoot and AtlasLoot Enhanced. These are two must have addons everyone should use.

If you enjoy resource hogs, absolutly. And then AtlasLoot only covers bosses and not everything in-game. And then you just mean on of the other correct, AtlasLoot is no longer maintain since the orignial creator doesn't work on it anymore. Some other guy took over and named it AtlasLoot Enhanced to show the difference, and you only need to run either or not both.

Resource hogs is the biggest problem with using Atlas.. And the fact that I want it in a tooltip, so when I inspect someone its there.. I dont have to remember the name of the item I just looked at on someone, then open up atlasloot and try and find it, or use the search option...IF it even works.

"Gamers speak two languages"

Have you ever heard anyone call anyone in game a Timmy? And what is Nexx?

lol yeah.. Some of those are just made up by HIM!! Nex wtf.. And to ask for you help you are going to say you have 2 tanks and 2 dk's? WTF!!!

I'm of the same opinion with UI's lately. I like the artwork of the default UI but I just can't stand how it's all off centered. I've also come to dislike how a lot of UI's don't really fit into the WoW world if that makes sense. I'm not saying they are bad they're just not for me. So I created one that still feels like it belongs in the game.

My current reworked UI

Edit: Why is it sized strangely? My screenshots folder says it's 1680x1050...weird. *shrug*

    • I agree with what I think you are saying, just not in the way you are saying it. Like any tool, the amount it represents your work is perorational to the effort you put into it. It is similar to why 2nd grade math students learning to add and subtract are not allowed to use calculators, but a high-school calculous student is. For the 2nd grader, that tool would completely replace the work they are doing, for the calculous student the same tool allows them to work far more effectively while in no way replacing their effort or knowable. If you spend 30 seconds writing a prompt, then the image that comes out is no more "yours" than if you found the same image with a Google Image search. However, many of these generative tools also support highly iterative processes that allow back and forth, and merging generated images with photos or human created images. I am sure you would agree that a human spending hours of time working on a project, even if AI was involved in the process, still reflects that human's work.
    • Windows 11 version 26H2 is now available for testing in the latest preview build by Taras Buria Friday Windows 11 preview builds are here. Insiders in the Experimental (formerly Dev) and Beta Channel can download builds 26300.8697 and 26220.8690. There are no new features, but Microsoft is officially moving the Experimental Channel to version 26H2. In addition, Microsoft is improving the copy dialog in File Explorer, the Start menu reliability, and fixing virtualization issues. Here is the changelog: [General] With today’s build, Windows Insiders in the Experimental channel will see the versioning updated under Settings > System > About (and winver) to version 26H2. For more information, see the Windows Insiders blog. [File Explorer] We’ve improved the visual consistency and reliability of the Copy dialog in Dark mode, including its launch experience and the expanded progress view. [Start menu] - Also available in Beta Improved reliability of Start menu reflecting newly installed or removed apps without requiring sign-out or restart. [Taskbar] Fixed an issue for Insiders using the new smaller taskbar option, where the system tray might get cut off or pushed off screen. [Settings] - Also available in Beta Improved reliability of Settings > Apps > Startup. [Virtualization] - Also available in Beta This update addresses an issue that could result in bugchecks citing HYPERVISOR_ERROR (0x20001) and KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED (0x1E) errors after installing the latest flights on some devices during system restarts, virtual machine operations, or while running some gaming applications. You can find the official changelog for the Experimental build here and for the Beta build here.
    • I've always preferred this possibility. There is something that feels good about the idea that all matter in the universe will eventually come back together and maybe even result in another big bang. The idea that the universe would fizzle out over the eons and forever drift apart is a little depressing. I realize it is not logical to let a basic human desire for life to have a grand everlasting meaning change the way I feel about a scientific theory, but I am human, so that is how I feel :-).
    • Windoze 11 could finally go to hell, instead of making me savor yet another error I've never had. "Bad Pool Caller" or whatever TF cryptic crap0la message it is. Adding salt to injury, it says something along these lines (on the blank black screen after it hard stops): "Your windoze needs to restart. You can restart." NO WAY SHERLOCK. The PEECEE, look, it's *blocked*, I can do jack sh1t with it as it is and you say that it needs to restart? Further, that I can restart? What am I supposed to do, take a herbal bath? Sudo a sandwich? Timewaster pile of useless slop and errors, coded by monkeys and force-fed on us by a pedo-founded corporation, that's all there is to it. Now, let's have a fun weekend trying to handle the error, which after a quick internet check can basically be due to EVERYTHING, from memory faults to drivers to motherboard issues. Thanks M$.
    • Zen Browser 1.21.3b by Razvan Serea Zen Browser is a privacy-focused, open-source web browser built on Mozilla Firefox, offering users a secure and customizable browsing experience. It emphasizes privacy by blocking trackers, ads, and ensuring your data isn't collected. With Zen Mods, users can enhance their browser experience with various customization options, including features like split views and vertical tabs. The browser is designed for efficiency, providing fast browsing speeds and a lightweight interface. Zen Browser prioritizes user control over the browsing experience, offering a minimal yet powerful alternative to traditional web browsers while keeping your online activity private. Zen Browser’s DRM limitation Zen Browser currently lacks support for DRM-protected content, meaning streaming services like Netflix and HBO Max are inaccessible. This is due to the absence of a Widevine license, which requires significant costs and is financially unfeasible for the developer. Additionally, applying for this license would require Zen to be part of a larger company, similar to Mozilla or Brave. Therefore, DRM-protected media won't be supported in Zen Browser for the foreseeable future. Zen Browser offers features that improve user experience, privacy, and customization: Privacy-Focused: Blocks trackers and minimizes data collection. Automatic Updates: Keeps the browser updated with security patches. Zen Mods: Customizable themes and layouts. Workspaces: Organize tabs into different workspaces. Compact Mode: Maximizes screen space by minimizing UI elements. Zen Glance: Quick website previews. Split Views: View multiple tabs in the same window. Sidebar: Access bookmarks and tools quickly.
