Tell me if you like it or not.

Pretty slick. I would move the nameplates down though. Having information all over the screen gets tiresome especially if you are trying to pay attention to monster/self health/castbars/buffs/debuffs along with cooldowns.

Man. Having just leveled a Warlock with no support from my main on another realm to 80. I genuinely feel sorry for anyone trying to get in to WoW.

I mean problems with getting in to PvE:

- No heroics.

- When you do get an heroic. It's full of genuinely retarded players who have no clue how to play their class. Who then go right ahead and insult you when you friendly point out something they are missing.

- PuG raids: "LFM 10 NAXX LINK EPIC ACH". For those who don't understand what's wrong with this. The achievement requires full 25 man ilevel 213 item gear to get (trinket, robe, weapon you get the idea). Now 10 naxx drops ilevel 200. In short. Anyone asking for that is a ****ing idiot.

PvP:

- Impossible. Genuinely. As a lock I have 0 resilience right now I'm starting from 100 honour and a few badges. I need 25 WG badges for a trinket or 40k for a piece of gladiator. Unless I'm past the 400 mark you are a sitting duck. For example if I get cheap shotted and don't get a direct heal. I won't survive the stun. Sorry is this suppose to be fun?

- PuGs again - See my first remark about PvE only type everything in caps.

- Arena. See my first remark.

I guess I won't be re rolling till the next expansion then.

Hehe, I leveled a Lock to 25 and gave up quickly. I realized they aren't good for soloing and rely on support way to much. Not to mention Healers hate them thanks to their Life Tap ability.

What were you doing? :/

The lock is the easiest class to solo. I could solo most group quests and if I had my cooldowns up pull 4-6 mobs at a time and AoE them down.

Did you go Affliction, Demonology, or Destruction? I went Affliction and it was really hard to solo by myself. Even with a few Macro's set up and a strategy for my Voidwalker/Succubus to tank while I drained and DoT'd them I still struggled. And yes most Healers don't mind Life Tap IF you DON'T spam it but a lot of Locks like to spam it.

As giga said, should have gone demo. I spam LF like my life depended on it. It's the core of the class and with a Aff lock at 80 it's part of your rotation so you can get the buff from the glyph. You just do it before right after you cast haunt while the heal is traveling to you. It'll heal the damage taken.

WoW.com has multiple independent sources confirming the release of Patch 3.2 tomorrow (Tuesday August 4th in the US) and we're happy to pass that information along to you.

There are no patch notes available yet; however, they will no doubt be made available within the next few hours. But really, the patch notes are not going to deviate a terrible amount from the PTR patch notes, so this evening is a good time to familiarize yourself with everything.

The patch will also bring with it some rather significant extended maintenance as well.

SWEET :D

Damn, my guild is still working Yogg and the released new tier already! We haven't been able to get past P2 of Yogg as it's a combination of lack DPS in brain room and no control up top. But we have been steadly making progress and I was so hoping to kill him before patch. O well, here's to new **** out while I raid the old ****!

    • The concern of this article is not getting "hacked". No one is taking over my Google account and anyone that was is far away from self-hosting their passwords. It was about your big tech account of choice deciding to reduce features or getting out of the password manager business altogether. Bitwarden (or say Proton) is professional security company offering opensource solutions. They are going no where and one can easily download or export their passwords to another password manager service regardless. They again also offer self-hosted option. I doubt many people were sold on this solution based on the write up. The author had a number of warnings and caveats themselves. A local, self-managed solution is not for 99% of users.
    • I've owned nothing but ATi/AMD GPUs since 2002, after my last nVidia GPU in 2001 (3dfx before that), IIRC, and in all of that time I recall getting this error maybe once, certainly no more than twice. Despite all the scuttlebutt as to how poor AMD drivers are supposed to be that has certainly not been my experience at all... Usually it has been a configuration problem of some kind. Then again, since we're dealing with OS versions that are EOL, it could easily be an OS version discrepancy. It's still weird to think that Win11 has been officially out for more than five years!
    • AI will never be the jobs panacea some companies fantasize about today. Oracle is likely using it as an excuse, which we will see a lot of companies doing, I'm certain. They love their "plausible" excuses for their downturns. A couple of weeks ago my wife asked me to call Krogers about some discrepancy in a online grocery order, and it will be the last time either of us does that. I'll just do emails with humans from now on... The AI experience was horrible--the obviously recorded voice started asking a bunch of questions about our orders six months prior(!) and saying, "Is this in reference to your order on January 6, for $****?" You say "No!" and immediately the next question is "Is this in reference to your order on January 29th, for $****?" again, I answered "No!"--and it was incredible--on and on it went like that for fully 20 minutes until we finally got to the present, and only then was I put through to a human with authentic intelligence... I wondered why on Earth the idiot AI didn't start with the most recent orders and work back from there, as it was something anyone with a functioning brain would have done. And why didn't the AI have enough sense to ask me what the problem was in the first place? It didn't take too much deduction to understand that the goal of this "AI" was to cause the person on the phone to hang up in disgust, with no resolution of the problem. That begs another question: why pay for a tool-free problem line if the goal is to avoid solving your customer's problems?... Fortunately, Krogers does have real humans capable of reading an email and understanding it, and if she sees another situation in the future that's route she or I will take. The online grocery delivery service from Krogers has been great, over all, but their AI truly sucks.
    • AI is the justification that company administrators use to lay people off; it is not the end all, be all touted in the media (many of whom can't tell a microchip from a potato chip). Greed is main driving factor behind its adoption; the other is remaining relevant in the face of competition from other entities.
