Okay, this is getting REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAL ****ing old guys. If one of the staff members is deleting my posts, at least have the decency to say why it was deleted. I'm pretty sure it's got nothing to do with my connection, since I saw the post in the thread after replying...

All I posted was that the shaman totem quests will probably be removed or revamped for Cataclysm, since the zones are getting changed up a bit. Not to mention they've already removed the annoying druid quests so it's not a far fetched idea by any means.

relax, take a chill pill ;)

So I just discovered Arathai Basin 2 ours ago ... WTF! Why didn't anyone tell me about this before? This is great ... Been in 8 and won 8 .. 24 marks, working my way towards a Frost Wolf Howler mount =)

Haha, have you checked the other pvp methods also? My personal favorite is Alterac Valley, i just love the prospect of huge hordes of people rushing at each other and having huge fights and trying to kill the king. It's just extremely awesome when teamwork happens also.

Arathi Basin doesn't reward the Frostwolf Howler mount for marks, Alterac Valley does.

lol, wish I could say mine was that comDeath Knightorc80?b>Paladinolo48 - 48

I also have some repeat classes as I've moved servers over the years. 44 and 48 warriors, 32 and 47 pallies, 76 DK... and low level alts I couldn't get past level 25. I fail at clo:/ies too. :/

I think the more you do it, the more you know the reward and fun of getting to 80 and playing that class in end-game content. I've got 4 80s right now (paladin, mage, DK, and druid) and I'm working on a shaman (currently at 44) and a rogue (currently at 13). I'm also working on getting cloth heirloom gear so I can do a warlock and a priest.

I used to hate leveling with a passion, but the heirloom gear greatly reduces the time it takes, and, as I said, knowing what I'll be doing with all these different characters once I get them to 80 helps motivate me along the way.

That being said, I'm not sure I'll ever do a warrior or hunter... But it would be nice to have a full set of 80s.

i admit i will be creating an alliance character for the expansion so i can be a Wargen however i have yet to determine what class i want to be.

Same. I was alliance up until recently, so it kind of sucks that I'm going to have a single alliance character. Oh well. Blizz is hoping to do cross-faction BoA gear transfers soon, so luckily I can still support him with stuff like that.

Druids for life! (My Druid) :)

I like my druid a lot. I leveled feral with a healing off-spec, but I wasn't very satisfied with the feral DPS. I switched to a moonkin build, using just the healing gear I already had (note: the healing gear wasn't good enough for heroics yet) and I was already pulling 2.7k DPS on heroic bosses. I was blown away :laugh:

Feral can do some of the top DPS if you know how to play it. The only problem is that feral also has the most obscenely complicated priority system instead of a standard rotation.

Yeah, I just wasn't having fun with it. Complicated can be fun, but it was just over-complicated in my opinion.

It's not over-complicated really. Once you get the cycle going its pretty easy to keep up.

Mangle, Savage Roar, Rake, shred to 5cp, rip, shred to 4 or 5cp while also keeping mangle and rake up, Savage Roar... repeat :)

If you have another druid or a warrior with trauma in the group its even easier.

Once you learn the ins and outs its pretty easy to manage and provides for some pretty awesome dps. I'll pull top 5 on most single target fights.

Anybody else having huge lag? Seems like some European realms are full of it. The ping is going over the top. Also, Blizzard's European sites don't seem to work properly.

yesterday i was having some intense lag when looting candy buckets however i think that the lag is generated from all the people looting the same items at the same time all over the realm causing a back end database issue with item lookups.

    • 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.
