Mine is Boring and rather simple Galenhawke The Noble.

Sadly I still need to get some upgrades to get away from Item Level 200

Still Have at Level 200

*Sandals of Crimson Fury

*Cuffs of Winged Levitation

*Annhylde's Ring

*Sundial of the Exiled

*Abyssal Rune

I Also still have a few Item Level 213 Items as well

*Thunderstorm Amulet

*Band of Channeled Magic

*Gemmed Wand of the Nerubians

Need to get off my behind and replace them all :p

On the Plus side within the week I should have the full Tier 9 set and another week or two I will have 1 Piece of Tier 10 (most likely the Helm)

Depending on how far you got with the quest chain, it may still be obtainable. I got mine the week after 3.0 hit due to the fact my guild was finally able to kill KT. I've seen a few people with dates in 09 of obtaining it, who went back through and finished up the quest line.

This is no longer the case, they patched it out at some point around 3.1. I tried it on my priest, who'd had the quest since sometime in 2.4 before I quit playing, and he didn't get the title :(

Been meaning to join in this thread for ages! So here it goes!

I currently play 2 chars, a Hunter and Shadow Priest. My hunter I've had since WoW began, although I was a noob really until TBC. Recently in the past 6 months or so I levelled my Shadow Priest and just been gearing in the new ICC Heroics, badge loot and craftables.

Erebu - Hunter

Darkshínes - Shadow Priest

Why are proto drakes so damn hard to get?

Because they've already made it SIMPLE to get epics through these expansions, hardcore people should be rewarded with something the masses can't get.

Thats why. IMO if you're good... they aren't really THAT hard to get.

P.S. - I have 1 ;) on two characters. and... "Hardmodes are the how the game should be played, regular is lame mode for casuals" great quote from some severely elitist dude.

Why are proto drakes so damn hard to get?

They are actually quite easy imo.

Blue Proto Drake From UP, fairly easy to farm. Theres about 5-6 people (including alts) that have it

Green one from Oracles Dailys

Red One (probably the easiest to obtain now) just by doing Glory of the Hero.

Then you got the Raiders ones which are slightly more difficult to get. Having said that people on my server are pugging ulduar hardmodes all the way to YS+0 To get them.

Not to mention the Violet Proto Drake from the World Events/Special Occasions achievements.

Go to Northend now, you'll hit 70 in a matter of hours - Don't do the last two levels in Outlands, it's a waste of time.

I was actually just going to kind of instance to 68, cause at 68 I think it will pick me instances I haven't done now :) Yeah there's a few BC instances I never got to try.

Could do that as well, it was just in case you decided to do quest levelling - Still, you should do Northend 68-70; you will blaze through those levels because of the massive increase in XP plus Northend has been drowned in quests, so you can do 5-6 quests in a tiny area worth well over 100-150k. Then do instances at 70 when it starts to slow down a bit again.

Cheers for the advice bro (Y) I probably will if it doesn't start chucking me into new instances I haven't played. I just love the new LFG system, no more hassle over fighting or people asking can I respec healing/can I tank when I want to DPS.... and to be fair since I've installed recount I'm always 1st/2nd, so STFU anyone saying I can't DPS as Pala :devil:

1. get a dr00d

2. Go to Sethekk Halls

3. Get the bonus boss

4. ????

5. AWESOME MOUNT

Ran that instance quite a few times now, just with no druid.

Unfortunately I have no close friends playing druid that would put up with the amount of runs necessary for the mount to drop :(

In fact I ran it with 5 paladins LOL. Can't believe the LFG matched 5 pala's up, but we kicked ass anyway. Bad thing about that though is basically everyone is rolling on the same ****ing loot :laugh:

Well, unless you choose specific the system seems to constantly throw you into some completely mind-numbing instance constantly. I'm 99% sure it's intentional from Blizzard's side, as the crappy, drab and bland instances needed more people running 'em.

Trust me, hit 70 via Northend and do Northend instances - You will love most of them, plus the gear that drops is massive upgrades and it looks sweet.

As for Recount, I'm top of the list 95% of the time, maybe not in average DPS but damage done for the entire instance. Retribution Paladins these days have some insane AoE attacks, half of their primary attacks are AoE now. Seal of Command hits an additional 2 targets

when using Crusader Strike and Auto-attack, plus Divine Storm, plus Holy Wrath ( With undead mobs - Which there's plenty of in Northend ). Although, when one of those insane "raider" characters join the queue system you will get blitzed.

I hit 70 for the first time yesterday :pc:

Congrats mate (Y)

Ret palas ftw been one for wows 5yr history. Love the class dont care what anyone says and yeh nowdays Ret is very very nice to play.

It is, but I'd really like to give prot a go, even if it's just for the lulz or revisiting old instances and watching mobs batter themselves to death off me :laugh:

I probably wouldn't spec holy, whilst this time around I wanted some healing ability, I can't be stressed with learning how to heal well in groups, it's far too important and if you mess up everything is blamed on you.

DPS no chance of that, seeing as I play well as a ret pally, tanking I could learn pretty quickly I think.

Anyone else trying to get the Time Lost Proto Drake? Good god this thing is rare as hell. I have spent the past few weeks going along all the spawn points. It ridiculous.

It'd be nice to have, but I'll only get it if I come across it by chance - not by stalking...

    • Microsoft confirms Windows 11 26H2 to finally get one of the most requested features by Sayan Sen This past week Microsoft officially confirmed Windows 11 version 26H2 with the latest build, 26300.8697, for testing in the experimental Insider channel. The company also published more details about it mainly directed towards IT admins and system admins. Essentially version 26H2 will be delivered via an enablement package (eKB) over Windows 11 25H2. If you are wondering about some of the upcoming features in the next Windows version, one of them is certainly very interesting as Microsoft has confirmed it is finally bringing one of the most overwhelmingly requested features ever. March Rogers, the Partner Director of Design at Microsoft, recently highlighted some of the Search improvements that the company is testing, and during the interaction with users on X where he posted it, Rogers also confirmed that the company is working on disabling web search results inside Search. This is something which many users find quite annoying as Windows would often serve them links to Bing which it feels could be more helpful rather than bringing up the actual object or app the user may be searching for on their PC. Finally though the company is prioritizing local file search over the web. However the feature could not be disabled for many users as not all new features are immediately rolled out to everyone. Image via phantomofearth (X) Windows enthusiast phantomofearth who likes to dig deep into new builds uncovered the IDs you will need to enable these features. Using the following feature IDs the new Search-related features landing in Windows 11 26H2 can be used. Follow the steps below to enable the new Search experience on Windows 11 build 26300.8697: Download ViveTool from GitHub and unpack the files in a convenient and easy-to-find folder. Press Win + X and select Terminal (Admin). Switch Windows Terminal to the Command Prompt profile with the Ctrl + Shift + 2 shortcut or by clicking the arrow-down button at the top of the window. Navigate to the folder containing the ViveTool files with the CD command. For example, if you have placed ViveTool in C:\Vive, type CD C:\Vive. Type vivetool /enable /id: and press Enter. Restart your computer. If you change your mind and want to restore, repeat the steps above and replace /enable with /disable in the commands on steps 5 and 6. Delightedly and perhaps also expectedly, once you disable web search and other such bloat, the Windows 11 Search is said to get snappier as remarked by another Windows enthusiast Xeno.
