Meh, he couldn't use it, I could, he'll easily see it drop again in his next two levels.

Potentially. RNG sucks.

This ring would be better suited for you and drops in Normal OK.

Here's a quest reward from SB once you hit 77. And another quest reward once you hit 76 from SB. Here's a ring with some flavor from one of the introductory quests at K3 in Storm Peaks once you hit 77, this.

I will admit there isn't much rings while leveling, but rings really aren't a key leveling piece. Taking a ring that a tank will have a better use (even if it is in a few levels) is a low move. Regardless leveling through the 70's is quick enough and any gear obtain is easily replace by gear acquired in SP and Icecrown and level 80 normal dungeons. It's really not going to matter. Since you have a tank ring, why don't you take the time this other tank took to acquire tank gear and start tanking? You can take all the tank gear you want and it'll help teach you how to tank when you hit 80, instead of being the one of several nubs tanks at 80? It's a win win.

Been outrolled on that a few times.

I really don't care he'll get it again easily, dunno why some of you have your backs up against the wall. I spend ages helping WoW players, doing instances runs for nothing, even helped Sethos and I roll on one ring and everyone's like OMG TANK NEED MORE! :laugh:

Anyway trying to get Enchant - Fiery Weapon just now, 5 runs so far, zilch.

Going to get my level 80 friend to help me obtain this now as well, I'm at 75 - http://thottbot.com/i41816

He certainly can use it - probably within 8 hours of leaving the instance given how quickly you can level.

The argument that more gear will drop as a player levels or reaches level cap is support for the argument that you acted like a jerk: you'll see more appropriate gear as you level too.

How do you know the guy you rolled against hadn't seen better loot come and go a dozen times?

Nothing ill will come of what you did because it's not against the rules but it's still a douche move.

People are pointing out that what you did was uncool because the game will become less fun if the attitude you expressed becomes the norm rather than the ugly exception.

Imagine you're a fresh 80 running heroic dungeons for the first time (lets say Forge of Souls) and the excellent melee DPS trinket drops. Would I be a jerk for needing it on my DK tank because "I can use the shard" or "I might want it for RPing" or "Maybe I want to make a tank spec with armor penetration to see if it's good"? You'll see it drop again and there's better loot easily obtained in ToC or ICC pugs. Or what if I played on my mage and needed every cloth drop because I can shard it: you'd have no recourse and I'd have 15g per drop (repairs don't pay for themselves). It's within the rules but it's still antisocial and uncool.

Is it possible to become exalted with both of the centaur clans in Desolace?

No. Even if you save all the quests and grind kills you'll not be able to make it past 300/21000 revered.

Doing kills for one lowers your reputation with the other so you can't be revered with both at the same time.

So I guess its not worth bothering with them. Thanks. Oh, by the way, I think I did all the quests for Gelkis Clan, around 4-5. Now I can start killing them to do the quests for Magram Clan, right?

Got my axe and fiery formula today, happy chappy :D

3/4 of the way to 76 as well!

You should probably start working on your +hit now then. when you get to 80 and you have no hit you will be doing crappy dps in groups.

Thanks for tip!

By the way, what would you guys say is more beneficial?

Fiery Weapon

or

Crusader

DPS, Level 75, weapon speed 3.50.

Crusader, Fiery is something I would get just for the glow lol

When you hit 80, go to http://be.imba.hu/ and it will tell you what needs upgrading and if you need more hit etc.

I quite like the one at wow-heroes.com, their enchant/gem advisor is heaps more reliable imo.

Crusader is kinda pointless unless you're limited by enchants because you're using the heirloom axe. Nuke a couple of the greens you get from trash and slap this on it.

I'm only at enchanting 300 just now so that will need to wait but I'll upgrade nearer the time :) Going to crack on to 76, about 1/4 away, then maybe in between 76-77 I'll get my enchanting up. I do have a good stack of blues in the bank I've been saving from my 70+ instance runs, but need to get to enchanting 325 for most of them.

On that note any good guides to levelling enchanting?

Prolly get someone in dala or IF to do it for you for 5g. If you have the mats for crusader put it on a weapon vellum and it should sell for 150g.

http://www.wow-professions.com/wowguides/wow-enchanting-guide.html isn't terrible

Thanks for both tips, will have a try at both tonight.

Got 3 righteous orbs in one Stratholme run today, they sell in the AH for around 40-55g on my server.

Be.imba should be the first stop, then WoW-Heroes. Be.imba is much more reliable. It's been around longer.

I've seen enough inconsistency from be.imba (and correlation between W-H, rawr and EJ) to discount it on my blood tank (suggesting resi on shoulder for a dk, lolwhut?) aff lock and protadin to safely discount it. It's immaterial how long the sites have been about, they both became popular in 2008 and have each served a purpose.

Good, Its more beneficial than the fiery one aswell.

Yeah, fiery is only good at low levels when that proc actually boosts your damage quite a bit. (10-19 PvP bracket is nice)

Got to 71 last night on my mage. 350 enchanting, 410 tailoring. Lovin' my big hits in Arcane. :D

Just need to get that damn Runed Adamantite Rod. ><

    • As I've been usually saying lately - we all can thank "AI" for this.
    • Friday Windows 11 preview builds are here. Insiders in the Experimental (formerly Dev) and Beta Channel can download builds 26300.8697 and 26220.8690. My Windows11 device on the Preview Channel just got 26220.8728. My guess is this build is a nightly update from 26220.8690.
    • Traffic has a surprisingly unexpected impact on your surroundings by Sayan Sen Image by Radik 2707 via Pexels A collaborative study by researchers from several Israeli institutions found that everyday pollution from traffic and industrial activity measurably changed the atmospheric electric field over the Tel Aviv metropolitan area, providing new evidence of how human activity can influence the lower atmosphere. The research was led by Dr. Roy Yaniv of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and the Gertner Institute at Sheba Medical Center, Dr. Assaf Hochman of the Fredy & Nadine Herrmann Institute of Earth Sciences at the Hebrew University, and Prof. Yoav Yair of Reichman University. The study also involved Itay Froomer, a student from Hadera High School and the Israeli Museum of Medicine and Science (Technoda), who carried out the work as part of the Ministry of Education's 5-unit physics research track. The researchers focused on the atmospheric electric field under fair-weather conditions. Even in the absence of storms, a weak electric field naturally exists between Earth's surface and the atmosphere. One of the main ways scientists measure this field is through the Potential Gradient (PG), which is the inverse of the vertical component of the electric field. PG is a key part of the global electric circuit, a planet-wide system of electrical currents maintained by thunderstorms and electrified clouds around the world. Scientists have long known that the atmospheric electric field can be influenced by factors ranging from large-scale atmospheric processes to local weather conditions such as dust, fog and clouds. Human-made pollution is also known to play a role, but understanding exactly how urban emissions affect the electric field close to the ground has remained an area of ongoing research. To investigate this relationship, the team analyzed measurements from a newly installed electric field mill, an instrument used to continuously monitor the strength of the atmospheric electric field. The instrument was installed at the Center for Technological Education (Roter House) in Holon and became operational in August 2024. It was funded by Israel's Ministry of Education and the Holon municipality. The electric field mill forms part of a broader monitoring network that includes nearby meteorological stations and air-quality monitoring sites. This allowed researchers to compare electric field measurements with detailed weather data and pollution records to better understand what was driving changes in the Potential Gradient. The study focused on two major urban pollutants: fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and nitrogen oxides (NOx), both commonly produced by vehicle traffic and industrial activity. PM2.5 refers to microscopic airborne particles small enough to remain suspended in the atmosphere for extended periods, while NOx is a group of gases released during fuel combustion. Researchers examined daily, weekly and seasonal patterns in the atmospheric electric field and compared them with changes in pollutant concentrations. Their analysis revealed a clear relationship between NOx levels and changes in the Potential Gradient, particularly during morning and evening rush hours when traffic emissions were at their highest. “What we observe is a direct physical link between emission peaks and electrical variability,” explained Dr. Roy Yaniv. “NOx reduces atmospheric conductivity very quickly, so the electric field responds almost instantaneously during traffic rush hours.” Atmospheric conductivity describes how easily electrical charges move through the air. According to the researchers, nitrogen oxides rapidly alter this conductivity, causing a near-immediate response in the electric field. PM2.5, however, was associated with a delayed response. The researchers attributed this difference to the particles' longer atmospheric residence time, meaning they remain in the atmosphere for longer periods, as well as their different microphysical interactions with surrounding air and atmospheric components. The study also identified a pronounced "weekend effect." In Israel, traffic volumes and some industrial activity decline significantly on Fridays and Saturdays. During these periods, concentrations of both NOx and PM2.5 dropped, and corresponding changes were observed in the atmospheric electric field. “The weekend signal demonstrates just how sensitive the electric field is to changes in human activity,” the researchers noted. “When emissions decline, the electrical environment adjusts at once, providing a high-resolution indicator of urban atmospheric conditions.” The findings showed that pollution levels can influence not only the chemical composition of the atmosphere but also its electrical properties. Researchers said the results strengthened the case for using atmospheric electricity as an additional tool for environmental monitoring, particularly in densely populated urban areas where anthropogenic, or human-caused, influences are most pronounced. The study also pointed to potential public health applications. By combining air-quality measurements with observations of atmospheric electricity, researchers said they could gain a more complete picture of how urban atmospheric conditions change over time. “Integrating air-quality data with electric-field measurements gives us a clearer picture of how the lower atmosphere evolves moment by moment,” the researchers added. “It’s a framework that can support both scientific insight and practical environmental decision-making.” Beyond the scientific findings, the project highlighted a collaboration between universities, public institutions and secondary education. Researchers said the work demonstrated how students could take part in real-world environmental research while contributing to studies of air quality, atmospheric processes and their potential effects on society.

    • We aren't even at the all-star game and Microsoft is talking about an update that will most likely be released during the World Series if not after. A lot can happen in the world between now and the 2026 World Series, including the 2026 FIFA Cup. Tell me about it again after the FIFA Cup is concluded. That should allow plenty of time to prepare for it.
    • Great, tell me when I have a "Bad Pool Caller" elsewhere not in Windoze.
