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. ><

    • You're absolutely right! No reason in hell these should be on the road!
    • They aren't going to want to. Most would just go with the 17 Pro and save money. Why would they want to spend $300 for basically the same thing? It's not worth it if there are hardly any changes from year to year.
    • 24H2 rolled out to the Release Preview Channel in early June 2024, so this coming a bit later in the Experimental Channel (formerly Dev) doesn't really say much more than earlier H2 releases that came out in October. I am not sure what the thinking is here by putting it in Experimental, one would think that the 26H2 stamp means features are locked down and it's now bug tested until October? I don't even pretend to understand Microsoft's strategy for Windows Insider Program though
    • Nothing Ear (a) and CMF Buds Pro 2 with active noise cancellation drop to lowest price ever by Fiza Ali With Prime Day 2026 scheduled to run from Tuesday 23 to Friday 26 June, Amazon has already begun rolling out early access offers ahead of the main event.

Additional features include IP54-rated earbuds for dust and splash resistance, paired with an IPX2-rated charging case. Furthermore, users also benefit from pinch controls, in-ear detection, Google Fast Pair, Microsoft Swift Pair, dual-device connectivity, and a low-latency mode designed for gaming and video playback.
