MAJOR Spoilers...

It's upto part 18 so far..

The Worgen starting area.

The guy is a bit of a moron sometimes, but ..

OH MY GOD I CANNOT WAIT TO PLAY THIS.

I cannot wait to be a Worgen druid. They fit my personality and my previous wow personalities so .. so well.

They are everything I have ever wanted in a WoW race.

I am so excited.

Thanks guys, yeah i used QuestHelper, is Carbonite better?

I definitely prefer it mostly because of the map. Overall, it has some great features that really make it an all-in-one addon.

The punks list is also incredible. Let's you see the opposing faction that's nearby (grabbed through the combat log). Also automatically pings areas where the opposing faction is being picked up by other people with the addon. Make great when on PvP servers. :yes: (inb4 HUURRRR DATS CHEAP)

Just thought I'd throw that bit in there since it's one of the more overlooked features of the addon. :)

I love Worgen and Gilneas is beautiful. My main is an Night Elf Druid so I feel kinda "close" to worgen, but to this day I'm still hesitating about which class I should play when Cataclysm is released. Looking at the classes available to a worgen : death knight, druid, warrior, hunter, mage, priest, rogue, and warlock, I can eliminate druid, dk, rogue, priest and warlock as those are either incoherent with my perception of a worgen or I already play them. So I have to choose between : mage, warrior and hunter. Mage is a no-go as it's too weak and a worgen can't be weak, hunters mmyeh maybe ... so really warrior is the only interesting choice.

What's your take on this ? Will you be rolling as a Worgen, and if it's the case which class are you going to play ?

I'd imagine it depends on the specs of the Mac compared to the specs of the PC.

On the exact same hardware I find that the Mac edition runs more 'consistently' than Windows. My peak performance on Windows is higher than a Mac, but when things slow down they are also much worse on Windows.

There are minor niceties that work on the OS X edition that aren't present on Windows (ie: screen recording) and over-all it makes the experience better.

I raid playing on Windows, but only because that's the computer connected to my TV now, I prefer to play on my notebook.

Working on Heroic 25 LK... whats everyone else up to? 5 min break.

Halion 25 heroic: we're failing at phase 3 tonight. Our rank for failing at cutters ('team edward') has like 8 people in it.

Palys aren't casting freedom and people are dropping down-stairs consumption in the wrong place or being slow to run out

after dropping it.

Half of my real-id friend's comments are "lyrics from sad-kid songs" but it's starting to get old now that we're up to fail #8 or something.

dks have non existent dps?

I've seen dk's top 8k.

8k is nothing now; In our 25 man we run (normally) 2 DK's; 1 tank + 1 DPS; DPS easily reaches 11k and I've seen close to 14k DPS on certain occasions. But yes, the point is the same - any class, including DKs are great when played properly.

i will not

Twilight has no place in WoW

i will learn to hate Worgen more than i already hate DKs and their sub standard tanking and non existent DPS

Oh Q_Q.

Learn your lore.

The Worgen were in the Warcraft Universe prior to those crappy books and if you think they weren't you need to look them up. They existed in the Second War.

If I could +1 you I would, WoW Lore (I'm not that into but I still know it) was way before the Twilight Saga; Vanilla WoW had them implemented already and the Worgen City was just off limits until Cataclysm. L2 wow before ya bash it. Now something thats been in the game since the beginning will become playable.

i never said that Worgen were all of a sudden added into the game (tho i can see how that could have been interpreted from what i said)

i'm fully aware they have always been there, i remember killing them in dark shire (i don't know about lore, don't really care)

doesn't change the way i feel about them

my theory is just that Activision wants to throw Worgen into the game to grab that teeny-bopper-twilight crowd

just like the BE was added because AMG HAWT ANIME CHARACTERS I'M LIKE GOKU OVER 9000

horde where crying so much after BEs. all the kids switched over and they got all the crap DPS and started losing all the BGs

and ya, 99% of the DKs i group with are total scrubs

i hate them

and ya, 99% of the DKs i group with are total scrubs

i hate them

Shame you're not playing with very good people or put it another way: 99% of all players are crap.

We have one tank (switched from DPS a few weeks ago) that handles the most difficult content without any issues being kept alive or holding threat. Likewise we've got A DPS who averages 15k on bosses of all kinds (putricide, marrowgar, saurfang, deathwhisper, etc).

Not that ICC is particularly difficult content any more, but if the whole game is easy and any given person can do it then it's hard to make the case that one person is crap and another isn't when they're both making out just fine.

Also, twilight cutters are hilarious.

    • Microsoft will soon allow some users to block Copilot from analyzing their Office files by Usama Jawad Microsoft Purview is a pretty useful data governance, security, and management service that allows customers to gain enhanced visibility and control over their content. It's meant for commercial customers, such as organizations that are storing data at scale. As AI continues to expand and infiltrate every corner of a firm, many are a bit conscious about the technology gaining access to their confidential data. Microsoft is now making a configuration change that will allow such customers to rest easy. Right now, users within an organization have the option to apply Purview sensitivity labels (when available) to secure certain files and label them as such. For example, if you apply the "Confidential" label on an Excel file, the file will be encrypted, and a "confidential" watermark will be applied to it. So, if this file is shared with anyone, they are aware that its access is supposed to be restricted. Up until now, Microsoft was allowing some connected experiences, like its AI services, to analyze files, regardless of their sensitivity label. This is of major concern to most organizations, as a recent example highlighted how confidential emails with data loss prevention (DLP) policies like privacy labels were being uploaded to Copilot for analysis. As such, Microsoft is updating an existing Purview data label sensitivity setting that prevents "some connected experiences that analyze content", from being blocked completely from doing this. The label isn't changing, but the blocking is now being enforced across all connected services (including Copilot and other AI tools), and now extends to Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. Files with the label applied already will get this enhancement automatically too once it becomes available. Microsoft has urged IT admins to inform their respective helpdesk and compliance teams, update internal documentation, and review sensitivity labels to ensure that they meet their respective compliance needs. This change is tagged as MC1297982 in the Message Center. General availability is scheduled to begin in a phased manner soon and will complete by the end of next month. That said, it is important to note that this only applies to commercial customers who have a license that allows them to use Purview.

    • All versions is correct. The bug appears on any version of Windows with KB5094126 installed. It's a little insane to expect the author to explain that systems that can't possibly have that patch installed, will not experience the bug. If you have any gripe about the title, it would be that it doesn't mention the update at all, but I wouldn't agree with that either. A title is not expected to be a full summery of the article.
