Just wondered, to anybody in the BETA at the moment. Has anybody had the chance to do the alliance quest chain in the Western Plaguelands to do with Andorhal. Apparently the Horde get to retake it and see some tasty banshee-queen lore, and I was wondering if there is an alliance counterpart, and we also get to take it back as from what I have seen pre-phase it's a third Alliance, a third Horde and a third Scourge. Also is Chromie still there, as I will NOT miss the quest to kill temporal maggots.

You know when you login to WoW and you discover it's your lucky day ? awesome randoms, terrific loot, making new friends, finishing that hard quest you were trying for days ? Well it happened to me yesterday, and I thought "what the hell, i'm gonna push my luck and see if I got in the Cata Beta", so I logged in to battle.net and ... nope, no beta for me :'(

That was my useless post of the day.

Blizzard doesn't love you that much. :p

I've used Bagnon for a long time now, it doesn't actually sort by type does it? You can only search by the item(s) names.

As far as I know of.. there is no way how to sort by pvp / pve gear. It's just "armor" to the game.

The only thing that differentiates it is the stats, and therefore the game can't "separate" it even with user add-ons unless it's an add-on that specifies the type of armor PER class, PER armor type.

And that's a lot of coding and time.

You sure said that

And I hate to smack you in your face but Activision has NOTHING to do with Blizzard. They are a distribution company. That's it. They are wholy separate entities than Blizzard. The only reason in a conjoined merger is because it's beneficial to both companies to have resources between the companies that they can share and utilize. Ideas wise, Blizzard is Blizzard and Activision is Activison. Pull your head out of the clouds and realize that ALL Warcraft information, etc are retained by Blizzard. Activision has no rights whatsoever to the properties. They have as much right to the franchise, it's story, and it's lore as you, or I.

And if you're so upset about the Worgen, name another race of things that the Alliance can get from either the First or Second War.. hell I'll be so generous as to say the Third war, even though WoW is set somewhere in the middle of Warcraft 2 and 3. I'll be waiting as you really can't name one other than the Pandaren.

A forewarning though: Please don't play with people who read Lore daily, and have been praised by blue posters for their knowledge about it, you will be stomped on and embarrassed.

Blizzard and Activison are one. They merged. http://en.wikipedia....vision_Blizzard

Blizzard merged with Vivendi Universal Games, which was then bought out by Activision, taking Blizzard in the deal.

Any bag addon that sorts or lets you search your bags / bank by PvE and or PvP gear?

BankStack. Love it. It sorts bags, bank, and guild bank tabs. :) If you use Combuctor (the Bagnon author's other bag addon) you can get an extra tab addon for it that will show you only gear you have in a set. That's about as close as you can get AFAIK.

He's well aware of this fact, he mentioned it in his post.

Activision aren't above Blizzard, they merged, hence they're equal in their say. So Blizzard is still running things in WoW, not Activision - at least game-wise, not talking about administrative management, like oh say, firing people.

July 10, 2008 -- Paris, France and Santa Monica, CA - Vivendi (Euronext Paris: VIV) and Activision, Inc. (Nasdaq: ATVI) today announced the completion of the transaction announced on December 2, 2007 to create Activision Blizzard, as the world's most profitable pure-play online and console game publisher. Activision Blizzard was formed by combining Activision, one of the world's leading independent publishers of interactive entertainment, and Vivendi Games, Vivendi's interactive entertainment business, which includes Blizzard Entertainment's® World of Warcraft®, the world's #1 subscription-based massively multiplayer online role-playing game. Activision Blizzard will continue to operate as a public company traded on Nasdaq under the ticker ATVI.

Activision and Blizzard still operate as separate entities. Activision Blizzard doesn't actually publish anything. They're the holding company. (I'm agreeing.)

On topic: Ding on my 5th 80 cow. :D

It's pretty much one single stat - Resilience. If it's got it it's pvp, if it doesn't then it's pve or vendor spec.

Pretty much, if someone wants to, they could also manually code which names/armors are considerer PVP and whatnot, and there are plenty of people around that would do something like that if they felt like it. :p

Yeah I know that, because I'm a player, but, a mod can't tell if a piece of armor has resilience or not.

That's the point I was trying to make.

He was looking for a mod to filter between PVP and PVE gear, and I said there is no mod that can differentiate between the two because of the way the game sees gear.. it just sees it as "gear" as a whole.

Make sense?

      While I agree with all that, it just proves there's an a** built for every seat.
    • Epic Games says Unreal Engine 6 will help developers "build content faster" using AI models

      Lol are you mad because I'm not using AI? I'd rather pay people than lose a bunch of potential customers and get humilated because I used AI. A lot of people won't purchase a game if it used AI during development.
    • LibreWolf 152.0-1

      By Copernic · Posted

      LibreWolf 152.0-1 by Razvan Serea LibreWolf is an independent “fork” of Firefox, with the primary goals of privacy security and user freedom. It is the community run successor to LibreFox. LibreWolf is designed to increase protection against tracking and fingerprinting techniques, while also including a few security improvements. This is achieved through our privacy and security oriented settings and patches. LibreWolf also aims to remove all the telemetry, data collection and annoyances, as well as disabling anti-freedom features like DRM. LibreWolf features: Latest Firefox — LibreWolf is compiled directly from the latest build of Firefox Stable. You will have the the latest features, and security updates. Independent Build — LibreWolf uses a build independent of Firefox and has its own settings, profile folder and installation path. As a result, it can be installed alongside Firefox or any other browser. No phoning home — Embedded server links and other calling home functions are removed. In other words, minimal background connections by default. User settings updates Extensions firewall: limit internet access for extensions. Multi-platform (Windows/Linux/Mac/and soon Android) Community-Driven Dark theme (classic and advanced) LibreWolf privacy features: Delete cookies and website data on close. Include only privacy respecting search engines like DuckDuckGo and Searx. Include uBlockOrigin with custom default filter lists, and Tracking Protection in strict mode, to block trackers and ads. Strip tracking elements from URLs, both natively and through uBO. Enable dFPI, also known as Total Cookie Protection. Enable RFP which is part of the Tor Uplift project. RFP is considered the best in class anti-fingerprinting solution, and its goal is to make users look the same and cover as many metrics as possible, in an effort to block fingerprinting techniques. Always display user language as en-US to websites, in order to protect the language used in the browser and in the OS. Disable WebGL, as it is a strong fingerprinting vector. Prevent access to the location services of the OS, and use Mozilla's location API instead of Google's API. Limit ICE candidates generation to a single interface when sharing video or audio during a videoconference. Force DNS and WebRTC inside the proxy, when one is being used. Trim cross-origin referrers, so that they don't include the full URI. Disable link prefetching and speculative connections. Disable disk cache and clear temporary files on close. Disable form autofill. Disable search and form history...and more. LibreWolf 152.0-1 changelog: Upstream release, see the Firefox 152.0 Release Notes Notable changes: The AppImages are now built on Codeberg along with the other releases We have decided to wait a bit longer to enable the settings redesign, due to use being aware of multiple upstream issues Download: LibreWolf 64-bit | Portable 64-bit | ~100.0 MB (Open Source) Download: ARM64 | Portable ARM64 Links: LibreWolf Home Page | Addons | Screenshot | Reddit Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware

      "I know for a fact I'll never own one of these." This is why choice is better than government regulation. Globaly Android has something like 72% of the smartphone market. Granted the vast majority of that is low end phones. Apple can and should charge whatever they want. The market will decide if it is too much.
