I've been denied from weekly runs of Patchwerk because I didn't have 6k GS. I did Naxx still with 2xt5 and a bunch of blues/70 epics.

Because GS is bullsh*t, and any good player knows that. Sadly, GS is a way, in addition to achievements, sort through inexperience TO AN EXTENT, though that raid leader had to be a dumb@$$ to not lower their requirement(s) for the tier of the raid you were forming for...6k GS for Naxx? lulz

Wow I haven't played this game in a while. I only have like 3k gold in the bank, trying to get the Battered Hilt to drop or buy it since I don't have time to play a ton anymore.

I am just playing very casually from now on until Cataclysm comes out because nothing you do now except get gold will really matter once the expansion comes out. Unless you count achievements.

Sad to think, by halfway through the first new leveling zone all the gear we've grinded for so hard will be meaningless. :(

And by hard, I mean lazily moving to the left or right slightly in pretty much every boss encounter in ICC and clearing it all in under 2 hours Tuesday night, then wasting away the week because no one logs on for heroics.

Gear was never valuable: the fun that you had collecting it with friends is what matters. The only thing I liked about having Tier 2 and

3, or TIer 6/6.5 to level with is that I didn't have to use the "mandatory leveling clown suit" that less progressed players get handed.

My gear looks pretty cool but I'm not going to miss it at all when I start to replace it.

Have you got RS25h and LK25h yet? Sure the first 11 in ICC 25 are a joke now, even on hard mode but the two last encounters are pretty fun.

If you can't get people to log in for hard mode attempts just start by blowing your first day on an extended raid lock out and working on them.

Move "Free loot tuesday" to wednesday.

I wouldnt bother getting the battered hilt. People pug TOC everyday, I'm sure you can get a weapon from there and save the 10K gold.

It sucks being on a lesser populated server, we've pretty much siphoned all the talent pool we can.

Extending it just makes them never log in, we've even tried tricking them-but it just causes them to log in, then magically lose all internet access 5 minutes into the raid night. Wed has pretty much just become our alt 10M H night, because no one likes licking 25M LK Hs taint apparently.

We've even started selling runs to lesser guilds that still need Kingslayers, just because our own can't get their **** together and just log in and bite the bullet.

I'm trying to rally the troops (as it were) for the last of the "hard" achievements. Dedicated Insanity, Herald, and Immortality.

I think the last of those would be the most impressive as less than 10 guilds world-wide have it today and hardly anybody is motivated to try.

Hey guys I used zomgbuffs for my Paladin, but what should I use for my Druid for auto-buff casting (self/group)?

zomgbuffs said it works for other classes but for some reason I can't get self buffs working with my Druid.

Thanks

Omgz helped myself, SmartBuff works great (Y)

I know it's annoying, but what are the addons at the bottom of your screen? The frames, button bars, chat and some sort of general status that goes across the screen?

My own customization of tukui - http://www.tukui.org/

V11 is going to be more user friendly as you can see on the main page, quite a bit of manual user editing of files just now.

Bit busy just now but I'll list all the additional addons I use a bit later and probably throw my user directory up in a rar file if you want my settings.

That'd be great. I've seen those frames before just never knew what they were called.

Incredibly lazy of Blizzard to change the caster skins for Druid but not the animations (using maul/etc)..... That's the kind of things you don't pay money for a month.

A WTF moment indeed, there's no end to complaints..

I don't know how long were you a Druid, but many of us were extremely happy with the new form skins, we didn't ask for much, now you want new animations ?

It's not lazy, it's redundant, why would they change something that works ?

You make it sound like you're disappointed by this, when you should be happy with what we got, how many years did they ignore our pleas ? Let's not be greedy here xD

We're not looking for a DK at the moment but the standard fair "exceptional players always welcome" applies. We have two regular DKs and one trialing as DW frost whom I expect will be accepted. If you've got gear on par with Fainn you'd probably be able to find a spot as a backup but a full time spot probably isn't open right now (we're casual but consistent so relatively few open raider spots).

If you've moved on from "We're crappy healers, worthless DPS, free kills in PVP, and only useful on one fight as a tank (soaking hatefuls on patchwerk at 60)" to "we should look even more cool when we're smacking things" then I think you've made out just fine.

    • But the reality is it will work for people's needs, and they don't care about the technology that makes it. Clearly not everyone's needs, but that low end space where personal laptops were only used to type emails, watch content and browse websites, but they didn't want to do that on a small screen device. Heck, writing that out I can now see the connection and reason it'll do so well. Apple is about experience. If the experience is bad, they don't release it. Low end Windows laptop manufacturers up until this point have not taken that into consideration ever before, so slow laggy usage with brittle slimey plastic shells were common. I hope that the low end space at least creates better physical products that last a bit longer, and if Microsoft get their act together, they could also have a solid OS on such low end hardware that would actually make the experience work for what the hardware was intended for. The fact that the CPU is a "cellphone", sorry mobile phone processor is irrelevant. It's about the experience, and so far, that sounds quite solid.
    • Hello, Bonjour is Apple's implementation of a multicast-DNS service, which allows devices running Apple's software and/or hardware to find each other on your local network.  I believe the Windows version was last updated around 2010. If you do not need it, you can stop and disable the Bonjour service in the Services Control Manager (filename: SERVICES.MSC).  Once you have done that, the operating system will no longer attempt to load the service.

    • This AMD RX 9070 16GB GPU that performs close to Nvidia 5070 is under $600 by Sayan Sen With the memory shortage that's prevalent nowadays, discounts are super-hard to get. As such we post good deals whenever they pop up. Recently, we covered a few great discounts on SSDs wherein you can get a 4TB TeamGroup NVMe PCIe Gen4 drive for just $400 thanks to a special coupon. If you want a faster product but don't need all that capacity, you can also opt for Samsung's 990 PRO 2TB that is on sale for its lowest price in over three months. Let's say though that you are on the hunt for a 1440p gaming card. In that case AMD's RX 9070 non-XT can help, and with its 16GB VRAM, you can also run AI models locally without worrying about bottlenecking (check out our recent 9070 GRE reviews for gaming and productivity to get an idea). The PowerColor Reaper variant of the RX 9070 is currently on sale for just $580 which is a very good price in the current state of affairs (purchase link under the specs table down below). The Reaper cooler on this 9070 uses a triple‑fan design with ring‑blade fans, paired with premium dual ball bearings to extend lifespan and reduce friction. "Intelligent" fan control allows the fans to remain idle at lower temperatures, only spinning up when the GPU is under load. A nickel‑plated copper base makes direct contact with both the GPU and memory modules, helping to spread heat evenly. PowerColor also applies Honeywell PTM7950 phase‑change thermal interface material (TIM), which fills microscopic gaps between the die and heatsink for more efficient thermal transfer. The fan shroud is shorter in height as the firm has made it such that it can be used in certain SFF (small form factor) cases. The technical specifications of the Reaper RX 9070 are given in the table below: Specification Value Stream Processors 3584 Units Video Memory 16GB GDDR6 Memory Speed 20.0 Gbps Memory Interface 256-bit Engine Clock Game Clock: up to 2070 MHz Boost Clock: up to 2520 MHz Bus Standard PCI Express 5.0 x16 Display Connectors 1 x HDMI 2.1b, 3 x DisplayPort 2.1a Maximum Resolution DisplayPort: 7680 × 4320 HDMI: 7680 × 4320 Board Dimensions 289mm × 111mm × 41mm 304mm × 127mm × 42mm (with bracket) Slot 2 Minimum System Power Requirement 600W Power Connectors Two 8-pin PCI Express Get the PowerColor Reaper RX 9070 at the links below (you get only a 90-day warranty on Woot): PowerColor Reaper Radeon RX 9070 16GB Graphics Card (RX9070 16G-A): $579.99 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US) (Was: $700) PowerColor Reaper Radeon RX 9070 16GB Graphics Card (RX9070 16G-A): $559.99 (Sold and Shipped by Woot US) Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • Are they marketed as an entry into astronomy or astrophotography? I do astrophotography. With big rigs, lots of computers, cables and headaches. I love it. And by learning this ridiculously complex hobby, I’ve learned about the objects I’m shooting. Astronomy followed from photography.
    • Microsoft confirms Recycle Bin bug across all versions of Windows by Usama Jawad A couple of days ago, we reported that the latest Patch Tuesday update has seemingly resulted in a lot of issues for many users, including OneDrive and Dropbox access problems, BitLocker recovery lockouts, and BSODs. Although Microsoft is yet to acknowledge these bugs, it has confirmed another, relatively smaller issue across all supported versions of Windows. In an update on its Windows Release Health Dashboard, Microsoft has confirmed that after installing June's Patch Tuesday update (KB5094126), you'll experience unexpected behavior when leveraging Recycle Bin. Basically, when you attempt to delete an item from the Recycle Bin, the confirm dialog will show you the internal file name of that content rather than the actual name. For example, the file may be named abc.png, but the confirm dialog will ask if you're sure that you want to permanently delete $Rxxxxx.png from the Recycle Bin. This is pretty much it for the scope of the bug itself; it just displays the wrong name in the confirm dialog. The correct name will be shown in the list view of the Recycle Bin and if you restore the file, it will return with the correct name as well. This issue affects pretty much all supported versions of Windows client and server, including: Client: Windows 11, version 26H1; Windows 11, version 25H2; Windows 11, version 24H2; Windows 11, version 23H2; Windows 10, version 22H2; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2021; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2019; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSB 2016 Server: Windows Server 2025; Windows Server 2022; Windows Server 2019; Windows Server 2016; Windows Server 2012 R2; Windows Server 2012 As things currently stand, Microsoft is working on a concrete solution that will be released in a "future" Windows update. It remains to be seen if the firm will wait till the next Patch Tuesday or roll out an out-of-band (OOB) fix. The good news is that commercial customers can deploy a workaround right now, but they will have to reach out to Microsoft Support for Business for additional details.
