So I /gquit my guild today, continuing my guild hopping that I've been doing since November. Today I get replaced by another ret pally because I'm not performing up to what they expect of me. This was a hardcore guild though competing for server firsts. The raid schedule was also getting to me. I need to find a new guild that doesnt expect the absolute best, and is fine with the flaws I have in playing my character (not that their totally bad, but my damage is slightly lower than it should be).

It's kind of amazing how much things change in a month. Here's my last normal mode kill of conclave of wind (as in, I stopped doing it after this, i think this is 3 lockouts ago).

Time to kill him was basically 1/2 what the first kill took, you can largely ignore most of the mechanics, and there's very little risk of getting killed.

On the guild recruiting front:

  • We picked up a hunter, I find him annoying but he's friends with some people already.
  • We snagged a holy paladin, I have concerns that they're a fire-stander based on some of their logs but they're really inconclusive (sucks at cho'gall but good at gay dragons, so who knows)
  • We got rid of the trial mage/lock that couldn't stay alive worth a damn. They both came with passable 25-man experience (4/12 hard modes) but apparently you can be carried like nobody's business there

I"m just dumping unedited fraps captures of our kills on my youtube channel. So far none of the content has been particularly interesting.

lol just updated on wowprogress and I am number 50,000 in the world lol. Right at the cut off before you just get the 50K+. Over the last 2 weeks went through 9/12 got chogall down to 50% twice in our first night on him. Have not tied nef or al'akir yet.

We killed Cho, three weeks ago. Tonight was second night of attempts on Al'akir. Once you master P1 the fight is so much easier.. Only problem we are having now is people moving to far/not far enough during P3 for clouds. Last attempt both tanks and a healer were last ones up, took him down an additional 5% before we ran out of space. If they can stop being stupid, we'll have the kill here.

Edit: Yup. We got him. Easy peeasy.

Did your tanks ever say how hard they hit? I've seen them swimming around and was always curious. What did it drop for loot?

It drops absolutely nothing, but it gives you an achievement, and as far as how hard it hits, it hit me for 11 million damage (after the tank lost it's agro).. We wiped three times on the attempt before we got it. :happy:

11 million?! Sweet Jesus! I was swimming around Vash'jir today and bumped into one of those things. I about fell out of my chair!

Sucks it has no loot, but the achievement makes it worthwhile. Congratulations on the kill!

Past the halfway point in heroic content.

The encounter was substantially better pre-hotfixes. The enrage timer is too relaxed or the adds need more health. Either way, the fight has lost something since 2 months ago but it's at least reasonably fun the first time through. Sadly this one is going to go like conclaive or chimaeron where it just won't scale with gear and won't remain fun for long.

I'll package it up this weekend and post it somewhere, also heroic gay dragons down.

Apparently back to top 50 US 10-man, with any luck at all it'll be top 25 this week.

Certainly looks a nice UI, wouldn't mind trying too. I'm back playing after about 2 years out. 35 Druid and taking my time to level up although now wishing i was higher and back raiding! :(

You think you could do two configurations of it ?

The left and right sides are identical so there's no reason you couldn't move the threat/damage meter + raid frames to one side and the chat frame to the other one.

If I can easily set it up to work with Reflux then I'll do that. I think a better way to go might be just to make a handful of guides about how to configure the addons I use from scratch. The only addons that really matter are pitbull, bartender, quartz, satrina buff frames, vuhdo and power auras.

Reclaimed the #1 spot on the server despite doing 'harder hard modes' by killing robot council. I have a feeling one of the 25-man guilds is going to beat us to "blackwing's bane" but for now I'm going to enjoy my 15 minutes of fame. Kinda hoping somebody else gets it tomorrow night so we can go to work on getting 'of the four winds'. Al'akir and Sinestra seem like two fights that play to our strengths (throw more DPS at it), Nefarian is more of a healer check: something we've been kinda weak on since Ulduar. Our main competition has has the opposite strengths: strong healers but marginal DPS (marginal as in "only 3 ranked parses each", they're still good players)

I dumped my priest's UI and wtf folders on the web. You can download them if you like and try to copy settings appropriate to your character if you're so inclined.

Hit 82 on my hunter last night splitting questing time between Vash'jir and Hyjal. Playing him has been more fun then I remembered it being before though I attribute that to the nice long break I took from playing him. Hunters are still easier to quest with then mage's....at least for me they are.

I Hopefully the hunter will be 85 and then I can get him and the mage herioc geared soon...

omg the fake patch notes are so freaking funny

The best section imo

Firelands

An attunement quest for Firelands is now available! In order to be eligible for the upcoming raid, players must first encounter Deathwing while he is randomly attacking a zone and collect his leavings. Epic quest lines will also need to be completed to collect the leavings from the other Aspects to combine them into the Patty of the Five Flights ? the key to unlock the Elemental Plane of fire in the upcoming 4.2 patch.

Invisible walls have been added around all harmful ground effects.

All dungeon & raid bosses now have legs. If they already had legs, they got more legs.

In order to make the Cataclysm expansion appeal to all players? sense of nostalgia, shaman, druids and paladins may now only queue as healers when using the Dungeon Finder.

Tank Stimulus: Successfully completing 25 Dungeon Finder runs as a tank will grant you a $400 Federal tax credit. (Requires Form 8863)

To help ensure players are only using the Vote Kick feature for the greater good of the group, anyone who initiates a Vote Kick will be kicked themselves regardless if the vote passes or not.

Ever a player favorite, the level-80 10- and 25-player raid of Icecrown Citadel is being reintroduced as a level-85 Heroic 5-player dungeon.

    • Waymo recalls self-driving software after cars enter closed freeway work zones

      Wow, that could have been dangerous, certainly not ready for these things. They have to be 100% or pretty well close to it. Not that I will see one i doubt, never mind ride in one, they may have them in London, but I doubt they will come to where I live.
    • Nothing kills CMF Phone 2 Pro's successor due to rising memory prices

      By Hamid Ganji · Posted

      Nothing kills CMF Phone 2 Pro's successor due to rising memory prices by Hamid Ganji Storage and RAM prices have been rising over the past year, leading to a significant increase in the cost of electronics for customers around the world. Many companies are now revising their plans for upcoming devices due to higher component costs and overall production expenses. CMF is the latest company to cancel the successor to one of its best-selling phones due to rising memory prices. CMF is a sub-brand of Nothing and focuses on making budget smartphones for growing markets. The brand launched the CMF Phone 2 Pro last year with some eye-catching specifications and an affordable price. While many customers may have been waiting for a successor this year, one of the company’s executives has announced that CMF will not release a new smartphone this year. And AI is to blame. As Nothing co-founder Akis Evangelidis announced on X, the company has been working on a successor to the CMF Phone 2 Pro, but with current memory prices, it cannot “build a phone that feels like a genuine step forward at a price that makes sense for CMF.” So, no new CMF phone will be launched this year. Meanwhile, Evangelidis said the company still has several new products in the pipeline, including some in entirely new categories. He added that the Nothing brand will also continue launching new products through 2026. Budget smartphones are among the first victims of the surge in RAM and memory prices, as they have become more expensive to build. The sharp increase in memory costs could also reshape the traditional price ranges associated with budget phones. Apple CEO Tim Cook also recently said that price increases for some of the company’s products are unavoidable because RAM and memory have become significantly more expensive this year. Analysts estimate that the base price of the upcoming iPhone 18 Pro could rise to $1,399 due to current market shortages.
    • Windows 11 gets new audio improvements in the latest builds

      Nudge me when they bring back hardware audio acceleration so I can get my EAX 5 back. We've evolved graphics to real-time path tracing, but regressed audio some 15 years back in time with this stupid software audio stack.
    • Ocenaudio 3.19.4

      By Copernic · Posted

      Ocenaudio 3.19.4 by Razvan Serea  Ocenaudio is a full featured, fast and easy to use audio and music editor. It is the ideal software for people who need to edit and analyze audio files without complications. Ocenaudio also has powerful features that will please more advanced users. To assist ocenaudio development, a powerful toolset of audio editing, analysis and manipulation called Ocen Framework was created. ocenaudio is also based on Qt framework, a well known library for cross-platform development. Cross-platform support ocenaudio is available for all major operating systems: Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. Native applications are generated for each platform from a common source, in order to achieve excelent performance and seamless integration with the operating system. All versions of ocenaudio have a uniform set of features and the same graphical interface, so the skills you learn in one platform can be used in the others. VST plugins support Ocenaudio supports VST (Virtual Studio Technology) plugins, giving its users access to numerous effects. Like the native effects, VST effects can use real-time preview to aide configuration. Real-time preview of effects Applying effects such as EQ, gain and filtering is an important part of audio editing. However, it is very tricky to get the desired result by adjusting the controls configuration alone: you must listen the processed audio. To ease the configuration of audio effects, ocenaudio has a real time preview feature: you hear the processed signal while adjusting the controls. The effect configuration window also includes a miniature view of the selected audio signal. You can navigate on this miniature view in the same way as you do on the main interface, selecting parts that interest you and listening to the effect result in real time. Multiselection for delicate editions To speed up complex audio files editing, ocenaudio includes multi-selection. With this amazing tool, you can simultaneously select different portions of an audio file and listen, edit or even apply an effect to them. For example, if you want to normalize only the excerpts of an interview where the interviewee is talking, just select them and apply the effect. Eficient edition of large files With ocenaudio, there is no limit to the length or the quantity of the audio files you can edit. Using an advanced memory management system, the application keeps your files open without wasting any of your computer's memory. Even in files several hours long, common editing operations such as copy, cut or paste happen almost instantly. Fully featured spectrogram Besides offering an incredible waveform view of your audio files, ocenaudio has a powerful and complete spectrogram view. In this view, you can analyze the spectral content of your audio signal with maximum clarity. Advanced users will be surprised to find that the spectrogram settings are applied in real time. The display is updated immediately when altering features such as the number of frequency bands, window type and size and dynamic range of the display. Ocenaudio 3.19.4 changelog: Adds fallback fonts so every language and symbol displays correctly Improves autosave and session recovery stability Improves region navigation and display Fixes a crash when the level meter is used on displays with a scaling greater than 200% Fixes memory corruption when using the silence selection tools Fixes crashes when closing a file while effects are still being processed Fixes a freeze when applying effects to many files at once (macOS) Fixes crashes related to audio devices on Windows Fixes invalid file names when exporting regions whose label is used as the file name Other bug fixes and improvements Download: Ocenaudio 64-bit | Portable | ~40.0 MB (Freeware) Download: Ocenaudio for Linux and Mac OS View: Ocenaudio Homepage | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
