Anyone have a scroll of resurrection to spare? I think my sub date is later than the cut off for the benefits of the mount/level 80 char/ect, but I'd still appreciate if someone can throw one my way.

Is there anyway to add steady shot (I know it's /cast steady shot) to this hunter macro?

/petattack

/cast Hunter's Mark

/startattack

If I replace /startattack with steady shot it does nothing, just keeps casting hunters mark each time I click it. If I add it after /startattack it does nothing either.

I want my pet to attack, a hunters mark to be cast and then steady shot to be cast.

edit: Ahh don't think it's possible due to global cooldowns.

/castsequence should help

This is the macro I use for my hunter.

Marksmanship Macro


/castsequence [mod]Aimed Shot;reset=target Serpent Sting,Hunter's Mark,null
/castsequence Steady Shot
/castsequence Kill Command,Chimera Shot,Arcane Shot
/castsequence reset=120 Rapid Fire,Readiness,Chimera Shot,Chimera Shot,Rapid Fire
/cast Kill Shot
[/CODE]

Survival Macro

[CODE]
/castsequence [mod] Arcane Shot;reset=target Serpent Sting, Hunter's Mark,null
/castsequence Cobra Shot
/castsequence reset=5 Kill Command,Explosive Shot,Explosive Shot
/castsequence Black Arrow
/castsequence Rapid Fire
/cast Kill Shot
/use 13
/use 14
[/CODE]

Each macro will use Serpent Sting then cast Hunter's Mark and go into the rotation. The initial two (ss/hm) are only cast once unless I switch targets. My pet automatically attacks the target once I start the macro, so there is no need for /petattack.

Just started playing again a couple of days ago, hadn't played since 4.1. Got back into it pretty quickly on my DK, decided to go level my archaeology and got the fossilized raptor and I got a souldrinker on my first normal DS so I'm pretty chuffed :)

Anyone kinda think the final Deathwing fight (Madness) is a bit lame for an end of expansion boss?

Not the most epic fight so far, Illidan and The Lich King were awesome compared to this :/

So I never did his back part, as the LFR I joined was already at the final stage, but I really enjoyed the fight. Maybe doing Illidan at 80 had less of an impact on me but i was mainly just mad we killed him. I thought there were so many other ways that could have ended, like his freaking brother showing up, that I didn't like it. I do agree though that Arthas was way better, and as time moves up I like LK more and more for the story content that was delivered. On a recent alt I did all the quest in stormpike and loved the hell out of it as well as the major quest line in dragonblight and BT. Of course the intro cinematic will go down as my favorite for a long time as well.

Lich King wasn't a terrible end boss encounter. I'm a fan of Sunwell but I'll be the first to admit that from a 'health of the game' perspective the instance was flawed. Go back and look at posts from ~2008 and see how many people in this thread were able to actually see the second boss in the instance (never mind actually clear the place). I had a lot of fun there but it was a huge expense that was largely wasted on the top 0.5%.

Tier 11 was excellent - if you didn't get a chance to see it at an appropriate level of gear (and didn't get a chance to see the heroic 10m stuff, because some encounters were just better?more challenging, and more fun?on that size) you missed out on stuff that, at least in my opinion, sits beside Sunwell in terms of awesomeness (but did so without the class-stacking absurdity). Al'akir, Sinestra, or Twilight Council as the final boss would have been brilliant - I'd argue the later two are still harder than heroic madness (especially on 25m which is as big a joke at 0% as 10m is at 20%)

Tier 12 went to hell for me after the nerfs: the heroic bosses just aren't fun when they can't hurt you. Pre-nerf I think beth'tilac, alysrazor, and ragnaros were pretty solid. Rag was head-and-shoulders above the others but they were alright. Our very first domo kill we did "legitimately" (that is taking slashes then cat jumps, then more slashes) and that made the encounter pretty exciting. Our second kill we learned about the "no slashes" strategy and that kinda ruined it. Ragnaros as a final end boss for the expansion would have been brilliant.

Tier 13 was not great content. I blame LFR for giving us simple "A -> B -> A -> B" encounters that the random goons could complete without explanation. They couldn't give as an encounter like Twilight Council or Heroic Rag with multiple different phases and mechanics per encounter. They also couldn't give us "you need to trust a few people not to screw up" mechanics (like gong-clicking, or nef's pillar killing/interrupting) everything had to be bland. It's so dull, that even with the buff off nobody in my guild is enjoying the stuff - I can't even convince them to farm it in order to sell mounts (20k gold/hour/person and it's still not worth doing). IMO the best encounter in there are 10m hagara, 25m pre-nerf yorsahj (it's just a numbers check, the 10% HP nerf in december killed it), and gunship (either size).

If they'd have forced you to do heroic gunship while doing the achivement (no little circles hit the boat) the encounter would have been one of the best of this expansion, but they didn't so it was bad.

As someone who has had guild trouble(******* GMs, falling apart, just getting busy) I real like LFR. But they should have taken the time to make the non-lfr fights more complicated. I really liked working my way through T11 pre-nerfs even though I never did heroics. A lot of fights just had a lot going on that made then fun.

Yeah, I agree with ya. I played before the nerfs as well. Was annoying having people give me crap for playing as a frost mage, but they quickly shut up when they saw the level of control I brought to the fights. Cho'gall and Maloriak were my favorites in particular for that spec. :]

I have a few level 85 characters I play on a daily basis, but I don't know if maybe im getting burned out or not, I just dont find the fights really fun anymore. The past 5 days I have gotten more enjoyment out of farming herbs on my tauren druid, and playing the undercut game on the AH. Its quite funny actually, people always try to get me by a gold or two, and I just move all of my auctions around 20g lower than theirs is. So far, in 3 days (around an hour a day) I have earned close to 5000g from just farming Whiptail, and selling it for 25g a stack, Heartblossom form 50g a stack, and Volital Life's for 25g/10. This (for some stupid reason) is actually making me relax and calm down after work. And i'm making gold for MoP. In case anyone is wondering, my druid is on Stormreaver. It gets interesting on a pvp server trying to farm as well, but for the most part no one messes with you.

Adam's guild is very different from what I'm used to - it's fun, but probably not the sort of group I could see being my main group. The people are cool but the priorities are very different: I wouldn't last if I tried to main-raid there. Still, my guild is dead so helping some people finish up an expansion seems like a pretty good use of my gear. We've always more-or-less shut down between tiers or between expansions because for the most part we're only interested in raiding. Everyone's got more gold than god - they've seen all the content too. In the middle of a tier we can justify farming for 9 months by saying we're preparing for the race next tier - but at the end of an expansion that just isn't true.

I'm selling my last mount this week. I agreed to take cash-monies ($400) instead of gold to sell 2 madness titles + mount + gurglethurgle (if it dropped) to some healer priest and her warrior boyfriend. They were supposed to provide a 7/8h lockout and we'd just do a quick 25m kill to get them their stuff. They brought us a 10m lockout and then it kinda went down hill from there: 3 hours of wiping on platform 4 or head phase because we just couldn't carry 2 useless people on 10m. I'm tempted to return the money and just call it off: it was unbelievably demoralizing - to the point I'll probably not do that encounter again. I like the fact that I can pay for my play time by being "skilled" but sometimes it's just not worth it. $25 for 15 minutes of "fun" is a deal. $80 for 3-6+ hours of "work" is terrible.

    • Windows 11 version 26H2 is now available for testing in the latest preview build

      By +TRS-80 · Posted

      Friday Windows 11 preview builds are here. Insiders in the Experimental (formerly Dev) and Beta Channel can download builds 26300.8697 and 26220.8690. My Windows11 device on the Preview Channel just got 26220.8728. My guess is this build is a nightly update from 26220.8690.
    • Traffic has a surprisingly unexpected impact on your surroundings

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      Traffic has a surprisingly unexpected impact on your surroundings by Sayan Sen Image by Radik 2707 via Pexels A collaborative study by researchers from several Israeli institutions found that everyday pollution from traffic and industrial activity measurably changed the atmospheric electric field over the Tel Aviv metropolitan area, providing new evidence of how human activity can influence the lower atmosphere. The research was led by Dr. Roy Yaniv of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and the Gertner Institute at Sheba Medical Center, Dr. Assaf Hochman of the Fredy & Nadine Herrmann Institute of Earth Sciences at the Hebrew University, and Prof. Yoav Yair of Reichman University. The study also involved Itay Froomer, a student from Hadera High School and the Israeli Museum of Medicine and Science (Technoda), who carried out the work as part of the Ministry of Education's 5-unit physics research track. The researchers focused on the atmospheric electric field under fair-weather conditions. Even in the absence of storms, a weak electric field naturally exists between Earth's surface and the atmosphere. One of the main ways scientists measure this field is through the Potential Gradient (PG), which is the inverse of the vertical component of the electric field. PG is a key part of the global electric circuit, a planet-wide system of electrical currents maintained by thunderstorms and electrified clouds around the world. Scientists have long known that the atmospheric electric field can be influenced by factors ranging from large-scale atmospheric processes to local weather conditions such as dust, fog and clouds. Human-made pollution is also known to play a role, but understanding exactly how urban emissions affect the electric field close to the ground has remained an area of ongoing research. To investigate this relationship, the team analyzed measurements from a newly installed electric field mill, an instrument used to continuously monitor the strength of the atmospheric electric field. The instrument was installed at the Center for Technological Education (Roter House) in Holon and became operational in August 2024. It was funded by Israel's Ministry of Education and the Holon municipality. The electric field mill forms part of a broader monitoring network that includes nearby meteorological stations and air-quality monitoring sites. This allowed researchers to compare electric field measurements with detailed weather data and pollution records to better understand what was driving changes in the Potential Gradient. The study focused on two major urban pollutants: fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and nitrogen oxides (NOx), both commonly produced by vehicle traffic and industrial activity. PM2.5 refers to microscopic airborne particles small enough to remain suspended in the atmosphere for extended periods, while NOx is a group of gases released during fuel combustion. Researchers examined daily, weekly and seasonal patterns in the atmospheric electric field and compared them with changes in pollutant concentrations. Their analysis revealed a clear relationship between NOx levels and changes in the Potential Gradient, particularly during morning and evening rush hours when traffic emissions were at their highest. “What we observe is a direct physical link between emission peaks and electrical variability,” explained Dr. Roy Yaniv. “NOx reduces atmospheric conductivity very quickly, so the electric field responds almost instantaneously during traffic rush hours.” Atmospheric conductivity describes how easily electrical charges move through the air. According to the researchers, nitrogen oxides rapidly alter this conductivity, causing a near-immediate response in the electric field. PM2.5, however, was associated with a delayed response. The researchers attributed this difference to the particles' longer atmospheric residence time, meaning they remain in the atmosphere for longer periods, as well as their different microphysical interactions with surrounding air and atmospheric components. The study also identified a pronounced "weekend effect." In Israel, traffic volumes and some industrial activity decline significantly on Fridays and Saturdays. During these periods, concentrations of both NOx and PM2.5 dropped, and corresponding changes were observed in the atmospheric electric field. “The weekend signal demonstrates just how sensitive the electric field is to changes in human activity,” the researchers noted. “When emissions decline, the electrical environment adjusts at once, providing a high-resolution indicator of urban atmospheric conditions.” The findings showed that pollution levels can influence not only the chemical composition of the atmosphere but also its electrical properties. Researchers said the results strengthened the case for using atmospheric electricity as an additional tool for environmental monitoring, particularly in densely populated urban areas where anthropogenic, or human-caused, influences are most pronounced. The study also pointed to potential public health applications. By combining air-quality measurements with observations of atmospheric electricity, researchers said they could gain a more complete picture of how urban atmospheric conditions change over time. “Integrating air-quality data with electric-field measurements gives us a clearer picture of how the lower atmosphere evolves moment by moment,” the researchers added. “It’s a framework that can support both scientific insight and practical environmental decision-making.” Beyond the scientific findings, the project highlighted a collaboration between universities, public institutions and secondary education. Researchers said the work demonstrated how students could take part in real-world environmental research while contributing to studies of air quality, atmospheric processes and their potential effects on society.

    • Microsoft confirms Windows 11 26H2, urges IT admins to prepare for release

      By +TRS-80 · Posted

      We aren't even at the all-star game and Microsoft is talking about an update that will most likely be released during the World Series if not after. A lot can happen in the world between now and the 2026 World Series, including the 2026 FIFA Cup. Tell me about it again after the FIFA Cup is concluded. That should allow plenty of time to prepare for it.
