i walked around dalaran last night for about 2 hours just checking out every store and everything. the amount of detail blizz put into dalaran is just unbelievable!! they really outdid themselves. it makes shatt look like a city dump ;P try and get there as quick as you can so you can really spend some time just checking everything out.

(something i thought was very cool)

take the portal in dal up to the purple parlor, its awesome. all it is, is a huge room with a balcony over looking the entire city, with a butler walking around serving wine and food :)

So far so good with the expansion.

I've decided to just level as Holy on my Paladin (that will be my first level 80). I don't do near as much dps as the other classes, but with judgement and seal of Wisdom I never lose any mana and take on a fair bit of mobs with no risk of dying :p.

Also, everyone is always in need of a healer for instances. More in demand than dps. I did Nexus last night and it was incredible. Holy healer tactics have changed so much. Holy Shock seems to be my most used healing spell now. I'm still undecided if I like the Glyph of Flash of Light... I wish the HoT effect was optional somehow. With the increased haste from casting Judgement of Light, Holy Shock is usually ready to be cast. There is just a lot to it than the spam flash of light strategy from BC.

I just got the game! What class is good for solo and group PvP and mild PVE?

Warlock.. or Hunter.

Let it be known.

I ****ing LOVE my DK.

I am seriously madly in love with the way how he plays.

I just wish I could have another one so I could have one on the Alliance side as well. :(

only played DK for a bit but getting my ret pally to 80 slowly. im a casual gamer and not a crazy gamers like some of "get a life" people out there. and cant believe alot of people actually skipped school or work just to play wow... just.. WOW. very sad.

I think tomorrow I'm going to work my keister off on fishing.

I haven't done it in a while, and it sounds like a good time waster.

By the way, if anyone cares..

Here's my new, and final .. toon.

My DK.

MMO Champion has a write up about it. TwentyFifthNovember has gotten world first kills of Kel'thuzad, Sartharion, and Malygos less than 3 days after the release of the expansion.

Ha! Well, either Blizzard waaayyy undertuned everything, or these guys were just that good. Not much for them to do now except farm those raids until patch 3.1 and the Ulduar raid.

Myself, I'm just now installing the thing. I'm not worried about rushing it. Kinda pointless if you don't get the "world first" bragging rights, IMO.

Oh I believe they are good but still, does smell a lot like a more casual minded raid-content in my opinion. Blizzard seem to be blending the hardcore raiders and casual raiders more and more. Damn I miss the old days where there were 2 groups - Epic geared and blue geared. Those who had the skill, will and time to raid and those who didn't. Now everyone are running around in epics and you know in just a few months they will release welfare PvP epics and then we have two new groups - PvP epics and PvE epics.

Bit boring really, I want the old days back ( Vanilla WoW ) :/

Most people in the blue category had both the skill and the will just not the time. PvE isn't difficult. It's time consuming.

I'm glad those days are gone.

(oh and before your obvious rebuttal, I had three server firsts in vanilla WoW and one in TBC ;))

A copy of WAR and any class you like in WoW :p

WoWs PvP is... dire at best and the game forces you to choose either PvE or PvP. That or have massive pockets to afford the constant respecs so you can raid.

My idea of 'skill' is not ?ber button masher, just common knowledge:)) And all 3 need to be there, so that holds true.

For the worlds first and whatnot, have no idea what that has to do with mine or your opinion, doesn't change anything:))

You could drag absolutely terrible people through BWL and most of AQ40/early Naxx without any ill effects

It wasn't until you started running into Twins or Patchwerk that the room for error was tight enough to screw you.

For what it's worth, I was one of the "Haves" in the old days and I didn't like it. PVP was a lame: if you've got Necroknights garb and an acolyte staff then you win. That wasn't skill. Today it's slightly better but the divide between PVP and PVE gear is unfortunate. The overpoweredness of certain items (ie: 4/4+glaive rogues) also taints arena.

Ha! Well, either Blizzard waaayyy undertuned everything, or these guys were just that good.

Tier 7 is easy. It has to be easy, if they made it so that the two best horde guilds spent more than a few hours clearing it then there's no way the typical "kara-guild" would have a chance in hell at clearing it.

Guilds that were clearing sunwell will stomp all over Tier 7 content.

By the end of beta you could pug any raid you liked and expect to kill a boss in less than 5 pulls.

Gear progression from 70 -> 80 followed roughly the same curve as 60->70. You'll start replacing your Sunwell gear around level 78 but if you're willing to regem and enchant then the difference in power is marginal at best (when you factor in set bonuses). Re-gearing isn't mandatory in order to start raiding, however many people will find the instance exceptionally difficult without the margin for error that the stats on level 80 blues provide.

If all you had to do was level and then clear an instance you've done to death on beta: 3 days is plenty of time. My guild's planning to hit 25-man naxx on Friday?I won't be surprised if we cleared it by monday because most of us did it at 60 and a few of us have done it on beta. Roughly half the people are sunwell geared, the other half are re-rolls so we may need a bit of farming time to get everyone into appropriate kit.

Hey guys, I just started playing again after a really long hiatus!

Started last night lvl 7 Blood Elf Paladin :rofl:

I'm on Grizzly Hills if anyone wants to come join me! :woot:

    • 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.
    • They said by this time everyone will have flying cars. WELL...
    • A study by physicist Henry Tye of Cornell University suggests that the universe may not expand forever. Instead, it could eventually stop expanding, begin contracting and end in a "Big Crunch" roughly 20 billion years from now. Maybe not as we now know that time can flow backwards.
    • Of course. Simply reverse the polarity.
