Sethos, try Skada, it measures dps, damage, threat, and all the rest and is pretty good memory wise. Otherwise go with the norm and use Recount.

*edited, I wrote the wrong name for the addon, its Recount you want, not Omen lol

Who ever thought up that fight need to die in a fire.

How much harder is CotGC? I have finished CotC but our guild hasn't even started doing the heroic one yet. (We find Faction Champions is what either makes us or breaks us). On heroic I take it its just near impossibly hard?

Could anyone recommend me a light, non-intrusive addon for measuring my average DPS

If you use an LDB plugin like Titan Panel/Ninjapanel/Statblock then picoDPS is great. You'll have to edit the .toc file and bump the interface version though.

(I attached my toc file that makes it work with 3.2) picoDPS.zip

DPSMeter is also cool but it requires the same toc version bump.

Theres recount but its not exactly lite. It's unobtrusive though and easy to use (type /recount show to bring the window up) and tracks more than just DPS.

It's the polar opposite of light!

I'd recommend Skada if you want some sort of comparison or just use, as mentioned, PicoDPS.

Tanked ulduar for the first time in a "alt" guild-run. I must say it was very easy, as a frost dk i was top on aoe dps hehe as tank dps on freya and thorim was insane howling blast crits were awesome. Aggro wise i did not do too bad although my interrupts from time to time did miss on brundir which was a bit of a pain, still one shotted the IC. Tried tanking in ToC with about 42k hp and 48% avoidance, however i think some alts in the guild are not as geared for it yet hehe all in all DK tanking is still alive considering the nerfs its had.... quite enjoyable too.

Getting bored of the alliance side, it really is full of kids compared to the horde side, there are more immature people on alliance than there are on horde so i probably will change.

Getting sick and tired of players who simply do not know howto play the game or their class. Tend to always end up in groups where im having to carry people through, people do not tend to progress properly from normal instances -> heroic instances. And are severely undergeared in raids etc. Just last week there was a person in greens in Our ulduar raid. Raid leader decided to bring him because he was his friend.

Hopefully the horde faction will be new challenges and a more mature atmosphere to Raiding in Pug.

Makes no difference, both factions are about equal now. Pre-BC, it could be said that Horde players in general were more mature. Blood Elves seem to have changed all that, and the Horde essentially went down the toilet.

If you're in the EU - Outland, strong alliance population tbh. Though I will have to hunt you down and kill you. :]

No, US, although I will probably roll alliance, since last time I did one was in...mid-late '05. So, pretty much a whole half of a game I've not played.

Oh, also leaning towards an RPPVP server, since the population seems marginally less...ass.

i swapped my Nelf Rogue to Undead and my Human DK to orc and i found a new love for the game.

Not only did i get the credit for all my quest achievements from the Alliance side, i can no go back and do all the horde quests (Northrend) and make alllll that money over again, but this time faster since im 80 and geared out the wazoo from TOC lol.

I'd suggest Emerald Dream as a RPPvP server. Out of the many servers I've played on, I found the community there to be quite decent. There's not much RPing if that's what you're going for though, but there's also no cyber-sexing tards all over the place, nor is it filled with ###### like many PvP servers are (good riddance, Illidan). Played alliance side there at least, not sure about Horde, but I can certainly say Outland and Northrend really are that much better on Alliance side. Hell, I actually enjoyed myself questing through Hellfire and that place SUCKS! :p

So I love healing. It's the last frontier for me, so to speak, since I've done both melee and ranged DPS, and I've tanked. I was always a little afraid of the responsibility that comes with healing, but I really like it. It may be my favorite thing to do now in the game.

By the way, the 20% XP increase from heirloom gear is fantastic. I'm already 77 and I'm not even close to being done with Dragonblight (and I only did Howling Fjord & Borean Tundra beforehand).

I've heard the new Onyxia raid is really a joke and quite easy from one of my friends... Anyone can confirm/deny?

She's pretty easy if you have a good group and know what you're doing.

If she catches you in her fire breath though or someone gets knocked into the whelpling pit, she'll really, really lay the hurt on you.

    • Microsoft Paint used to be my favorite Windows app as a kid, and it's still pretty good

      By WaltC · Posted

      What I like about Paint is using it almost exclusively for cropping and resizing images I get elsewhere--it's quick, easy and cheap... I keep it glued to my taskbar, in fact. Also, the clipping tool comes in handy, as well (hit print scrn on the keyboard and it activates immediately.)

      I still remember it fondly today. It was so cool to work in 64-color Half Bright mode and 4.096-color HAM mode (interlaced) when x86 was still in 4-color CGA or 16-color EGA low res. C= never realized what it had until it was far too late--the failure of C= was the failure of its top management. The C= Amiga was 20 years ahead of its time, I always thought. It didn't hurt that in only 512k of chip memory, the Amiga could preemptively multitask when Apple was still doing gray scale graphics on tiny screens and along with everyone else was doing cooperative multitasking (running more than one app at a time in resident memory, but you could only run one of them at a time--had to manually switch between them.) I had a ball with AREXX scripting running between programs that had AREXX ports so that when you sent other applications data and instructions, those running applications could process the same in real time to output!

      I'm not sure about that, but it at least "does" a version of 7.1 that this brand new card doesn't....

    • Microsoft confirms Windows 11 26H2 to finally get one of the most requested features

      By WaltC · Posted

      I can barely recall getting web results from a file search... I must've turned it off long ago. 26H2 is Insider's Preview build 26300.8697, which I am running, atm. It is not available for people running the standard commercial builds of Windows--only for the beta test Insider's group. But anyway, as mentioned in the thread, this feature has been around for a long time...
