The way I see it we've got too many death knights not enough shaman, locks, or rogues (none).

In order to raid with some level of competence we'd be forcing everyone into sub-standard

specs to get required buffs. Priests with Imp. DS without locks. Warriors keeping up demo

shout without demo roar or CoW. Deathknights specing imp icy talons because there's no

WF totem, etc.

I get that nobody wants to do the 0-58 level grind but this isn't going to work if we don't have

some balance.

That does seem to be a problem.

I suppose I am willing to roll whatever we need and bust my ass on the current theory crafting.

Currently I'm posting from my iPhone. Internet went out and I'm not sure why. I live in a big student apartment building with 400 apartments. Hopefully it'll be on tomorrow after the servers are online.

Thank you wifi.

I actually started a pally that I plan to use as a tank.

The DK can be backup if we ever need more DPS.

Does that help the situation at all?

Dps is always the most abundant of class type. Everyone wants to do damage, no one wants to take/mitigate it.

Pally tanks are useful.

Dang iPhone.

Rogues are useless atm. My main is one and you can't believe how difficult it is for me to get into runs and put out decent damage.. just roll hunters & locks and we're good :p.

rogues are heavily buffed in 3.1

but all the hype seems to be in hybrids lately, and alot of ppl i know are giving their mains that were pure DPS classes and going hybrid..i did this myself and i havent looked back

Okay, I've been doing some thinking ( Oh Sethos, I hope you didn't sprain anything, huh huh ) and I just can't do the 1-60 on my own or without some sort of variation. So I just noticed a significant amount of money had been bestowed to my bank account and I was mentioning Recruit-a-Friend earlier. So you can invite me and get the benefits, I'll just buy the activation code.

So in order for me to do this, is there anyone out there willing to do Recruit-a-Friend leveling with me over the next week or so, mainly during the morning / afternoon due to the timezones, also, perhaps one of the Death Knights could give is a few runs through various Instances to aid the tripple experience bonus.

So any regular member ( Not doing this with 200 posts randoms or lurkers, sorry ) have the time to set aside during the morning / afternoon hours and willingness to do this? Means we could skip the boring part and also help out other members faster and become instance-ready ( 60 Instances, for kicks ) faster.

I'll probally be rolling a warrior as its the class I know and I've already started a DK on another server that a bunch of friends re-rolled on.

So you got an experienced warrior tank, just need to get RaF going, hoping I can later this week. Got exams to study for.

Animated is a DK, but I just made him to snag some easy gold to create the guild and get some bags. Haven't decided on a name for the warr yet.

You can recruit-a-friend with yourself (which is the approach I'll be taking). If you've got one copy of the game and are buying a second for RAF there's no reason not to go this route. The subscription fees end up cancelling out provided you finish in 1 month (that means you won't get the mount though).

If you're starting a new account I can offer to RAF invite you - I planned to bang out the grind to 60 this weekend.

I don't have a single copy of the game and I'd rather not go that route with buying several copies and whatnot, may cancel out subscription fees due to the free / awarded months but not sure I'll be playing World of Warcraft in a few months, so I'd rather play it cheap and have someone RAF me, someone I can do some questing with (Y)

If absolutely necessary I can roll shaman. My main is a shaman and I have excellent knowledge on all three specs (favorite being elem... pew pew)

I'd kinda sorta like to be something else though, but if needed I'll roll.

I understand where you're coming from, but post count on a forum is irrelevant when it comes to knowledge about a game.

I only have 400 some posts and could show you the ropes perfectly.

You're welcome to join me.

I'll be R-A-F my self, and dual boxing, unless you want to instead.

Let me know.

    • Plans. Christ at least editorialise this tripe for what it is or put your own journalistic take on it.
    • If you have a TV in your living room, chances are you can probably just use the Steam Link app and play your huge PC in big picture mode, effectively giving you the Steam Machine experience to see if you'd actually like it. The good news is the Steam Machine can have it's drives upgraded. It has a USB-C 10Gbs port as well, so the 512GB drive could be quickly moved to an external enclosure and repurposed.
    • This machine could very well be a second gaming PC for their living room as a console experience. So we would have to assume their main PC exists as well; With that said, I have 10gb home network with a 2.5gigabit internet connection here so we tend to have more than enough speed to download games. However, we can't make use of the 10gb LAN using Steam's built in transfer tool because it always compresses transfers and that slows the transfer down to well below a standard gigabit port speeds, sometimes as slow as 200-300Mb/s transfers. While that's probably still faster than most internet connections anyway, if they'd fix the LAN transfer issue it'd be upto x5 faster even on a gigabit LAN, than simply dropping a 2.5gbe port on there with hopes of a few people having fast internet connections. There are solutions, work arounds, like using LANCache if you run a NAS... or simply copying the files over manually using a network share.
    • Samsung announces ultra-fast UFS 5.0 storage to supercharge mobile AI by Paul Hill Local AI models tend to run a lot more slowly than cloud services like Claude and Gemini; however, Samsung has just announced that it has developed its UFS 5.0 solution, which increases data transfer to speeds of 10.8GB/s, enabling faster storage and processing in mobile memory that has the potential to provide more optimal local AI experiences. Commenting on this development, Jangseok Choi, head of Memory Product Planning at Samsung Electronics, said: If you’ve tried local AI, you’ll know it can be quite slow, especially if using the larger parameter models. By developing this new solution, Samsung says that storage is evolving from just storing data to a core piece of infrastructure that supports AI computation, too. The Korean company said that UFS 5.0 integrates the latest embedded memory interface standard from JEDEC and achieves up to 10.8 gigabytes per second (GB/s) transfer speeds. Regarding write speeds, Samsung UFS 5.0 can reach 9.5 GB/s. Both the read and write speeds are twice as fast as those of the previous UFS 4.1 standard. Aside from being ideal for local AI, Samsung’s UFS 5.0 is more power efficient by 40% compared to UFS 4.1. Samsung achieved this by implementing innovations such as clock gating and multi-voltage technologies. UFS 5.0 is also ultra-compact at just 7.5mm x 13mm x 0.9mm; that is 16.7% smaller than UFS 4.1. The company said it will be bringing it to multiple devices in the future, including mobile, wearable, and extended reality.
    • A bit like the steamdeck, this probably isn't for you.
