Description

Greetings again from a very hot, very sandy and very boring Kuwait!

I've found a way to make Warcraft work out here and it certainly does help pass the time, since all I do is work out, get yelled at by my commander and work, work work!

Anyways, I've found raiding to be difficult with my wireless connection, so I've begun working on the Loremaster series. I'm done in Nortthrend and almost in Outlands, but I've been focusing on Kalimdor, since nobody EVER goes out there. My question is this: I'm a little less than 250 quests from the finish line and feel like I'm running out of areas to exhaust! Has anyone had this problem? Any advice? Is there something obvious I'm missing?
 

Thanks in advance,
Tazorrin, 80 Druid
Durotan

Speculation.

So the big controversial topic of the day was posted yesterday on MMOChamp


Link here

The writer is a dataminer who is apparently proud of the fact that they have never been wrong on something they've posted. They even went so far as to say they'd ".. run naked in the streets of Paris and post the video on the front page if I'm wrong." (edit: this is in no way knocking his credibility or abilities. Just providing background)

The post is about two Halloween masks found in the files. One a Goblin, the other Worgen. Personally, I think they are just what they look like. New masks. WoTLK was released just after Halloween and they've added things here and there for the other holidays to keep Northrend in play during them.

But they are saying it's proof that these two races will be playable in the next expansion, because they've never made masks of non player characters.

Personally, I disagree. Goblin models have always been able to wear player gear since Beta. Many model viewers gave you the ability to do this. And I think it's a bit of a stretch adding Worgen to the mix.

Opinions?

Warrior Q&A!

Brace yourselves warriors! The Q&A is up for us!

http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/info/underdev/warrior.html

What were your thoughts? I wasn't expecting much and it went about how I thought it would go but I was very happy to hear that they're not trying to make Arms and Fury exclusively PVP or PVE specs. As a raider that loves the Arms tree this bit of information was nice to hear.

I was however saddened by the lack of addressing our AOE tanking and how warrior tanking causes carpal tunnel because of HS spam. Now I don't think that our DPS is "fine" but it looks like Blizz is slowly bringing it up. Slowly.

All in all it's about how I thought it'd be, I do think a little too much time was spent on repeating the same things about stances and stats though.

Don't remember seeing this posted at any point, so..
Blizzard has an IPhone/IPod authenticator app for free. Search for it in your Itunes program. Only downside is having to merge your account with Battlenet. But it's Free!

Oh, and the Armory app is pretty nifty as well. Just wish you could use it off-line (for those of us with IPods)

wow install

Description
Hey guys, I just reinstalled today :( haha. I had to reinstall twice just bc the first time it didn't seem to install correctly, when I started playing after all the patches I went to storm peaks to do some dailies and wow crashed on me with some error code and I shrugged it off.

Now when I try to add addons, I have no wow interface folder. I typically manually installer, go to c drive, program files, wow, then click interface (w/e) but I get to the wow folder and nothing is inside of it!

Any idea of what could be up and my trend micro internet security pro just ran out, any recommendations on a solid anti virus/internet security along with someone that could clean it up and make it more efficient?

I am trying to analyze the dps rotation of my feral druid cat form. I have a nearly maxed out feral tree (everything involving mangle and shred certainly). I know shred does more damage than mangle if the target both has a bleed effect, and the mangle effect. The trouble is, the bleed form rake for example (or rip), and the mangle effect don't actually last all that long.

The way I see an opening is
Mangle - Savage roar - rake - shred - shred (if I still have energy)
or
Rake - Savage roar - mangle - shred - shred (if I still have energy)
After that, I never seem to be able to keep both a bleed effect (usually rip at this point if it's a boss), and mangle up long enough to do a shred, let alone two.

I just recently considered the alternative though, which I've never done before. Do nothing until my energy is restored. All dps rotation calculations I've read never seem to comment on this tactic. They give dps for shred, dps for rake, for mangle, but no one ever seems to quite be able to capture total dps including energy regen.

I was just wondering how many people do this, wait for energy to go back to 100 before launching a new chain (assuming a reliable tank & spank scenario).

Patch 3.2 Live?

Just had a quick question:

Blizzard Updater just finished dl'ing the 3.2 patch and it didn't install. I've run this as an administrator, (yay Vista...pfft), and still nothing; WoW just loads as normal but is still running patch 3.1. Any ideas as to why and has anyone else gotten 3.2 to go live?

Heroic Hodir Hard Mode for DK's

15 Jul 2009
9:10am
Quest giver: [info]spartonian in [info]worldofwarcraft
Description
If you're having trouble with this fight, I highly recommend a Deep Frost Build (17/51/3 or 20/51/0) for Death Knights, assuming your other 24 raiders don't need 13% more spell damage or 10% more attack power. I can link to a parse if requested after work, but my best results were with a Frost Spec (because of Frost Strike's benefit from Singe) after a few weeks of 51/0/20 tries and less than stellar Unholy attempts several weeks ago.

Three consecutive 45k Frost Strikes(topping out at 53k... probably from Unbreakable Armor, Fallen Crusader, and Greatness all being active at the same time) makes me happy in the pants. 26-30k Obliterates aren't shabby either. Yes, before anyone asks, I have Sigil of the Vengeful Heart.

We didn't get the kill though *cough* CASTERS NOT PULLING THEIR WEIGHT, WTF?! /HEAD DESK ... ZOMG UBERFAIL WARLOCKS/MAGES/BOOMKIN only getting 7-8k DPS?! F'n go stand in the light next to a fire, GAWD! *cough* Our best attempt so far is 14% when Hodir smashes the extra chest.

DPS meter question

15 Jul 2009
6:19am
Quest giver: [info]gaviedrummer in [info]worldofwarcraft

Mood: awake

Description
Hey there!

Well I am looking for a good addon for me to track the dps of my main (BE mage).  I tried Skada and it was ok but seemed to be a bit cumbersome and didn't report the correct numbers (showed I was hitting upwards of 4k, and I don't think that was right).  If it matters, I was also planning on using the dps meter to assist my wife's shadow priest as well.  We are more casual players but knowing our dps would help in the future i am sure.  I can't access the armory from here, but if you look up Kaneka on Tichondrius you will find me.  lol  although I don't think it is needed for this. 

anyway, thanks for any suggestions in advance!

Pally question

15 Jul 2009
8:26am
Quest giver: [info]rugbybearpa in [info]worldofwarcraft

Mood: confused

Description
I have recently started to level up my pally and went ret all the way to 68 and LOVED every minute of it. However I leveled him knowing I wanted him to be my tank (main is a 80 Holy priest main alt is an 80 hunter I am an experienced raider and know what is required in those roles and wanted to understand a tank).
I just hit the shores of the Fjord and I seem to be having mana issues. My fellow GO is leveling his druid so i do get the mana back on heals. I am using BoS and Judging wisdom every time it is up.
My rotation is pull with Shield, Judge, HotR, Consc, repeat as necessary occasional Exorcism (trying not to use it as I am aware of its incoming cast time). I know I need more int and I dont have a full "tank" set of gear but I am working on it.
Any suggestions for better mana use or tricks I am missing?
Thanks for the help in advance.

Random NPCs in Dalaran

I distinctly remember someone posting a screenshot of a letter received by a Minigob Manabonk a while back. Well, here's what he actually does:

Clicky for huge screenshot )

That aside, I AFK in the North Bank a lot in Dalaran and every now and then I'd see a random NPC walk in, head to the Guild Vault on the right (when you enter the North Bank) and disappear. I've been wondering about the significance of a few, but I noticed one of them was Great Hexxer Ubungo who is apparently a NPC in Zul'drak.

Anyone notice any others and the connections?

Don't ask me why my minimap is like that. Always been like that ever since I got SunnPort Art.

I skipped ahead to the Resto part, where they really talk in depth about ToL and it's role in the game.
