That's the thing, it doesn't. I renamed my live client to WoW1 and ran the beta installer. As expected, the installer went incredibly fast without getting that error. So far, so good.
Yet, when I try to run the beta, and the three phases download launcher comes up (where you download the 13gig again), somewhere in the middle of phase 1 it gives me an error, saying the beta is corrupted and that I need to run repair.exe. Running this utility in both the live and the beta folder doesn't help it, even though it detects no errors.

I think I will try my luck in ZG as well. I've been pretty disouraged with playing demonology, and need a distraction.DeathNote said:

Uh..
Weird.. So I specced Holy with a main focus on holy shock and instant cast exorcisms.. And um yea its pretty hot shit.
I got into some duels tonight and was taking ret pallies like 5 lvls above me cuz they can't kill me and burn through their mana then I just slowly peel them down.. It is pretty hilarious.

We're really struggling in raids. I *think* it's the healing, while I'm shaky as a tank I believe I've got the basic stuff locked down now, but all of us tanks are getting squashed very quickly. Hopefully the weekend will give people a chance to actually get to grips with their class, I think people were forced into raiding a bit too quickly.
Anyone able to give some guidelines as to what I should be looking for in the logs for the various healers to show they're either doing the right thing or something very wrong? I'm suspicious about the fact that our pally healers aren't really using Divine Light yet.

I believe it's on purpose. May not be a way to turn it off.

Youd want to have something like recount or skada installed. You can view the combat log the few seconds before your death with your health, incoming damage and incoming heals. If you see a relative steady decline in health with low or no heals coming in, healer's fault. Similarly, if you're taking massive damage spikes that no healer could manage, you'll see that as well.
Oh, yes, I should have mentioned that we're running world of logs as well as recount, so I do have the numbers to work with. I've just picked up a distrust of taking meters at face value where healing's concerned due to various quirks about absorbs and overhealing, hence trying to work out what warning/reassuring signs I should be on the lookout for.
ug, last night was just a clusterfuck of technical issues.
I logged in and my game would stutter to the point I was getting sick no matter what I did to the video settings. I updated my drivers and nadda, then removed some out of date addons and it started to work.
While the bosses go down like paper in ICC now (our new guild was totally rusty having not been in ICC in months and we fucked up on Sindrosa and downed her with only 4 of us standing in 10 man with at least 30% of her health). We would get random DC's and then the person could not rejoin our group until multiple logins. By the time we were as LK I was DC'ing ever 5 minutes and we had to call it.
I had not made any changes since the night before and I was running fine then, I'm so glad blizzard applied more patches to "fix" thngs......

The absorbs, at least, are finally accurately reported in the combat log. The most recent Recount dutifully reports them properly. Can't say whether World of Logs has been updated to report the new absorb info.mclem said:
Also, it may not be all the healers' fault. The Block mechanism has changed, meaning tanks (and anyone else with shields) can receive much larger damage spikes than before, particularly when pulling large groups. From what I've seen warrior and pally tanks just can't pull ten elite mobs and expect to come out unscratched.

So is it true dual specs are going to be available at level 20 for 100g in Cata? That would be fantastic as I'm leaning towards playing a healer more and more each day.
Resubbed for the patch. And got a question about trinkets! (everything is blocked here at work)
Disc Priest in ICC10 gear. Had tons of spirit so I reforged all of it to Mastery. So now I am sitting with a decent amount of mastery and spirit and still can't even scratch my mana bar.
I think my problem is my trinkets. I have the mana regen trinkets that got changed into Int +spi procs. What should I be rocking? Abacus from the boat event? Anything else?

Agree about rogue set, really not digging it. I see some Prince of Persia in it but meh, could use some more work...Kletian said:
Love the DK and Mage sets though.

Really liking the Dk set, Blue and red over green.

Wow, that's impressive. There's even a talent / glyph that gives Smite 17% hit so you can pull this build off - it's not something that EJ just came up with on their own.
I didn't go the Smite route on my disc priest, and I don't think it's even needed in heroics. I reforged all of my spirit to mastery, and in the one heroic PuG I ran I rarely had to do anything but PW:S and PoM. About half the time I was casting heal it was more to drop the debuff timer on Weakened Soul than anything.
That said, the DK tank did seem to have insane avoidance. On trash pulls the mobs didn't even hit him enough to get past PW:S.

Anyone know if there's a way of disabling this glowy effect? It's fucking annoying.
