Holy crap, when did AV become a leveling machine? Started out at 51 last night and ended up 56 in just a couple games.

So I cancelled my subscription till Cataclysm, and my game time has run out as of today. However, slight dilemma. I had shit on auction.. and I doubt Cata will be coming out in less than a month.
Basically, I just wanna gather up whatever auctions succeeded or failed, gather the money so I don't lose any.
Is there anyway to get like.. a days worth of game time? What's the Scroll of Resurrection feature like? Does it work if I have WOTLK?

I do that. Raiding is fun, but the rest of the game is just fucking boring at this point. What is there to do? Faceroll heroics? Level a sixth alt?Alex said:

Hmm, anyone happen to know a good healer UI for 1080p for my friend? I really can't be bothered making a new one just for her and I have no idea what goes into a good healer UI. Anyone care to elaborate?
EDIT: Looking around, http://www.wowinterface.com/downloads/info13762-AlienasInterfacePack.html looks alright.

question for rogues out there... I'm currently a level 49 Rogue (combat spec) doing quests, dungeon finder and battlegrounds to level up. My specific question pertains to grouping in dungeons.
As of right now I feel completely useless... most of the time the fights consist of tank -> aoe -> aoe -> loot -> repeat. By the time I've started my combo the mob is already dead, by the time I move to the next mob, he's at 10% health. :lol
I'm at a loss at what exactly my role is there (if any??). The only time I get a good damage run going is on a boss, but even then it's shortlived. Any tips for a semi-newbie rogue? Is there anything to combat this problem (lack of aoe damage) coming in the next 10 or so levels?

You wont have any AOE attacks until lvl 80, so you kinda have to deal with single target attacks until then sadly. The best thing i can tell you to do in dungeons where mobs die quickly, use Slice & Dice as your finisher as much as you can, especially when a mob is close to dying and a Eviscerate/Kidney Shot would be a waste of combo points. Slice & Dice is the only finisher that can help you keep doing more damage on another target once your last one died. Eviscerate on a mob with 3% hp left? Waste of combo points. Slice & Dice? Faster attacks for the next 20-30 secs, no matter your target.
Also, Wound Poison on both weapons is the best most of the time too, Deadly poison wont have enough time to deal damage on trash, and Instant poison doesnt proc quite as often as Wound, even if the damage is most of the time greater. Not to mention if you have any talents that only works if a target is poisoned, Instant wont do anything for these talents unlike Wound.

Thanks for the tips.
I've just noticed for PvP and soloing Rogues are a blast, but in fast 5 man runs it's so hard to get any good DPS due to lack of AOE damage. I was in one group that had a pally as a tank, a mage, a lock and a shaman. Most of the time the battles were over before I even got my first combo points spent. :lol

That's nice, but Grid isn't as forefront as it probably should be for a healer. I'm screwing around with that one I linked earlier and almost got it working at 1080p, just have quartz (I think it's quartz anyway) and grid to set up then it should be ready.Sebulon3k said:
EDIT: I must say though, the sidebar looks great, that'd be very useful.
Also, that AVR addon looks fucking sweet for raiding, especially with the mentally challenged raiders that seem to think fire = good.
i hit 80 on my dk last sunday, so i have about 7-8 days under my belt at 80 on my dk, i feel i have a pretty good starter set of gear going at the moment, only downside is i have an excessive amount of hit, i'd like to drop some but i dont really have any other gear to replace the items at the moment, i need to level up some professions but not sure what to do, i figure i probably will do mining and engineering, since i already have 2 jcs, 1 bs, and 1 leatherworker, need a gatherer on one of my toons
i enjoy the dk quite a bit tho, so much so that i decided to shelf my hunter and quit my raiding guild (7/12 25m hms), think i'm going to shelf my warrior as well and play more casually and just fuck around on my dk, pretty time consuming if i want to run icc 6 times each week, heres my current stable of toons

NES is alright. It's not great since it has a pretty low proc rate.Hadoken said:If I were you I'd run Forge of Souls everyday until I get Needle Encrusted Scorpion to replace the Sphere of the Red Dragon.
I'm also sad you're going to shelf you warrior
Also, lol@DK named "Fleshlight"
yacobod: The obvious way for you to drop hit is to pick up a different weapon. Even if you just drop the Red Sphere, you'd still be 100 over the hit cap.
Either Bryntroll, or the other two 2H weapons that drop in 10 would work.

His gear is good enough for ICC25. His average item level is like 245. :lolBisnic said:
I would just wait for Deathbringer's Will or Whispering Fanged Skull if I were him based on the gear level he's currently got.

Ramirez said:I just renewed my sub tonight after not playing the game since November 08. :lol I never even made it to 80, I have a lot of catching up to do.
I did that last September after not playing the game since pre-BC (2005). I only got to 45 at the time. I've been loving my time back in the game and have taken a pretty casual course with the game.
I'm at 72 right now in Borean Tundra and play about 5-10 hours a week. Love the game and don't intend to leave now.
Hadoken said:I'm also sad you're going to shelf you warrior
i will still play the war from time to time to tank togc 10ms, vaults, weeklys, and icc 10ms, mostly i was burned out on my hunter, just wasnt fun raiding on that character, so i think that prompted the switch, and the dk is a gear project and its fresh since ive only been 80 for a week, so idk
the biggest thing i dislike about the dk is lack of mobility, warrior and hunter have good mobility, i think definately need eng for rocketboots on the dk

Slowly scrounging up emblem gear for my shadow priest. One thing I'm wondering is if it's worth getting 4 pieces of the i232 T9 gear for the set bonus (5% more chance to crit with mind flay) or just stock up on the i245 non-tiered head and shoulder pieces for better overall stats. Is that extra crit enough to see a noticeable difference on my damage output overall?

I will say that you guys scared me with your "it takes forever in the random dungeon queue if you're a DPS" but being on Mal'ganis, my queue times for random heroics is about 2-3 minutes.
scarlet crusade is extremely bad on the weekends. it can take 15+ minutes easily (on both horde and alliance) for a DPS to get a group. During the week it's actually much better and usually 5-10 minutes to get a group as DPS.
My warrior is hilarious for random dungeons... on any given day at any given time I can get into a random dungeon within less than a minute. literally less than 60 seconds. I'd say around 1/3rd of the time I get the ready check in less than 20 seconds.
unfortunately my warrior is human because all of my friends a couple of years back made alliance on the server. but they've left and I HATE HATE HATE HATE playing alliance, so he's kind of just laid dormant as I can't stand playing him and can't quite convince myself to drop $30 on a faction change.

When Cata comes out, the entire levelling experience is getting revamped. You could get a race change instead. Worgen seems very Hord-ish?
I transfered my alliance mage from a Vindication server to a Retaliation server and my wait time for a heroic went from 5 minutes to 10-15. =/ But eh... at least i can raid ICC with a guild now i guess. No way my rogue who is lvl 72 and on the same server is going to do heroics at 80 with a 15 minutes wait for 1 heroic.
And what's the matter with hating Alliance so much? From what i've seen between both factions, there is no difference at all when it comes to a player's maturity or skills. This isn't WoW from 2004-2006 anymore. Since they got blood elves, Horde isn't the "cool faction with better and more mature players" anymore. And if it's just a matter of hating how the races looks... well, this is just opinions. Personnally, can't stand how trolls dont have boots, or how all their males can't stand straight for example.

lol. yes, it is strictly from an aesthetics standpoint. No I am not kidding. I am completely serious. I played horde in WC2 and WC3 primarily and played horde when I started WoW at launch. I just can't get into alliance for some reason, and on woW find all of the alliance models and sets kind of stupid.
I agree though. I've had pretty decent experiences on both sides the past few years. Still, can't bring myself to play my warrior atm.. maybe that will change. especially odd given the lack of tanking in the game and my reasonably thick skin to criticism by whiners in our battlegroup..

I'm currently on the Borean Tundra server with heroic queues anywhere between 13-20 minutes on any given day. Lately I have been seeing them pop up more frequently which is very nice.
I agree. Years have gone by and now both sides are pretty much the same in terms of the player base. I just wish the Alliance would win more Battleground matches.

Well, your warrior is human, that might explain why. Their running animation is like if they had a stick up their ass, and their face is fucking ugly without a beard.
My warrior is a female draenei and i dont regret it. They're a rare combo (i still dont understand why) and look very nice in warrior gear. Not to mention the extra sexy bonus points.

I always thought their run animation was more 'diaper full of shit' than 'stick up the ass'. Definitely right on the beard though, Human Males all have a huge hairlip. Their animations seem absurdly outdated, and out of all the races I think they probably need a revision.Bisnic said:
