why do people put an eternal belt buckle on, and then put a fucking nightmare tear in it? do they think that prismatic gem is the only one that fits in prismatic sockets? ijdgi

Maybe it serves double-duty? I mean, it probably is a misunderstanding on their part, but as Shadow/Disc with my specs sharing some gear, I have to think about what I put where so that I'm not wasting space on +Hit for Disc (for example) or stacking Intellect on Shadow.

[Plow]

You'd be better to just gem each spec properly.

Prismatic gem in belt buckle is just plain baaaaaaaaaaaaaaad.

[Onorgul]

Like I said, the person in question was probably just doing it wrong, but I try to give people the benefit of the doubt.

Disc doesn't stack Int. Disc stacks SP/crit.

I believe shadow is SP/haste ideally, but it shouldn't be a big deal if you throw on SP/crit for both specs.

[Onorgul]

I just use straight spellpower, personally. And Intellect has its uses from time to time, I was just typing that while floating from having beaten Putricide.

[Eaglestrike]

If you're geared/skilled enough to down Putricide I'm willing to bet Int has almost no use for you. Maybe early on for a disc int would be useful but my 4.9k gs priest has no mana issues so I'm betting someone with more gear would have no mana issues at all unless they're doing it wrong.

For me, with NES, everything says you are "supposed" to be gemming arp. However spreadsheet didn't agree. After a couple more upgrades, Arp has finally passed gemming strength, it's now 1.0 for strength, and 1.000047 for arp lol.

Gemming str is fine. NES really isn't a good trinket, so yeah, try picking up GT or MjR.

Are your raid buffs set for 10 or 25 raids?

We had 4 paladin, I was giving sanc to the hunters but he was clicking it off saying "its not a hunter buff". Why? Am I missing something, or he is fucking retarded. Can't he get every other buff from the other 3 paladin?

[Jodwahh]

He's fucking retarded.

Is there a spell or ability in the game that looks like http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y23...710_003844.jpg that a warlock can do? Cause it's causing some HORRIBLE lag for a lot of people.

[Onorgul]

I love that.

It's a glitched quest item from Isle of Quel'Danas daily quest for the Shattered Sun Offensive. It's called Flaming Oil.

I like to fly over top of the Sunreaver Sanctuary or the Silver Covenant place in Dalaran and spam the hell out of it.

Yeah man, you guys lagging out entire fucking battlegroups and fucking up instances with limited attempts because you get off on douchebagery are just awesome.

[Onorgul]

I really don't know how anyone is lagging. It doesn't affect me and my piece of shit computer will lag if I'm sitting quietly in a small room in Arathi Highlands. I've had people use them at me and no effect, either. I'd certainly never do anything to affect people who are actually doing anything.

Tried finding this elsewhere, but does anyone know how to register a font to be used by WoW?

create a folder called Fonts under the rootfolder for wow and place the fontfiles in it

Did they nerf crododile pet drop rate again (crocodile fishing daily)? Before last update (after 3.0), it was nearly 100%, but I'm 0/15 on the last few dailies.

It's annoying, I only needed one more.

[Onorgul]

I've gotten two crocodiles in the past two weeks or so, so I don't think so. I've spent the past several days stuck with going to Hellfire Peninsula, though, which has grown quite old. Not as old as being sent to Ahn'kahet for my daily random, but close.

They were duplicate, or new one you didn't have?

[Onorgul]

I hadn't done an Outland fishing daily in a long time, so I was mostly just doing it to get the achievement. I didn't have any croc pets previously, so they were both new to me.

I guess you can't get double anymore. Would explain why im not seeing any.


One question for ret pally

Is the 4pieces bonus any good? It doesnt look that great, so I was aiming for 2 t9 only. Secondly, haste versus penetration rating...both are kinda bad, but I'm not sure which one would win in the context. The +17 str on the ilvl245 obliterate everything else imo, but I'm not 100% sure.

[Norellicus]

Uh...you still only have a chance at the croc by doing crocolisks in the city, it's just a higher rate in general from that bag. So unless you've had some incredible luck and gone 15 days in a row with crocolisks, you're not actually 0/15.
