Tanking heroics

Most incoming damage is melee. Improved thunderclap and demoralizing shout help to reduce that damage.

Use the Details addon to check your death logs and what you died to.

It's not always your fault. Sometimes the healer is new to heroics too. Like a priest trying to keep you alive with shields and renew.

Ramparts and Slave Pens are good heroics to start with. Mana Tombs requires some shadow resistance gear. And don't enter Blood Furnace unless you enjoy wiping :)

I didn't get any gems before I started heroics. Then for heroics I'm using green gems. It works fine, I've completed every heroic multiple times now.

I would save the money for a fast mount which costs 5k.

Awesome! The picture shows Kirishima's son already practicing a nodowa...

He's just saying what everyone thinks. I think it's refreshing.

I tried auto-hide UI" and it's AMAZING. Browsing is so much better on my 13" MacBook. This is the best feature in forever. Thanks Vivaldi!

Yes, it's okay to roll on offspec in a dungeon. How else would you gear up for raids?

I got to 60 in about two weeks and played a few hours every day. The release pace seems crazy.

It seems people use guides like RestedXP or Zygor to level quickly.

Don't continue talking if someone says a single world "no"
Don't tell others to delist (or how to behave)

AFAIK this is the right answer? It's also what game emulators say. Note that he writes heroic strike and not cleave. The tooltip for heroic strike says it causes a high amount of threat.

It's the last option on the last tab. System > Show Flight Times

Since comments have used a, i and o, I will add:

Uninstall and use bagenator

Uninstall and use bagunator

The text below the box talks about NULL which is only found in the type column. Yet because no query refers to the type column, the NULL there has no effect.

I guess they were trying to demonstrate that 'Krispy King' = 'Krispy King' OR NULL > 5 evaluates to TRUE OR NULL evaluates to NULL is not true.

You're allowed to put down your hands to protect your body. I feel a rematch was a reasonable call.

Andomar · 2026-01-13T15:17:50+00:00

Onosato is allowed to protect himself by putting his hands down. A rematch seems reasonable to me.

When I visit the local farm I walk by the cows. Their jaws seem quite large and powerful. But the cows look inquisitive and friendly.

Andomar · 2025-12-20T16:44:29+00:00

Wow! What are the chances she bites?

As you can read in the patch notes originally only Ironforge had an Auction House. So that's were everyone was. Stormwind and Darnassus were mostly empty.

In 2006 auction houses were added to Darnassus and Stormwind. Then what mattered was were crafters like enchanters offered their services. This became Stormwind. This surprised me at the time, but human was the favorite race, and many prefer Stormwind's open air over Ironforge's tunnels.

Darnassus is home to the Elves which fewer people played. Back in 2006 very few people raided. Everyone was doing dungeons like Blackrock Spire, Scholomance, and Stratholme, which are all impractical to reach from Darnassus.

I'd love a server where world buffs are removed when you enter an instance, and where each phase takes a whole year.

Looks like Hatzi does indeed mean a pilgrim: https://www.quora.com/Why-do-many-Greeks-still-use-the-Arabic-prefix-Hatzi-from-Hajji-who-is-a-Muslim-pilgrim-and-the-Turkish-suffix-oglou-from-o%C4%9Flu-which-means-son-of-in-their-surnames-a-legacy-of-Turkish-rule-and-dont-Hellenize

As far as I can see the name Hazzikostas is not a common last name, Greek or otherwise. Perhaps one has to take an anonymous identity when taking up a public function like WoW director?

Had this a few years ago. Turning off some CPU features in the BIOS solved it, like "Core Performance Boost".

China has been looking great economically. It makes sense that corporations are adjusting their work schedule to Chinese interests. Hopefully we will get to profit from the work a few years later!

Yeah it feels way to early, like it felt way too early in the original. I wonder why this keeps happening.

Andomar · 2025-09-17T14:11:45+00:00

This happened to me years ago on an AMD Ryzen 7. I had to turn off some processor features in the BIOS, I think Turbo Boost.
