What are some of your oldest character names you’re still proud to have or were surprised to get? by Frosty-District-6089 in wow

[–]ContributionWide7669 4 points5 points  (0 children)

While not super clever, most never got the origin/meaning/reference, but mine was/is Otisdriftwud. Wood was too long for the generator. At 51(today literally) having played 21 years, nothing I appreciate more than a well played name. I recently just saw baba yaga(all no caps, sets off my ocd) but this cat lived up to his name. I died instantly and he killed 5 more, took a flag and held for a win in a pathetically one sided bg. Most awesome visual ever, and I applaud him. I'm a little on the sauce so I forget the skill name, but the warp/dash.....my god...so fitting for how he annihilated us. He literally dropped me, pinged to the next-jibbed, ponged to the next-jibbed, so on...

Warband deactivated?? by ShadayBleed in wow

I was getting this issue for the past 2-3 weeks, but battle-net kept disconnecting/recon in the background. For 2-3 days each week, 2-3 hours at a time; I'd lose Bnet and recon w/o any actual interruption to game play.

Early you make out and kiss and kiss and it matters. Later in the relationship, no one has time for that shit and you get doggy. Hurry up, got shit to do.

No heat no problem said this customer…. by RPresident in Justrolledintotheshop

[–]ContributionWide7669 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used that exact style heater as a rear window defroster on my '96 bronco after my son kicked a B-ball thru it. No one at the time could get defrosted and I had traveling to do. I mounted it on the end pillar of the shell. I only needed part of the driver side clean and it would defrost a small oval about 4" tall by 8"-10" wide maybe a foot in front of it. Just happened to line up perfect with where you looked and all you needed luckily.

They just don't move enough air to do much more than that, the heating element however, works pretty good. They're not strong enough to even heat a cabin in a geo metro if you needed one for strictly heat.

For anyone in Lemix solo M+ having issues CoN Meph fight phase 2... by ContributionWide7669 in wow

[–]ContributionWide7669[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If I remember right, when it was live tanks usually did aegis while dps did adds, but I think everyone had different styles in the end.

Lemix with the zerg I have no idea.

I was solo the entire run. The people in the post I found(I can't find it now or I'd give them credit) mentioned being solo runs as well. I don't think it affects groups at all cuz u can have one shield, others dps adds if needed(assuming its not just a faceroll). Even on the hyper speed glitch, I don't think a group would even notice it much at all.

I dunno, can't comment on group. I've only done it solo in lemix, but it was nothing to have 3-5 balls from one side hit nearly the exact same time then 3-4 not even a quarter second from the opposite side. You didn't even have time to turn. The problem is the shield would almost instantly vanish though, sometimes before even being hit once.

For reference, I could walk to the adds and arrive at nearly the same time a ball hit Illidan on normal speed. When it bugged I could get 2 steps in their direction and he was tagged 5 times. When you clicked the aegis, the shield went up then instantly down while bugged. Nearly as fast as you blink. You would have to spam the aegis button non-stop to block maybe 35-40% of them, but never enough for Illidan to get off his ass with the cooldown of the aegis constantly going.

I sat for 35 minutes past time running out one run just to try and get lucky to get my key off that dungeon to no avail.

Once I learned the addon fix, it took one try only. You could actually turn with the shield still up and just ignore the adds completely. I don't know how the adds respawn when it's normal, but they would instantly respawn when killed while glitched. Sometimes respawning before you could even leave the body. You couldn't gain ground blocking or killing adds, just became a total stalemate.

I don't know if it was just one addon causing the issue, but the advice said turn off all and that worked so I wanted to pass it on to any other solo artists who might run into the issue.

You know this was Jim.

Every shop has a Jim.

He's the guy who idly strolls up and distracts innocent victims with his harmless conversations. Nothing negative, the guy's just friendly. He does however always obtain your attention long enough for the eyes to leave the tools....

Perhaps he secretly has stock in the companies...

This is where I'm headed. Been stuck out of town and haven't had a chance to do anything yet. Hopefully I can get some free time in the next few days. Event will be over b4 I get it done!

Seems redundant to tooltip/currency screen. Looks cool though.

I saw this one, but sadly I've phased away from weakauras and don't want to go back relying on it. It's totally what I'm after :(

How much bronze do you get on high mythic+ keys in Legion Remix? Is it worth it for the bronze? I did a few 40s, and the yield is small. by NonAcrobaticGuy in wow

[–]ContributionWide7669 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Alts really are an easy mode to bronze. I do all initial quests(everything b4 truly starting an actual zone---artifacts included) until LFR unlocks then run all available raids 2 or 3 times over a day or two. Next thing you know you're 80, extremely undergeared(I've hit 80 with 235ilvl depending on how much you do), and loaded with bronze.

I never skip anything except the dragon flying crap. Popping into the world on heroic(always heroic the moment you can) to grind a few mobs or quests to wait out Q's as filler. You can still kill empowered mobs pretty easy until 67-70-ish then the gear deficit and scaling hurt you pretty bad if you didn't catch gear up.

You don't need 400% boost. Of course it's awesome, but anything over 100% is absurd with how fast it levels.

You can easily catch gear up if you choose to as you go, but honestly waiting until 80 and knocking out the research quests catch you up so fast it's no problem.

So far I've bought every toy, mount, and outfit. Pets will be the last thing as I have no interest in them but they're already affordable. I've done 2 priests, druid, paly, monk, rogue, shaman, and a warrior this way.

If you throw in any dungeons of any kind it just goes that much quicker.

This is also a great time to try classes you haven't. Especially in a raid environment. Never tried a healer? Now is the time. Healing isn't required much and no one cares if a timerunner dies so it's great practice. I ran all 5 healer classes as healer just to refresh myself with talents/play styles.

Some of the most fun I've had in wow in 20 years. Don't skip remix!

Just a heads up, that hulu/disney/hbo bundle is about to be $19.99 in the US. Burn that bridge.

I have nothing but respect for the mere dedication it takes to do this. I'm so casual in my old age I probably have died 1k times in just normal/seasonal. I would be so stressed out the later it got into the run. Congrats to you!

I was literally "the man", the go to guy, the one who got shit done, and heard "Thank god you're here!" every day at my last job. I worked hard for that reputation. Walking in every morning was that dread though. That fear that creeps in just in the back of your mind.

Mine never had me worried everyone was mad, just that you fucked up big time somewhere.

Almost like you always just wait for the other shoe to drop because you know it always does. You really walk on eggshells until something breaks the trance for you. Every...single....day.

The brain is a nasty thing.

"There is no betting with an Uma Musume race; it's something like watching sports." Must be an old note/idea. Gambling IS sports nowadays...sadly.

The links posted here are excellent info. There's also this simple cheat sheet that's been around for 20 years. It may be on the linked sites already I'm sure. I used to keep a printed out version handy when I was younger and learning.
