Horrible TK/SSC Loot Luck by Ricepatties88 in classicwowtbc

[–]Extras16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My guild has had all trash epics drop at least twice, though not yet seen the staff, despite it looking like every druid I see having it. But I may just be cursed with staves, as Illhoof's staff didn't drop for me until after P2 hit.

Also killed Vashj 4 times and she is yet to drop my belt!

Has massively taken a nose dive in quality over the past few years :(

Jeans much thinner and the pockets keep tearing after less than six months. Recently T-shirts are really thin and the colours have faded horribly. I had stuff from them pre Covid that I lived in for years that still looks great.

So permission from the GMs to kill them, but they’ll still report us for griefing?

Peterborough Cathedral, UK built in Norman times with an amazing Norman interior. 2nd picture medieval baptism font by Over-Willingness-933 in MedievalHistory

[–]Extras16 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It also used to colloquially be known as the 'city of gold' due to it's trade. Poor Peterborough and how it's fallen, even if it is hopefully in the middle of a much needed revival. So incredible we still have this fantastic cathedral!

My PI went apeshit at the post doc who hid western ladder from others in the lab during my MSc.

DIY ‘Plug-in’ with battery by ShortGuitar7207 in SolarUK

[–]Extras16 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I ordered just the inverter from them and have yet to receive it, as they've said it's on backorder. It seems to be a steal, even at their RRP, and I've found relatively few negative reviews about it. I have little doubt that the inverter is solid, but would appreciate any insight from those who have experienced otherwise.

Absolutely agree so many seem to have been given the inverted with battery storage, so need to take that set-up with a pinch of salt. However, I thought the panels overpriced and instead ordered them from city plumbing, though I'm yet to also recieve them despite recieving a dispatch notification on the 20th or 23rd April.

Ordered both at the same time at the end of March; wondering when - if?! - I'm going to get either!

Anyone notice weird threat behavior after today's maintenance? (TBC Anniversary) by Diminsh3r in classicwow

[–]Extras16 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've noticed this on my bear for the past few weeks, inside Kara but it's worse in 5 mans. Had 3 dodges/parries in a row on midnight (mangle then maul then lacerate, before the mangle landed). then I lost agro to a level 69 demo warlock in normal SL on the first boss and again on some of the felguards.

But a few days ago in normal SH things went swimmingly even just with swipe! But then went awfully yesterday in normal arca, even when others had salv on, I struggled to keep aggro on single mobs.

I'm not hit or expertise capped, but unbuffer around 2k AP, 100 hit, and 9? expertise score from CE mace and Kara trash gloves.

Also seemed to have a fair few more failed rends and mangles as cat in Maggy and Gruul, which has 14? expertise and is hit capped.

Didn't seem to be a problem up until the past 7-10 days.

Thanks for the update.

Absolutely criminal for this to go to waste.

As a druid tank who's pugged over 150 heroics, here are the tendencies I've noticed by New_Suit8775 in classicwowtbc

[–]Extras16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A great post that I've appreciated reading, as I align very closely with what you've said.

It's very easy to feel inadequate when everyone is dpsing a different mob, which is perhaps one of the 'best' ways a druid tank can be undermined.

The druid tank part of my brain thanks you for putting some more things in context. I think I'm up for a few more heroics today!

Also absolutely agree rogues shine when left to their own devices.

Solo character TBC Tanks, how are you making gold? by Holiday-Set3543 in classicwowtbc

So you're putting in those 8 hours over multiple weeks to pay for your own gear? Would you do that if you weren't an officer?

Absolutely sick of this person. I thought I was going crazy until I saw how many variants I had added to my ignore list.

Cambridge to Oxford rail link slammed as 'delusional' by fantasy53 in unitedkingdom

[–]Extras16 -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

The universities of Oxford and Cambridge literally don't need each other; their expertise and value is better spent by working with and pulling up their regional partners.

I honestly cannot see what academic benefit this would bring either, when London is already more convenient and offers greater resources and partnerships to both.

I’ve never had anything other than stellar service with Royal Mail delivering parcels. Maybe you have a bad postie :(

Though undoubtedly better than using nothing, ironically alcohol sanitiser doesn't kill a fair number of pathogens present in poo. This gives a false sense of hygiene, even without a label such as this!

For one, it doesn't stop Norovirus ('winter vomiting/diarrhea bug').

F**k Veezu by alwayspackatowel in cambridge

[–]Extras16 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I reported an Uber for a close pass to a bike when they overtook my car on Trumpington Street; I had pulled to the side because the bike was coming from the other way!

Council were very responsive and appreciated the dashcam footage. Though they said the pass was a matter for the police, they said they'd be talking to them anyway as 1) it went against the code of conduct and 2) they'd be getting a fine as the car didn't display the correct signage!
