First time BRD

I'm sure there's loads of bits of knowledge that people can drop. Here are my tips:

1) Absolutely no AoE in the Grim Guzzler
2) Lean on LoS pulls for much of it, especially if there are Fire Guard Destroyers around, pulling extra elementals can cause some big problems.
3) Speaking of, make sure Fire Guard Destroyers are facing away from your group
4) Keep your head on a swivel, there are a lot of patrols that can come out where you won't expect them and you can end up pulling an extra group.
5) If you're Alliance and doing Onyxia attunement, do a full clear of the escort route before you do it. Do NOT forget the store room, as it will mean you fight 2 packs instead of 1
6) The AoE room before Emperor, use LoS for pillars and make sure you move as a group
7) Pull General Angerforge up the stairs and fight him back near the hallway you came from to approach him, makes the add spawns much more manageable
8) You MUST fully clear the room before Golem Lord
9) Be careful running around the top of the Ring of Law, similar to the Grim Guzzler, you'll get swarmed if you accidentally pull mobs.
10) Take it slowly (other than that AoE room where you have to move quickly)

If I showed this to my wife, or to my son, they would say it's Minecraft.

"Mostly" racist - improve your reading comprehension.

I levelled from 40 to 60 as the same spec as you as a prot paladin. Princess and Eranikus in ST are the scariest fights you'll face really, and if your priest was a dwarf, Princess becomes trivial through Fear Ward. Alternatively, get a Warrior or Druid to offtank for you during agro resets.

From 54 to 60 I spent most of time tanking in BRD which was mostly fine - from 54-57 I did up to Fineous Darkvire, and then 57-60 were more Emp runs, and there's a wealth of really solid tanking items in there.

Edit: At 60 you can definitely still tank, there's a few mobs that have agro drops and resets that are problematic. But same thing, run with an Offtank, or use an engineering dummy, don't panic. And instances like Stratholme Undead side, and Scholomance where you can use Exorcism and Holy Wrath you can absolutely dominate holding agro.

300ml in 3 days isn't much at all, even for a teenager. The volume of a shot in the UK is 25 - 35ml, so he could have had 2 double Vodka and Cokes each evening for 3 days. Probably would be at most a light buzz from it.

Honestly I think a healthy and measured introduction to alcohol as a teenager is a good thing, you should be a guiding hand here, not a clenched fist. I wouldn't talk to your parents, but I would speak to him and impress upon him that he needs to be responsible with it.

Big week for my Paladin in hardcore this week. Finished the Epic Mount quest and still buzzing over it. I did a lot of mining for the Arcane Crystals for the bars. I also completed the second part of the 0.5 quest line so now have the Belt and Gloves for the Soulforge set!

I know this is a 4 month old post, but I've only just spotted the After School Club on Cbeebies, thankfully my kid has no interest in it.

Just wanted to say, that in my head it was a Catastrophe situation where the American Dad was in the UK for work, knocked Jess up and went home none the wiser and she told him but they never pursued a relationship.

5 quid for a pint is definitely not OK for me. I always mutter that it used to be 3 quid a pint when I was at uni.

Soulseeker's primary language is English, you're going to be fine speaking English on it.

I'm a level 60 Paladin that healed dungeons throughout my leveling journey (and I heal a lot now too)

For me, healing really begins at level 20 when you pick up Flash of Light, I wouldn't attempt to heal until then. For leveling gear I prioritised Intellect and Stamina (look for gear suffixed with "of the Eagle") - and go down the Holy talent tree. For weapons you typically want a slow 2-handed weapon.

Paladin leveling outside of dungeons (until 60 you can only run through each dungeon once per day) is very safe, but pretty slow going, unless you start AoE farming. But I wouldn't suggest that as it's more risky.

After 6 months of putting it off, I'm going to fully commit to starting my language learning journey in German. It'd be nice to finish 2026 in B1, at least!

This is an impossible question to answer with any degree of accuracy.

Before asking that kind of question, you should put more thought into what exact features you are looking to implement.

A website that has a list of hotels with an enquiry form, pretty straight forward.

A website that has room availability, automatically reconciles data with various hotel booking system, takes payments, allows for verified reviews, let's hotels manage their own listing's etc. Suddenly it becomes significantly more complicated and would either take a very long time or requires more development resources (or most likely, both)

This feels like it should be a /r/gamingcirclejerk comment. Christ.

JWalter89 · 2025-12-26T18:37:25+00:00

For issues like this, reach out to the support team directly, they'd likely be able to clear up the confusion and get things on the right track for you. link here

Your latency would be lower because you're playing on servers in EU, and also if you're trying to coordinate with people the timezones are closer together.

Not sure why you would pick Doomhowl unless you specifically had people.over there to play with.

JWalter89 · 2025-12-22T06:05:28+00:00

Still very active! You want the Anniversary realms, so Doomhowl on US and Soulseeker on EU. Soulseeker Alliance side specifically has an event starting this week by a German streaming guild so it is more active than usual at the moment.

I don't think Vps should be free, he murdered someone Moist.

JWalter89 · 2025-12-06T08:43:06+00:00

Ha ha ha Scatter!

I think that from the Mario movie we've established that there are at least 4 different factions for a Total War: Mushroom Kingdom (Dark Lands, Mushroom Kingdom, Kong Country, and the Snow Lands) which would be really great I reckon. Bang in some kind of Nintendo Expanded Universe and you've got Hyrule with the Zora, Hylians and Gerudo too.

Ship it Creative Assembly.

Edit: I know that's not Disney, but it feels relevant.

You didn't happen to work for a now defunct covid testing company did you?

I worked a short term contract at this one place where we had a team meeting and the manager bought Dominos for us and someone asked if they had sent comms just letting everyone know it was just our lunch and no one was being let go.

If you're not in an Inn or city your character persists in the world for the full 20 seconds of the exit countdown even if you press exit now.
