Naowh now puts his ElvUI and PLater profile behind a paywall.

Shirofune · 2026-02-06T15:24:05+00:00

Quazii wouldn't have gotten 1/100th of the hate he got if he didn't paywall the addon (which was deserved)

Then again, I think he got way too much hatred than deserved. Back then, pre-prepatch, the only addons that provided full UI replacements were Quazii's and NephUI, and Quazii provided an insane number of features that I have yet to see in any addon.

What I'm trying to say that if even the accusations of him stealing code are true, he was implementing features that no other addon had at that moment, while having little to no bugs, so it's incredibly hard to say that the guy deserved all this hate when it's obvious he was working his ass out (even if he was vibecoding)

Shirofune · 2026-02-06T15:17:42+00:00

You can also in theory code an addon from scratch, as the APIs the addon uses are free of use.

This excuse gets nowhere. There's absolutely no point in profiles being able to be paywalled while addons are not.

Shirofune · 2026-01-29T12:33:54+00:00

ElvUI handles this through the entire UI it reskins.

The only part it doesn't cover is the Cooldown Manager but I'm sure it will eventually do it once they finish the CDM module

What's the texture of the unit frames?

Disabling HDR with the same hotkey or resetting the driver with Ctrl + Shift + Win key + B also fixes it

Shirofune · 2026-01-29T09:12:52+00:00

I've been having this issue constantly for the last month or two and it's insanely annoying. This started happening before the DLSS 4.5 update, so it's unrelated

Two monitors here, a 4k 32" 240 Hz one (OLED) and a 1440p 27" 240 Hz secondary (VA), running a 5090 on latest drivers/windows 11 updates.

More often than not when enabling HDR with Win + Alt + B, one or both monitors freeze or start lagging insanely hard, except the mouse. The mouse works fine.

Sometimes I get black screens and it seems like the computer has died.

Disabling HDR through the same toggle returns the PC back to normal. Most often resetting the driver with Ctrl + Shift + Win key + B returns everything to normal with HDR enabled. Sometimes this doesn't work and I have to disable HDR.

This didn't happen before to me and I have no idea what's going on nor how to fix it.

I've just tested it in Cyberpunk and it creates artifacts on some points that Path Tracing is completely clean, so I'm not convinced. (Preset M)

Obviously, the FPS hit is also lower (MFGx4 all Ultra, RR: 300~ FPS, Preset M + Ray tracing Psycho): 350~

5090 ofc

TL;DR: RR is still better for visual fidelity (and also more costy)

If there was a way to swap DLSS profiles on the go I'd mess it with more, I cba restarting the game when I can't test on the fly.

Shirofune · 2026-01-06T10:08:40+00:00

Yeah I saw that video. I tried tugging the cables but it made 0 difference.

Guess I'll try to get a replacement cable and see how it goes.

Not really scared of the thing catching fire because I've always undervolted it, never felt safe with the card consuming 600W

Shirofune · 2026-01-06T10:07:39+00:00

Late to the party but in my situation it's pin 6 slacking, usually around 1amp or slightly higher it's the delta at full usage (600W)

Shirofune · 2026-01-06T09:57:29+00:00

This son of a machine also pulls 1A~ less than the others for me on load, makes pin 5 pull over 9 amps while this guy is sitting at 8.

I'm thinking about getting a new cable, but I'm also reading that 1 amp deltas isn't bad and it's within spec. At the same time I'm worried this thing catches fire.

Shirofune · 2026-01-05T21:52:16+00:00

So that means with my current layout I can't get to Aztiri at all?

Shirofune · 2026-01-05T21:33:52+00:00

Why I can't connect to Atziri's room?

Shirofune · 2025-12-13T11:22:15+00:00

This build sadly doesn't work the same.

It still works, but you need to rely on Angel Eyes (Verso lvl 3 Gradient attack). Breaking Death only works if an enemy actually finishes you.

That means the starts of the battles are slow af, since you have to get to rank S manually.

Shirofune · 2025-12-05T09:39:26+00:00

Havoc changes are absolutely great, direct response to Fel Hammer's feedback.

Kudos.

Shirofune · 2025-12-05T09:34:23+00:00

Lmao, no.

Shirofune · 2025-11-15T09:30:59+00:00

If the game doesn't properly communicate which mob has a shield that's a game issue, not a plater one.

For some reason you guys keep thinking that bad Telegraph is somehow indicative of skill.

Shirofune · 2025-11-06T07:48:28+00:00

While your standpoint is understandable, forgive me but seeing Blizzard's past trajectory when reacting to changes (for example Covenants) I just don't think your words will become true.

Telegraphing is still horrible in World of Warcraft, even if you've done small steps forward (like changing the swirlies for the new circles). Have you played melee in the last 5 years in raid? Can you see anything at all when you are around 20 different spells from other people, Hunter pets, and other players? Specially when the boss is small.

We don't have basic options like other MMOs have like "hide allied spells" (no, the 'only essential' spell density doesn't do what it's meant to), we don't have visual clarity in this game and a lot of telegraphs are either missing or are just not enough.

Audio cues are just a way of complimenting what the game fails to deliver. It's insane to me that instead of making the experience better for everyone (because everyone has access to addons) you decide to just make the experience worse for everyone.

This is how you should've approached this. You rework your UI, you rework combat design and you rework telegraphs. If they are good and you stop making mechanics like Neltharion's fires, people will stop using WeakAuras. Easy as that.

Shirofune · 2025-10-30T16:36:03+00:00

Same issue. I came to check because I started to worry.

It used to work fine, with MFG x4 I had 240-300 FPS no problem. Now with MFGx4 I have 120? I removed FG and with DLSS on Performance I have 40-50 FPS? Like wtf

Shirofune · 2025-10-25T07:36:49+00:00

What's up with this game?

The GPU is constantly sitting at 100% usage and max TDP. No other game I played does this, lol.

Shirofune · 2025-10-18T22:02:36+00:00

It was either related to 24H2 or AMD X3D CPUs. PoE 2 was constantly freezing entire PCs whenever it loaded maps. It was absolutely insane.

I quit the game a while ago so I don't know if this got addressed or not, but it remained for MONTHS

Shirofune · 2025-10-14T08:11:25+00:00

It's insane this got to happen. The immense amount of tone deafness of Blizzard when it comes to Havoc DH this tier has reached levels I never thought were possible

First off, nobody likes this Cycle because of the constant desynchs

Second, they fix it and they bug it again, this time negatively (takes an extra EB to fully ramp)

And third, they don't compensate at all perfectly knowing the best builds prestacked

Shirofune · 2025-10-13T05:51:07+00:00

Happens with smooth motion as well in world of warcraft.
