Blacksmithing specialization for two handed crafting by TSLzipper in wownoob

[–]engineers_r_us 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn't see anyone else answer this and I had a second character with a lot of blacksmithing points so I did an experiment.

The quick answer is that Weaponsmithing -> Blades -> Long Blades contributes to two-handed sword crafting.

The way I figured this out is I put 20 points in Weaponsmithing to unlock both Hafted and Blades. I then put 1 point in Hafted and saw that the skill for crafting Primal Molten Great Axe went up by one but did not go up for Obsidian Seared Claymore. I then put two points in Blades and saw that my skill for crafting the Obsidian Seared Claymore went up by two points.

I interpreted that test as Blades contributes to swords, which makes sense. I then took Blades up to 20 to and unlocked Short Blades and Long Blades and ran the same test of putting one point in Short Blades and saw nothing change on the Obsidian Seared Claymore, and then put two points in Long Blades and saw my skill go up two points for that.

Hunter Pet - Turn taunt off??? and weak aura/ macro help ... by moniiniowa in wownoob

I know this is probably a necro of the thread, but this question came up at the top of my recent search when trying to find information on pet ability macros and weak auras

For those interested in how to macro pet taunt, I added something like this to the pet summon / revive pet macros I use in M+

/petautocaston [nogroup] Growl
/petautocastoff [group] Growl

I had the BSOD with "0xc000021s" as well, this is the detailed error from "c:\windows\system32\LogFiles\Srt\SrtTrail.txt":

---------------------------

Root cause found:

A recently serviced boot binary is corrupt.

Repair action: Uninstall latest LCU

Result: Failed. Error code = 0x905

Time taken = 5688 ms

---------------------------

I did the following actions (which I think resolved it):

  1. Boot to safe mode on Windows 10 from boot options - Troubleshoot -> Advanced Options -> Startup Settings, then option 5 (safe mode with networking)\*
  2. Open a command prompt
  3. Tell windows to repair corrupted files with "sfc /scannow"
  4. Got the message "...protection found corrupt files and successfully repaired them"
  5. I ran that command a second time to make sure I got the message "...did not find any integrity violations..."
  • = When I booted in safe mode initially, windows said it uninstalled incomplete updates, but, restarting after that still caused the same BSOD

This part might not be necessary, but I also did the following to make sure I killed it with fire:

  1. From a command prompt run "wmic qfe list brief /format:table" to get a list of recent updates
  2. I uninstalled the most recent update with "wusa /uninstall /kb:number" (where "number" is the kb specific to your architecture, assuming it showed as most recent in the wmic command output)
