Who's still playing WoW then?

[TheBuZZard]

I think most servers have the same problem, Dragonblight that I play on is about 2:1 ratio.

[Kaine (AoD)]

I 'THINK' last time i checked darksorrow was something like 1horde per 1.3 allis, our server is not overly balanced but the ratio's aint as bad as alot of servers ^ ^

in regards to the opening of the gates, im pretty sure one of our high end guilds will crack it in the next day, either that or Flying Circus (60 Epixed up to the eyeballs only alli guild) will already have it if it is possible

[TheBuZZard]

Since Dragonblight is a PVE server the bad ratio actually works in favour of us horde since its much faster to get into BGs. If it was PVP it would drive me crazy though.

i think thats one thing about pvp that im not overly happy with, gettin in to battlegrounds can sometimes be real hell sometimes, only real time u get in BG is when its double honor for that certain BG and its normally insta invite ^ ^

Opening of the gates requires 3+ million resources from each faction. Expect to see the first gates opening in a few weeks, not days.

So, anyone got a link to an FAQ or something for these new enchanting oils?
List of fomulae/what they do/where to get them from etc.

First time I've played WoW in a month, 40k exp to 57.. I'm getting there.. slowly

Oils are all bought from a vendor, upstairs in the inn in silithus, with the exception of the brilliant oils, which are bought from a ZG faction vendor out on the island.

/cry i need to take my level 40 over the slith hehe.

that could be painful tbh

I took my mage to feralas when he was 35 to get trained in alchemy past 225. I whispered a warlock there to see if i could get a summon, he was afk for a while, then he came back and tried to find a party to summon me but noone wanted to help. So i had to run and I was chatting to him on my way telling him of my progress

From menethil to theramore. Running through dustwallow marsh (occasionally going off the road to pick flowers then having to leg it from angry crocs). Then through the Barrens to thousand needles. I jumped off the top of the lift - i wanted to check out if the trick i discovered earlier actually works. If you blink before you hit the ground you only suffer the damage of falling from the height of the blink. I told the warlock: "I hope the gy is nearer feralas so i can res there if i die during the fall " and jumped off. BTW the gy is right next to the lifts (i guess the devs knew people were gonna fall off ) - but i didnt need it - Blink FTW - 0 damage

Then i ran into feralas, got the Flight path for later travels and headed to feathermoon. I couldn't do my normal trick of riding through the horde village on my epic mount, which is what i do with my pala, so i had to go around - some nasty wolves, bears and natives were close to killing me a couple of times (there was a lot of them, all much higher level and they kept dasing me), but a combination of mana shield, blink, frost nova and a potion or two got me through. A brief run past some skull level mobs and I am on the boat! Found the alchemist, teleported to IF to get some herbs and level a bit, then hearthstone back to Feathermoon to train the rest of the skills.

It was quite an epic run. Not quite the raid of lvl 1's taking hogger, but a fun achievement nonetheless. And fortunately i didn't die once on the way

Is that the formulae for the oils, or the oils themselves?

[Kaine (AoD)]

LOL dkmesh sounds like a fun trip

I dont think its slith itself thats going to be annnny problem ^ ^ what im kinda scared of is Ungoro -.- as theres no 'real' path way around and theres mobs EVERYWHERE so im thinkin about getting my mount before taking this trip might also respec to frost double frost nova can come in handy whilse running away from nps and allis ^ ^ and ice block would win ^ ^ also now im level 40 will get the ice shield so it dont eat my mana on hits woo woooo but -.- will cost meh 20g to respec lol

Not quite the raid of lvl 1's taking hogger

that sounds like a great idea im ganna have to try that hahahaha

its the plans to learn em

[Mblaster]

Arathor isn't doing too badly, you can check it along with a load of other servers at www.m3arts.com/aqdata/index.php

People send in data and it gets approved manually, so the updates aren't that fast. As I post this Arathor total is at 9.5%.

Formulae. They require various levels of enchanting to make, the top oils (from ZG) being 300 skill.

i was wondering if someone could help me out here. I recently brought a dell 2005 20" wide screen TFT. my desktop res is 1680 x 1050 @32bit colour. In game it's the same res but only 24bit colour.

Is this generally the case or have i missed something, as i can see the difference compared to 32 bit on my old CRT.

Other than that it's fantastic!

[mike_w]

I believe that 24-bit colour and 32-bit are one and the same... but don't take my word for it, I could well be wrong!

[Kaine (AoD)]

^ ^ The dell monitors are real nice, Got a 26" widescreen LCD screen for my system at home and its amazing WoW even supports widescreen which i didnt notice til i set it up no clue about the conours tho sorry
