Wtf is with all of this addon shit. I like the stuff Blizzard gave me, don't fuck with it. Only thing up in addition to default is Recount.

I don't let people raid unless they have DBM. Statbuster, too.

What blizzard gave you is a template, altering that template to your preference is not fucking with it I assume lol. Anyway DBM, Recount, Omen, Atlasloot and maybe some Profession mods is pretty much all you need nowadays, in terms of the UI its all down to the user.

IMO without the addons it could be more challenging, but then again you're like a blind man on a wheelchair fighting off a dragon with your stick without these addons hahaha

haha im looking for an excuse to start a real one

Josh154 · Dec 10, 2010

Im looking at starting wow again also

I've never really gotten into blizzard games but i told my mom today to get me sc2 for christmas so we will see if i get that. If i get sc2 i don't really wanna play wow so im gonna hold off till after christmas before deciding. I don't wish to be playing two mmorpg's because i know how addicting these games are and you just spend hours on them.

1nf3rn0x · Dec 10, 2010

Bah, I have the urge to play it again. My mate is currently using my account due to his one being hacked, and he has no problem me playing and he pays the subscription. He even gave me the cata disk, OH just another reason to start playing again!

. I'm installing now btw

I think you mean Ratingbuster. I understand DBM, but there is no reason that Ratingbuster should be a required raid tool. I personally use it and it's nice to be able to compare your current item with a new one instantly. But not having it shouldn't be no raid invite.

Just remember that the REAL fun starts at the highest level. That is where the end-game content is.

indeed they do start at level 1.

v12dock · Dec 12, 2010

Instance are A LOT harder! Compared to wrath.. you actually need to CC :eek:

Any who I seem to get some players that are still playing like its wrath and are pulling massive groups of mobs and wiping on every trash pull.. :shadedshu

BondExtreme · Dec 13, 2010

^ Ugh yea. I am trying to only do runs now with my guild. Any pug I get, they are all morons. The groups pull without any CC and then the retard DPS and Tank yell at me because I can't heal through it and I go oom instantly....

Someone in my guild refers to those peeps as downs.. Heh, ok maybe I should leave that part out.

DannibusX · Dec 13, 2010

I started a new character on the Tanaris server with a friend. I decided since I raided as mage DPS for vanilla and healed as a priest through BC and Wrath that I would take up tanking as a warrior.

Made 36 in a couple of days and I am enjoying the new content and leveling experience. It's so well done now. I went Goblin of course, great race.

Reventon · Dec 13, 2010

I'm 83 right now. Just started in Uldum not too long ago, love it. Want to be 85.

I must say though that I love the leveling in Cata. Normally I hate leveling, but it's fun in the new zones.

I use DBM, AtlasLoot, Recount, and a few others, but no interface addons. Interface addons are fail.

BondExtreme · Dec 13, 2010

Why are interface addons fail?

I use dominos and it's nice to literally place and customize your action bars wherever you want. It makes it more clean.

Reventon · Dec 14, 2010

They are fail to me. Like I said, I like the way Blizzard set me up, don't fuck with it.

1Kurgan1 · Dec 14, 2010

At least it's just your guys addons that are fail. Ever since I started playing WoW again (about 4 months ago) I been trying to hunt down massive memory leaks. It seems addons make it a bit worse, as does having Steam interface. But things like DBM are needed to raid. I even went so far as to put a brand new W7 on here and all new WoW, and the leaking is back. It really sucks, doubt I could raid as the higher stress the game puts out, the faster it goes, I can level for hours, but standing in just a capital city and I'll probably memory leak out and crash within 5 - 10 min.

Yep, thats my wheels, got a lot of work into it. It's a 99 Pontiac Grand Prix GTX.

zithe · Dec 14, 2010

I like the way blizzard set me up, too. However, I forget which pages I leave things on that I need in a bind. Having everything open to me can be helpful.

Same here. That crap pisses me off. Can't go in Org basically.

Also the fact that the game still crossfires like ass. Turning off Cat AI does nothing either. I been tempted to turn off my comp and yank out a videocard just to play the game decently, very disappointing.

ShiBDiB · Dec 14, 2010

I'm so close to playing again.... just got mono so I cant do much anyway, cant even go to the gym

((, but ima hold out til bc2 vietnam and hopefully that keeps me occupied.

BondExtreme · Dec 14, 2010

YES! My guild got to rank 2!!!! (Increased flight speed by 10%) ^_^
You can really tell the difference especially if you have 310% flying. 10% added to that equals to roughly 350% flying!

Nope.
The flight speed is +310%
That is 410% * 1.1 = 451% speed.
