Austria-Hungary is afflicted by mind-control.
England: SOMEONE PICK IT UP NOW

- World of Warcraft Client Patch 2.1.0 (2007-05-22)
- Lifebloom: Each additional application of this spell will now
include the full bonus from effects which increase healing. The final
heal, however, is still unaffected by stacking multiple applications
of this spell.


This change was probably unnoticed at first. There were a lot of changes for every class and new shiny Black Temple for everybody. Even most druids were reading only to the line for Epic Flight Form quest.
But as the time faded this small change made big impact. Heal MT for 1k every second? Yes, please. Spending only 200 mana per cast every 5 sec? Get yourself out of casting regen rule? Welcome to Lifebloom world.

I suspect the error everyone is getting looks like this:



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q u o t e:
The folder "" could not be created.
The file "C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\Blizzard Installer Temporary Data - 08103198\InstallLogTemplate\BaseFooter.html" could not be written. If this problem persists, you may be able to solve it by uninstalling and then reinstalling the game. If you are unable to correct this problem, please contact Blizzard Technical Support. (InstallerFile::Overwrite)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Well, here is what I did before I ever considered deleting WoW and my hard pressed game settings and such that I value. Looking at the previous patch it it's own folder, the one that created 2.2.3 (This can be found in the patches folder in your WoW directory), I ran the bnupdate.exe program to see if the error duplicates. The result is that it didn't so the problem lies in a defective bnupdate.exe that downloaded with the patch today. My solution was to copy the working bnupdate.exe from the 2.2.3 folder into todays 2.3.0 folder. Double click this executable and the patch should proceed as Blizzard planned it. While this may not be an endorsed Blizzard solution, I must admit it did work wonders for me.

Good Luck folks and hopefully I'll see you all in ZA...

Оба прока скейлятся со спеллдамагой, правда чувствуется hidden кулдауны большие. Сразу попробовал WSG на 69 prot paladine - вар+шам убивали убивали да и сами убились. Flag Carrier конечно немного медленный но зато очень неуступчивый. На арену протом пойти это лол, S1 естественно хилерский возьму, но шилд этот сыграет свое дело особенно с 35% спелл дамага.

Арена рестором чего-то надоела до такой степени что вообще не играл пару недель. Потом вышел пугом собрал рогу и лока и взлетели до 1800. После обнуления будет пару недель весело Gladiators сначала полетят к своим 2k плечам, а потом будут услуги по достижению 1850 продавать. Будет много команд Гладиатор + Нуб. И они не исчезнут =)
Друида хилером запишу в рейды, танковать 25-мены лень,да и дорого а эпики будут те же. Да и для арены респекаться не надо, тоже экономия.

Пара дейли типсов для друида.
- Монстр Apexis Guardian за 35 шардов 100% бросает синий шард, за который с добавлением еще 50 шардов можно купить синий Wand и отдизенчантить его в LPS. Кайтинг балансом(и после патча ресто) очень легок, надо просто сначала сыграть в игру Apexis Vibration и получить в ней бафф на скорость. В общем и целом если никто не помогает занимает 10 минут. Insect Swarm+Moonfire. Местные банки с маной стоят 3 apexis shard.
- Птички для Skyguard которых надо ловить в количестве 5 штук прекрасно ловятся будучи зациклоненными (чтобы ДОТЫ не прикончили например).

Russia - UK, 2-1!

Хороший правда непроверенный совет для вара, против контроля, брать антистелсовый бафф. Его dot из овцы должен выводить.
Отпиваться можно дольше если в процессе спамить /sit макро.
На Блейд Эдже пет не проходит сквозь решетки.
Возле колонн (и возле могилы), легкая неровность террейна не дает варам чарджиться.
+ Healing from gems and enchants не будет конвертирован в +35% damage. Так что реально это будет 25% макс.
Report AFK feature не мешает получить около 50к хонора за уикэнд.
Большинство Ogrilla rewards - disenchantable (hence - farmable Voids, LPS).

Got as resto into 2v2 with a real Lock, Animositie, played "till we lose" went 25-3. I mever meet a warlock before who is that good at mana drain strategy.

Previous lock i partnered with lately, Chaotixx, although being good geared, often asked me to do some DPS... I spend a lot of resourses and time, went balance/resto 40/0/21 spec with 900+dmg. Got some fun out of it, for sure.
For example, one time we meet a Warrior and Rogue team. They quickly focused my squishy partner. I tryed to save him, but Rogue already CLoSed from my Cyclone and roots breaked on Warrior almost instantly from DOTs. Mortla Strike rendered my weak +900 spell damage and healing useless and Chao died, screaming on vent about how he hates rogues and all that shit. So there we are on Blade Edge Arena, a druid in caster form and they turning to my lone tauren ass with really bad intentions. Thing is they were both already at like 50% health from initial DOTs and my starting Wraths, while I was full. I didnt go Moonkin from start, so they didnt suspect anything at this point. Probably laughing at how bad a healer i am, they both went for this soon gonna be dead druid to end the fight. And Chao my partner i highly suspect has already accepted lose ... It turned to be a finish, but a bit different that our enemies wished for ... Warrior got cycloned and rogue took like 5-6 moonfires (trinketed - 1,3k+ crits) before falling dead. Then i finally shapeshifted to Moonkin and while hearing "omg" on vent finished Warrior, 1v1 they easy for feral, pathetic for balance and even doable for resto. Just have to remember about Exectute and that Second Wing talent proc which can heal Warrior for 10% of total health if he got stunned or immobilised.
Everyone i think are expecting the Lock be with a resto Druid... Countless Warriors and Mages died from Moonkin with their healer trying to shrug off Warlock, screaming on vent WTF? But after we started to lose to ShP and Lock setup, my partner went depressive again.
One of the finishes to remember as resto. Two of us left, Mage and me, both OOM with his Pally and my Lock lying dead on Arena. I run after a Mage switching travel form out of Novas. Get evocation or drink, that what he was up to, and i was meleing thanking myself for taking time and maxing melee weapon skill. Finished him with Earthwarden crit. Bought Oathkeeper from AH shortly for that special cases.

Animositie is not even better geared, he is better skilled. Two rogues can be pain for clothie, he is always focused because druid is stealthed. I saw instant gibs from two rogues setups in skirmishes. And when we meet this setup with him - he applied CoEx on rogues, went drain life and we won. He said two DPS setups end at 1.9 rating and he is aiming at 2k+.
He just need healer to heal, even CC is not important for mana drain strtegy he using. Thats what i call a good attitude from DPS class. And he said that if i die again it is not gonna work out =).
We agreed that my resto setup is still undergeared to be competitive (only 1300 healing) so - QQ. But experience is priceless even if he will leave, i got a view on now how a not ubergeared but epic skilled lock should play. Go go go Drain tank spec and Mana drain...

This thread on kid who get locked out of WOW by parents who saw his succubus reminded me of that text i saw on WOW boards a while ago:

A story of a Paladin using his Hammer.

"So like I was looking for a party for awhile I wanted some good loot and I havent had one since 15, then one day...

This druid chick came up to me I was chilling up in ashenvale grinding some naga, and she saw me and was all like “hey I like the way you grind” , and im like thanks. But I was this one hand mace to get my skill up, every man has to be able to go one handed solo you know? So I was there working it with my one hand and she was like “so do you have a nice two hander?” haha I thought girl obviously doesn’t know this draenei, “of course I do its real nice” I said

. “Real nice huh, and big?” she said. “Yea, Verigan’s fist, its big blue and just for you if you like” I know corny but hay I haven’t had a group in along time and this cat druid was just the party I was looking for. What she said shocked me “oh I love the fist, think you can teach me how its used?” im like WTF every one knows the 2h trainer is in ironforge, and this weapon is for paladins only but w/e maybe I can show this druid although she should have learned this stuff by now.

So I whipped out my big hammer, gripped it with both hands and began to swing it in front of her to show her how to use it. But she was all like “wow I don’t think I have the skill enough to use something like that” and im like “ha, im sure you can, let me show you” so I went to trade her my hammer but then remember it wouldn’t leave my body, duh soulbound, (btw soulbound is stupid but ok). But anyway she’s like “na I rather just duel ya and see how you use it in action”. Hey? I wanted a party and a duel is a great way to build trust so im like “heck ya I’ll show you how draenei wield their hammer”.

But she she said “but just don’t use your tenticles, there long and really unfair to use”. And im like gah, I love those things. So im like “fine but you cant stop me from using my tail”, she groans of course but accepts to the terms. So we drop our flags and get right into it, she purrs at me (I think she was taunting me) and begins to bite me all over, of course I bring down my hammer and began to pound her with it. First thou I brought up my seal, my friends tell me I should never duel with out a seal up.

They say you can get into so many problems if ya don’t seal it up, before you tear it up. I know it’s a lot of work and stuff, sealing it up, judging it off, but w/e I figure it’s the smart thing to do. So we have been going at it, my hammer was kinda big for her, she lost a lot of hp quickly, and began to run, of course I knew she would, I mean who would wanna take a full Verigan’s fist? So she makes a break for it to the river, I figure she thought she could kite me around, but im a rp and my character doesn’t like to get wet. But she jumped right in. At this point im like “great she’s all wet”, then she yells out “hey im ready”. And im like w/e I can do this im not gonna quit before I get her off, I don’t want her running around thinking I don’t know how to use this thing.

So I jumped in and began to fight her, she was all “Oooooooh” and I was all “grunt, grrr eh eh eh”, she was a tough little %!#!@ cat. (Nerf druids plz). But finally I was getting the upper hand but she busted out and tangled me up in this bush thing. Then she yelled out “oh my is that all you got I just barely got wet, and not even done”I wasn’t about to stand her be rude to me I took over half her hp away! So I yelled “get read to see a paladins poweeeer!!!” and I Whipped out my hammer of justice and it stunned her, finally I was ready after all this time, and released my judgment on her, her face covered in bright white light. She got to her knees and looked up to me.

“I give I give, wow you do know how to use your hammer, and that stun, geez its so powerful it must have a huge cool”. Then I looked to her and smirked and said “hey if you wanna see a long cool down wait to I lay my hands on ya”. She groaned loudly. I don’t think she wanted me to pound her anymore today she looked beat, but because I did so completely satisfy her questions of how I use my equipment she decided I was paladin enough for her and we partied up. Got some nice loot from that run. And added her to my friends list.

Shesh do all paladins have to prove that yes, the hammer is that big and they know how to use it? If so being a paladin is gonna require a lot of work, i dont wanna have to go threw this every time just to get a party, thats kinda brutal. "
