Welcome to today's episode of “The Is For Podcast”! I'm your host, Sarge, and I'm joined by my cohost, Danger. In this thrilling installment, we delve deep into the sprawling realms of World of Warcraft, the legendary MMORPG that has captured the hearts of millions of players worldwide. From the epic battles in Azeroth to the intricate lore of the Horde and Alliance, we explore the game's rich tapestry. But that's not all—we're also shining a spotlight on the movie adaptation that sought to bring this virtual universe to the silver screen. Did it capture the magic of the game? Did it do justice to iconic characters like Thrall, Jaina, and Illidan? And most importantly, did it make us want to log in and raid Orgrimmar? So grab your hearthstone, sharpen your swords, and join us as we embark on a quest through pixels, polygons, and popcorn. Whether you're a seasoned raider or a curious newbie, this episode promises to be an adventure worthy of a legendary drop!

Ever wondered why traversing a dangerous area at a low level in WoW is not advisable? This week, we're bringing you first-hand experiences from my own hardcore journey through World of Warcraft that will answer this question and many more. From taking on world bosses such as Bersericron and the Zarkali Elders, exploring the Barrens, Ragefire Chasm, and the Cave of Orgrimmar, to taking on the World Quest Bonus Event for a shot at the Dota of the Sea-like music box, it's a roller coaster ride of risk and reward that's sure to captivate every WoW enthusiast. And if you're intrigued by the legend of Shadowmourne, we've got something for you too. We'll uncover the story behind this legendary weapon, introduced in Wrath of the Lich King's patch 3.3, and discuss the components used to create the legendary axe.Did I mention the hilarious encounter I had while aoe farming in Teneris? It's a tale that will have you laughing and wondering why some people can get so riled up over an aoe pool. From the progress of my mage to the average level of death in hardcore, we've got it all covered. But don't assume hardcore is all about gloom and doom. Despite the challenges, there have already been some raids cleared, hinting that a full clear of health is hard may not be far off. So, join us on this thrilling journey through Azeroth. You're in for an episode filled with insights, laughter, and most importantly, the sheer joy of playing World of Warcraft hardcore.Hope you all enjoy and hope you relate to any of these stories.

Patch 8.3 ist nun bereits seit einigen Wochen auf den Live-Servern und wir haben hunderte Übergriffe und Dutzende Visionen bestritten. Wie sich die neuen Features nach mehrmaligem Durchspielen anfühlen, darüber sprechen Phil, Matze und Seb im ersten Teil des 534. buffedCasts. Können die Visionen noch fesseln und wie viel Spaß haben wir in den instanziierten Gebieten von Orgrimmar und Sturmwind? Danach drehen sich die Diskussionen um die DpS der verschiedenen Klassen und Spielweisen im neuen Ny'alotha-Schlachtzug. Dabei sprechen wir vor allem darüber, wie gewaltig der Einfluss der neuen Verderbniseffekte auf die Leistung der Schadensausteiler ist - und wie schlecht die Effekte gleichzeitig gebalanced sind. Im zweiten Teil des buffedCasts sprechen wir über Warcraft 3 Reforged, welches in den letzten Tagen und Wochen einen Shitstorm sondergleichen über sich ergehen lassen musste, der selbst Diablogate locker in den Schatten stellt. Wir erklären, wie es dazu kommen konnte und welche Fehler Blizzard mit dem Release gemacht hat. Nach etwas Abschweifen lästert Phil dann zudem über Mobile Games ab, die ihm bei seiner Reise einen Strich durch die Rechnung gemacht habe, da selbst die popligsten Tower Defense Spiele heutzutage nicht mehr ohne Internet funktionieren. Am Ende driften wir dann noch ein weniger weiter ab und diskutieren, wie unterschiedlich der Serien-Geschmack in der Redaktion ist, wie gut einigen von uns Picard gefällt, und ob Brooklyn 99 entweder eine großartige Serie oder doch nur vorpubertärer, unlustiger Blödsinn ist. Und warum kennen Seb und Matze eigentlich die Gewinner von Germanys next Topmodel? buffedCast #534 00:00:00 Begrüßung 00:02:05 WoW Patch 8.3 - Visionen, Übergriffe und Ny'alotha 00:49:20 WoW Patch 8.3 - Verderbniseffekte 01:13:05 WoW Patch 8.3 - DpS in Ny'alotha 01:27:20 Warcraft 3 Reforge 01:46:35 Mobile Games 02:09:15 Picard, Germanys Next Topmodel und andere Serien Hier die in Folge angekündigten Links: MMORE: Ausgabe 02/2020 - Raidguide zu WoW Patch 8.3 und mehr! - https://www.buffed.de/PCGAMESMMORE WoW: DpS in Ny'alotha - Magier an der Spitze und am Ende - https://www.buffed.de/DPS Choice of Robots - Textbasiertes Mobile Game - https://www.buffed.de/Choiceofrobots World of Warships: Digitales Sonderheft zu italienischen Kreuzern + Bonus-Codes - https://www.buffed.de/WorldofWarships Mehr von buffed findet ihr hier: buffed.de: http://www.buffed.de buffed auf Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/buffed buffed auf Twitter: http://twitter.com/buffedde buffed auf Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/buffed.de/
Plagues are not new subject matter to video games. Many a fictional post-apocalyptic world starts with a plague. But what happens when the world's biggest MMO accidentally introduces a plague that kills off a ton of it's lower level players, almost making the game unplayable? On this episode we are joined by MMO expert Dan Bittner, as we break down World of Warcraft's Corrupted Blood Incident. Learn how a simple bug in a new raid led to players running through the skeleton covered streets of Orgrimmar and Stormwind in a panic. And how these player’s reactions not only changed the world of Azeroth, but also the way Epidemiologists study the spread of disease IRL.
The New Adventures of Hargack really begin after Elliot's creation starts to take his first steps into the broader world of Azeroth with Dave at the wheel and makes his way to Silvermoon.

This week we are joined by special guests Durus and Dankinia who is here to talk to us about AIE in ESO Welcome! Ok, we'll be digging into ESO shortly, but first, let's cover this week's news... AIE News Community Save the date - 10 pm to 11 pm server time, on April 28th, we are celebrating Volunteer Guard Day and we'll be gathering in Orgrimmar to step into the shoes of a guard with a /salute and you'll get to serve and protect the city just like them. Stay vigilant and watch out for any invaders. Pay attention to the AIE Discord #WoW and #General channels as well as the guild site for event times. There is reported to be a pet give away…. And other stuff. Also, have you ever wanted to give someone some WoW Gametime, a little money for some Hearthstone cards, or just enough for them to buy Deckard Cain in Heroes of the storm but are just too busy to leave your house and hit the nearest shop for a game time card? Well, then Blizzard has some good news! You can now gift Blizzard balance directly to someone else who has a Battle.Net account, all without leaving your house and having to deal with people! Check out the article over at https://news.blizzard.com/en-us/blizzard/21707369/blizzard-balance-gifting-now-available NOMADS The new God of War is out, and stealing a lot of people's time and energy. AIE Has a PS4 Community, so if you're interested in joining just search for AIE and ask for an invite. WoW Ready Check Noise/Ham Horn - There are 17 Raid lockouts till Battle for Azeroth! Time to cross off all those bucket list items, get your Allied races leveled, plan for your Orc's new posture thanks to the chiropractor, I mean barbershop, and drool over the sweet new hair styles with exclusive ‘glowy bits' coming to the Alliance side allied races! (Boo!) But hey, we got the best Antlers in the house (Moo!) The Battle for Lorderan is testable on the Alpha server (no voice overs or major spoiler cutscene available, yet) and shows what happens after the intro cinematic showing the two armies starting the battle. No word yet on Malfurion's fumble fingers that started the fire in Teldrassil, but we'll let you know when it's available as well. If you are leveling an allied race and don't want to leave Pandaria at 90, good news, the XP from quests, gathering, and mob kills stays decent up to level 94, so no need to rush to Alternate Timeline Draenor, hang out in Pandaria, do the intro quest to Warlords, start your garrison, and you can head right over to Taledor without needing to deal with Frostfire or Gorgrond. Also, if you haven't run with Noob Raid, you haven't gotten to enjoy events like this - https://clips.twitch.tv/SavageFunnyCobblerPanicBasket Shout out to Gijora, the magnificent b*****d that brilliantly executed the Mass Rez Cliff Jump taking the majority of the raid team to their death after the wipe. SWTOR Check out the great article that the SWTOR team put toger on the AIE guild hunt for Izax - https://aie-guild.org/blog/2018/04/aie-swtor-and-the-hunt-for-izax/ We have almost 100% of the active raid teams with a kill on the final boss from GftM (Gods from the Machine) and in two weeks patch 5.9 will drop bringing even more Conquest adjustments as well as new content. Mandatory fun night is on the Imperial Side and we will be tackling the Emergency Operations.

It's been a while, so we are having a host show, to talk about what AIE is up to and what we are doing in and out of game. Ok, we'll be chatting soon, but first, let's cover this week's news... AIE News Community This month's community event will be in World of Warcraft during the Micro-holiday on April 28th, Honor a Guard! We're going to celebrate the event and parade around Orgrimmar. Next month's community event will also be in WoW, helping folks who want to participate in the Balloon Tour events and those that need help with PvP for Children's Week to finally finish off What a Long, Strange, Trip it's Been achievement. WoW August 14, the day before Cyberwaif's birthday, AND the announced release date of Battle for Azeroth! With this announcement, the physical collector's edition is available for sale and includes a hardcover book with two novella's exclusive to the physical collector's edition with story about Battle for Azeroth. Excerpts were posted by Blizzard and are really worth reading - https://worldofwarcraft.com/en-us/news/21647285/collector-s-edition-a-tale-of-two-novellas For those of you not getting the physical collector's edition, the novella's will be for sale in digitial form minus all the artwork that is exclusive to the hard cover version. If you've already bought the expansion digitally in either standard or collector's edition form and order the physical version, Blizzard will refund the cost of your initial purchase to your account's Battle.net balance. Some highlights from the PAX East announcement - Dark Iron Dwarves and Mag'har Orcs will be the first two new Allied Races. Play through the War Campaign at release and unlock them. Kul'Tiran and Zandalari Trolls will come later in the expansion. Another round of realm connections is coming! The pre-expansion patch will include content in Darkshore that tells the backstory of the Burning of Teldrassil. It will include both story quests and replayable skirmishes with elites. There will be 2.5D animated pieces that tells the story of the Burning of Teldrassil. Check out more information over at MMO-Champion and WoWHead which have been tracking all the announcements and dev interviews. https://www.mmo-champion.com/content/7489-Battle-for-Azeroth-Releases-August-14th Also, if you are in Alpha and want to join the AIE Guild there, we have formed Alea Iacta Est Audacia on the Sylvanas server on the Alliance side. That's right, we're on the Alliance side so we don't spoil the Horde storyline since that's where the majority of our folks will be playing at the start. Just hop into the #WoW channel in AIE Discord and ask for an invite or DM Tetsemi on Discord as well. SWTOR Mandatory Fun Night, where attendance is optional, but fun is mandatory, is on the Republic side this week. They will be tackling GoTM as their main objective with the possibility of another MFN randomly popping up later in the week depending on Conquest goals. As always please keep track of AIE Discord and the #SWTOR channel for up to date information and make sure you've completed your story line far enough to have your own ship. Since we were gone both patch 5.8 and 5.8a dropped with a loud thud or clank depending on who you talk to. Major highlights were the Conquest overhaul, the return of followers and the final boss of GoTM, Izax. Links to both sets of notes are below,

Mewkow: To boldly go, into ESO Tetsemi: Follow the breadcrumbs to Azeroth Mkallah: No rest for the Scions Mewkow: We have Captain Cybyl's STO update Tetsemi: And so much news, that we had to do a Host Show All that and more coming up right now... Podcast Audio Raw Video http://youtu.be/clIuOtoIVKU Open Welcome to episode 291 of the the podcast celebrating the Alea Iacta Est gaming community, the die has been podcast. This is Mkallah: To my left is Mewkow: - (catch phrase here). And to my right is Tetsemi: (catch phrase here). This week we are joined by special guests us who are here to talk to us about AIE in our gaming lives. Welcome! Ok, we'll be digging into our gaming lives. shortly, but first, let's cover this week's news... AIE News Community Keep an eye on AIE Discord, the forums, and the main https://aie-guild.org page for information regarding the February events in all the games that AIE is involved in. Rumor has it, the WoW team is cooking up something special for the February event based on an idea that Ralff had and the the SWTOR team has run in the past. Curious? So are we, can't wait to find out more as we get closer to the event. Also, one of our AIE SWTOR members has a podcast called Working Class Nerds, check it out at https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/working-class-nerds/id1330089578?mt=2#episodeGuid=Buzzsprout-626038 Imperium Ludi Some brave AIE souls are checking out ESO again. Check out the #eso channel in the AIE Discord for anyone interested in joining them. The guild is named Alea Iacta Est Cartis and is available for all AIE members to join. On the Crowfall side of news, game is getting more finished and we'll surely have an open beta (currently still a kickstarter beta, and the kickstarter campaign is closed) this summer with release sometime this year. Still a lot of work but basic issues like animation cancellations and powers are fixed and are fluid now. More classes and races are in WoW Patch 7.3.5 - Patch Notes - https://worldofwarcraft.com/en-us/news/21365423 A lot of content shipped with this patch but isn't available for play yet. If you have killed the last raid boss in Antorus on any difficulty, the character that killed him will get a new breadcrumb quest leading to Orgrimmar and the new quest line leading up to the next expansion, Battle For Azeroth. As of right now, you do need to kill the last boss in Antorus on each character you want to get the new content available to them, it is not account wide. No word if it will become account wide later in the patch cycle. For all you altoholics, the new zone scaling is in for all content zones as well as a nerf to XP gained both through heirloom gear and quest/mob XP rewards, so as they say in Pandaria “Slow Down!” and enjoy the leveling content. Holiday Dungeons are also now available to all characters starting at level 20 (same level as the new Allied races start at, coincidence? I think not) and the rewards will scale with character level. And, as of right now, all Dungeons reward personal loot, which means if you want a piece for transmog, you have to run it on a class capable of obtaining it from the loot table. Expect the prices of BoE greens to skyrocket. STO Captain Cybyl's Star Trek Online News Summary for week ending 01/20/2018: 1.

If you'd like to run an event, contact Syreyne on the forums, in Discord, or on one of her many alts in game! There will be a CooP run, a Running of the X (most like in conjunction with CTR guild like last time), a Remembrance Day meet up at the Shrine of the Fallen Soldier and a march to Orgrimmar. With Ralff's passing this year, it will be especially meaningful for the guild. Keep an eye on the Discord channels and forums for the other games as well for their activities!

Greetings Gamers. This is Mewkow, bringing you the AIE raid wrap-up for August 2016, the End of Draenor edition. While this was a rather long raid season, even longer than the Siege of Orgrimmar, it certainly gave us plenty of time to get things done. With the Pre-Patch live, we might just see some teams sneak in a quick victory to finish out the expansion. http://www.altitis.net/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/AIE-Raid-Wrapup-August-2016.mp3 WoW raids Mythic Just Blame The Healers went 5 bosses into Mythic HellFire Citadel, ending at Kilrogg for a 5 of 13 finish. Better Late Than Never managed to make it to the Council, leaving them 4 of 13 to finish out. Heroic Kiddie Aggro, and Who Pulled That ended their reign of terror with a 13/13 sweep of heroic. Horseshoes and Hand Grenades has able to take out Archimonde, making them 13 of 13 in Heroic as of April 28th. Filthy Casuals are 13 of 13 ending their killing spree on May 10th. DoA last defeated Heroic Tyrant, putting them at 12 of 13 on May 22nd. Witty & Sophisticated ended their journey by taking out Archimonde on July 10th making them 12 of 13 as they prepare for Legion. Cereal Killers decided that they liked the coziness of Zakuun's lair, choosing to hang out there until Legion, leaving them at 8 of 13. Ooka Hozen Style seemed to like that idea as well, ending their progression with Zakuun, skipping Iskar, which I don't blame them for, and ending at 7 of 13 Normal FERT, who is anything but normal, is now 13 of 13, having taken down Archimonde on July 28th. Ready Check preferred the lighting in the Council's room, ending their time there for a 4 of 13 finish. Special Mention Recruiting We have a number of teams recruiting for current raid content as well. You can find out more in the AIE raid team progression forum thread. As we get ready for Legion, these teams might just be looking for you. Wrap-up Wrap-up And that wraps up the AIE Raid Wrap-up. If you'd like your raid team featured on the AIE raid wrap-up, including any non-WoW games, send those details to me, Mewkow. Also, HUGE thanks to Aarde for coordinating the Raid Team Schedules and Progression forum post, and making it far easier to put this all together. Keep raiding, AIE.

This is Tetsemi: To my left is Host Mkallah: - (hey, guys, I am making marshmallows for the rice krispie treats right now. Alludra is off gathering mats for Final Fantasy XIV. This week we are joined by special guests Arveshet and Apolas who are here to talk to us about AIE in SWTOR Welcome! Ok, we'll be digging into Swtor shortly, but first, let's cover this week's news... AIE News Community Remembrance Day, and the Summer of Love, will soon be here, albeit a little late this year. Traditionally, the Summer of Love is held during the first week of August, with Remembrance Day celebrated on August 2nd, but due scheduling conflicts (many of the guild either be at or returning from Nerdtacular), we are kicking off the Summer of Love on August 9th, with Remembrance Day. This is one of the most sacred and important events we hold each year. The event began to honor Bruce "Milliway" Galloway, an early member of AIE who passed away in 2007. He was a fan of AIE on a level that cannot be overstated, and a good friend and kind soul to all who knew him. On the day of his death we assembled and held a vigil in game. This vigil soon became our communities' yearly tradition to honor him and every guild member who has been taken from us too early. This year we will honor those we have lost on August 9th at 9pm Eastern, each in our own games, but together in Mumble. Wow: The Shrine of the Fallen Hero Eve: in B-R5RB in Immensea at the Titanomachy monument SWTOR: Alderaan, in the Juran Mountains Please join us for AIE's most solemn and meaningful event. Also planned for the Summer of Love- Tuesday August 11th, SWTOR brings us a extra special Mandatory Love Night. Saturday August 15th, the WoW team brings us the COOP that puts the Love back in the heart of Stormwind. http://forum.myextra...were-gonna-get More incredible details coming soon.

This week we are joined by special guests Syreyne and Lirianna who are here to talk to us about the upcoming Spring Craft Faire in WOW. Welcome! Ok, we'll be digging into the Craft Faire shortly, but first, let's cover this week's news... WoW Craft Faire is quickly coming up, and there are tons of activities being planned around the event. Take a look on the forums, plan your own event, get involved in the shenanigans! Aarde in the forums was awesome enough to post a link to an absolutely amazing mount planner. All you need to do is go to the website and put in your character name and realm. It takes a look at your armory and see's what mounts you do and don't have and creates a short guide on what to hit and how to do it so that you get the optimized routes for each dungeon/raid mount drops. We may have brought this up before, but for anyone farming mounts from old raids and/or world bosses, this tool is invaluable. It will plot out the shortest route to each raid/world boss and break it up by continent/expansion area. Mount Planner - http://telsa-productions.co.uk/telsa-wow/web/mount/home http://forum.myextralife.com/topic/55848-mount-planner/ . And Happy first anniversary to Sparrow and crew in the Noob Raid!

If you would like to send congratulations, twitter seems to be the place! Just tweet @siv_aie AIE: World of Warcraft Lots to talk about for the AIE World of Warcraft gang this week. First up, after months of preparation and planning, the Spring Craft Faire is finally here. The craft faire will be held this Saturday, April 26th, from 4pm to 7pm server time, and continued on Sunday, April 27th, from 2pm to 5pm, server time, so get your new and boosted characters to Silvermoon and crank up those skills. As you heard here on this show last week, Syrene put out a challenge for people to send in full bags of materials in order to be entered in a mini-raffle for two Sky Golems, and the response was overwhelming. She had 110 full emails full of mats, plus tons of extra mats that didn't meet the rules for the challenge, but were extremely awesome nonetheless. You guys rock. And we're happy to announce the winners of the mini-raffle are Zerrakim and Nunemacher! Congrats you two! Please track down Syrene this weekend at the craft faire to collect your prizes. Thanks to Edelody and Cowpoeria for volunteering their virtual dice rolling skills to select the winners. If you'd like to win a prize of your own, don't forget the craft faire is also holding a huge Craft Faire Raffle. Tickets are 100 gold each, which you can send to Seriewa. [S-E-R-I-E-W-A]. Ticket sales end at 11pm server time tomorrow, Friday April 25th. Any gold that comes in after that point will be returned to sender. There are some rules and regulations for the raffle, which you can find in the AIE wiki, along with a list of all the current prizes, which includes six sky golem mounts, an X-51 Nether-Rocket X-TREME mount, around 50 rare companion pets, eleven 28-slot bags, and a lot more, and people are still donating items for the raffle, so you probably want to get in on this. And just to mention it, all gold received in ticket sales is used to purchase more prizes for the raffle and cover some of the in-game costs of running the craft faire. Nobody is making any money on this. There will be also be a COOP run on Saturday. Meet up at the death blimp in Orgrimmar at 8pm if you'd like to bring some love to the Alliance. And of course we'd be remiss if we didn't mention that Blizzard has finally announced that there will be a Blizzcon this year. It will be held at the Anaheim Convention Center in California on November 7th and 8th. Tickets will be on sale on May 7th and 10th for $200 a pop. Even at that price, they're expected to sell out in seconds, so make sure you call in sick, tell your friends you'll be busy, and be ready with some fast fingers. The really good news is that this means there will also be an AIE Guild Hall. this year! We're still working out the details, but even if you don't win the lottery and get Blizzcon tickets, you'll want to come anyway and spend two days hanging out with us in the Guild Hall across the street. It's a total blast, and some say even more fun than Blizzcon itself. Stay tuned for more information. AIE: EVE Online We move now to spreadsheets in space with the AIE EVE gang.

AIE NEWS Many people may not realize this, but as AIE has grown, all of the expenses needed to support the community, like web hosting, the Meetup.com site, giveaways, etc., have been paid for out of pocket by a small handful of very generous people. As the community continues to grow, and our needs increase, we're looking to raise some funds in other ways, so we can provide everything we need and want to provide for the community without continuing to tap into the wallets and purses of those very generous people any further. One of those fundraisers is our new “Pass The Hat” campaign, where you can donate a buck or two towards keeping the community running. All the information you need is in the Passing the Hat post in the forums, including examples of how much we're trying to raise, where the money will be going, etc. It's almost like playing EVE with a spreadsheet! Thus far we're at just over 30%, with a final goal of $4,000 at the end of the year. It was mentioned on last week's show, but we just want to make sure that folks know - The ExtraLife charity IS being supported fully by the Frogpants community at large this year! The charity event is a game-playing marathon where people get sponsored to play video games for up to 25 hours straight. It's the gamer's version of running a 5k, but without all the sweat, knee pain, and subjecting yourself to that great ball of fire in the sky. The charity will benefit the Primary Children's Medical Center. in Salt Lake City, Utah and is a great cause. If you want to join the team as a participant, or donate to the cause, look for the Frogpants Team for Extra Life Marathon post in the Community section of the forums. A friendly PSA: Please use an authenticator if a game has one available! There have been waves of accounts getting banned for new and old games alike! Please don't get caught in the crossfire and get some peace of mind. Many games have a phone app (for some platforms) which is free, and some others have a cheap 5-8 dollar key fob. Money VERY well spent! Today's show is about World of Warcraft, and it will probably be mentioned, but the Fall Craft Fair is already starting to spool up. There will be a meeting this Friday (the 13th, wooooo!) at 9pm server time (so EST) on getting the ball rolling. Show up if you'd like to know more, and keep an eye on the forums! Speaking of the craft fair, if you're new to AIE and would like to know what the craft fair IS, or have any other questions about the craziness that is the AIE community, don't forget we have our own Wiki! There you will find answers to all your questions, and you can post your own answers to questions that haven't been asked yet. At wiki.aie-guild.org, you will find information on events like the craft fair, the summer of love, and the running of the beef, along with details on our ventrillo server, our jabber server, guild policies, real life events, and more. And since it's a wiki, you can add to the mindshare! And with the new content patch of 5.4, the Siege of Orgrimmar is underway! And with that, new raids and flex raids! With the new "Seige of Orgrimmar" raid content, we encourage any and all raid teams to send in their team's progression on either normal or flex by next Tuesday, September 17, and every Tuesday after that, for inclusion into the Raid Wrapup segment at the end of the AIE Podcast. The Raid Wrapup isn't limited to just World of Warcraft.

Final Fantasy Anyone? Hellscream is about to get what's coming to him. Free Spaceships! EVE is about to jettison some players And we talk to Pelell and Max about AIE in SWTOR All that and more coming up right now... AIE NEWS AIE's own Pelell and Abovan will be having an informational meeting about Final Fantasy, including Q&A and open discussion, in Ventrilo at 10:00pm EST on Thursday night. Yes, Thursday, like right after the great, wonderful, entertaining, and insightful AIE podcast! Missed the meeting? The Q&A will continue on the Final Fantasy section of the Imperium Ludi , on the AIE forums! Speaking of Final Fantasy, the Final Fantasy open Beta starts this weekend! The 16th for previous beta testers, 17th for everyone else, running through the 19th. The Early Access starts on the 24th for pre-orders, with the official launch on the 27th. So our illustrious Acuzod has taken it upon himself to organize an event in a game which many AIE people play, but there is no ‘official presence' there. Do you play League of Legends? Of course you do! Zod is looking to get something spooled up so a bunch of folks of all skill levels can participate. The officers of AIE World of Warcraft would like to remind everyone that if you or a friend are returning to the game after being removed for inactivity, all they have to do is jump into their local AIE LFO channel to ask for readmittance! We would also like to point out that we would love to help everyone but it sometimes takes us a bit to be able to stop what we are doing to help! Zarhym from Blizzard itself wanted to let us know, in case you have been hiding under an internet ROCK, that there is a new trailer out for the World of Warcraft patch 5.4 patch, Seige of Orgrimmar! If you are looking for a reason to take down Garrosh (beyond what he's been up to all expansion), then look no further! If you are out exploring the galaxy in the AIE fleet in Star Trek Online, you should be logging in this week! Takemikazuch has posted in the forums that ships are being given away, for FREE by Perfect World! Log in early, log in often, as there have been some neat things given away! These are items which would normally cost Zen, but not for this time period. An update from the Spreadships in Spaaaace folks. They're starting to actually implement a rule that has been on the books from the start! They're going to start to purge folks who are inactive or just haven't logged in. The cutoff is 3 months, and logging just to update your skill queues is enough to keep you as ‘active'. Read the post that Hoots made in the forums for more details. Also, due to all the crazy war activities, there is a post regarding making some money in AIEU's new digs! GAME NEWS Recent AIE SWTOR happenings! ~Pel and Max Greetings! Before we get to SWTOR news, I would like to preface our segment with something that has been on my mind and some of the other Officers as well. In SWTOR, as a guild, we have taken a hands-off approach in terms of maintaining our numbers. Meaning we haven't been actively recruiting outside of our already established community. This, in part, has led to a drop off in active players within SWTOR, and I expect this to be the case in some of the other AIE games. We want to change this. We had been operating on the thought that since AIE:WoW has this previously established player base, that it seems only natural that any other AIE branded game would also have something similar. But there are a couple truths. 1st~ Once the shiny wears off, people migrate back to their game of choice. And 2nd~ A pool of existing members is still a pool of roughly the same numbers,
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e5Z8WLtJoKA On this episode of The AIE Podcast... - It's our Summer of Love Special Episode! That's right, lots of love coming up right now... Welcome to The AIE Podcast episode #158. The Summer of Love Special Episode! Broadcasting from the AIE Secondary Stage in Central Alabama, this is AcuZod. Joining me from the West Coast, out in beautiful Southern California, is Alludra. (“Hey AIE, I think you're awesome”). Not joining us from his sickbed, is Ghomus! He came down with a nasty tummy bug this week, and is out of commision this evening. But don't fret! Filling his shoes tonight, we have AIE's own grand poobah, Lanctharus! And with that, let's jump into this week's special episode, starting with Summer of Love News... The AIE Summer of Love is going full swing! There are daily events that are going on for everyone! Yesterday (Wednesday) there was a pet battle tournament that was won by Nagozic or @angerfork on twitter! For the full results of the tournament check the show notes, as Nevermore was kind enough to post an image of the brackets. Alludra~no, I didn't compete I watched though! And speaking of the summer of love, tonight's (Thursday night's) World of Warcraft event is the scavenger hunt! It starts at 9 pm server so...it's going on now! :D If you are interested, hurry over to World of Warcraft and get in there! Meanwhile SWTOR is right now holding chain heroic runs! They are starting at the low level planets and chaining upward until everyone logs from exhaustion! Details for this event are also on the forums! Remembrance Day is tomorrow folks! Friday August 2nd is one of AIE's biggest traditions, the Remembrance Day march. World of Warcraft's gathering will be at 10pm server, starting at the Shrine of the Fallen Hero in The Barrens. As always, we ask that you come to the event unarmed. We will be marching back to Orgrimmar at a walk. Bring your horde balloon and prepare for a firework extravaganza afterward. SWTOR will be having a remembrance day event as well, starting at Alderaan in the Juran Mountains at 10pm PST. They also ask that members arrive early to de flag if they need to and to stow their weapons. The Secret World's event will be starting in the chapel on Kingsmith Island at 10pm Eastern time. Rare hunting to follow the event. LOTRO will be holding their remembrance day event at 10pm Eastern on the hill above the prancing pony in Bree. They also ask that you come unarmed. No matter which game you have decided to attend the officers strongly encourage you to log into vent to listen to the proceedings. Some even go as far to suggest that you log into World of Warcraft if you have never attended a remembrance day event, using a temporary free trial account. The warcraft event will also be live streamed and up on The Summer of Love World of Warcraft is going to end with a COOP run on Saturday August 3rd at 9pm. Please note, this is not a bear run but fun is promised! (And who doesn't like fun?) Full details about the run are up in the forums. Finally, we have some special messages from AIE members worldwide about what makes AIE special for them... Email from Revenar: Unlike other guilds I have been in over the years, AIE is truly a community that extends beyond the virtual walls of the games we play. AIE spans multiple games, and includes people of all types. When I joined AIE last winter, I was very close to quitting WoW completely, but my experiences in the guild not only renewed my interest in the game, but also led me to explore some other games with an AIE presence in them. Even as a new member, I was welcomed into the guild just like anyone else, and had the opportunity to run some instances and events that were next to impossible to get into on my old server. But the biggest impact hasn't necessarily been in-game for me in terms of actually playing the game. This community (and I can't stress this term enough) has led me to want to help out/...
Broadcasting from beautiful Northern California, this is Ghomus. Joining me from only a quarter of the state away is Alludra. We've got a great show today, with special guests Abovan and Machia, but first, the news... AIE NEWS Our guild remembrance for Vandiclaw will be taking place this saturday October 13th at 2pm server. Remember to have your horde balloon ready, for a celebration of a great guildie's life. More details can be found in the forums. We have an AIE Gaming Community town hall scheduled for Friday October 26th at 10pm EST! What's a town hall? Well it's sort of a community wide update! Do you have questions about how things are going? Do you want to know what the various games are doing with all these expansions? Or do you just want to know who is in charge? Well the Town hall is a great place to go for all this and more! For all you folks romping around in Pandaland, hit level 90 and looking to try to figure out Tiller's Rep? Our intrepid reporter Alludra, found a handy guide that Nessa put together! Nessa, sadly isn't a guildie (At least that we know of!), but she is someone who can help us out! Thank you Nessa, wherever you are! We know there are a ton of games out there lately to play, but TF2 is still a guild favorite. Been enjoying the Mann vs Machine recent DLC? Well a new update just dropped! New Matchmaking types, new Loot as well as new tours! The parties in Orgrimmar could not hope to contain Salem's Beats! He's extended it to make for a regular weekly thing. Check out the forum post for details. He typically plays his choice first hour, then has a handy form for taking requests! With the forthwith upcoming hither release of Black ops 2 AIE steam wonders if there are there enough players that would be interested in a private AIE server? Share your thoughts on the AIE steam forums Steam group forums? What's that? Steam in their latest software release made huge changes to the Community section. A Facebook like feed to keep up with your friends and a completely revamped group page. If you haven't seen it, shame on you and your next of kin. GAME NEWS Welcome, Machia to the SWTOR Officers! Our condolences... Talk to Machia for a bit. What does he like about SWTOR. -it's Scifi -Legacy exp perks -all the different ablities like force leap, saber throw,force choke etc etc Lords of Light Operation Team(s) (that's raiding for the non-SWTOR community) Lords of light is my ops group that runs on the Republic and Imperial side. We run on Sunday and Wednesday nights the Republic side we are doing Explosive Conflict 8 man hard mode. Once we have taken down Explosive conflict Hard Mode. We will progress into Terror from Beyond Hard Mode. Imp side Lord of Lights is doing 8 man Story Mode Terror from Beyond. Once we have taken that down we will progress straight into Hard Mode Explosive Conflict We were at one time running just on the Republic side, but I want a way to make it where the op team did not get bored doing content over and over. plus it lets us help out on the Imp side if a ops team needs bodies. We also use TurnTable in all of our runs which helps to mix up the ops feel. Talk about AIE in SWTOR 2 Factions, both great. Both provide AIE experiences in different ways. Empire - Larger group. Republic - Smaller, more intimate group Both are AIE-awesome! Patch 1.4 Terror from Beyond Terror from Beyond is the new operation dropped in patch 1.4. This storyline also ties into the Explosive conflict story line. Terror from Beyond is set on the remote planet so Asation, where the sith lords know as the Dreadmasters have opened a Gree Hypergate. The Hypergate opens the door to an unknown place with unknown horrors. Your team is tasked with shutting down the Hypergate and kill anything that has come through. This op has 8man and 16 man Story Mode and Hard mode. I love this Op so far. New Operation (raid) Group Finder enhancements (drops from where you came,

What We've Been Doing: Aprillian Levelling Enchanting on The Jasper [Large Radiant Shard] [Greater Nether Essence] [Lesser Eternal Essence] Saw a level 11 in Stormwind yelling for 4g to buy him some boots. Spent Friday morning transferring over pets to the alliance side. Aprillian went out on the Mana cells daily. Thinking of transferring some toons to the new realm. Playing WoW while eating breakfast in Denny's. Did the Bring me the Egg Quest in the Nagrand with the two DK's Epril and Elyte. It was hard getting the trampoline just right. But one egg worked for both, so that was cool. On the train back, wasn't too sure about the signal. Took Epril to get the Tortured Stone quest. Try to do quest that require individual looting when I can only play one. Also transferred over Pets for my alliance toon to sell. Doing a brisk business. My horde toon at the NAH in BB is a level 39 mage. Comes in handy. I set her hearth to BB, she can teleport to UC and TB for cockroaches and prairie dogs respectively and then hearth back to BB. I still have a toon on that account in Eversong Woods to buy dragonhawk hatchlings. Sunday night queue queue on ER so went to Lethon. I had Belover in WC grinding leather. She was at 60 this pass week, I'm getting her to 150 in WC and then she'll move on. She summoned Aprillian, a level 13 Rogue and Aprillian is getting nice drops including the Gloves of Fang. Monday night I was stuck in Chicago, I was put up in a room and played WoW. I took Aprillian out to do a daily. Monday evening queues on ER, logged into Lethon and took my DK's there out skinning and herb picking in WC. Why are the herbs in WC 100 Kingsblood and 125 Bruiseweed Logged into ER a little later on. Fought Bangar, one of the Nessinwary Elite with the two DK's, a piece of cake. Went over to the consortium and turned in some crystals and became friendly. Epril, the miner, bought some JC patterns she can't use yet. Nothing for inscripters, poor Elyte Did some more Consortium quests, but then some horde were attacking Haala. I was going from DC to Providence and thought I had a good connection One small problem, find herb and find minerals resetting at log in, a pain if I forget to turn it on. Decided to check on my AH alt, almost sold out of everything. Also decided to Glanthur Respeced Arlaerus from Protection to Holy and leveled him from 70-73 Doing Heroics with Glanthur and collecting Badges of Heroism Lots of Icecrown dailies Dwarven Alliance is a good guild! The Bladed Edge So there I was... wandering through Grizzly Hills on my way to snapping up my Northrend Explorer achievement... while listening to Episode 96 (specifically the emails section)... when I came across some critters in the pvp area of Venture Bay. As Forlornelf said... four deer and four mice! So... to answer the question: yes, I did know about them (about fifteen minutes before I heard it mentioned in Episode 96)... but Ol' Blade's not so egotistical to not be able to admit when he doesn't know something about something... WHY those critters are there, specifically... and why they're in the configuration they're in - four deer and four mice... and why they have multiple groups of them all climbing the hill every thirty seconds or so from 20,77 to 20,72 (I saw two distinct paths of them)... I have NO idea. But yeah... good find, Forlornelf... not many people travel out that way. I debated and debated as to whether I wanted to do the world pvp in the area... the quests being worth xp and all... and decided to continue my solo project... the results of which I hope to be able to provide soon... As mentioned, Ol' Blade's been travelling hither and yon across the world of Azeroth (and Outland) striving towards a few achievements - partly because the best way to experience the game is by going there. So I went. To Stormwind. And took the tram to Ironforge... but not before jumping off midway to catch a look at Nessy the Sea Serpent! Also... what's the deal with the gnomes in the Deeprun Tram tunnel? One's named Haggle... he seems to be a /nod to the movie Labyrinth and the character 'Hoggle'... he was short and ugly too... but there's a second gnome... Monty... and he's got three boxes behind him... perhaps a 'Let's Make a Deal' Monty Haul reference... the problem is... each of those boxes is full of rats... and as this Monty fellow is a 'Rat Extermination Specialist'... I somehow doubt there's a wad of cash in Box Number Three. Onward... to Ironforge... fished up my Fishing Diplomat achievement while I was there... and nearly ran afoul of some over-eager Alliance players that thought I would be easy-pickings as a PVP target. Needless to say... I remained unscathed. Took a few screenies of the Dwarf bankers I mentioned before... just so I can say I did it... And by the time this episode airs, I'll have gone back at least once more to try to fish up Old Ironjaw one more time. That is... unless the randomly wandering, stealth-detecting level 80elites in Stormwind and Ironforge don't catch me first. ('Cause you Alliance players don't seem to be able to... ZING!) But yeah... I haven't moused over the patrolling NPCs in Orgrimmar or Thunder Bluff in a while... but last I knew WE didn't have level 80 goons all over OUR major cities... For all I know, we do... but even if we do... somehow I doubt we have anywhere near as many. Ah well... those super-elites are probably a good thing... they're probably the only thing stopping ol' Blade from setting up in Stormwind as my hometown... that and the lack of a friendly innkeeper. Moving on. From the 'Dirty Little Tricks' Department: Back to Rogues again... this time we're being extra-especially sneaky. As you may all suspect, Ol' Blade doesn't make ALL of his money by questing or even playing the Auction House Stock Market... a respectable chunk of Ol' Blade's finances are gotten via the "five-finger discount"... for those not already aware... I pickpocket every chance I get. Some of the higher level mobs in Northrend are netting me upwards of 50-75 silver per pickpocket. Go through a couple dozen of them at a time... especially if you can find a host of (non-aggressive) Neutral ones. Here's another macro fit for saving space on the hotbar: /cast Sap /cast Pick Pocket The benefits of this little combo are obvious. If, for some reason your pick pocket was to fail, you pop out of stealth. Tapping this combo lets you at least have a sap on the mob allowing you a decent chunk of time to simply run out of aggro range long before the sap wears off. Quick and dirty. From Ol' Blade's Easter Egg Basket: For all you Lore Buffs out there... it's fairly common knowledge that the Thandol Span Bridge (between Arathi and the Wetlands) was destroyed by the Dark Iron Dwarves. There is a corpse underwater beneath the bridge that starts a (so far as I know) Alliance-only quest called 'Sully Balloo's Letter' (You deliver the letter to Sara Balloo in Ironforge) Now... here's where things get interesting... Sullivan Ballou was a soldier during the U.S. Civil War who sent a letter to his wife Sara on July 14, 1861. The in-game letter is a reference to the real-life letter written by Sully (Sullivan) to Sara. As another interesting parallel, the dwarves of Ironforge and the Dark Iron dwarves have been at each others throats since THEIR civil war... approximately 200 years ago, gametime. And for something a little more light-hearted? A little-known quest in the Barrens. Just outside Crossroads along the road to Ratchet, there will be a hut on the north side of the road... outside you will find a Tauren vendor of bread (Tarban Hearthgrain) and a small Orc boy named Gruk. Inside, though, are two individuals - Duhng, a Cooking Trainer, Guard Taruc (feasting on a bench at the back) and Grub, who gives you a quest called "Dig Rat Stew". It's not a very difficult quest, but the fun part is Grub's comment at the end. "You can't call yourself a seasoned adventurer until you've spent some time killing rats! Haw!" Most MMOs (WoW included) are known to force starting players to kill trivial creatures like rats or insects during the first few levels of play. With this little tongue-in-cheek homage, Blizzard makes reference to this little factoid and also provides a recipe to COOK the rats! Yum! - Show quoted text - Email #1 The Ruk said... Wow, congrats to Aprillian hitting 70! I bumped into her a few days ago while dragging myself through the Outlands, Nagrand I think it was. We were both standing at a flight point. I was so stunned when I noticed the big 7-0 that by the time I came to my senses, she had flown away before I could offer my "grats" in person. So a big /salute on your accomplishment! As someone who has been listening to the podcast for quite some time, I know this has been a long time coming. Keep up the great work everybody, Rukgut December 30, 2008 10:51 AM Email #2 MO shares this link with us: http://www.wired.com/gaming/gamingreviews/magazine/17-01/pl_games and writes: Hello again, as always thank you for your work and we are patiently waiting for your first '09 podcast. I finally shelled out the gold for my mains epic flyer, but now im sad that he is down to double digit gold now!:( I wanted to ask you all about quest helper and see if it is operator error on me or it is what it is. I have loved quest helper and yes it is a cheat button or easy mode whatever people may call it, it does make things a lot quicker, for questing that is of course. But it has always used lots of mb, for me as much as 35 up to 50 mb! My system can handle it but when I turn off QH the game does run smoother and my mb usage goes down to only 30 mb in total. What do you suggest or recommend? I have a laptop so I really cant get more ram but 2 gig's is enough, and if there is a setting i can change that will help that please let me know. Thank you and hope everyone had a great new years. And a shout out to all my friends on wow, and if I can plug my guild, Uptown Tavern, on the Balanzaar server, we have been around from the beginning and have always been a great leveling guild. Please pst Mo for invite or any help; we have many old guildies we group up from time to time for fun events and gatherings.

I have been listening to your show for some months now and have been enjoying it very much, i love how mostly Aprillian and Ashayo are so different in there play styles and there thinking of the game and it brings so much back to us listeners. Its great lol. Well myself, i'm from england so i'm on the EU, server draenor or also better known as Drama EU with the amount that goes on here lol. i have been playing this game on and off for quite some time now (almost from the begining but not quite) my main that i play is a fuzzy Druid tank called Dreamweaver and i am LOVING playing him, tonight i have just come out of Naxx 25 after clearing just over 3 wings of it. One thing i wanted to say is about people saying how easy it is, yes i do agree it is easy (ish) but still its only an opening raid, and how many people have cleared it so far? ofc all the good guilds have cleared it, and why is that? because they are good.... a LOT of people are still having problems with it and cant finish it, have more guilds cleared it than would of before say Pre BC?, Yes.. and why is that? because that's what blizz wanted it to be like. Just wait and see is all i will say about that. Dreamweaver isnt my only toon i play on, infact he wasn't my first. as i have been on and off the game i have QUITE a few toons lol. My first toon was a priest called Aramite and he was my 1st lvl 60 i ever had (if people can remember 60 being the max lvl) i had him and used to raid in the good ole days of Molten Core/BlackWing Lair, didn't get a chance to down Neffy before BC came :(. Just before BC came upon us i was lvling a hunter called Nightweaver and got him to lvl 60, i was having SOO much fun playing him that i decided that he would be my 1st lvl 70 when BC came about as it was comming out very soon, so thats what i did, he got to lvl 70 but i had to get back to my priest as i didn't feel right leaving him to gather dust Stood in a dark damp corner of Ironforge crying :( sooo i managed to get him up to lvl 70 as well and after a while went back to healing with him. But being an altoholic i just had to have more as i loved playing around and being able to learn about an new toon and what they could do, i already had a Healer in epics and also a ranged damage dealer in very good gear so i went to pick out one of my low lvl toons that would be up there close to the action, so what better then a rogue to slice and dice with, being all dark and stabby stabby i had mine called Night (fitting in with my hunter) i enjoyed lvling with him but for some reason i didn't like it as much as my hunter or priest but i stook with him and got him to lvl 70 yet at lvl 70 i still didnt enjoy him as much :( SOOO with blizz bringing out Shamens and paladins to the oppisit factions i didn't jump on the bandwagon until now, i lvled a shammy, it took me quite a while to lvl so i swapped out now and again to lvl a warlock (called nightfall, see how after my 1st toon i started to tie all my toons names together) i got my shammy to 70 (yet another 70 i know) i left them alone and started to enjoy my priest and hunter..... Until things started to look bleak in the guild, things got worse and worse so needed somewhere to get away seeing as all these toons were in the same guild. I had a very low unlooked after mangy druid that i said to myself why not, so after some time he was the only one i was playing and joined up with a very nice guild called Angelic Knights, time passed by and he was lvl 70, even more time passed by and he was in raids passing all my other toons gear lvl. and then it came up to another expansion Wrath and yet another choice to make on who to get upto lvl 80? my priest who was my first toon? my hunter who i had so much fun with? another toon that i had got up? you guessed it, i went with my beloved fuzzball Dreamweaver my one and only cute ball of fur druid and to this day i knew i made a right choice. I'm babbling on a bit here and didn't see the time, its 40 mins past midnight here and i need to be up at 6 :( but ohwell its friday and only half a day so thats not bad. I just want to say thanks to all three of you and keep bringing out a smashing pod cast. Hugs and kisses from a smelly druid that just wants some /hugs (Sorry for this being a total mess, its quite late and i need sleep, hope you can read it ok >.< ) Email # 5 from Ginsue Hey Guys, Love the show. I have been listening now for about 6 weeks or so. On a past episode you talked about your play style of leveling alts instead of playing end game. You questioned that fact that you may be missing something about Wow. The truth is you are missing a large aspect of Wow that is very enjoyable for a large number of folks. This does not by any stretch mean that "you are doing it wrong." You missed some fun raiding in BC that I guess you could go back later and see but I don't think it would be the same. From listening to your podcast I can tell that you enjoy the smaller parts of the game that a lot of the rest of us don't catch or ignore. So though you miss some things it sounds like you are having a hoot doing it your way. I am guilty of running like a mad fool to the end to see the end game content instead of taking my time and seeing everything that there is to see. This play style has its ups and downs like anything else. Have any of you noticed the gal you buy jewel patterns from in Dalaran is named Tiffany Cartier. I thought it was neat. Keep up the good work!! Ginsue 80 Blood Elf Rogue iTunes Review from Ginsue, thanks! Email #6 from Xandarr Question for you that I would like to bring up: How can I get my wife to understand that my WoW play is not an addiction but a way to releive stress at the end of the day. I only play a couple hours a night while we watch TV together. Or on Friday nights I stay up late after my wife goes to bed or I wake up early on the weekends to play while she is still sleeping. How can I get her to think differently about the game? How could I show her the social aspect or the way I play? Does that make sense? Xandarr the Ambassador Protectorate Paladin of theTwiizted Blackened Roses Trollbane Server Email #7 from Mimdalf I cant believe you guys picked me! Thank You so very much.

Aprillian, Glanthur and Ashayo discuss another week of playing World of Warcraft, Blizzard's great MMORPG. What We've Been Doing Aprillian: This has been my best week ever. 12/22/08 @ 2141 server time, Aprillian dinged 68. At the advice of Glanthur and Ashayo, she headed to Northrend. It was great and overwelming at the same time. I enjoyed Howling Fjord, the quest were different and fun and I read the quest text. Only got a little confused by the two quest you have to fly to. The first time I did the bombing ship quest, I didn't realize I was suppose to drop the bombs from the air, so I flew out and back and had to go again. Each quest were intricate and not the normal kill and loot and return. I loved fighting side by side with our own NPC's. Plenty of herbs in NR. I loved the dudes in Baleheim, they were suppose to be these nordic giants but their hair looked like dreadlocks. I hope we get that hair style in the game the next exp. Joined a level 70 for the quest and she immediately popped up Free for all and so I left the group. Plays with her boyfriend, ended up being pretty cool. I continued to play just Aprillian. It was very hard to do, I kept wanting to have my skinner with me or a miner. Summoning Felguard when current one loses health. And on Christmas eve she dinged 69. I loved the New Agammand and the gathering of the body quest. The one where you went into the plagued village and made one of those UC guard things and then exploded on the plagued Valkri guys was fun. I am loving the feel of Northrend. Got to the Tusky people, the icebergy look is cool Pumped to get to 70. Christmas day, grinding so hard in NR, it's crazy. Aprillian dinged 70 on Christmas even on her lunch hour Starting to have Space management issues. Bought another Guild Bank tab for We Live to serve Did my first Daily. I suppose I need to go to that island now. And no, I am no hurry to get to 80. Went to put on my first gem and it didn't work. I am loving flying. Aprillian bought the Mythic Spellthread from Scryer, and made one Encountered Queues on Sunday night. Monday I pulled both Epril and ThePrimall and Auruk down to Nagrand. Epril is 63 and Theprimall is 62, so they can't do any quests, but they just followed Auruk and helped him when needed Making money on the AH Talked with nieces and nephews about WoW at Family gathering, way cool Glanthur Ashayo Full week! A second 80 - Asheal dings! Topped and tailed by instance runs on Death Knights. Looks like I'll be levelling just by running instances. Running them with 3 DK's, 1 Hunter, and Jekle for heals. Ramparts, Blood Furnace, Slave Pens, Underbog. Already 63. Tried keyclone with two DK's but because they are both melee, it is hard to position them Professions: - Stopped 'learning' from daily inscription research. There are only 60 minor glyphs - 6 per class. You just stop learning ; it doesn't say anything useful like "you know them all" - Levelled inscription to 425 so I can use the epic offhand. (Ponfarr PM'ed me to say that restriction is being removed in the next patch. YAY) - Cooking achievements to get over 3000 - Sous Chef - 100 recipes ; good money making in AH by looks of it Daily quests: - "Aces High!" Wyrmrest quest opens up at 80. Fairly tricky vehicle quest (flying dragon). Much easier in a party - or dual boxing with key clones - Started doing Oracle dailies - three, but varies each day, and an achievement to do them all. Egg that hatches into things including pet or mount... waiting! Respec! - Changed Ashayo from affliction for 1st time ever. Now a hybrid Destruction/Demonology. DPS much improved. Increased from around 800 dps to 1500. Started running some Heroics with Ashayo, and the difference a strong group makeup makes is significant. Missing: Siphon Life CoExhaustion Dark Pact Unstable Affliction Haunt Gained soul link Fel Domination Demonic Empowerment Summon felguard Heroics - Azjol'Nerub ; trash on first boss tough without cleansing - humbling - Utgarde Keep - easy - Drak Tharon keep - achievements - Better off Dred, Oh Novos! (Palatinus mad tank, Onassi mad healer) Random note of the week: Can fly onto Zepp while leaving Borean Tundra enroute to Org Asheal has managed to heal some more instances: Ran Halls of Stone in Storm Peaks. It includes very "Indiana Jones" type event, followed by a long lore discussion. Quite interesting! Tried helping out with healing in Riversky's Naxx group on Asheal Managed to down 4 Horsemen, Patchwerk, and Grobbulus (first time kill) Winter's Veil Presents! Love having so many alts - got all the presents easily, including jingling bell and both red and green winter helpers. Had decided the jingling bell was most rare, then logged onto alliance and got four of them! Emails and PM From Blade Hey guys... "Professor" Blade here... In my quest to optimize my characters with well-put together macros, I hit a stumbling block. Also... there's a bit of a snag coming up for hunters in patch 3.0.8... we / they are losing a fair chunk of dps. Yeah yeah... I know there arer some hunters out there that are saying 'It's not THAT bad'... but I will counter this naivete with 'It's bad enough when they're buffing a class like Deathknights... making it even easier to /roll your face across your keyboard to win. But I digress... Ol' Blade's not here to rant about silly things out of his control... I'm here to give an edge to the players that still like a little bit of challenge to their game. Those of you that have interracted with me in game will probably know that I vastly prefer to play my Hunter over my Deathknight... because I find the Hunter more challenging. (Seriously! There's are two two-handed tanking swords out there!) That said... of late I was playing around with some macros in anticipation of the upcoming nerf... attempting to figure out how to keep my hunter's dps in the acceptable range... Aspect of the Beast. Have you noticed the new changes to it? It used to be a pretty useless Aspect... only making you untrackable... useful in PVP, I suppose... but not anywhere else. NOW, however... it's got an extra little boost. +10% to pet damage. THIS changes everything. I have that little treasure up almost all the time now. I've also jury-rigged some macros together to cast different Aspects when I used different attacks or items... For example... whenever I mount up on a land mount or my flier, I cast Aspect of the Viper... I won't be in combat ANYway, why not get a big mana regeneration boost while I'm moving from Point A to Point B? The problem came when I linked the macros to the spells I wanted to cast... I'd cast the spell once, and all was good, then I'd cast ot again and the Aspect would turn off! What to do? I searched and searched and finally found my answer deep in the archives of some long-forgotten tome in Ironforge... (Not really, but it sounded good, didn't it?) An Exclamation Point. ! Put an exclamation point in front of your macro text... what this does is makes the command 'sticky' and will cast it only if it's not on/active already. For example... here's the one I've put together for pet attacks: /cast Hunter's Mark /cast !Aspect of the Beast /PetAttack The exclamation point in the second line keeps the Aspect going no matter how many targets you send your pet after... and as Aspects cost no mana, all you'll see is the Aspect popping again and again as you switch targets. If you leave out the exclamation point, you will toggle the aspect on and off each time you switch targets. Here's another one in the event you're hopping on and off your mount, but not in combat... /cast !Aspect of the Viper /cast Swift Green Wind Rider This will keep your Aspect on whether you hop on or off your particular mount of choice. Oh... as a final tip for hunters? To get used to the upcoming nerf, play almost 100% with Aspect of the viper on... the huge damage reduction will make the 3.0.8 patch seem not so bad. Hope that helps! And now a little something from Ol' Blade's Easter Egg Basket... With everyone doing achievements and running hither-and-yon across the old world doing the old-world dungeons, you will inevitably find yourself in Gnomeregan. As an Alliance, it's easy to get there... get yourself to Ironforge, exit the main entrance and run west. As a Horde, you've either got one heckuva run ahead of you, or you can do a small quest chain starting at the Engineer shop in Orgrimmar. First you have to take the quest 'Rig Wars' from Nogg, then Sovik (the goblin engineer) offers a second quest that sends you to Booty Bay to talk to another engineer there (Scooty)... from Scooty you get a little device (Goblin Transponder) that will 'port you to Gnomeregan. Getting back is an entirely different matter, though. While killing mobs in Gnomeregan, you will eventually happen across a White Punch Card. These are used to access different areas in Gnomeregan based upon their colors. You can change the colors of the cards by using special machines called 'Matrix Punchographs'... but that's not the secret. Each color of card has a different string of binary code on it. I'm not going to type them all out here... but I *will* give you the translations... White Punch Card: Thrall and Jaina sitting in a tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G Yellow Punch Card: If you can read this, you're standing too close. Blue Punch Card: The gnome king wears night elf underwear. Red Punch Card: Help! I'm trapped in a binary punch card factory! Prismatic Punch Card: Message to Castpipe: your laundry's ready for pickup. Second... I know Ol' Blade's been a little hard on the Alliance of late... so I found this little goodie to follow the theme of last week's bank NPCs... All you Hordies out there will have to roll lowbie Alliance toons or sneak into Ironforge like I did... There's three bankers... all of the Stonemantle Clan... nothing noteworthy about the name Stonemantle... but wait... it's a first-name thing again, isn't it! Very astute, my young apprentice... their names are Barnum, Bailey and Soleil. Barnam and Bailey are probably the more commonly known... from Barnam and Bailey's Circus, naturally... Soleil is from the Cirque du Soleil - an acrobatic circus. This gets me thinking, though... how much respect can I truly give the Alliance faction... when they have former circus clowns as bankers? As always, an awesome podcast guys! Blade PM Previous PM | Next PM Message subject: Weapon Leveling From: Ponfarr Sent at: Tue Dec 23, 2008 7:44 am To: Ashayo Message Heard your last podcast. I leveled my polearm skill against one of those heroes in Blasted Lands (you said Netherstorm or Shadowmoon I think....dont know about those guys), but last night I tried again on my gun and found out (like you) that they changed that for those guys too. However, I did read about another method which I have not tried yet. Go fight the healers (monk or something) in Scarlet Monestary. They will continually heal themselves during the fight. You should use a low level weapon with low damage. Email 2 'ello! Marrly, on the Eonar realm, here writing again. Randomly I got to the big eight-zero within a few days of getting the expansion but that is random info. Sadly I never got my artisan Flying training but by my odd luck I got myself the epic engineering plane (A monetary setback) and the bronze drake from the Cavern of Time Culling of Stratholme Time run. Fun... But onto My real question: I myself Can only barely run WOW application once on my computer at the lowest settings. How do you manage to run two or more Wow apps at once? I am frankly confounded about it
