Gaming / Re: Star Wars The Old Republic
« on: March 07, 2012, 09:00:58 PM »
Yeah, I haven't gotten to that point yet.  :)  I have a feeling they'll ramp up end game instances like Blizzard did with wow.  I think when Wow first game out there was only two end game instances.  With the support the game is getting, hopefully they'll be in the main stream for a time to come.

Sounds like fun.  I'll have to check with the wife.  April 28th is my 40th birthday...omg...40.  Not sure she'd take too kindly to me being gone most of the weekend if she's planning something.  :)

World of Warcraft / Death Knight Tanking / DPS Builds
« on: January 05, 2010, 12:40:20 PM »
I'm working on getting my T9 set for tanking.  Mainly so I can get in on a heroics quickly instead of waiting in line.  Tanks get the breaks I hear.  Anyway, I'm looking for good tanking / dps builds that some of you might be currently using to help me out.  I've visited many websites on the topic and the latest is from "dominate your server" on a frost build as the best DPS as of patch 3.3 if you have best gear in slot.

If you can please post your build and possibly even your skill rotations you use.

Thanks!

World of Warcraft / Re: Random Flying Mount Macro
« on: January 05, 2010, 12:36:07 PM »
Even though the randomize is supposed to work I wonder how it's actually done behind the scenes.  Seems that is doesn't work as good as I had hoped.  Maybe that is because mounting and dismounting several times back to back freaks it out and sometimes I get the same mount 4 or 5 times in a row.  Too bad the randomize function doesn't keep track of what it's last choice was so if it randomized and got the same choice, it could randomize again and get something different.

World of Warcraft / Random Flying Mount Macro
« on: December 21, 2009, 08:48:33 PM »
Here is the mount macro I'm using in Wow right now:

/castrandom [nomounted, flyable] Onyx Netherwing Drake, Cobalt Netherwing Drake, Veridian Netherwing Drake, Winged Steed of the Ebon Blade
/dismount

It can easily be enhanced to use your flying mounts where available and your ground mounts if you are in pre-BC.  You could also set it up so it will not dismount if you accidentally hit the mount button while you are in mid-flight.  This killed me more than once.  lol

Enjoy!

Awesome!  I have a 77 DK that I'm making the move to 80 with.  what server is the 88s guild on?  I have characters spread out across a couple of servers.  My 70 and 77 are on Hellscream.  I'll have to see about getting a toon up to speed on your server!

« on: August 25, 2009, 08:17:30 AM »
I gave in.  After months of being able to stay away I renewed my wow account for 3 months.  I've come to the conclusion that no other game will fill the need like wow.  I'm no longer on-call and I've been working for my new boss for almost a year already.  Chel is going back to school for her masters so I'll have LOTS of time on my hands in the evenings.  :)  Hope to see some of you out there!

I'm using 9.  Yep, I'll look at Version 11 then.  You can't beat the price for a backup solution.

Thanks Boom!

Software / Software Backup Solution for Windows Vista
« on: July 10, 2008, 03:18:47 PM »
For years now I've used Acronis True Image to backup my gaming rig.  I just ordered a new machine that has Windows Vista Home Premium on it and it will be here in about a week.  Does anyone know of a good backup software that can make both full and incremental backups, while also allowing for easy restores of either the entire system or individual files.  I'm looking around for something that I could use across a network as well.

I've been looking at Norton Ghost.  Does anyone have any experience with it?

I have another new D/W template I've been trying out.  Instead of Lyssa it uses Balthazar.  The difference in this build is I am only use two attack skills.  I've been able to run out from Miles? in SW Istan, and clean house on everything but those rock bugs that come up out of the sand.  Everything else (lvls 14-17) I've been able to wipe out completely without anyone else in my party. 

In Balthazar form I move 33% faster, I use a skill that makes me attack 33% faster, and I use my last skill, an attack, that combos damage because it removes all enchantments on me...and for each enchantment the damage stacks.  The best part, the enchantments I'm using, when removed, give me energy back, so I've finally found a build that seems to be working...even better than my Lyssa build above.

Using it, and farming in Miles? SW of Istan, I make around 7 or 8 plat last night.  It's SOOOO much more profitable when you don't take a healer along with you. 

The biggest draw back to the Lyssa build is that it takes a lot of damage. 

The big problem for this build is hexes.  If I get hexed, or a skill is interrupted, it causes some problems.

Here is another funny one.  With all the buffs from the monk, check out my health.  It lasted around 20 seconds but was funny.

I had to remove my other videos and images due to space, but I have uploaded 2 new videos.

I have a template where I use Avatar of Lyssa, and instead of attacking with my weapon, I use enchantments.  It's close quarters combat, but I pack a bigger punch.

They are only LVL 13 and LVL 14s, but check this out:

And here is the Scythe I'm using now.  It doesn't look like the Boss's I wanted, but it is the same stats.  : )

I also have a short video of her in action.  It's crazy how when I hit 4 or 5 guys at a time that I get that energy back.

I'll be there around 6pm.  Time to break out my profiler software and setup COD4 with my sidewinder.  I tried it out last night with my N-52 and was a worm feast.  Time to go back to basics.  If you are a flyer, don't fight it. 

Looking forward to seeing everyone!!

I have to get some online time.  I haven't played wow in over a month.  Come to think of it...I haven't really played anything in over a month.  Been super busy with work and things going on at home.  I need to get some BF2 and COD2 time in.  I have BF2 ready to go.  Still need to get the updates for COD2 if they are out there and get my controllers setup.
