It's annoying but just how I do it, I'm easy going

Well it turns out the in-game equipment manager was enabled. Turned it off and my equipment problems vanished. Odd that it was intermittent.

People don't seem to realize that gear does not equate to skill. They think they can just power through some Ulduar HMs like they are nothing, and some of the fights you can. The ones that take you to know what you're doing, however, is a whole 'nother beast.

Yeah exactly - everybody in the raid was ICC geared, but several people started acting like retards thinking they could just faceroll their way through Ulduar hard mode. It was really annoying that 3-4 people basically ruined the whole raid of what was otherwise a very competent raid. Most of the people in the raid were present at the last achievement run and knew the encounters. I just hope that the raid leader has patience enough to host another achievement run because otherwise I'll never get the dang glory of the Ulduar raider. I'm 3 achieves away from it.

Bleh massive fail on yesterday's Ulduar PUG raid to get achievement. I don't know why idiots join if they don't intend on staying the whole raid. It's an achievement run. It's like they think since it's an older zone they can just turn their brains off. Raid lasted an hour, we wiped 3 times on Iron Council because people weren't dispelling enough and then 3-4 people just left which caused a cascading raid call. Last Ulduar raid 2 weeks before lasted 6 hours and we didn't get every achievement, but I stayed until the end and did as best as I could given it was the first time I was that deep into the zone.
How the hell do you "not dispel enough" on a fight with a single ability that needs to be dispelled with a known timer and looooong cast time? LOL. Firefighter/Yogg would have eaten that groups breakfast.

Just got my uld 25 drake this weekend, shit is hard and there's no way you can "outgear" several of the fights. Thinking about doing 0 light next week if there's enough interest, couple people missed some easy achieves and I think we're going back in.

Good luck.

Ulduar is no joke, and won't be for awhile. The fights require competency that most people don't have. 0-light 25m is near impossible to PUG unless you get REALLY lucky. Firefighter? Good luck. Most of these decently geared people who are 6/12 in ICC will never get a drake unless they get carried to one. Guilds on my server sell them (and are selling LK titles now), but actually finding people do it is very hard. Juddog, if you need a holy pally or a hunter that has done all the fights on 25m let me know because I still need the 10m drakes. The group will NEED a vent and have to be a decent set up. A paladin tank for Iron Council is recommended. They can dispel themselves when needed.


On a different note: What do you guys use to sim? I tried Simulation Craft, but I am having trouble configuring my gear to regem for all ArP instead of Agil (Survival Hunter here). I spent like 4-5 minutes with it last night, and can check it out more later, but I wasn't liking it too much.

Hmm interesting trick; hopefully the PUG ulduar achieve run can do that next time. The main problem was one of attitude. I knew from the start it would be a fail run when we were doing the very first boss and some jackass rushed in their with his vehicle before we even had the strategy explained on vent.

I've always used Simcraft.

BTW, LK HM down. We were so close a couple weeks ago, 11% wipe, and then people went on vacation. Oh well, better late than later.

Hunters use that spreadsheet. If I remember correctly, it supports gemming choices and if not, you can consider just looking at EP values as you change each gem over to see if the value changes too much or simply change them all over and check the reported DPS.

RAWR will also list if certain gem combinations in the same piece of gear are better, but I don't know if the RAWR Hunter module is up to date.

I am done with Blizzard. I forgot to remove the authenticator from my account and flashed a new ROM on my phone. Now I cannot get into my account and the support number has a full hold queue? Seriously? 11 million subscribers and you can't have more than 10 people answering phones? This company is such garbage.

Post a removal request on the support section of the WoW forums.

Also, I updated my phone to iOS4 and I didn't have to do anything with my authenticator .

Yeah. The problem is that almost everyone who has actual Ulduar experience or skill level is either already in a hardcore guild or isn't playing anymore. Instead we're flooded with noobs in good gear who can't even get a regular Yogg-10 kill.

I use Female Dwarf to "spreadsheet" my Hunter.

I am using Android and I flashed a rooted ROM. I'd assume since it completely overwrote and did not upgrade, is why the token no longer worked. Can you post a link to where to do the removal request please?

EDIT: NM I found it.

Arrgh... I'm so close to completing my glory of the hero! Only two more achievements that seem to have plagued me for what seems like an eternity, and they're both from Gundrak.

Less-rabi - I've tried this probably ten times now and every time I fail. I'm getting desperate at this point; I think I'm going to offer 100g per person to make the perfect team tonight and give it another shot.

Share the Love - Tried this so many times and each time I fail. It's like the PUG groups always have that one retard that can't stop DPS'ing while trying to do the achievement. It's even worse with everybody geared up because he dies so quick while the DPS'er facerolls.

Their phone support sucks, but I'm surprised you didn't get the physical authenticator device instead?

We pugged 25m 0-light Yogg this weekend, but most of the raid were people from the best guilds on the server. That fight is no joke. Glad it's over. Managing sanity is such a pain in the ass on that fight.

I'll be happy once Cataclysm comes around. My guild has HM 25m LK but then that's it. We've gotten him to ~ 40% and truthfully there's nothing fun about the fight. So long and so many little things that can go wrong...

What do you guys feel is the most fun hard mode?

We're only 8/12 and working on LDW now, but I'm just completely over ICC. If we got everyone but LK down I'd be fine with it. The only fight I tend to still enjoy is BQ Heroic because I get to sit there and do 12k HPS

Well, I'll say that LK HM 25 is not fun. Too many factors that are completely out of your control. A winning attempt not only replies on flawless execution but a fair amount of luck, it can get pretty annoying at times. LDW is still a pain in the ass sometimes too, because some people slack off and forget to run from ghosts. You'd think after this many months they'd learn to focus.

My favorite HMs are Sindra, PP, and BQL.

So, I cannot have the authenticator removed by saying I was hacked... I still cannot get through to Blizzard. I have sent them an email and if I am not able to log into my account today, I will be canceling it.

How are you not able to get through to them? I was hacked a couple weeks ago and I called them directly fromt eh numbe ront he website. It was a long hold time, think they estimated it at 45 minutes but it was over an hour for me to finally get a support rep. Once I had them on the line they worked quickly to correct the issues. I just set the phone on speaker and went about watching TV and cooking dinner etc. Are you egtting dropped fromt eh hold queue?

Probably Putricide because there's lots of movement and his voice is awesome.

I've done Less-Rabbi in randoms twice. It does take two or more people interrupting, but the last interrupt has to be done at around 30%, before he starts casting. The achievement I hate the most is Watch Him Die, because retarded tanks in randoms will just try it without telling anyone and no one will break the web wraps.

I cannot even get into the hold queue. The only message I've received when calling has been some crap about a high volume of calls, the hold queue being full, and to try again later. Since they are too cheap to pay some Indian guy in Mumbai $10 a day to answer phones in a call center, they do no deserve my money. 11 million subscribers world wide and you don't have enough phone support? Retarded...
