got exactly ZERO motes of harmony leveling my LWer. Now fishing my ass off in the DMF zone for crates. Things have like an 8% chance of dropping, and only 1-2 motes. Have yet to see a single two-mote crate. x.x

Almost up to one whole spirit of harmony after like 2 hours

Yeah, that's about the pace of getting Motes of Harmony that I experienced leveling 85-90. Don't know hoe many hours it took me (I didn't powerlevel at all) but I only had 5 or 6 Spirits of Harmony when I dinged 90.

I had about 5 spirits after levelling (mostly via questing), and my DK who just hit 87 already has 2.

I also just hit revered today with Tillers and got a 12 plot farm going with motes of harmony, so that will be 1.2 spirits per day without any need to grind mobs.

yea i know, and northrend as well, which i am not looking forward to either.

but i am not nearly as burned out on cata as i am on bc, especially after doing 8 ramparts in randoms from 58-62. 1-58 wasn't as bad this time around since all the zones and instances are different than they were last time i leveled thru them, but getting to outland was depressing.

It's a little hard to say since we're in significantly lower gear than what they're tuned for. It looks like 10 man Stone Guard is 4-healed. I'm sure it can and probably has been 3-healed, but the only 2 logs I've looked at were 4-healed, and they still beat the enrage by over a minute (8 minute enrage), so there's not really a reason to try 3-healing anymore.

Feng mostly just looks like a lot more damage going out in addition to a tight enrage. I think some of the guilds that killed it were probably lucky that they killed it before the healing of spinning crane kick got nerfed. I'm sure some would have still been fine, but especially in a 25-man spinning crane kick was pretty ridiculous, so I imagine that definitely eased the healing burden.

3rd boss is probably an insanely tight enrage timer for the current gear, considering only 7 guilds have killed it, and there aren't really any different mechanics to it.

Ramparts is awesome. Outland isn't bad. My plan is pretty much quest in Hellfire until I can get to Nagrand, then do just about every quest in Nagrand. That combined with dungeons should get you most if not all the way to 68.

Cata content isn't bad. I really liked Hyjal even though some people seem to not like it. If Blizz made it so we had to level through Vasj'ir though, I doubt I'd ever level another alt.

got Working Better ach today, paid a guy 2500g to leave his guild. told him it'd take probly 2 hours or so to get from neutral to honored.

didn't think about it, but he was already exalted with his guild.

he joined mine, turned in one quest, and we got the ach. had TOTALLY forgotten that you only lose one level of guild rep, so he just went down to revered when he joined.

feel silly now, but it's still way less than i woulda had to pay to grind out engineering sans spirits of harmony

So heroic Gara'jal was apparently nerfed already.

Quote:

Officialy vodka did use the spellsteal buff to kill the boss. At current gear levels the boss was unkillable prior to the HP nerf. We were running a stacked raid group for dps and the minimum number of healers possible, and were consistently getting the boss sub 4% over the course of hours. We noticed the trash mobs buff on a re-clear and decided to try it. While this is obviously not an intended way to kill the boss, we reported it and confirmed with the developers regarding this method. After our kill, based on our feedback they made timely changes to the encounter and hotfixed the buff.

This explains why there was only 1 kill last night, and now there's 8

gtx 550 ti not up to the task of having 5 screens open at once, even if they are all about the size of an avatar on here.

say i want to combine this:

Code:

WinWait, World of Warcraft, 
IfWinNotActive, World of Warcraft, , WinActivate, World of Warcraft, 
WinWaitActive, World of Warcraft, 


Loop,
    {
Sleep, 1350
Send, 3
sleep, 1350
 }
Return

with this:

Code:

Space:: 
KeyWait, Space, D 
ControlSend,, {Space}, ahk_id %wowid1% 
ControlSend,, {Space}, ahk_id %wowid2% 
ControlSend,, {Space}, ahk_id %wowid3% 
ControlSend,, {Space}, ahk_id %wowid4%
ControlSend,, {Space}, ahk_id %wowid5%
Return

so that AHK sends a jump command to all open WoW windows ever x seconds/minutes. Thoughts on accomplishing?

IfWinNotActive, World of Warcraft, , WinActivate, World of Warcraft, 
WinWaitActive, World of Warcraft, 


Loop,
    {
Sleep, 2000 
ControlSend,, {Space}, ahk_id %wowid1% 
ControlSend,, {Space}, ahk_id %wowid2% 
ControlSend,, {Space}, ahk_id %wowid3% 
ControlSend,, {Space}, ahk_id %wowid4%
ControlSend,, {Space}, ahk_id %wowid5%
 }

I'm not an AHK guru or anything though, just guessing from the syntax.

I think you were missing a needed part in the chunks you posted.

Code:

WinGet, wowid, List, World of Warcraft 

Loop,
    {
Sleep, 2000 
ControlSend,, {Space}, ahk_id %wowid1% 
ControlSend,, {Space}, ahk_id %wowid2% 
ControlSend,, {Space}, ahk_id %wowid3% 
ControlSend,, {Space}, ahk_id %wowid4%
ControlSend,, {Space}, ahk_id %wowid5%
 }
Return

2000 is 2 seconds so you might want that higher depending on what you are trying to do.

If you have a logitech keyboard, what I do is program a repeat macro to press something like F12, then use autohotkey to send some keyboard key to WoW everytime F12 is pressed.

ok, well, first off, it does help if i'm not A COMPLETE ******

bots have to have WoW run in admin mode, and AHK won't work in admin mode. Guess which mode I was in for the last all night?
