How are you even managing to play WoW with that kind of latency?

Your tank needs to learn to move around a bit better too. A lot is still about luck but its also a good bit of a DPS race and good movement.

Infernals dropped either right on top of us or on top of tank almost every time... I know that shouldnt be a problem but some ppl dont have good enough reactions apparently. The closest we got was 28%.

Could someone explain the use of stop-casting macros to me please? I'm a Warlock if that helps explain things any. Do you use it for all spells.. or what?

 

 

 

A stopcasting macro is really only useful if you're nuking for a long period of time, and you have a rather high ping. A stop casting macro looks something like this.

 

 

 

/stopcasting

 

/cast Shadowbolt

 

 

 

I've rebound all my keys like this and there's a noticeable difference.

 

If youve got a ping of lets say 400. You're adding an additional .4 seconds on your cast time because of how the game communicates via client/server.

 

 

 

In a nutshell, the macro speeds up the process of the information transfer.

 

The downside to using a macro like this is if you press it too early, you'll stop your cast and begin to cast whatever spell you pressed.

 

 

 

I hope this made any sense at all #-o

The problem with the gene pool is that there's no lifeguard.

krunk already explained the gist of it, but just to emphasize a point; It won't work with instant casts, only channeled spells, like shadowbolt. The global cooldown is "hard" and you can't do [cabbage] about it. Quite annoying as after having played for as long as I have, I've got a fairly well developed sense of how long a global cooldown really is. If I have worse latency than usual one night my DPS will go down, I'll get a lot of "you can't do that yet" and I'll piss myself off because I have a tendency to play by lifting my fingers when chaining long strings of attacks so my DPS rotation just plain dies on me.

 

 

 

And you don't really need a high ping either; If you shave just 0.1 off each shadowbolt cast, you'll have an extra global cooldown after just 14 casts. Over a longer fight, like a raid boss, this will be noticable.

Oh this is too good: corpsegrinder from cannibal corpse has an interview and starts talking about WoW and then continues to freak out about how much he hates alliance. He plays on burning blade btw. You can find the video on youtube.....not sure what the rules of this forum are anymore so I don't want to link it and be banned, but search "cannibal corpse wow" to find it. Lots of cursing, but what do you expect from him :P

Lol why pitty? I think it's pretty fun. At least we know our server has a famous die-hard horde fan.

When I get a job, i'm goign to play WoW too. It's just much better than RS, but it's too expensive. I want a social life, but with 12 pops a month it's hard to go out regularly :( .

Retired

2146 overall - 136 combat - 6 skillcapes

 

Plus I think the whole teenage girl thing will end soon (hopefully), because my girlfriend is absolutely in love with him(she is 18), and im beginning to feel threatened by his [Justin Bieber] dashing looks.

that becomes so.. so.. soo.. much funnier when you actually play WoW because you realise that the tower of Azora / fargodeep mine / Jerod's landing are such crappy low levelled zones.
