Holy crap, the weekend Battlegrounds give a shit load of exp and honor. I won a Warsong Gulch match just now and I gained almost a whole level just by that. I had 3 bars and after we won I now have only 3 bars tnl. Weekend BGs are amazing. And you can keep doing em. So long as you win you get crazy ass exp and Honor. After we won my chat log was like "3100, 3100, 3100, 3100, 20,000 exp." Or something like that. Its massive.

Did a little PvP on Estat tonight in Warsong (because I *hate* alterac) and I LooooooovVVVEEEE the timer! 25 mins is nice! We won, but I only got 127 honor because all I did was kill shit. <.< But I got somewhere around 8k exp, which isn't *too* bad for 25 mins I suppose, but an instance could give more. Just been putzing around on other characters while my rest exp builds back up on Xelly.
We should get back to our other group sometime, I know Mantorok's is maxed out.

You shoulda done it when it was the holiday BG. It gives crazy exp even for losing, nevermind if you win. This holiday BG is Strand of the Ancients so you have to be 70 for that. I might try it on Kaazur. Get him to 80 real fast. ;D EDIT>> I found the schedule for holiday BGs Alterac Valley Warsong Gulch Strand of the Ancients Isle of Conquest Arathi Basin Eye of the Storm

Found some footage of the first bit of the Worgen starting zone.
I am looking forward to this new race. I like how they can change from Human to Wolf like that. And their zone has a very "Sleepy Hallow" kinda look to it. And the NPCs even dress for it which is cool. I will make mine a Rogue.

Can't wait for the race. They need to show us what worgen females will look like though. I've found one pic, but no one knows if it's real or not. I'm planning druid and death knight for mine.

My Night Elf Rogue Tairotha dinged 70 last night. So glad to finally be able to do all the WotLK stuff now. Only 10 more to go! Going to start doing random dungeons again too, because they reward the currency used to buy heirlooms. I also finally bought Dual Talent Specialization, and made a second, group set. Wiki claims this build, at 80, is the highest single target DD spec there is currently, but it seems to be more about DoT than my typical spike damage. Still using Subtlety for soloing, because I can kill a monster in the blink of an eye with my rotation. Anyways, huzzah! Oh, and Kikaro... i140.photobucket.com/albums/r29/yhamuna/wow/WoWScrnShot_042010_150543.jpgI found your nemesis.

OK I keep reading about how people are getting e-mails that look extremely legit asking you to verify your account information because it's been flagged for illegal activity, and if you do not do so, your account will be suspended. I very seriously much doubt I have to worry about anyone here doing so, but they're getting very crafty and it apparently looks very real, so don't fall for it!
Took a little break from the game, may be back tonight or tomorrow. Just needed some time off. Xelly got to level 40 just by using the dungeon finder and that didn't take as long as I thought it would, so I'm pretty happy with how that works. Because I'm trying to quest as little as possible...though I know I'll have to when I get to Outland because those rewards are just way too good...just hope my computer doesn't blow up again.
I'm off tonight and tomorrow and a morning shift Saturday, unless I'm kidnapped, which I doubt, you guys want to dungeon run sometime? Let me know.

what do you use for your UI? I was using nUI, and really liked it, but then I tried a dungeon while using it and got like 5 FPS. So, had to give it up.

I have no idea what nUI is. My entire UI is hand made by me from multiple addons. Took me about an hour to make.
Xperl for raid and unit frames, Sexy Map for the mini map, Bartender and Button Facade for the action bars, Prat for the chat log, Satrina Buff Frames for the buffs and debuffs, and Viewporter for that purple border that takes up the bottom of the screen. There are other addons I use but they aren't for UI they are more for raiding such as GEM and Deadly Boss Mods.

nUI is an addon that completely changes your UI. Has several built in features. I really liked it, but with the instance lag I can't use it. i140.photobucket.com/albums/r29/yhamuna/wow/WoWScrnShot_042210_010508.jpgThat is what it looks like on default, with the gloss black skin. I gotta say though, good job on making that. I may try to sit down one day with bartender, and maybe x-perl, but last time I had x-perl in an instance, yet again I was lagging. I gotta post my addon list someday, it's getting pretty damn big.

If you're lagging with Xperl then turn animated portraits off. That would be the only reason I can imagine someone lagging with that.

Sounds like a memory problem more than lag, what if you turn off all the addons *except* for your nUI pieces?
About our group, how does around 10pm EST sound? Maybe 11. Depends on when I get home, stuck until 9 on Sat now because I got guilt-tripped into a movie with Samantha, but Sunday is still free after 5 as far as I know. Free tonight too.
