WTB Decurse on Curse of Comcast

Author: Jon aka Poor Guy /

Comcast connection sucks balls like KB and Dave loves to take bounce pass. I was in Kara last night. The connection dropped every 30 min or so. I disconnected at least 6 times during the 4 hours I was in Kara. Luckily I didn't cause any wipe on the group.

So I finally called Comcast up and tried to get them to fix it. End result: they couldn't do anything. The CSR told me to call back when the shxtty connection dropped so they can have a read on the signal.

Comcast = fail

Comcast still POS

Author: Jon aka Poor Guy /

Finally POS comcast decided to come to fix my cable internet.

The guy tested my modem and the cable line, then he went to the backyard to take out the filter. He told me I had a bad trap (filter) so he took it out.

At first I thought everything will be back to the good old days... well, not so soon. At nite when I started playing WoW as usual, the internet start acting up again. It dropped connection like a hot potato. Maybe the modem can't handle both Vent and WoW at the same time? Who knows. But it just has to happen at night during my WoW time that piss me off.

Let me call them up again and complain...

Dotfuscator Community Edition 3.0 is free and offers the basic obfuscation. It basically rename identifiers (e.g. functions/variables) to provide the basic code protection to make the source code difficult to read.

Here is the overview of Preemptive's Dotfuscator

Another interesting stuffs about all these reverse engineering prevention is Microsft Sofware Licensing and Protection Services (SLP Services). Please read, I tried to explain it in my own word, but the website simpily explain more clearly and thoroughly.

copy from elite jerks

For melee classes remember one general rule - BEST DEFENCE IS NOT BEENG THERE.

Class list :

Shamans enhancement - kite them like a warrior , if they are 20+ yards away from you they cant hit you. Dont use ice barrier unless they come close and you can time their hits with the barrier. Destroy any grounding totems , i usualy just shoot the shaman , if there is grounding it changes direc

Warrior - ice lance when running AWAY from them so they dont get the charge , then everytime he intercepts you blink.
A simple rule - if you start casting something and he gets shield on + spell reflect - stop + hit ice lance and root again with rank 1 frost bolt if that nova you just broke was the only thing that was stopping him from smashing your head with the stables flag :P

Warlocks - send your rogue in serious - one on one against sl/sl you hardly have a chance , esp if the felly is on you.
I admit i beat them if they have no healer behind them but i guess its because most of them expected easy fight
and didnt try/have everything prepared for a good fight.
Just the usual lance+nova spam + counterspell banish/fear/drain life , this priority. Dont try touching the pet unless you are tryng to run and rank 1 cold of cold slow on it.

Rogues - trink their kidney shot not their cheap shot. Blink off only kidney shot too.
Then root with elemental nova. Remember - cripling slows alot ,but so does the cone of cold - keep them slowed constantly with coc.
And ice barrier should be up on a cooldown.

Hunters - the usual nova + ice lance + coc + pet + nova + ice lance + arcane explossion/fireblast spam until nova is ready off cd.
The moment the pet turns red - blink behind them ,wait for 2-3 seconds for him to eat trought ice barrier and pet to catch up and THEN ice block.
After 10 seconds they are easy pray.
Spam ice lance if they are stupid enogh and try to get an easy aim shot - it interrupts their casting.

Mage raid cooldown

Author: Jon aka Poor Guy /

After reading elite Jerks, here are some cooldown I should look at (copy from elite jerks):
1. Heroism/bloodlust (+30% haste =~ +23.08% dps)
2. molten fury (+20% dmg = +20% dps) --> (yes, this is a cooldown, for all intent and purposes)
3. icy veins (+20% haste =~ +16.67% dps)
4. drums of battle (+5.1% haste =~ +4.85% dps (or less depending on base haste rating))
5. skull of gul'dan (+11.15% haste =~ +10.03% dps (or less depending on base haste rating))
6. hex shrunken head (+211 dmg =~ +?? % dps (figurative number))
7. destruction potion (+120 dmg/+2% crit =~ +?? % dps (figurative number))
8. flame cap (+80 dmg =~ +?? % dps (figurative number))
9. combustion (this spell sucks - At 40% crit rate, it gives you 10%, 20%, 30%, 32%, 22%, 9%, 1.4%, 0.1% crit (on average) for casts 1 to 8.
