  1. Yes, melee players should also get same error message to inspire understanding to this blizzlike feature. ;) In different expansionI have unpacked .mpq and using Audacity replaced content of Error message sound file with silence.

    Local devs should consider this particular change - there is a healthy limit of creating blizz-like environment and little pleasure in hours long whooping over your ears.


  2. Hi all,

    anticipating alot however I might forget it waiting for TBC relaunch. ;)

    TBC used to have nasty trap with farming rep - instance mobs were providing the gain only until Honored (pls verify, it's been 10 years) and then it was slow grind to get Revered and unlock heroic modes. But if you'll grind Hellfire Ramparts / Blood Furnace until you get sick and follow with grinding Slave Pens and Underbog until you can't see it again (i.e. hit Honored rep) - only then start doing starting TBC quests. They will bring you nicely through the gap to Revered.

    My result - two keys to Heroic modes at level 66.


  3. Opinions here on multiboxing are funny to say the least. (MUST participate in spirit of the game... alt tabbing through clients... lol). Staff doesn't fall far behind if families/friends playing from one IP are sanctioned for that.

    Solid fact is that contemporary PCs can run so many accounts that such players could easily choke the server.

    Boodk, solution from Marcelo20XX is right for you. I recommend however to try other version of WoW, e.g. WotLK onwards where you are able to orchestrate all classes in one group (interact with target feature). There are even servers without m-boxing sanctions.


  4. Topic is alive and maybe some good will come of it thanks to that.

    I'm glad to see that you call the thing for what it is - cartel. I have to admit that I haven't thought about offline implications of that but you're 100% right here. Creating bottlenecks and ridiculous prices was what was keeping the gold trading in WoW early days going as well.

    Flood of insults you get shows that you hit the soft spot here, trying to bully you into submission is as childish as it is effective so keep it up. Goal here is for server owners to evaluate the situation and make a stand - either tolerate this organized action or adapt TOU appropriately.

    Okay, might as well get this started off on the right foot

    I'm offering a 0.1 BTC bounty for a pull request that is well-tested, accepted by the Elysium staff, and is merged into core that fixes this problem:

    AH is terribly slow and so maybe the communication between client and server is slow in this case as well?

    Anyway, do I need to google how to assemble a server or you're post some guide too? I googled some info and read what discord guys chat about but would be easier with instructions on forum.


  6. This will be an unorthodox but I always enjoyed Piercing Howl tanking of mob groups while DPS peels them off one by one of me. I kite them closing in to get some rage, AoE threat on group and direct threat on main assist target. Your healer should use less mana so can speed up runs a bit.

    Plus its really fun!

    Without speaking specifically about this case, a couple of pointers for those who want to avoid getting banned:

    1. You may have up to TWO accounts online at the same time temporarily (and they must be in the same capital city or goblin ah city)
      1. This is for the purpose of trading items with an alt, portaling your alt, buffing your alt, having your alt do crafting, that kind of thing. 
      2. This allowance does not extend to using the AH, it is intended for actions that you cannot do by logging out of one character into another
    2. You may have these accounts logged in together only temporarily for these purposes. This means 10-20 minutes max (use your common sense)
    3. You are not allowed to abuse any kind of anti-idle/anti-afk tool, it doesn't matter what it is or how it works. 
    4. Using any kind of external automation tool is botting and is a permanent ban offence

     

    It is really funny case however aren't you adding fine print to TOU here? Or worse allowing each GM personal interpretations of TOU how much time is allowed online? Be transparent, add these points to TOU instead making a poo to it.

    Also, you've reserved the rights to change TOU without any notice to users who agreed to it - silly but wth it's your house, your rules - if any as according to this case GMs are free to interpret what can silently change at any time.
