+9 stamina on bracers +7 stamina on boots +100hp on head +100hp on chest Etc, etc. Paladins are unkillable unless you hit their mana pools. Simply manaburn him. Paladins are meant to do 2 things: take damage and heal. That and dispel magic. As a shammy I would use purges more that shocks when fighting pallies. They seal? I purge. They bless? I purge. It worked. Next time you see a pally, use dispel magic and manaburn. They only have one interrupt and it has a long cooldown.

Hey, I want one as well. I won't be buying it unless my finances improve greatly. Gas in my car is more important than a PS3.

Notice they are running it on a LCD display. If this is the case, it would work great. For instance, at my parent's house, they have LCD displays and plasma screens everywhere. It would be perfect. But if you've got a standard tube TV, I just don't see the point. It will look crappy, and although zooming in on the text seems like it will make it readable, you'll be zooming all over the place. It's neat, but I see it as more of a gimmick than anything. Not a system seller by any means. Now browsing the web on your DS or PSP anywhere you can get a wireless connection? THAT is cool. ... Tube displays are higher quality than LCD and Plasma. They just can't be as big without taking half the space in one room. Throw in an HD able connection on a CTR TV and you will have better quality image than on a LCD and on a plasma...

Until they are sold, numbers mean nothing. However, I predict there will be less PS3 sold than Wiis before the end of the year.

Oh don't worry, I've been griping about the price for months It sucks that the price of the PS3 is so high, but if anything, it shows how much consumers want it. I'm sure many really are working to save up for it. Until they are sold, it means nothing.

Actually, it follows a trend of unreliable hardware from Sony. Investors are afraid that he benefits from the PS3 will take too long and that they risk short term loss from their actions. Sony stocks have not been doing so well lately, if I remember correctly. Reasonable investor behaviour.

Rogue was good... however, the good talents could only fill one and a half tree...
-
Will rogues regain the top single target DPS rating or will they gain raid utility? Because right now they got nothing going. People see rogues like jokes (and I'll admit, many people make it easy to laugh at rogues) and invite them to raids to fill up "superfluous" spots.

Level 68... flight form. Druids have reasons to be happy.

The price drop is only for Japan. Kutaragi (who should shut his mouth more often) said that the U. S. and Europe prices will remain the same, claiming that the consumers have come to gripes with the price. It is very possible that the price change comes to the states as well, the announcement has been said in japan because of the tgs, but I'm pretty sure that japan aren't the only ones that are complaining about the price, and I'm sure the media and the users have let sony know about it. Besides, having two very different selling strategies wouldn't be very wise. Repeat after me: So Ny

I know. Usually when someone complains about my build I ask them to change theirs. Usually for something useless. I used to say "go improved distract" to rogues as they are a whiny bunch (well, the 90% of the rogue population that don't know or research their class more than copying whatever her name was on the rogue forums...)
-
Most hybrid classes are missunderstood. While I was pvping with my shammy, people complained that I did not heal myself fast enough. Apparently nature swiftness is something all shammies have. As soon as you are not in a class with a clear role (IE Shamans, Hunters and Druids) people will complain about what you do.

Region encoding is still iffy this gen...

Frankly, I was kinda disapointed, that last boss had easy to spot patterns. So did "secret something I cannot reveal but it is an optional boss." However, I was not able to ge "Secret reward" simply because of the spikes. Also, I am missing one tank because of a stupid lava room... I'll try again and see if I have to put it on slow again, cuz so far I say its impossible. Megaman ZX is a frustrating yet extremely fun game.
-
Take Azeroth, grab the magic in silithus and blasted lands... overdose the world on it until it explodes, and voila, you have post W2 Draenor.
-
I have to say Megaman ZX deserves some mention. I have yet to finish the game, but I have met frustrating bosses. And not the "OMG this is so cheap *stops playing*" bosses. More like "OMG I WAS SO CLOSE!!!*proceeds to try again 25 times*" bosses. Now I am up to the last mission, and frankly, I doubt I'll finish it that easily. Rebeating every boss is gonna be a bitch.

Welcome to new judges, Big Giant Circles and pixietricks!

Right, before that I was responding to your request that Vig "take his dress back." I also thought you were being facetious with that post, but whatever. I am sorry, but I have never interracted with you in any fashion. I assumed you were seriously telling me to get out. Vig has made such jokes at my expense, and it is part of a unmodian dynamic. And you have to admit, while he looks sharp in a dress, he looks sharper outside of it. -

It was not the first response in such form. However, as far as judge images being tarnished, I will make no more comments. -
This game's far from sucky. You just have to...try hard to appreciate it. Anyway, I got ZX too. I like the Metroid-like exploration, but the game could use a better map system. It's confusing as fuck. Right now I'm stuck in that place with the classic lava chase. Goddamit, that place pisses me off. I'll just find subtanks instead. With that said, how do you get that subtank in the forest? The one up the wall on the left? It just sits there and I can't figure out how to get it. PX to the rescue. Go ninja and look around, it should be obvious on the bottom screen... If you take the up road in the lava area, you can reach a machine to slow down lava. However, that climb is more dangerous than the 2 laval areas. For the left to right lava, I simply recommend you put on HX and fly away to the right. For the climb, PX is a better choice simply because you can hang on the thrown chains and jump on them.

PX... the Ninja one? Roof hanging is nifty, and the radar function detects secret passages. Its a good exploration form. I loved LX in item searching quests, and FX well, no need to explain that one, wall breaking + path shots = great for opening passages or killing certain bosses. ZX remains the best boss fighter though. Guess I'll have to try finding items and stuff next time I play... I was up to the "elevator of doom" and I sadly have only 1 chip. The free navigation makes the whole "finding everything in one level" a lot harder.

For the sake of your sanity, I recommend you either stay away from unmod or stop bringing attention to your gender or your self image. In fact, unless you are japanese, drop the -chan, it'll make your life a lot easier. Other than that, welcome to the best website on this side of the internet. -

http://www.unmod.org EDIT: Ya know, I won't stoop to your level. I will remain on topic. The selection process could have been more transparent, yes. But I cannot say if it should have been. On one hand, it is not our website and the process is not ours to begin with, however, in a community where everyone can get involved, from simply suggesting songs, to reviewing WIPs and finished songs, it would have been nice to know how it worked. Sadly this would have led to the same conclusion: people would have questioned the choices. It cannot be helped, it's human nature. All autority will be questionned. I wish to say I hope this "mini-drama" will not tarnish these nominations. While I do not know all the specifics, I am sure both new judges deserved their titles. And finally, JJT, it is probably not the wisest course of action to recommend to members of the community another website. Not only is it unfriendly, it is unbecomming of a judge, a representative of the website, to behave in this fashion. Without a community, OCR would never have grown like this, and frankly, you should keep that in mind. -
Megaman ZX = The Win! Probably one of the best Megaman games in a long time. I am up to the "last" mission (well, I do have to pick up screws...) and it is a great game overall. I still need to pick up lots of stuff, (I only have 2 tanks) but I've been doing well so far. Overall, a great game. The music is amazing (Area O's piano tune is great, and it is one of many enjoyable background music pieces), the controls are good, the story is pretty good too. All and all, it gets 9 Yays out of 10.

I'm not sure what I have to resolve with GLL. Although, he apparantly doesn't like my music, but it doesn't cause me any inner anguish, so I'm totally cool with it. Besides. I obviously sUx0rz at teh fr00ti l00pz I smell a passive aggressive collab. Seriously, when people doubt one anotehr's music making quality, they should do a collab. ... Just saying... ... ya know... Or take things more lightly... -

Beautiful tirade. Really. Self-important, tangential...only remotely on-topic at all. Next time I care to know why GLL thinks he wouldnt be a good judge, I'll subscribe to his newsletter. You can stop PMSing now, they have a real female on the board. Guess you can also return that pink dress.
