Memento

Thursday, November 12th, 2009

After failing my trial with “The Brethren” guild have started a trial with Memento, seems like a sound bunch and the GM is really easy going. Really hope will pass the trial with them.

My DPS is yoyo up and down a bit and Memento have been really nice about it and have tried there best to help me out with it looking at the combat logs and so on, but so far we haven’t discovered why its high on some fights and low on others.  I think it all comes down to for fights where I have to move my dps drops as a result, whereas fights where I dont have to move at all or very little my dps is really good.

Update: I have failed my trial due to the dps yoyoing thing, have tried to get help on this via various forums but sadly lots of people viewed my post but equally sadly none of them choose to reply to my post to offer any help or assistance.

Update 2: Memento’s GM got hacked and the guild was disbanded, and all his characters transferred off the realm as currently Silvermoon has a free transfer available.  We only just found this information out recently and the GM is getting a blizzard authenticator something which I already have and I think there great, and would recommend them to anyone that asked.  So his account is currently locked and under investigation for 30 days until he receives his blizzard authenticator by which time he will be allowed to transfer all his characters back and have them restored to there original state and hopefully we will also get the guild bank and its contents back too as we had loads and loads of flasks all ready for when Icecrown patch was released.

Blizzard Downloader

After something interesting a fellow guildie from Deorum Animae said in guild chat one day and something he posted on the guild forums, found out a whole new way to get the blizzard patches for world of warcraft.

Basically it involves downloading and installing a bittorrent client, I personally recommend bitcomet utorrent, but there are a fair few clients to choose from each with there own advantages and disadvantages, once you have done this go to where you have installed world of warcraft too i.e. “C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\” inside of that folder there is a cache folder inside of here you will find a .torrent file open this in your torrent program and you begin to download the patch in a much faster way as the Blizzard Downloader isn’t that great a bittorrent client in that it doesn’t support a lot of things, for example upnp and dht to name just a few, there maybe other things it doesn’t support however and things that it does, but overall a proper bittorrent client seems to be a much better choice to get the patches as for me personally I have experienced a much faster download rate from using utorrent over the Blizzard Downloader.
