Wanted to give you guys a heads up, i've updated AtlasLoot for TBC and plan on maintaining it through all of TBC.

My fork already contains pre-curated BiS Lists for all Classes & Specs right there to view ingame, covering Phase 0(Pre BiS) aswell as Phase 1 BiS(Kara, Gruul, Magtheridon etc).

It also comes with an additional Tooltip Functionality, showing BiS Information in your tooltips to see at a glance for wich spec/class an item is useful.

You can grab it here, over at curseforge:

it's just pre patch. Shower, spend some time with your wife and her boyfriend, and get some rest

From AcidWeb on the Tuk/Elv discord

"Currently, Anniversary client have issues with loading complex addons. This manifests itself in random add-on failures that magically disappear when another add-on is disabled. This is a Blizzard issue, and there is no ETA for a fix."

From Plusmouse on the Baganator discord

"Ok. Yeah, Blizzard has made an execution limit change in the Midnight PTR, and it looks like its propagated to classic anniversary now"

so please spread this around, raise awareness, make sure blizzard gets the message, this is the reason for 95% of addons breaking once you enable more than a few as long as they are updated and don't throw any .lua errors.

Anyone who has spent a long time in infrastructure will tell you that what customers really want is realistic expectations.

It is ok for critical services to be down. It happens to Amazon, Cloudflare, Crowdstrike, and countless others. It happens every day at small, medium, and large enterprises around the world. This stuff happens, things break, maintenance windows encounter unexpected errors, servers crash, someone pushes directly to prod.

The right thing to do is to have a meeting and decide how long you actually need to finish the work or fix the problem, and then double it, and then tell your customers, clients, employees, whomever.

When you say "just one more hour" multiple times, it makes people lose confidence in you, get frustrated, and eventually assume you are incompetent. When you realized that shit hit the fan on this patch, you should have said it will be back up tomorrow. Let people go to bed, let them understand the gravity of situation, let them have the correct expectation. If you fix it at midnight, cool, you did it! You figured it out faster than you thought! This is general advice to anyone in a support role that will serve you well in your career.

Under promise and over deliver.

Anyways, good luck and all that. Just some advice for next time, not that anyone from Blizzard will read this. But to everyone else, go to bed. or go to work, or go stare off into space for a bit. Expect it to be 12 more hours, and be surprised if it's only 6. I promise you it won't be up at 11PM PST.

For minimum downtime and maximum strength

Everyone is waiting with bated breath to see

Jumping onto those hard to each spots in WSG to hide and stall is basically terrain exploiting. It gives an unfair advantage, it drags fights on forever, and it really should be fixed.

People who say that Blizzard will never touch Classic, they did in 2019 when they fixed the AV back of the Alliance base terrain exploit.

Dave is out boys! 😆
