As of 3.1 there are now 3 main threads, and many more smaller threads. This means that forcing wow to run over all 3 cores may prove more beneficial then having it run over only 2 cores, as now you can"force" it to use all of the available cores.

Creating Your Own WoW Addon

So you want to create your very own addon do you? Here's a few things you should know before you start.

  1. It is not going to be a quick thing
  2. It will most likely not be a do it and forget kind of thing, unless you only plan on using it yourself
  3. It is programming. If you don't like programming you probably won't like creating an addon
  4. You WILL have to debug your addon. Getting it right the first time is very rare

Battlemaster Guide - Willbender of Kil'Jaeden

Battlemaster

Hi there!

Willbender here! Among the 12K+ achievements out there, I must say the one I had invested the most amount of time into getting would be the Battlemaster achievement.

Upon completion of this achievement, I stumbled on a lot of short cuts and helpful tips I could pass on to other people. Whether it be by pug or premade, I’ll share my secrets and strategies so that you can join the ranks of the Battlemasters of Azeroth ^_^.
