I chose a Paladin as my main... :eek:

I chose a priest >.<

I've had lots of dumb moments. I've sold fused wirings for 1s when it was worth around 10-12g(That was alot for me at the time)

I've also walked off outland while afk. I also remember being at 50% health, hs'ing to shat. Walking down from scryer place with the thought, "W/e, it only takes away 85% of your health. Do the math >.<

I've also miss-ninja'ed lots.

I also tend to forget fishing rods and hallowed helm on while doing arena :) I usally win anyways :p

When I think of it, I remember this one time. Me and a friend was dueling in lakeshire when i got stuck in some kind of tent. Since we knew the PW: fortitude damaged you(In fact it only increases your max health but not the current health making it look as if you take damage. So we dueled and made me loss on purpose. Then I quickly buffed myself with PW: fortitude. Took me a while to find out why I didn't die.

It never happened to me before, but it is extremely funny when someone duels and does the "begging" animation (due to loss) over a campfire. Next thing you know, they are dead. rofl

hm... i think my dumbest moment in WoW was, I got a world drop (like, an epic druid staff) from killing stuff in Quel'Danas while dailying. Well, my friend told me it was worth 250g so i put it up for that price. It didn't sell right away, but after it did sell, I checked the price on allahkazham and it was around 1k gold to 1500 gold... i was SO pissed at my friend.

and, a dumb moment IRL that relates to WoW: me and my friend were talking about a person, and she was 16, but he said "she's level 16". I rolled over laughing on the ground, he didn't notice his mistake... until I told him...

I changed to resto from feral (was a super leet tank) at lvl 66 thinking that everybody needed a healer for PvE. I guess not many people like a resto druid with feral gear. Turns out that everybody wanted a tank ><.

Before TBC existed, you could as a rogue have an epic set called ''Nightslayer'', I had the full set. Also, I had boots with mount speed bonus and gloves with mount speed bonus. One day, I took on the gloves and the boots with mount speed bonus and ended up selling my nightslayer items >.< Fortunately a GM could give me the items back because I had a earlier screen shot of me having them =)

I had to undress dead orcs, undead and trolls for a quest.
Don't remind me about it.

Mana wasting by continually healing myself, thinking I was healing an ally.

The Most Dumb Move in WoW was when I jumped from cliff at Illidan's Black Temple xD

My priest has a minor glyph, slow fall doesn't need a regent.

My dumbest moment is probably jumping off the top of SW Harbour, and missing my target (well, the place I had landed to get the Going Down? achievement :D) by a few in-game metres(?) and ending up dead, just as the frigging boat to Auberdine came in :( Was a boring run back from Elwynn Forest grave xD

Or else the time I accidently walked backwards off Sofera's Naze (I think that's what it's called) in Hillsbrad when trying to get away from some mobs :D

Other than that, I can't think of anything exceptionally dumb (since I don't really know what is/isn't :p)

I remember getting together an amateur PvP raid group; we were going to some low-level Alliance city to kill all the low-level people. I also bought a lot of fire-making equipment (we were going to light the rooves on fire). However, when we got there, we found at least 3/4ths of the number of people we had in level 70 Alliance players, who had top-level PvP gear. We basically just sat on the rooftops until they found us :eek:

Think I just had a slightly dumber moment than before :D

2 Alliance players (one was 42, the other was 70+, since it was ?? to my level 60 DK) were having a picnic just inside the Undercity in the main hall where the throne is (was fairly quite though, no-one attacked them). A mage player within Undercity thought it'd be great fun to walk out, open a portal, then kill the level 42 and dive through the portal again before the ?? could catch him.

All went well, 42 was dead, mage was safely back within Undercity. Strangely enough, the ?? decided to mourn the loss of his companion by dancing with me (and an Orc :p). Much fun was had there

Finally, the level 42 had returned to his corpse - here comes the fun part :D

I thought it'd be great fun to take a stab at the druid and make a run for it back down to the lower levels of Undercity, so I tried it - killed the 42, and made a break for it.

That was when I forgot that the ?? was a frigging Death Knight (the ghoul should've been a clear give-away there :(). Just as I made a run for it, I was stopped by Chains of Ice, then just before I was going to get away, he pulled me back with Death Grip, and pwned me :p

Returned to my corpse, picnic continued for a bit, got harrassed with Chains of Ice for a while, and eventually killed (again), presumably as a result of collateral damage from Death and Decay (since, I assume, the DK was planning to kill the Abominations over me) :D

I have another (not so dumb, more funny) moment. Well, I was in darkshore as a 50 shammy (alliance) a long time ago. I was just strolling through until I saw like a level 30, a 40, and a 59. The 30 I killed somewhere on the path. The 40 and 59 hung together and were both pallies.

Once I was unflagged, I walked up to them. The 59 pally looked at me and so did the 40. They were waiting for me to quickly strike the 40 and they were buffing themselves and everything to be prepared and show off. There was another alliance kiss-up on the side, I think a draenei mage girl. After a while, they stopped considering me a threat as I just stood on the side, sitting in ghost wolf form.

I ran away behind a rock, merely so they would think I've gone and I was curious what they would do now that I've left. The 59 suddenly challenged the 40 to a duel. The 40 acted silly and accepted and got obliterated by the 59, but the 40 bubbled to extend the duel duration. Right when the 40 was at about 1% health....

I jumped out, frost shocked him. Killed him. then I ran away and jumped into a trench because the 59 was chasing me. The pally took the time to mount up so I got a great head start by the time he even mounted. I waited in the trench to wait and see what happened. After that, I waited to get unflagged, then I ran to the 40's corpse to see that he hasn't rezzed yet. I decided to just leave after that. =P

That event was pretty hilarious. I just wanted to quickly smack that blood elf pally, and my wish came true. =D

This isn't really a dumb moment, but it shows that Blizzard truly hates me. I had an undead warlock for a while, and I got to about level 21 before I got really tired of WoW. So, I decided to spend my last days playing making lower levels' lives miserable! I managed to get into every alliance starting town and killed some quest npcs. The security was nonexistant back then...

The day after my newbie raid, Blizzard released a patch that put a battallion of guards at every entrance, before I even got to Northshire! Wonderful!

Luckily, there is another entrance I could get in by jumping over a wall. Did so, and decided to raid some other newbie towns. (T'was easy. Guards couldn't swim back then.) Later in time, I got to Darnassus. I was in the water waiting for a safe place to get out, but I got tired and logged out.

Logged in next day, Blizzard released the patch that let guards swim! My lucky day! At that moment, I got tired of dying to Darnassus guards continually and ultimately quit WoW. The end :p.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
