It is far too rare.

I have like a ton of toons but they’re all in the same server.

I have a lot of toons on busy servers but that won’t work for this. Those bosses die too fast.

The other issue is that not only are they single faction tag, but they can’t be done in a group larger than a party. So if 5 people have tagged him, he’s grey to everybody else. It can’t have always been that way. During cata those bosses spawned only once or twice a week.

That’s a bummer.

Is this an actual request, or are you still on your trollstreak?

Well, no need for this now. 5 clients are running smoothly on what I have now. Mog/recipe farming time :smiley:

Unfortunately, WoW is not the same as having Galaga on your emulator running 5 times.

My current laptop plays like a hot potato if I happen to join a world boss fight.

My macbook pro sounds like a jet engine about to take off and doubles up as a heating pad while at the crisp graphics setting of ~ 3.

Counterintuitively, dampening would probably make noise worse.

This trend played out in custom towers already. A few years ago, the trend for cases was mostly sealed up with foam in the side walls for noise isolation, etc with the idea that it’d make them more quiet. That only really worked for small workloads. For heavy workloads, it actually made noise worse because all that dampening acted as insulation and reduced the air being pulled through which meant the heat wasn’t being carried away quickly enough, resulting in the fans running as hard as they can and sounding like a jet engine.

So the quietest laptop would probably be super thick to fit in bigger heatsinks and fans (small fans are more noisy) with a chassis mostly composed of mesh for amazing airflow.

One of the Intel models? I have a 2017 model that I need to trade in, and yeah it gets hot at the drop of the hat. The company I work for provided me with an M1 Pro model and it’s the total opposite, it manages to run WoW at high settings at ~120hz while being barely audible.

It’s M1 weirdly enough. It’s two years old, though. The heat is more noticeable than the sound.

All good. 5 copies of SL running fine on what I have now with little noise. Only real issue was ram but a bump in swap space took care of that.
