Back in classic this dude would camp menethil harbor for 8-10 hours a day. It's just as funny now as it was then http://liquidcode.org/~lostman/wow/dkeserver.se/stuff/angwe/
I just want to say BFA is complete trash. I think WoD will look comparatively tame once it’s all said and done.
I like the lore. Due to the never ending cap on gear though I refuse to invest the time it takes to raid at a high level. Since raiding is what kept me around, I unsubbed.
Yeah I've been unsubbed for awhile now. I think at this point I like the idea of WoW more than what it actually is I actually liked WoD but I only played it for the last patch
I still read the wow subreddit from time to time. War mode seemed like a cool idea but apparently the faction imbalance means it's more or less just a permanent horde buff. I feel like something like that never would have gotten in 10 years ago.
So is this final expansion? How are people excited about this still? I wish I could still play, but don’t have the time. Hell, I’d love a new MMO equivalent if possible.
Doubt it. Blizzard will suck Warcraft dry. I think the majority don’t really care anymore. I’ve tried playing other MMOs and unfortunately this seems to be the best out IMO.
If Blizzard wanted to do it right (lol) they would release one more Exp where the Heroes face off against the Old Gods and lose. Roll that into Warcraft 4, baby!
Damnit I want to go back old school but having a hard time convincing myself to do it. Haven't played since WotLK.
i made a dude on a private tbc server and even at 2x the leveling rate holy shit is it slow took me like 3 hours to get to level 12
It’s taken me roughly 100 hours play time to reach level 42 on the Lights Hope Vanilla server, at the normal 1x rate. And this is with a Druid which is one of the faster leveling classes. I think on average it takes about 170 hours or so to reach level 60... slightly less if you are 100% focused on leveling, grinding and questing and not running dungeons. Without a doubt it takes forever and it’s a time sink.
I logged into the stress test yesterday Launch for classic is going to be such a shitshow lol I was trying to tag mobs on my mage and kept getting them stolen because of fire ball's cast time
Tauren for the HP all day Get your Foror’s once DM opens. I farmed it for ever on my Tauren. Like over 200-300 times back in the day. My first alt run on my mage it drops. Got it anyway bc I was with guildies but just hilarious how the RNG is.
+weapon skill is stupid strong though Ultimately your best bet as always is to pick a race/gender combo you can stand looking at for hours/days
I loved my human rogue on Nostalrius. Combat swords did deeps for days once I got my Viskaggs and Brut Blade. I enjoyed more PvE than PvP at the time. I got an Untamed Blade on our 2nd and probably server 4th or 5th Razorgore kill. The MT dc’d right before he died and everyone else had either the 2H sword from Rag or the Drakes. My buddy was a shaman and he pocket healed me in AB and WSG and that was when it was fun. Premades as well. I got burned out in PvP in AV early on because the Unstoppable Force was like the minimal 2H our guild would let you DPS with so I ran it so many times. Problem back then was that there wasn’t any trading and the freaking Alliance would just turtle the bridge. My ice barbed spear could only get me so far at the time haha so I had to power through.
This guy's channel has a lot tanking stuff https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC5xSfo5nMGSmv00sGpRN7SQ Apparently dual wield tanking is the real way to go
lol look at all those buffs. fuck that shit. classic is going to be grindy but much easier than people remember.
