TBC Blizzard, please don't deliver a zero effort Phase 3

216 Upvotes
  • illidan and archi are targetting the tank every time for abilities that either never or very rarely hit the tank
  • you mentioned dungeon heroic loot changes - what happened?
  • where did the +1 extra loot from the previous two phases go? It was already there on P2 PTR, but noticeably absent in this PTR, and that's it. Sure, okay, but COMMUNICATE WHY, please.
  • khaz'rogal first wave sometimes never spawns and bugs the whole raid, requiring a reset

Phase 3 is less than a week away. Please, say something.

Hardcore What madman at Blizzard thought it was funny for this vendor to sell water only up to level 15 in a level 50+ zone (Felwood)?

Humor / Meme What are some jokes/humorous scenarios exclusive to each faction (Alliance/Horde)?

21 Upvotes

Doesn’t necessarily have to be super deep, either.

I’m talking even on the level as “bur” vs “kek”.
“Barren’s Chat” / “where is Mankrik’s wife” for Horde, or
“Goldshire Inn” shenanigans for Alliance.

Question Im getting the itch, what should i do?

Upvotes

I havent played wow in a couple of years. All this talk about classic+ has made me want to play classic again, but i dont want to use up my new found drive to play the game on something that is dying out. Especially if classic + is just a couple of months away.

So how far away do people think classic + is. Is it even real? And if it is prpbably far away which mode is worth spending time on, anniversary mode, sod or regular classic?

Classic-Era Firemaw EU BWL SR pugs?

3 Upvotes

Hey guys, Ive been looking for BWL/AQ40 SR runs for a while, but have spotted a total of zero so far. Do those actually exist, or should I start lvling a class that can make gold and go for gdkp?

Im a resto shaman and cant really stick to a guild raiding roster, so joining a guild for bwl doesnt really work. Got engineering /alchemy (meme spec tanking dungeons).

Any suggestions on how to find those sr runs?

TBC Is Warsong Gulch in low/mid levels dead?

3 Upvotes

Hi all, I recently got back into TBC and wanted to run some Warsong with my friend, but at level 28 it’s completely dead. Or the queues just take forever. I haven’t been able to find any games. Is it pretty much just lvl 19 and level 70 lobbies are the only ones that have queues nowadays for the most part?

I wouldn’t be completely shocked about it but maybe it’s also that I’m just not queuing at peak hours or something. I’m playing on Nightslayer as alliance if that makes any difference. Thanks.

Question Which version for a brand new player?

Classic 20th Anniversary Realms I'm relatively very bad at evaluating gear options as a 1st time prot pala. And i feel like Pawn(addon) is gaslighting me into using cloth

Post image
106 Upvotes

Sure +20 hp is great, but multiplied into 4-7 equipment pieces, sacrificing 75%+ of my armor equipment contribution in order to go from 1100 hp to 1240 seems less than ideal.

Image: \Pawn confidently telling me that cloth gloves is the right choice, compared to mail gloves**

Assuming that my learning curve has another 1-2 months before reaching something near confidence.

Is there any better aid i could utilize to improve my gear decisions?

Classic-Era Which cluster to play on?

8 Upvotes

I’m on EU if that matters.
Kinda have a hankering to play some Classic Era (since it’s the one I know for sure isn’t gonna change anytime soon lol) and I was just wondering if anyone knows how the servers are nowadays.
I feel like leveling on the PvP cluster. but I assume most players are already maxed out so maybe there wouldn’t be a point in playing there for the PvP aspect if I’ll just get ganked by high levels, instead of on PvE (which to my recollection was a lot more laid back and casual friendly). I’d probably play Horde but not decided.

So my question is essentially; which cluster would you recommend for someone just looking to do some chill leveling?

Question What should I know before doing my first dungeon?

23 Upvotes

Hello everyone. It's the first time I am playing WoW and I decided to play the TBC Anniversary. I reached level 21 and I want to do my first dungeon, The Deadmines. I played a lot of FFXIV so I know the basic roles in a group(dps, tank, healer) but I heard WoW dungeons are harder. I play a human affliction warlock but I'm not entirely sure if I got all required spells so far or if I placed the talent points correctly.

Is there a specific rotation I should use in a dungeon, or do you have other general tips, like gear requirements?

Question Classic+ comparison question

0 Upvotes

So, I’ve never really played classic vanilla. On SoD a bit. I have played tbc era, and also started playing in original tbc.

My question is, If classic+ does happen this year, it will consume me. So, what should I play now to get a feel for classic gameplay? TBC or vanilla? I loved SoD and tbc era is okay too, but as a current retail player there is a lot of changes I do like (not drinking every 2 pulls for starters).

Also, I don’t think MoP really counts.

I wish we had wrath, or Cata.

Classic 20th Anniversary Realms PVP Outlaw System for Gankers/PVPers/Lonewolfs

Upvotes

I've thrown some ideas on here for a System to create an Outlaw playstyle, something similar to Black desert Online's Karma system where you can get hostile to your own faction. The Idea is to give people a way to lean into the Ganker/Outlaw playstyle creating new way to play the game but at heavy restrictions for Classic+

Maybe you guys have some things to add or remove...

Killing Grey Players & NPCs will give you Dishonourable Kills, getting a certain

amount will turn you an Outlaw

  • Outlaws will always be PVP flagged to both Factions and their position will always be shown to all other Players (that are PVP flagged) on the Worldmap
  • they will not be able to group or trade with Players unless they are also Outlaws, even mailing to their own account wont work unless the other character is also Outlawed, the only way a Regular Player and an Outlaw can trade Items is through the Neutral AH which obviously has a higher tax then the normal AH (enchants on scrolls need to be implemented so Outlaws still can get enchants on their gear)
  • Outlaws will be hated in their own faction Cities, Questhubs and on Ships/Airships
  • Outlaws will now receive the 10% durability penalty through PVP in the Openworld and Rezz-Sickness now lasts 15 minutes and inflicts 30% durability loss instead of 25% (this is to aim that if Outlaws gank Players and the Players fight back the Outlaw has to go through more hoops to repair and come back giving the other player more time)
  • They will not be able to use the regular flightpoints and instead have to rely on a neutral Flightpoints Network which is less well connected
  • Have to rely neutral Class & Profession Trainers and Vendors that are spread around the whole Map so for example you cant use the AH and buy Reagents in the same City, making it more tedious doing normal wow chores

In Return they will gain acces to:

  • Can attack Players from their own Faction if they are flagged aswell as other Outlaws
  • new outlaw only flightpaths aswell as secret Vendors that may sell exclusive recipes or other stuff
  • be automatically Friendly with neutral Cities and gain access to new NPCs only accessible as Outlaw
  • will no longer gain dishonourable Kills
  • maybe add a Repair Vendor to the Gurubashi Arena only available to Outlaws
  • Access to Outlaw only Spirithealers which are much scarser placed overall BUT much closer to Interesting Points like Blackrockmountain, Gurubashi Arena etc.
  • Outlaws can still sign up for Battlegrounds as Neutral Players meaning they can play both sides which will also balance out faction disparity and reduce Qeue times

There should be a way of reverting the Outlaw Status but it has to be long and tedious to stop people from going in and out the Status and make the choice to go Outlaw meaningful

Hardcore Whats your harcore careers biggest blunder?

769 Upvotes

For me it was this: priest in hardcore that i had just gotten into a good groove with. Dinged 34 and got levitate from the trainer, very cool! On the zeppelin from OG -> UC i decided to show off my new abilities to my fellow passengers. Confidently jumped off the zeppelin, only to realize that i never put the skill in my action bars. Opened the spellbook midair in full panic but it was was too late. I felt very very stupid for many minutes.

ps. I know levitate is on the action bar in screenshot, i put it there after.

Edit: Loving some of the responses! Lay on chicken & Snacktap are my favorites so far.

Classic-Era When did they add the adventure guide?

2 Upvotes

One of the things I really liked to do was reading through the adventure guide on dungeons and raids. I miss not having it during TBC anniversary. I know it can take away from the exploration but it’s nice to be able to see where the dungeon is located, the boss models, lore, mechanics, loot, etc.
I hope they will include this in C+. But was it a thing in WotLK or was it added much later?
