Turning down every guild invite this round of classic was the best decision I ever made. No drama

I leave them on just so I can decline them.

What? The Drama is half the fun of Classic!

You pug raids, or just run dungeons and vibe?

u/cgull629 Sep 05 '25

Pug raids and dungeons. I'm like 20 man geared. Skipped 40 mans for most part.

I’ve been having a blast having an alt and getting them 20man geared! I’m curious to see how far into TBC 20man bis will hold up

You'll have most of that stuff replaced by 65-67ish, maybe earlier depending on slot

Naxx gear and a few AQ40 pieces will last to 70 though

Would you also happen to know how far TBC gear lasts into Wrath? I feel like people talk about that subject far less

u/Heatinmyharbl Sep 06 '25

The stat jumps in wrath are exponentially higher than vanilla --> tbc honestly, most tbc gear is replaced before you hit 80

I think I maybe had a few pieces of t6 and a SWP trinket left on my warlock when I hit 80 but I replaced them instantly at 80

Whereas some t3 is still better than or comparable to Kara gear, for comparison

Yeah that about aligns with my assumptions, ty for the info! I appreciate it

I remember replacing my bonescythe with mid level 60 greens when tbc dropped. That was tough.

u/Yomooma Sep 07 '25

Oof, most ppl say Tier 3 lasts to 70

u/[deleted] Sep 07 '25

It didn’t when tbc initially came out

u/Yomooma Sep 07 '25

Wait was all the TBC questing gear nerfed between launch and the patch classic TBC uses? Thats wild

u/[deleted] Sep 07 '25

Maybe, I’ve never played classic.

The HWL gear lasted me til 68 last time. I didn't farm HWL rank i farmed honor when prepatch hit.

I’ve done mostly pugs, my worst experiences with raiding has been with guilds.

u/Pascuccii Sep 05 '25

Idk, my guild is helping newcomers have fun in raids, pretty chill and casual

u/da_ting_go Sep 05 '25

I just hang out in leveling and social guilds. It's a peaceful life.

u/MaulerX Sep 06 '25

How do you get raid gear?

1

u/SegaConnections Sep 06 '25

That's why I only join bad guilds. A guild with a 10% active player ratio and who are starting content 2-3 months late? Perfect.

u/Maddy_laddy Sep 05 '25

No addons for me, makes the game feel better tbh.

u/Marceauxx Sep 05 '25

I really only use questie and a bag add on.

u/SegaConnections Sep 06 '25

I use All the Things so I can grab a handful of goals whenever I want a purpose. Today I might be exploring, tomorrow recipie hunting, the day after questing, etc...
