They should be buffed by 200% or more on stats and shorten enrage timers. Is the only way to make bosses with such easy mecanics last long. Once Realm First is done the content can be tunned down for the new players to also be able to kill the bosses.

yes, the same as classic, just pay for subscription.

ty

We do enjoy ourselves, and we have been for a year and a half now, and we shall continue.

is it even worse than x42.000 silithid carapace solo grind ?

I can't tell if this is meant to be a joke or not, but we've already had the classic grind, and classic was very successful. So, rose tinted glasses?

Sheeeeeeeeesh

there isn't one, they said they need to do alot more work but people are predicting it will be 6 months

i was 12 when it came out. literally the best thing in my life

The Burning Rats

I'm sorry to say but anything Activison Blizzard runs will be a complete joke, Exactly why so many ppl have quit Wow classic it's just a bunch of false promises by them and sucking as much cash as possible for as long as they can.

Until they f it up like they did reforged.

"The Dark Portal" 1:50

@Joey Jojo Junior Shabadoo the problem with anything that's not retail is it would fizzle out and die due to receiving no updates. I would prefer they take WotLK era and take it in a new direction, new content in the old style, just like oldschool runescape (which thanks to this decision making is now one of the top 3 MMOs in terms of player count)

@Louthinator honestly I don't know. If it were up to me I would have the 4 versions of the game (Retail, vanilla, BC & WotLK) all running and people choosing which era they want to play in, or some kind of repeating progression, when you get to the end of WotLK it runs for a couple of years then starts at the start again and you can run through the game from classic through to LK playing each expansion as it arrives.

@Felipe what I would like is classic experience continued after wotlk and to completely avoid the adaptation phase...

i see WoW in 3 phases vanilla to wotlk = classic experience cata to wod = blizzard trying to adapt the game to new mmo standards legion to now = modern WoW

@Firelord Eliteast67 I'm generally in that camp but I will say mechanics wise most people are all about BC. Don't get me wrong the first thing I said when Classic was announced was "PLEASE let this succeed so they do BC and THEN WRATH!". Wrath was the peak subscriber wise at 12.6 million subs.

The level boost isn't an issue. They specified what it was for and they knew that they'd play with fire. You get one paid for level 58 boost. A single boost. You would probably be wise to use that on a paladin on Alliance or a warrior on either faction or a rogue. Otherwise, with some AOE boosting in dungeons, you can get your belf or draenei to 60 in the prepatch pretty easily. I'm just glad it's only one boost. It's for people who never played Classic and want to catch up with their friends. We're not getting this paid boost culture. They're implementing boosts how Blizzard should have implemented boosts from the beginning.

Holy heck this is so bad everything would be better than this i would rather have wow tokens or store mounts.

@Vaedeer honestly the only problem I have is managing my mana. And stocking mana potions is fucking expensive.

@Yuki Terumi Yea, the mage is a leveling powerhouse.

@Vaedeer I looked up best leveling class and stuff and also I wanted to do something different as I main fury, DK frost, and offhand tank Pali. So decides to be a caster. Turned out ice mages were hella good in classic so here I am lol.

@HerpimusDerp 😀 yeah we're really enjoying Shadowlands too! Honestly, everybody I know that plays is too. With the new Vicarious merger thing I feel like WoW is in safe hands, and BC is coming back baby omg yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaas!!!! Lok'tar!!!!!

​@jack I wasn't implying you got the current expansion with that. I just mean as far as the subscription goes. Thanks for clarifying for new folks. Hope to see lots of people checking BC out. Also Shadowlands ISN'T TERRIBLE. I mean it's not like it's WoD or early BFA.

@HerpimusDerp not "current" WoW. All of "retail" wow through BFA, the previous expansion. Current WoW Shadowlands starts at 39.99 + subscription. (Just clarifying for any new/potential players reading)

Man guild wars 2 just so much better.

They said you have a choice in the announcement to advance a Classic character to Burning Crusade or keep it Classic. So YES they will still have WoW Classic as well as this. All still for one sub including current WoW in the bundle.

@PapaJake Delusional andy...

@PapaJake. "Nobody"? Source please.

@Eltharyon Ormand said no one ever

@belstar yeah, no it doesn’t. But good to hear they weren’t making any other changes. Level boost is fine. Affects nothing for tbc classic. Thanks for the info

Because of the ridiculous level boost that is a sign of them turning classic into something similar to wod.

@Zynokyno yeah I know about Nostralius. And while I kinda understand your issue, it’s blizzards game. There is no reason for them to let a 3rd party run their game for other people for free. And classic was a better version than nostralius anyways. I’m glad nostralius did what they did so we got actual classic but there was no way they would of just gotten away with that for free

@Eric Hall Nostalrius was a vanilla wow private server before classic wow that everyone was playing but Blizzard issued a cease and desist letter, and so the Nostalrius server was shut down on April 10, 2016, leading to an outcry on Facebook and Twitter and large-scale coverage in mainstream computing journalism. (Yes it was because of copyright and it's bullshit) This was the whole reason classic wow exists.

How do you mean

You can play this shit with your mother’s MS-DOS Potato dude

@Eric Hall at least 30

@Drako Lo Garnus how many buttons is that?

@Eric Hall i dont know about that. i have had a full hotbar on my dark knight for awile.

@Drako Lo Garnus ffxiv is less complicated than wow. Or at least classic wow. So less things to map to buttons

@Jake Carroll not sure which way your intending that but yeah I don’t understand why level boosts get so much hate. As long as they come at the end of an expansion they really don’t matter

@Eric Hall imagine not playing one of the best xpacs because theres a level boost 😂

@belstar the first part of your statement I somewhat agree with. Modern wow is missing a lot of that feeling of exploring and immersion. The one thing modern wow has over classic. And it might be the only thing. Is incredibly better raids. Like absolutely no comparison raids are better. But that’s about it. The level boost doesn’t matter at all. Classic is at the end of its cycle now so who cares. And your gonna still need to go through Outland

@Eric Hall All the changes made in cata and mop and wod they made the game so streamlined it is like you never need to leave the city you just que for dungeons and pvp i know they later started forcing people to do quests but that is not why i want to play mmos like wow i want to explore the game world with other players And a level boost will be terrible because it just confuses new players and lets you skip a huge part of the game ts not like the modern wow where the leveling is broken and short its not a big deal for veteran players and most people playing wow now are veterans it just makes the game look bad

@belstar I mean I don’t understand why anyone cares at all about the level boost. Doesn’t affect anything. But the second part of your statement what’s that referencing

that is more or less how i feel. like this feels like the most second oh(with a shurg)moment i have had today.

😂

Damnit
