It won't be the same as if you were there originally, but you'll still get out of it what you put in. Find a good guild and you'll have fun.

>no male belf to play
at least I can roll a female human mage like I did back in the day, most male models are fucking hideous. Gear looks fine on human males, but I don't like their animations.

>It won't be the same as if you were there originally
We all know that, the game is still much better than current WoW

need belves to erp with if I'm going Forsaken

Of course it won't be the same, I think most people accept that, but when it comes to the gameplay at least, I enjoy it a lot more.

We will see once Vanilla is done, maybe they add one at that point. It's better that they focus on one project at a time
>I hope their’s lfr and microtransactions so I can laugh at you for being so gullible to believe classic WoW will be as good as it used to be
They'd be retarded to put that in. So many people would quit

If Classic ends up being popular at all, there is no way they won't include progression servers, or just a BC server in general. There are nearly as many people that want that, it's just easier for people to latch on to "Vanilla" seeing as it's just the base game, which I agree with. Start with Classic and move on from there.

If they’re willing to do sharding, I don’t expect anything but nu-blizz shit all over it. Do not mistake Blizz’s intentions, they’re gonna find a way to shit on everything that made it great to make an extra dollar off of nostalgia. I’m not trying to be mean but I feel like the writing is on the wall at this point based on how Blizzard is approaching their new projects with the sole focus on player retention and maximizing profits

>If they’re willing to do sharding
It's just for the beginning. If you have played on any new private server launch, or even the original WoW launch, you know it's needed. Nost servers were horrible in the beginning levels because of this

>we are actually, genuinely, authentically, legitimately, unironically, categorically, assuredly, sincerely, unconditionally, unquestionably, literally going home

Its also literally the reason TBC is the only expansion where everyone starts questing from the same point.

nu-blizzard has a auto report system thats been abused for a while. They're going to add it to vanilla aren't they?

I have a feeling blizzard is going to fuck up classic with all these gay features.

mass loot, if you kill 20 things you just have to loot one of them to loot them all.

(1) Voice discontent about it
(2) Dont boycott the game over it
We've come so far, there is no reason to become split now that the game is finally coming.

I have a feeling that GMs on Classic WoW are going to crack down hard on ganking and open world pvp in general because its "toxic". they already basically eliminated it in retail because of it.

You can just gather huge groups, AoE them all down, then all the loot is pooled together you just have to loot one mob to loot it all.

See you retards quitting at 30-40

Can't wait for another bout of retail paypig tears when it's almost time for it to launch

AHAHAHAHAHAHAH SEETHING RETAILKEK

I want to be a badass tank.
Never played WoW because of FFXI and I want to give it a try.
What class?

this is the only thing I'm concerned about, I have no fucking clue why blizzard thought this was a good idea. at least before when someone ninja looted something, they had a reputation for it and no one would invite them to groups or raids, but it's harder to tell with loot trading shit. they said they wanted to make it easier on GMs so instead of people putting in tickets if they looted something by accident, people could just trade the items themselves, but it seems like such a small thing for allowing that loot trading cancer in.

>Boy I can't wait to go back to the game with LESS shit in it
These threads are the peak of human autism.

Warriors are the best tanks, but it's the hardest class to level

Warrior is the only viable class for endgame raid tanking. Paladins and Druids are good at tanking dungeons, but the former is an absolute joke when it comes to raiding, and the latter can only tank a select few bosses.

How so?

Used to play (fury) warrior back in vanilla and thought that'd naturally be the case again, since they're objectively the best and most complete class. But no, I just had a brain aneurysm and am gonna say fuck it and roll a Ret pally. Let whatever happens happen and try to make the best of the situation. I hope meme spec guilds will become a thing, because that will probably be my only chance of raiding.

Only retarded if you think they'll let you dps come endgame

You will quit at 35 after boring yourself to death for reading a levelin guide lmao

All choices lead to warrior. All others were not viable or very niche, sometimes for off tanking. And you can be a badass warrior by hardly taking any talents in the prot tree. Players who never played early wow are in for a shock at how dysfunctional some of the specs are.

You never leveled a priest then, being oom constantly and having to wand stuff to death.

You didn't play fury unless you were in a top world raiding guild. This is how I know you're a fucking wrathbaby.

You seem real thirsty for this (you), my man. Have it, I'm feeling generous

You can't pull too many mobs at once, combat is slow and highly dependant on gear. But you will always have a spot in the dungeon groups

Warriors are extremely gear dependent, and since there is no +hit chance on leveling gear, you’re going to be missing your attacks a lot of the time. In addition to that, they have absolutely no self-healing, so you have to stop to recover health after every mob, and you can’t save yourself in a fight. You’re pretty much going to be taking a ton of damage and dealing inconsistent amounts of it yourself. It’s very fun though imo and the high skill ceiling is fun to adapt to.

>t. Leveled 3 warriors to 60

stop projecting your bird brain adhd on everyone else you fuckin zoomer

This. Make your own groups, be the tank, and don’t let a single mail/plate user in.

It actually felt like an adventure at the time. Playing video games was, ironically, more casual back when vanilla and TBC were around. I doubt there was such a big focus on gitting gud and knowing everything, so there was a lot more shit to discover for yourself which genuinely felt incredible, whether it was glitching to an unused area or finding obscure quest items in a sprawling dungeon.
This feeling is not going to come back in Classic since you can and are probably expected to just look everything up.

Cataclysm baby here. Played vanilla WoW for the first time on Nostalrius and can confirm that it's not nostalgia, the game is actually really fun and people talk to each other

TBC is just retail but better, it's still just a fucking raiding simulator.

Feels like a real bustling world. Progressing your character feels like it matters. World PvP is god-tier. A lot of things are difficult to get, or at least exclusive. It the least carebear period in WoW.

As a boomer who played actual Vanilla and Vanilla on private servers, Classic will easily stand up on its own aside from nostalgia.

>doomer calls boomer a zoomer
WHAT

Attached: 1533020010995.jpg (1024x595, 69K)

Over the 14 years WoW has been around, blizzard has made tons of changes to the game, to the point where it’s not even close to the same game anymore. Classic is a return to form, and a return to WoW actually feeling like an MMO instead of an ADHD RNG grind simulator.

>waa im a little bitch! you wont make it past level 30, same as me! b-but you're a doomer and i'm definitely a b-boomer!!

warriors arent that hard to level. They suck around 10 to mid 20s but once you get sweeping strikes you can take 2 mobs at once very easily. every 30 minutes you can take on 4-5 mobs on at once very easily with retaliation as well. They are kind of OP if they get their whirlwind axe early which is easy to do assuming you join the server later on.

>nostalgia?
No. Look at OSRS, people said the same thing. "It's only nostalgia, you wont actually enjoy the game, DOA" etc etc. This is simply wrong if you look at the numbers on vanilla and TBC private servers. People really do enjoy this version of the game and it cant simply be boiled down to nostalgia (even though it definitely is a part of it, but less than people think)

Honestly I was part of the vanguard on Elysium, I no lifed to 40 on a lock, and when I realized I had to keep playing to avoid the normie wave, I just gave up and stopped playing. But if they do sharding I might not need to no lfie for 2 weeks to avoid fighting for spawns.

>-22 outside

Retard

stop projecting your bird brain adhd on me you fuckin zoomer lmao

You overestimate the retail playerbase. Like yeah you had to autistically nolife the game on Elysium, but the private server community is waaaay more familiar with leveling than the people who will be playing classic. Most of your competition come classic will be retarded retailcucks and boomers who can’t remember how to level. You’ll breeze past them in no time with half the effort, especially as a warlock.

>priest leveling
>oom
ever heard of spirit tap and spirit gear?
all the shit nobody wants, you want, fucking of the boar and whatever is enough, you don't need fucking int and barely any con is enough. Spirit tap and wanding is enough to chain mobs all day. I leveled all classes to cap in vanilla in different servers, and the slowest one for me was actually mage, they do run oom all the fucking time even with god damn gems and evocation, even if you aoe grind it's not always viable.

How many of you have played vanilla/classic within the last two years?
If you have, what makes you excited to pay for it? The players?

what the fuck are bandages? You just learn to do proper pulls, and if shit hits the fan you do recklessness and that's it. Warriors have op coefficients, all you need is a proper blue weapon.

first of all, why do you want thousands of gold? besides your epic mount, there's not much gold can get you. Sure some enchants are expensive, a few crafted items will cost you a a few hundred gold, but once you're done with those what else could you need?

But whatever you do, don't play balance druid, spell damage gear is scarce, you're extremely vulnerable and slow. Unless you're in a super fun guild no one is going to like you just because you're a chicken.

>i want to be good in pvp but also able to farm up thousands of gold within the first few weeks of hitting 60.
>mage sucks to level
So let me get this straight; mage ticks all of your boxes, but you’re averse to it because you don’t want to put in the effort?

curious how it will work out.
Curious what blizzard numbers will be.
Curious how the community will be different from playing with Europeans, Chinese, and Russians.

Reminder to never play with a speedrunning minmaxer if you aren't one yourself. They're the autists that will ruin this game.

Get back in the dress Skinner we've got BWL in an hour.

it feels like aids to to level for me. And they dont have much interesting niche stuff going on for them as far as im aware of. (never actually got one to 60, one of the few classes) I like meme specs and meme builds that take people by surprise go against the grain but are still very good in pvp, like spellpower reckadin, imp spec warlock, balance druid, fury warrior. Mage seems pretty straight forward and 1 dimensional. idk.
nah they are fast in pvp because you dont actually get moonkin for pvp.
Also what i want the gold for depends on what class i roll. but it mostly comes down to BoE epics that have niche uses like hand of Edward the Odd for shaman or paladin, frozen band for mage, Those chain gloves for warrior that increase weapon skill, etc. Also green items lvl 55+ with +spellpower especially power healing for paladins.

you can respec in vanilla so once im done farming i go to pvp spec. and yeah who wants to play the same spec as every other person. Its not even about being the underdog. Spellpower reckadins are downright OP as fuck. And balance druids are pretty strong too. basically hard counters mages in world pvp. The only spec that would be an underdog would be fury warrior. and thats only because warrior is an underdog unless supported by a group. and fury warrior is actually stronger for solo in pvp. Only considered worse than arms in group because lack of mortal strike debuff.

Was pretty fun tho, they added just enough new extra stuff in my opinion like flying mounts (only in outlands) and kept the lore and still had to attune to do most of the raids.

I don't understand why any purist would hate dual speccing being added, spending 50g everytime you want to change builds doesn't make the game more hardcore, just more tedious and stupid.

It makes it so that if you want to be the funny epic jack of all trades, you have to invest time to do so. It forces players to commit, which is a good thing in any class-based MMO. I’m sorry you can’t be the special boy who can do everything with the click of a button.

Fellow FFXIVfag here. I’ve been around on and off since 2.0. I’ll likely play Shadowretards since it’ll definitely come out before Classic, and then switch over to classic when it comes out. Once I’m raidlogging on classic I’ll probably play XIV as well to catch up on new patch content.

"""""""""""""""lost the code""""""""""""""
Someone will unironically come in to explain that they really did lose the code too, just watch.

if you do that you're stupid as fuck, it takes less time to level and gear a second character with the other spec than spending 100g a week just so you can raid and pvp competitevely on the same slot, unless you buy chineese gold, then whatever you could just buy a top end gear character anyways.

They straight up said they found a backup, so no they didn’t lose the code.
They want to port the game to their shitty new engine so they can integrate their faggot launcher/social service and eventually implement cash shop cancer.

You're all delusional retards as per usual, this is exactly why blizzard wins.

I never said they didn’t claim to lose the code, though. Only a chimpanzee would say that. At blizzcon, they said that they only found the backup once they actually dug deep into their archives upon deciding that they would make classic. It’s easy for some random faggot CM to claim they lost the code, because chances are that’s what they legitimately thought before they did any serious digging.
