just like in muh vanilla

starting zone shitshows are not fun
you've see it once you've seen them all
If you really get off on clearing some quests faster than others to gain "muh advantage" perhaps you should reevaluate your life. Or stop being a bitch and prove you can be the top first 60 without relying on some launch shitshow
fresh faggots are the worst

You'll never be home again. That feeling will never come back to you, and you will quickly realize this day one of Classic launching.

Home was 15 years ago, and it's too late to try and go back.

which is still better than the no-content pile of shit we have today
stop arguing already, you're never going to have it your way

if you want to minmax orc is objectively superior

undead will trigger more people

I equate Classic to a War Reenactment: It'll be cute and a bit of fun, but you just can't replicate the time and place of the original game. Back when the internet was still the Wild West, back when you could still barely fathom that you were interacting with people in real time all over your country, back when no one had any idea what the fuck they were doing.

You can't go back.

at least I'll have a main game to play every day again, that's basically the only thing I'm looking for

NO CHANGES

tbc > vanilla

paladins are already great tanks in 5 mans if they spec for it.

TBC is the Resident Evil 4 of World of Warcraft: Great, but introduced the concepts and mechanics that would go on to absolutely and forever ruin the game.

Fuck I'm probably gonna go Orc Hunter but I can't stand Ogrimmar, I'll just hang around Thunder Bluff I guess

"no changes" doesn't make sense because the game had over a dozen different versions over the course of vanilla.

no changes aka druids remain a cúckold class

is that a good thing?

>you'll never experience true vanilla, pserver babby
true vanilla never had the packed zone launch that pservers have experienced. Vanilla launch had constant crashes and you were lucky to even see 50 people in your zone, much less lines to snag sarkoth or something. That's if the server even stayed up.
At the time it was a big joke and players in SWG were lol'ing at the failure of WoW.
Now tbc launch, on the other hand, hellfire was a warzone.
Anyone saying that a crowded server launch "is just like it was in vanilla" is outing themselves as not being there.

Does anyone know of a good write up/videos covering the lore from like WC3 - Vanilla/BC?
everything on YT is Nobbel and I don't like his delivery, and his use of the retarded modern lore retcons
There used to be this great playlist that was low budget and used the in game models and explained EVERYTHING but I can't find it

The Druid ress is the only thing which I'd like to see changed, i'm not planning to play a Druid but seriously why the fuck would I ever want to invite one to heal for me if i'm going to have to corpserun if someone dies in a dungeon.

> slowly leveling a dwarf warrior

No rppvp on launch no buy. I have no home to go back to.

Will MC be out at launch? If so is there anyway a guild can poopsock for a week 1 clear?

They aren't supposed to heal. In fact, nobody is supposed to heal or tank in dungeons. You could tank Wailing Caverns with a hunter pet ffs, and replace the tank with a class that can CC. Classes are meant to bring whatever they can to the table. As a druid, your feral forms are meant to be useful and you shouldn't be relegated to "just" healing.

Probably will be out but it's not clear how different real MC was to private server MC

On pservers you don't need resistance gear

Only Druid players would cope this hard

Why do you think it has to be forever?

Because all you do is cry about the good old days and want them back

Say that out loud

What's the typical debuff spread when 16 is the limit? Can Warlocks get away with CoAgony and Corruption?

i literally had people /lol at me for picking ":the worst race" for my class. i picked it causei liked the animations also the racial is FUN

That isn't mutually exclsuive with having a ressurection ability, at level 55+ and farming for your pre-raid bis why would I ever invite a resto druid if I had to run back to my body if there's a wipe. As a Shaman at lower levels I can specc into enhancement and off-tank whilst being able to heal just fine and i'm still able to ress.
Feral druids are fucking amazing and I wish they stayed as useful for raiding but the entire restoration tree is made redundant by the fact that one misspull/cc break could waste 30+ minutes just because you can't ress your group after a soulstone if your party comp is busted. Yes a resto druid could switch into bear form and maybe hold-off long enough to prevent a wipe but it's too risky

I fucking duoed the first half of BRD with another druid and trioed the second with a mage and a hunter. Designing classes around roles really doesn't matter in 5man dungeons, what's more important is the class combinations for your run and what each player can bring to the table with their build, equipment, consumables, gadgets, etc.

>demo shout
>faerie fire
>winter's chill
>improved shadow bolt
>five curses and none of them are agony
>shadow weaving
>vampiric embrace
>taunt
>hunter's mark
>nightfall debuff
I'm sure there are scenarios where other debuffs are present but this is a solid list. Just so you know, no warlock is ever gonna cast CoA or corruption, just like hunters aren't gonna cast viper's sting.

Gaurentee this faggot will have 40 retards feed him rank1 through faction leaders.

wtf why are bfa players like this youtu.be/Q2_63N5dkRk?t=9m11s

Joining any pre launch “”””guild”””” that isn’t already playing on a private server is a really bad idea because they’re pretty likely to fall apart. You should wait until 60 to find a competent guild because the slow leveling filters out retailshitters who think they’re gonna be hardcore raiders but quit once hey do their first dungeon.
Also, a guild with a few women in it isn’t bad - especially since it takes 40 people to make up a raid group, which means they have less influence. However, since they’re OFFICERS, I would abandon ship if I were you. Putting women in a leadership position never goes well in any guild.

I've narrowed down my class choice to what I believe are the best and most fun classes in Vanilla
>Rogue
>Mage
>Paladin
>Warrior
Which should I choose and why?

That's twelve. Excluding shadow weaving and vampiric embrace because you cannot always count on having a SPriest, you get 6 slots to fill with dots from Warlocks. Also which Curses are you talking about? I can only think of Elements, Shadow and Reck and I can't recall the latter being used often.

of course you will

>viper's sting.

Uhm....sweeties, there's actually some mobs and a boss in AQ 20 where you want hunters to drain their mana.

Yes I know you actually meant serpent sting

Count again, user.
I know numbers are hard.

Actually usually one warlock who brings the imp buff and has nightfall is usually allowed to corrupt to proc it.
Also outside of CoE and CoS the third warlock could cast Agony/Doom

I've got no problems with druids with cables but if you didn't have them, and virtually no druids will have them at classic launch, people should just wait for another healer

Say that to my face outfront of org and see what happens kiddio

Attached: are you serious..jpg (252x349, 13K)

Fuck, I should've went to sleep. So you get 11 slots taken assuming no SP and only those 3 curses I mentioned used, that's enough for some Corruption action and maybe 1 agony, since you'll probably have around 4-5 Warlocks early on.

you know you can do that for free and get far better reactions almost anywhere else, right?

It's about the risk of wiping, sometimes fuckups happen and people break a cc/pull extra trash that just leads to a wipe. I know it's a druids niche to have a CR and swap forms but it's an unneccessary burden on the class and any group which takes them that they don't have a ress. Blizzard should give them one at level 60 atleast if they ever decide to re-balance classes, for a class which is already on the weaker side it's just another negative

to spare me this argument again, I'm just gonna say that would also mean getting wotlk back so no thanks

Any good guild is gonna bring a shadow priest / shadow healer hybrid to boost warlock damage output since they're pretty strong. Maybe five curses was an overkill, but so is doing this very optimal debuff list for early raids anyway. I'm sure they will be a pushover even if the raid is filled with retards throwing serpent stings and deep wounds on the boss.

It's hardly homogenous if every other healer apart from druids doesn't have this issue, i'd be more bored by the corpseruns that could happen if i brought one. I don't know why a druid wouldn't want to be feral for 5 mans but if someone wants to heal they have the freedom to enjoy their fantasy in whatever groups will take them, i'm going to roll a priest anyway so it's not like i'll ever encounter one myself

Amazingly it's worse. Instead of kiddies who want to explore a world or just seeing what the fuss is about this game, you have kiddies who just want to be extras in some e-celebs story.

as the healer, I get to decide who I heal. For example, I never heal Rogues or Hunters unless I accidentally get them in an AoE or chain heal. If the tank doesn't speak english, I don't heal him. I don't heal girl players or female characters

It should segregate. If I want to PvP, I'll do battle grounds. If I want to PvE, I'll do dungeons.

It's basically just a general at this point but no one wants to go to /vg/ since namefags/discord users will ruin it

There's nothing wrong with arenas themselves, but having them be the sole avenue for serious PvP progression is silly, and pigeon-holes classes into very narrow specialized roles. In many ways it led to the homogenization we have now.

Why didn't you say the same thing for the dmc5 hype threads?

So you just get to 60 an quit? Because I know for certain you are not going to get into any premade or raiding guild.

If you want to only participate in one mode of play, you shouldn't be playing an MMO my dude. One of the core principles of the genre is having a wide variety of players with different objectives/skill levels interacting.

It's gonna be different than pservers/actual vanilla. Especially with servers not being on a 0.5 tick, it will change the pvp meta.

Fuck off to /vg/.

Don't forget to do your part!Imagine actually buying the hype created by e-celebs and Activision shills.

no, the game should reward you for how you play and encourage you to do it. if you want to do both then do both

It was easy, keep in mind actual vanilla wasn't like the 14k pop funserver zoomers like you grew up on.
On 2k pop you just need to no life it a little bit.

I don't care about joining an "epic elite pve" nerd guild where you don't come to raid unless you spend all day farming buffs.

And why is it bad? Mana is important

Read what it does, gives you basically no mana at all and you give up extremely good talents for it.

Chug mana pots and use runes.

Easy if you had a premade... not so easy alone

You're competing with other people retard

Yeah, fair enough but it seems not very genuine when most of that was the experience of the day back then. Having all that information of nowadays is just gonna have people go through the motions, knowing everything and exactly what they need to do because there's a wealth of info available. The bosses of then compared to those of MMO's today will be easy, the hardest challenge being getting guilds to set up properly for 40 man raiding.

MC is easy as fuck anyway, 5mans are way harder

But mana tide is for the whole group I thought. I remember raids depending on it at times

Just don't make it clear what server you're on and you're VERY UNLIKELY to get sniped

Raids never depend on such a shit talent, no.

Such as better talents that boosts the raid dps much more than a shitty mana tide.

No, Thunder Bluff is better, there's literally everything you need packed extremely close together, from the fly master you're literally one jump away from crafters, auction house or bank.

>the game should reward you for how play
Maybe you aren't explaining yourself but you can't actually believe this. A game should absolutely force you to play outside your comfort zone if you want the best rewards. Expecting to be given the all the best loot by only playing how you want is completely retarded casual shit.

That's not really the point. I'm saying It's dumb to have top end gear from either PvE or PvP be complete trash when used outside of where you got it.

For lesser-geared raids, I can see mana tide helping the healer group quite a bit. Keep in mind casters in vanilla oom quite quickly and that's often the cause of wipes.

I could, but people in these threads are horrible and I don't want to help anyone.

If you look you will see what I am talking about.

Damage helps way more than any mana tide will ever do.

The whole point was it was SIGNIFICANTLY easier to get the best PvE gear than it was to get the best PvP gear.
The PvE gear would give a huge stat advantage in PvP where it could be leveraged to get even further ahead.
It's retarded to have to do raids in order to stay with the power curve.

I mean restos still do pretty well in BGs. You just won't compete with premades because Shamans really are supposed to be in that ele/resto role where they're basically just mages that can heal.

It's not complete trash though. PvE gear turns you into a glass cannon. It's not ideal but it's not awful.

Not him but I can say from experience Mana Tide is insanely overrated. Raid leads look at it and go "Holy fuck get that it gives mana back." but in reality the amount of mana MT returns is fairly low for the insane CD it has. It's okay to run at the very very start of progression when people are in blues and greens but after you've cleared even MC once or twice nobody is going to notice it missing.

I think you need like AQ gear to become the ultra-powerful elemental shaman, so.

if you want to be competitve in pvp you need raid gear so resto

There will be entire raid groups of Yea Forumsirgins taking down streamers.

There will be double agents on Yea Forums sucking streamer cock getting insider information trying to become efamous.

Having a pair or a group of women in your guild isnt bad aslong as they arent the basic white token girls that usually go into parasocial environments to epicly troll people.

Whee!

Premades still hold the monopoly on honor farming, if there's no fucktard that goes over the honor cap they establish to rotate their members to R14 to buy the weps they will keep low but if there's someone then they will farm so much more honor than you that you will never ever see it.

Troll Shaman are the best for straight PvE because Berserk affects healing cast time, but Trolls don't have any racials that really benefit them in PvP at all unlike Orc and Tauren who have useful ones for both. There's no bad Shaman race though.

Yeah you can make this argument for all three races.
>Wow why wouldn't you want hardiness
>Shaman has no hard disables, war stomps got some good use

They can each be good for their own reasons. It's not like the Priest situation where nelfs are mediocre.

And you will spend most of your time in PvE, if you are playing hardcore you absolutely play troll.

Was in one of the few guilds that actually cleared Naxx so I don't really give a shit about reliving the glory days of raiding.

>either collude with other people to gain the system or account share
God vanilla pvp high end is such trash.

5% health is better than a haste trinket for a healer. If you need throughput, you uprank.

Berserk is good in pvp too.

Not them but faster healing = more healing, while more health =/= more healing.

>This time I'm going to play a rogue and spend hours ganking low levels for no other reason other than to make people upset.
honestly this is the one true way to play the game. I can't even imagine the life someone would lead to NOT do this when they have the opportunity.
I'm going to work, come home, deal with family shit, crack open a beer and genocide redridge until 60s arrive. At which point I will hide and go read a book to my stupid fat kids, pretend to listen to my wife, then come back after the 60s are gone and kill more lowbies. Then go to bed.
That is a life well lived and I am a hero.

Is it really any different than the high-end of any other society, MMO or not?

There's no collusion you retard, it's like saying that to rank high in arena you need a permanent team of skilled people that know what they are doing, premades are simply made to make everyone's life easier, the R14 spot is only 1 for each faction, 1 high warlord and 1 grand marshal, so they rotate it out to buy their gear, not like there's a reason to maintain the rank in any case, once you buy your stuff you'll be sick and tired of premades and just enjoy it in world pvp or pve.

You gotta be low HP to get the full benefit from Zerk, which usually means you're already dead in vanilla PvP, but if you can pull it off and heal back up then yeah

The world must always have prey as well as predators...

5% health is really bad compared to 30% haste for 10s every 3min.

More overhealing.

ZG always ends up being pugged after the first couple weeks. The core gets their idols and they don't want to deal with it, they'll just buy bijous/coins from the mages farming crocs.
And only a handful of guilds actually consistently try for the world bosses, that's literally only a thing for true neets. It's fun if you can swing it for the pvp alone but normal players don't stress over it.

It's not like you can play elemental anyway in raids because they have severe mana issues and can't even last two minutes. You're forced to constantly downrank spells and you won't even be in the top 20.

Same goes for enhancement. You'll be dead weight if you aren't raiding as a Resto. Enhancement is a garbage PVP spec outside of one shotting oblivious clothies. You get kited to shit by ranged. I should know I played enhancement.

Berserking by itself isn't going to make or break whether you're healing enough for a dungeon. It may possibly have an effect in PVP however where interruptions can quickly become obnoxious.

You will rarely see raids willing to take along enhancement shamans when they can take along actually good melee dps. So the entire point of Blood Fury is out the window. Halving the healing you do to yourself for 25 seconds is extremely counter intuitive to those 30/21 enhancement resto builds. So you wont' even be using it in PVP. So the viability of it for Shamans specifically goes out the window.

You're left with Hardiness, Berserking, and War Stomp. Hardiness is great for PVP but your abilities are lack luster for PVE. Berserking is okay for PVP/PVE. War stomp is near useless in PVE but great for PVP. It's all down to your play style. They are all viable and your choice won't make or break your ability to PVP or PVE.

Shamans always heal in PvE and berserking is the best racial for healing.

>thunder clapping
well there's the problem

>yfw classicfags are going to singlehandedly save activisionblizzard with the amount of money they're going to give them

I didn't even think Ele was viable?

Berserking: Increases your casting and attack speed by 10% to 25%. At full health the speed increase is 10% with a greater effect up to 25% if you are badly hurt when you activate Berserking. Lasts 10 sec.

Realistically most of the time you'll only be getting roughly 10~15% of that haste. It's nice yes but it's not like it's essential for clearing raids. You're not DPSing as a Resto Shaman at all.

>There's no collusion you retard, it's like saying that to rank high in arena you need a permanent team of skilled people that know what they are doing
Not it fucking isn't you dipshit. Being on a team to do a team based activity together is not the same as forming a group that agrees to collectively manipulate a server system in such a way that they keep control of it and lower its difficulty. Don't be fucking dumb.
>Hurr durr football has teams, so playing on a team to win the super bowl and meeting with another team to deliberately rig the game and make money off betting are the same thing! Both involve working with people!!!

They chimp out if you call the streamer out on dumb shit.
>LAMO U TINK UR BETTER DAN HIM
>Y DONT U STREEM DEN?

I mean technically in a 21 resto build whether you've opted to go enhancement or elemental you've got nature's swiftness to chuck a healing wave on you instantly so you can get use out of it in that way I suppose.

It's 10-30% for 10 seconds. Even if you would only get 1% haste out of it every single time it would still be better than war stomp, 5% stamina or hardiness.

I hope DHKs don't exist bros. Imagine losing an entire rank when you're R11 because you accidentally AOE'd some stray civilian in the middle of World PVP.

Fucking retard, the arena system works exactly the same, the rank 1 team can grind the other teams as much as they want to establish an unreachable goal (the rank 1 title) for everyone else, the difference here is that in vanilla there's no permanent or unique reward, it's just gear that everyone needs and the upkeep to maintain the title is so great and such a collective team effort that nobody has enough autism or physical time to just maintain it over anyone else.

>roll a warrior
>everyone is a retail baby that immediately lunges into every pull
>pack immediately scatters as everyone runs away in opposite directions

Yeah. That's only logical. But if you intend on PVPing I'm saying the viability of what race you pick extends to all three races. And again, 10% extra spell speed (because the upper limit of 25% is based on how low you are) isn't going to make or break a raid's healing.

People who cry about >muh arena ,are people who always were shitters that could never compete for Gladiator.
I peaked Rank 12 in Classic and Gladiator in Tbc/Wrath.Most of the High Warlods were not the most skilled players on their servers,they just no lifed the game the most.
There were some who were actually good and you would later meet them in high arena raitings,but the majority just grinded 24/7+account share and nepotism/premades.
While I agree arena shouldn't give the only good pvp gear,it is the best way to test the skill of players.The old system really was just a grind with a few decent pvpers and premades shitting on randoms.
The only bad thing about arena was that Blizzard:
1.Never fixed fotm classes or it took ages
2.Wintrading,Laddercheating was very rampant rarely someone was punished
3.They were to dumb to implent differenct interactions for abilities for players and mobs.So they could balance Classes seperate in PvP,that way the PvE Community wouldn't have cried.

Arena>Rated Bgs>R14 System.

Playing 2v2,3v3 with my friends or cousin was on of the most comfy things,especially 2v2.People who want the R14 System are Retards and I will never respect them.Not only aren't they facing they real competition(except the rare premade vs. premade and many of them dodge it),it also is completly unnecessary grind and dumb system in the first place.
I would respect it a lot more if it had a raiting system,where you can't shit on randoms or cockblock actually skilled players by premade nepotism.

mage and hunter will be too popular
barely anyone will want to endless farm shards and do the long shaman quests
so one of them
I'll roll a lock since I did a hunter in vanilla

>tons of world pvp and shenanigans in between all that
Sounds amazing to me

You do understand that people aren't going to turn away Orcs or Taurens because they lack Berserking right?

Ceteris paribus but for race, yes people will.

Not for PVE. For PVP yes. Think of it like a really bursty class that has mana issues. Like Shadow Priest. It has that burst but lacks the sustain of other classes and that's why it struggles in a raid environment.

Only go Shaman if you're okay with being a healbot in PvE. PvP you can do whatever but you're locked to resto in raids. Other than that Shaman is a lot of fun and I you'll see way less of them than the other 3 classes you listed.

Most people avoid arenas because the respec cost and there's no reward for low/mid tier rating.

I played a warlock as my main so I was leaning that way. I played an undead warlock but I was gonna try a gnome warlock and I really don't mind shard farming im just worried it'll be the patch before they removed the debuff limit, with a debuff limit warlocks are gimped in PvE and they're just a shittier mage. I never played a shaman in BC or vanilla but I had one in wotlk and found them fun.

mage will by incredibly popular because they're incredibly useful and always in demand. id rather see a mage in a dungeon run than any other dps caster.

Honestly haven't seen that happen ever and I've played since beta

Enjoy turning away talented players who are running Tauren or Orc for their respective talents for PVP reasons then I guess. All so you can get some meaningless spell haste that literally won't make a difference for healers.

You also only ever raided casually, so your opinions really does not matter on this.

I will never ever understand PVE server cucks who deny themselves this enjoyment. It's literally half of the game.

>undead warlock

does this actually make sense in the lore? Undead are just former scourge right? And the scourge never used shadow magic or summmoning or fire magic, right? That was the dreadlords and their demons.

You would have a better argument for this if you were running Troll Mage or something but man... people pick Undead Mages all the time too.

Begone back to your general you fucks.

tell everyone to not dps for the first 30-40 seconds, also tell healer to keep it down on healing to not pull too much healing aggro

Also been at the top tier pve / pvp level (beaten the game basically) so I think it does

Troll is the best race for casters and healers period. Orc is the best race for melee period, excluding tanks where troll is better.

Almost all shamans in top guilds on nost were orcs, so no.

theres an undead paladin

I mean they're a break away of the scourge and they're given free will upon being "resurrected". They aren't conventional undead

Because I don't find fun killing someone who can't fight back for a reason or the other, nor I find it fun to get killed when I'm at 5%.

>significantly slower than ground mounts
someone never got swift flying lmao

I raided as far as BWL and my raid group never insisted on a particular race for our Shamans. You're probably just some PVE server cuck anyways so your opinions irrelevant in the greater scheme of things. Why else would you disregard PVP racials? Like if you think people aren't clearing the likes of Naxx because they didn't bring a bunch of Troll Shamans along for a 10 second 10% spell haste buff you're actually brain dead.

Imagine creating a game that people played religiously for over a decade and will probably be 2 decades by its death.

>top guilds
>nost
Nost had no good guilds, Nost was a shit server. Argument invalid.

You seem awfully angry. You were just wrong about race for healers and casters on horde, no big deal. Now you know troll > any other race.

Regional servers makes most of them irrelevant overnight, and they're not likeable enough to gain new people. People don't go to the bnet forum and search for "guild that will screech at me, force me to go engineering, and sperg out about my race when im not an alliance priest".

No they won't. No one is going to hang out with these autistic fucks. Not even try hards. You can make a point of saying it is 'optimal' for PVE. Essential? Certainly not.

Mine wasn't an argument, mine was a statement that can easily check on legacy players, also when I say nost I mean all the servers that used it's database, nost,elysium,light's hope.

They're also former humans. They can be every class humans can be, except paladin. Kinda makes sense if you think about it like that.

Follow the discussion this is explicitly a discussion on Shamans. 10% spell haste for all of 4 casts is really mediocre compared to Hardiness of War Stomp on a caster who lacks disables.

But you find fun in fighting a scripted monster that can only fight back based on the parameters of its programming. Humans are so much more satisfying to fight.

and it'll live on

All those servers have in common two things: They have no good guilds and all of the servers are bad, filled with bad players. What bad players do or don't do is of no concern to me.

It's not 10%, it's 10-30%. It's much better than any other racial.

Yeah it sucks when shit happens but 100% HP 1v1s definitely happen.

name a good server please

Hamstring kiting is useful I'll agree I do it too, but rogues trying to facestab just makes you look like a complete tool.

There are no good private servers, they all have their own agenda with their own problems. As far as making PvE as Blizzlike as possible, Kronos is better, but it's still shit.

the one with my fav streamer and my fav thot i donate my nugget funds

Why are you bringing emotion into this when there is none? I posted this I can say with a straight face that you're over estimating the importance of 10% spell haste for 10 seconds every 3 minutes on a class that will be exclusively healing. You are not going to clear or not clear based on healers having Berserking.

Again, it's not 10%, it's 10-30%. It is much better in PvE than any other racial.

It's based on how much health you have. Can you tell me how useful this will be in PVP when you get dropped to 10% HP and then die to an autoattack? Are you saying you would use it then and there? Or would you play it safe and use it early and only get 10%?

>haste is good for healers
why do dps brainlets feel the need to put their worthless opinion everywhere? you lack basic understanding of how healing works, particularly vanilla healing.

doesn't pvp.

I already did pvp server I'm just going to enjoy my time on pve

So anyone planning on actually RPing in Classic? I sort of want to but it's ruined somewhat by knowing all the shit that lies ahead.

>vanilla receives more upboats in leddit and literally everywhere
>all those threads literally CRYING about vanilla when almost none of the vanilla fags were even talking
>all those tears saying how we were just a vocal minority when there were barely any threads about vanilla made by actual vanilla players

Glorious, you can still see the butthurt it caused months later.

Again, it's based on the amount of HP that you currently have. Can you tell me how frequently you're gonna sit at 25% HP in a raid?

I am not talking about PvP, I am talking about PvE where the majority of your time will be spent and where racials are most useful.

Don't post if you have no idea what you're talking about.
On nost there were TWO gms for 14k players
On retail there will be one for 2k

I hate private server cucks so fucking much.

I was decently high ranking in all arena seasons until I quit, I greatly enjoy PvP in BGs or even FFA like the gurubashi arena and duels, I like actual fights, not ganking and that's what happens on pvp servers, it's just a waste of time, though I've casually enjoyed ganking on gankers and the mass world pvp battles when they happened.

>I am talking about PvE where the majority of your time will be spent
But I plan on mostly PvPing

...Metreon Zinthos?

Private servers also had adjusted spawn rates retard. Don't talk.

Let's not count unequipping/equipping gear. If you play correctly you can stay at low hp throughout any raid. In MC you can utilize lava damage on Geddon, Shazzrah, Sulfuron, Golemagg, Majordomo and Rag.

In BWL you can be low hp on Razorgore, Vael, Brood, Firemaw, Chromaggus and Nef.

And so on, and so forth.

Berserking will not make or break your raid's ability to heal through any of the raid content. Simple.

use it at 50% hp

Good for you.

That does not change the fact that Berserking is by far the best racial.

>risking death
No
>wasting healers mana
No
>on a shaman
Shamans heal, priests heal, mages dps.

I applaud you, you are the most based troll of all time because nobody could possibly be this autistic

That has literally nothing to do with my argument that nost had 7x more players per grand marshal than any retail server with a normal cap. Which will obviously effect how easy it is to get r14.

Anyone who plays in a high-end raiding environment will do this.

I'm done giving him (You)'s. I've tried to calmly explain how his autistic minmaxing literally makes no difference and he's still rambling on. You would swear we were talking about a DPS class with how fervently he insists on a haste buff.

You can pvp the way you're meant to perfectly fine on a pve server. big world pvp raids on tarren mill/crossroads also happen on pve servers often enough to scratch that itch.

the only pvp experience worth anything that you miss out on is legitimate equal grounds world pvp with one other enemy player, but that happens so fucking rarely it is just not worth being ganked countless times for.

We don't even know what the server cap will be.

How does DR effect mace stuns? How does DR effect the likes of War Stomp and grenades? If I for instance war stomp someone and throw a nade after will they recieve less stun from the grenade?

But I am the ganker, not the gankee... I cannot relate

I like RP more. And as much as I'd like to do a RPPVP server, RP just never lasts.

>grinding T0 for shits and giggles with the boys
I'm going to waste gold on my 0.5 this time and nobody can stop me.

War stomp is a stun I think. Grenade is a disorient

>T0.5 will be out something like a year after release
Kek, bet you won't be playing or you'll be over that shit by the time.

RPPVP feels like it would just devolve into talentless faggots going there explicitly to get easy kills on 0 armor Roleplayers who are in the middle of typing paragraphs. I understand RPers more than PVE though. I've roleplayed myself. PVE servers however feel empty. Like there's no down time activity in between your raids.

Yeah, surely retail will be fixed by then you're right

Attached: 98028479234324.jpg (1426x1038, 169K)

So they don't effect one another? Wew. Does that also mean Orcs cannot resist grenades?

but the first gank is just the catalyst for something more. if they get mad enough, they'll call guildies to help, hop on their main, or catch the eye of an unfortunately altruistic passerby and get them caught up in your bullshit. and that's when the real fun begins

RPPVP exists for giganeckbeards to roll Human Paladin and pretend they're holy crusaders of justice stomping out evil savages instead of the dress-wearing healsluts they actually are

>tfw priest class call comes up and you spam heal on the min maxing troll shamans

Your gouge would be affected by a grenade I think. Orcs technically shouldn't have resistance to it since it's a disorient. Could be wrong

RPPVP is like one giant server wide trust exercise. And anyone who understands game theory will know how well that goes. Especially if anonymous strangers are involved.

And yeah, I legitimately don't understand someone who is just PVE in modern WoW. I guess they just do dailies, and if they're lucky they have a guild to do stuff. But PVP and RP servers always used to have their own distinct cultures, at least before Moon Guard and Wyrmrest Accord devoured all the RP server communities.

We know retail was 2.5k, so odds are it will be the same.

They used resist disorient as well to but it was patched.

Nah, it'll be using the same server structure and cap as retail, so around 5k or more is most likely, and better.

Before or after 1.12?

I am ready for my Warchief back

Before, they won't resist it in classic.

5k was when nost was at its best. I hope for this.

Thank the gods. fuck orc resist

God I can't fucking wait. We have easily a dozen if not more threads that cap out at 550-600 posts and retail cucks are seething about how we're all just shills. These faggots have no idea how long we've waited for an ACTUAL MMO experience and just can't comprehend how excited we are.

God I fucking miss Garrosh. Why kill him off at all when they just were gonna replace him with himself as a female undead elf

Someone post the us map comparing interest in BFA and classic

Based.

>Resisting Blind
As fuck up as it sounds couldn't that be down to Nature Resistance? Blind was a poison and could be cleansed with cure poison.

Garrosh was the LITERALLY hitler they wanted so they can put in the totally not evil commie undead bitch that does 10x worse but still isn't as bad as gorrosh right guys haha?

What's amazing is that he doesn't realise we want all of those things gone. lmao.

I miss AoE looting though, shits handy, probably the only change i would welcome in classic.

I really wish rather than follow progression they did new content, but only had it between level 1 and 60.

And was made by competent people at Blizzard.

So, literally impossible.

Meh you can still shift click to auto loot. It's not that big of a deal.

thats from october user...

>say goodbye

I don't get it. He's acting like when Classic comes out Blizzard is gonna remove Retail. Why are retailfags so assblasted about vanilla?

Yes, I do want single target looting. Because AoE looting is a convenience feature and ALL convenience features are by definition atmosphere breaking and therefore shit.

the only thing in that list that's objectively good is AoE loot, and it's irrelevant since you're not going to be killing mutliple mobs that often anyway

good luck I'm behind 7 orc racials

of like 2017 as well

>looting 30 mobs.
its a hassle user, if you played old wow regularly you would know this.

Because Blizzard releasing classic is them admitting they retail is shit and they failed over the last decade to make a game better than WoW in its early days after launch.

It was popular, but it was never better because of their design choices, particularly since the people who really made WoW left so soon after WoW was released.

I can't believe people defend transmog, like oh noo now i'll actually know to be cautious if I see a geared player in pvp rather then just rushing into every fight

autists*
fixed that for you user hehe you seemed to have made a spelling error hahaha

Maybe if you're a mage, the rest of us have to move one/two mobs at a time max.

The difference in Classic is that you usually just fight mobs one at a time. Retail you are usually killing a ton at once especially in groups with personal loot. AOE looting is much more needed. Vanilla is slow killing one by one

Unless you're a mage AoE grinding you won't really need to loot 30 mobs at once. I don't detest the idea of AoE looting, but I don't really think it's necessary either way.

Retailbaby fuck off

You almost never had to loot many corpses at once

>he doesnt stack thorns with paladin to farm SM
???????????
I only play p.servers, but nice try retard.

This is specifically why Eve Online went and remodeled all their ships and turrets and shit so it's very clear what someone has on their ship. I always thought it was crazy WoW went in the opposite direction with being able to identify dangers.

Nevermind not interested in your fun server blog posts. Go back to wpsg tranny.

I like the way this isn't actually a criticism of any races but just classifications. Comfy post user.

and that's exactly how i want it
the horde being outcasts who just want to be left alone is comfy as fuck. i replayed the founding of durotar too many times to count in WC3 because it had such kino atmosphere

Because the talent at Blizzard left after WoW was released, and the people who took over had no appreciation for world building or atmosphere.

They couldn't understand how adding features which break immersion like transmog, cash shops or achievements which were not 'real' in the sense they existed in the games world and affected by its rules but were convenience products for people in the real world would destroy the underlying product they were building up from. Like a rot they killed WoW from the inside out by destroying its world.

literally impossible to minmax. If your minmaxing for raiding content your not picking up Engineering for PvP. If your picking up Engineering for PvP you sacrificed a profession slot that could have been used for....let's say alchemy. so now you need to make gold to buy consumes for both raiding AND pvp AND engineering mats. That combined with the fact your competing with all the other "minmaxers" in your guild for gear means your spending every moment you can either raiding or preparing to raid. Meanwhile mister casual shitter just hit rank 11 in PvP and has the full pvp set which is better than prenax raid gear (for pvp). And now he's camping your ass as you farm gold to afford the consumes you need to stay in your "epic" raiding guild. And then lets say after all that you manage to get full naxx AND have a modest supply of free-action potions AND trained engineering after the fact. Well jokes on you cause WoW stopped being fun over a month ago and you can barely summon the will power to wank to female NEs on the IF mailbox let alone gank some shitter outside orgrimmar.

>he instantly assumed i never played classic retail
nice projection.
