Reminder that feral druids can raid tank through naxx despite what all the min/maxers will tell you. Just be prepared to put in all the effort a warrior tank has to, but run gnomeregan literally over a hundred times every single week on top of that. And if you're horde, there will be some fights you straight up can't be the main tank for because you don't have good a way of dealing with fear unless 2 dwarf priests rotate giving you fear ward.

i remember these times leveling a rogue in classic, though on alliance. every zone was a new adventure. i wish i could go back, but i would be going back to friend who's been turned into an animatronic, i know its still him, and it all visually looks the same, but i know its still dead and it isn't going to go anywhere.

I rate it H/H

I really can't tell if people are being serious when they do this

I never got into this in its heyday, I played Runescape and Ragnarok at the time. What am I missing out on?

Is Sword Spec. really that busted? I wanted to go Axe Spec. for crit % memes along with that first fury talent.

You're fucking shit if you let mobs run away in the wrong direction.
No wonder you play UD rogue

raiding is pointless if there's nothing to look forward after having the raid on farm.

you know there will be a point where you won't be getting any content.

and once that happens it's only downhill from there.

only the "core" raiders will still be playing.
then people will start probably begging blizzard to add something new.

i will play it
i know i will stop playing probably once AQ is out.

The closer it gets to release the less I know what I want to play.

Now I am torn between troll shaman and a forsaken, either a female priest or a male warrior

never pick a hybrid class if you dont want to heal
never pick a warrior if you dont want to tank

Fear Ward prevents the fear from taking place. Tremor Totem takes up to 3 seconds to remove a fear. You lose threat when you get feared. You don't want your tanks being feared to begin with.

Remember when they had to kill Zul'Jin but they kept their "for zul'jin" emote?

do your prot stance quest for green weapon and shield

you're pathetic

Who uses mail or plate, leather is where the good stuff is at, so better add rogues to that list.

i went all in on legion and had a lot of fun with a great guild. then boa came out and it felt like a prison as you describe. stepping away was hard, but not coming back was easy. ive been gone for six months.

Shamans are even worse than hunters at rolling for every single drop they can equip.

This is the best way of telling if somebody has never raided past onyxia on horde side in vanilla.

Warrior is one of the best DPS classes.

While leveling people dont really appreciate warriors who wont tank though.

overpower+execute=dead rogue

Orc is better for bloodfury and stun resist, along with axe racials helping during leveling. Tauren's extra stam isn't actually significant enough to be too major.

Yes there is in fact, a fat Aimed Shot crit with Rok'delar on a clothie caught in your frost trap

every dps warrior has to tank in certain fights, no one invites warriors to a raiding guild who dont have a proper tanking set ready to go

Rogue

Sometimes true though that's only going to be a problem with two handed axes and shields. And during 40's when some mail gear is just better than plate.

its the best version of wow for you to try out

Rate this spec for a pve server classic.wowhead.com/talent-calc/shaman/AAPPDTME80EfaA

I'd probably try to play on a private server or something first to get a feel for it. Runescape and WoW are vastly different games that are appreciated in different ways. I wouldn't say WoW has as much grinding to it, but there's a lot of variety in classes that you're bound to find something that sounds good to you.

I r8 it "funserver pros please notice me" / 10

terrible
why do retards keep posting their shitty specs where they randomly throw points around

you have to focus into one thing and not spread shit out like a retard

>unique
its probably the most played class of every single xpac

Shamans have the hybrid mental tax that attracts loads of retards who don't know what is actually good loot for them, so while leveling they might go wild and roll for everything, and later they want to gear all their specs so they keep rolling for everything. A good shaman knows exactly what kind of gear they need, and since its quite bit different from other healers pre-raid exept on a few pieces, they shouldn't be much of a problem, the main problems are idiots who try to gear enha or pve ele that will roll on every possible drop, or those who think shamans use the same healing gear as all the other healers.

Ench/Resto doesn't really go well if you want to raid. And people will literally tell you to fuck off if you actually pick 2 handed axe specialization and expect to get them.

ALLIANCE OR HORDE AHHH

want to make undead male but they are the blood elves of classic

only people using 2h in raids are off tanks

Actually a solid start for a skilled totem twister, drop all the healing touch stuff tho, since you won't use that at all. You'd chain heal all day between twisting windfury/grace of air. Drop all the melee and two handed shit too, you will never use any of those.

That honor DEFINITELY belongs to Warrior.
As a foreverMage&OnlyMage I pay attention to other Mages... what spec they are and how well they play. I never saw that many Mages between Naxx and the end of Wrath. Mage was always middle of the road.

Sadly, I think it's because people just want to play the strongest thing rather than what's fun. When they started to figure out balance and more specs/classes became viable, people starting spreading out to what they actually wanted to play.

Why are you retards responding to obvious bait?

I've never played WoW and have zero horse in this race but holy fuck you home faggots are obnoxious.

Hello, 100 IQ person. Allow me to explain.
That is Nostalrius, not data from the 6 years of WoW I'm talking about. It is not valid data representative of real historic human behavior "of every single xpac."
Nostalrius was full of Chink gold farmers who spammed Mages for better farming. It was also full of people who wanted to do PvE the "competitive" way because they hadn't done it before. This recent era of private servers is not something the average normie knows about or has the will to seek out. What people organically settle for is different.
Man, it's really amazing how annoying it is for some dumb faggot to make a wrong claim within these bounds [________________] and then back it up with something that is not only outside of those bounds, but not even correct on its own.

Is this better?

imagine still playing WoW

>(source)
oh right, you're lying

Engineer always, you need sappers / dynamite for solid aoe threat. Second prof doesn't matter.

Because they are the easiest to play, wow requires all kinds of micro management for every class but rogues and warriors have the very least of it to deal with.

Because most enha gear is wasted and never used, while also being much more beneficial on almost any other melee class. Enha gear is something you should try to parse together once everyone else has most of their gear, and you are only running stuff for money and a few spesific rare drops.

Now give me female draenei and blood elves

Well yea only the most autistic of neckbeards play on Nostalrius so they will roll BIS min/max class. This is not how it will go down in classic, screenshot this if you want. People will try Warrior but as soon as they start getting their shit pushed in in Fargodeep Mines (lvl 6 area) they will reroll to Rogue or Hunter and see how much better they are at killing things. If my some miracle they make it to STV they will probably quit the game 1-2 days in being in that area.

>assuming the proc rate on Nost core was remotely correct.

It wasn't. Most proc rates were pulled out of their ass just like armor values because they didn't have anything to go off of.

Shock cooldown is a useless talent, you won't have enough mana to even care about casting it 1sec earlier. Clearcasting is also meh, because it doesn't affect healing spells, which are the ones you'd like to cast for free. Just go deep enha, but don't pick stormstrike if you use a dagger, and then go for ele or resto stuff depending on preference.

no

I was thinking when leveling, but maybe it's worse at high levels. Yeah, should have read more carefully. Obviously a Shaman should gear enhancement while leveling, but in raids things may be different.
Still, in high level dungeons in 50+, the Shaman should still be allowed to gear enhancement. Not everyone wants to raid, and if the Shaman wants to stay enhancement, he should be allowed to do that.

Oh, and there's almost no Mail with Intellect in the game. Occasionally it may be necessary to roll on cloth or leather if you want to be a healer while leveling.

On a scale from LFR to mythic, how hard were vanilla raids?

Proc rates werent "pulled out of their ass".

You'd want something like this classic.wowhead.com/talent-calc/shaman/AATwDJPABDDKTxk

Clearcasting is a really fun talent though. Optimal enhancement leveling is super boring, with literally no buttons to push and doing nothing but auto attacking.
With clearcasting, you have a 10% chance of being able to cast an additional shock spell in each battle, which is cool. I was thinking the shock cooldown could be nice if I need to interrupt while still on flame shock cooldown, but can probbly do fine without yeah.

Flurry is lame and does almost nothing, everything in deeper enhancement is passive and non-interactive.

Then they have to intergrate Classic into the modern client. Did you think they were going to have it launch from a separate client? No, it's launching directly from the BfA client so you select a Classic realm directly from the realm list, and can log out, hop over to a BfA realm, and play retail.

No, that's not how it works at all. The original client has too many bugs to release, and working with 15 year old spaghetti code is difficult when everyone who wrote it no longer works there. They're recreating it by taking the modern wow engine and modifying to work like the old one.

they rebuilt the game sorta.

>you can't call food shit unless you're a chef

Just give up

And everquest was considered casual trash compared to UO

Healing gear when leveling is just stacking int, spirit and possibly bonus healing, so yeah there will possibly be competition with other healers. Once mp5 gear starts to drop shamans should hoard those, while other healers still stick to +healing gear.
Even while leveling enha shouldn't care much about many tempting melee focused items, since int and spirit are actually really good for them. Agility is also a wacky stat, since it doesn't give any ap for shamans, but the crit and dodge can be really good once you get loads of it. A lot of the warrior dream gear is actually terrible for enha when leveling, but casual levelers don't pay attention to crucial details sadly.

that's not what the post said though

It was in the beta afaik. I think it got changed because some hire up stuck their nose in. I assume the designers wanted a shit ton of class and race diversity, but it had to be scaled back due to pressure from execs in suits

The murder of race and class diversity is a real failure of WoW. If anything I would be okay with them ramping up the race differences so that they were far more prominent. Jesus this loveboner for 'balance' ruined any fun to be had.

The solution is to give other races more unique traits to balance it.

Reminder to stop paying attention to these retarded twitch """"""""""""influencers""""""""

All of them are private server kiddies who didn't even play vanilla. They're all clueless mongs.

Please let me be your healslut magnificent tank

A rather casual MMORPG that doesn’t have any hardcore elements that EQ had, nor does it have any retail difficulties.
On the other hand, it’s got just enough of the immersion elements retail WoW doesn’t have anymore, as well as a balanced early and midgame, which is something retail, once again, does not have.
Chances are you’ll spend most of your time grinding gear just to get accepted into raids that require it to even complete them, but as long as you know your stuff they won’t be as difficult mechanically as anything that comes after.
Should probably also expect it to be drastically different from what it used to be, as it WILL have tools such as a complete database of quests, new addons, etc. We already have a website for BiS for every class and every stage of Classic..
Also, it’s the definition of comfy. I suggest you invite some friends and enjoy the world of Warcraft. You have friends, right, user? And if you by chance do not, then the social aspect is present in vanilla 90% more than retail, so you’ll probably make some along the way.

It's hard to mess up in classic because dungeons go slow as fuck. I understand in M+ 17's if you mess up it's a huge deal but in classic it's so slow paced that you have plenty of time to think about what to do next.

Its funny with all the paladin vs shaman arguing of the day they are both the least played classes.

Both are more interesting than all the other classes except Warlock.

Death knights used to he considered undead at launch and you could shackle undead them for the full duration since it didnt have a separate duratuon for PvP yet.

I use to shackle new DKs in hellfire repeatedly making them suffer for 1-3 minutes of inconvenience

don't go tank, you don't have it in you

tanks just do it and don't worry

make one for classic? retard

The added pressure is the only way to feel invested in dungeon runs
You actually have control over the situation rather than just mashing out damage

Reminder all these meme fury tank specs only work if you already have end game gear.

I'll be laughing at all the retards going these meme specs while wearing greens and blues and getting btfo by trash.

At the start with shit gear it's all about mitigation.

Horde RP sounds comfy. It's just not going to be nearly enough popular come classic.

if they didn't nerf undead then you'd be complaining about how everyone is undead and nobody is alliance.

>reddit spaces without understanding what proper formatting is
congratulations, you got btfo

Better make another Smash thread fast!

I've been having fun dueling in instant servers so far. Burst is a big word, though, but I do enough damage to be able to win eventually if I don't misplay.

That's a trait you want your tanks to have because it means they'll actually work towards not fucking up and letting people down, and tanks need to put in the most work.

being a tank in vanilla is slavery

As a mage I've never once made food for anyone since Vanilla. It has lead to many arguments with pugs and the guy who occasionally tries to get me kicked out of the raiding team because hes too lazy to buy his own food. But a man has to have his lines.

I intend to carry on this tradition into classic.

Also I refuse to make portals for randos and just idle infront of them making tons of portals everywhere

WARLOCKS WW@

Thats the fun. Healers just sit in a corner popping their one good healing spell when the tank gets hurt. DPS just roll their face on their keyboard doing the same DPS rotation as always. But you're the one who has all the pressure on them because if you fuck up, its game over, you pull one too many mobs or the wrong one and you're all dead. Additionally its going to be you who saves the day when the fucking priest pulls aggro again or the retarded rogue is sniffing an NPCs farts and doesnt see the 3 new mobs he just pulled behind him.

Anyway doing a warrior is a right of passage, its the hardest class to level and doesnt get any of the convenience or niceties of other classes.

My favorite is when someone standing next to you asks you for a port, you tell them yeah, cast the port without grouping up and then you just leave.

This isn't actually true, its really hard to get a ban from blizzard these days. They have this system called 'silence' in which-- if people hit you with enough reports you get silenced for 24 hours, then double that, then double that and so on. Human eyes never look at your case unless you try to appeal it with a ticket. Its all automated.

I recently caught one when a guy was discussing one of his IRL female friends who plays the game and I asked in trade "Is it a real life girl or a real life "Girl" next day, logged in and I was silenced with the message in an email "Many reports from other players" as the reason.

Wait what? Druid on fucking Patchwerk when you can't push crushing blows off the table with block?
I gotta see this.

The post I quoted was talking about fury tanks in general. Prot wasn't even a good tree until later in the game when it was fixed, fury tanking used to be the norm because of how shitty prot was.

>wand spec first
>then spirit tap
>then imp fort and shield
>maybe imp renew in there at some point
>then work your way up disc to PI

People keep saying that, but i wanted to specialize a bit and do something different.
If i'm busy healing two melee tards, do i really want to shift out of shadow form to cast, also wands are gay until people start putting shit on AH.
Not trying to be obnoxious, just wondering if for groups, i could do better than shadow.

Retail and Classic appeal to different demographics. Classic will eventually die out unless they make new content for it and it wasn’t even the most popular expansion to begin with because russians are overly attached to Arthas.
You have no idea if you think differently.

>What does "home" really mean to you?
I have no real idea of this notion. Personally I find multiplayer games to be frustrating as fuck.
But anger gives me purpose, and WoW is REALLY efficient at giving me anger, so I'm going in.
I guess ... Home is where I get pissed off a lot?

I think new content is the way it will. Going to future expansions doesn't work because they can't just close down the vanilla realms and maintaining servers for each expansions is something they won't do. Not to mention it would just spread the player population too thin.

It's going to be classic and if that's a success new content for classic.

Crushing blows are annoying but if your healers can't manage them then you have shit healers.

How many people are going to turn me away from MC for healing in my ele pvp spec?

Everybody wants to be a warrior because it's le strongest and they want to be the best damage and tank in the game while also being the group backbone and leader.

It's the Mary Sue class, basically. People just don't realize they're going to have a shit skill level in a VERY overcrowded economy.

why the fuck would you be switching in and out of shadow, you're either healing or you're dpsing.

The way they implemented Northrend was really strange, the whole idea of Dalaran being ripped out of the ground and floated there by the mages who had been repairing their city for so long is almost laughably stupid. And Northrend is supposed to be a hostile place full of the Lich King's servant and home to this vast underground kingdom of insects called Azjol'Nerub, but in WotlK it's like nice comfy leveling zones interspersed with some comedic appearances of the Lich King almost like a scoobydoo villain.
There's also the humorous presence of the "Why don't they just fly into Mordor" meme since the way is open straight to the Lich King's fortress through the air, and most of the players have flying mounts but you still have to sit there awkwardly until the final patch before you can finally go enter the citadel (from the ground, for some reason? there were even airships flying around in his backyard for months prior).
I just couldn't handle that shit.

In my vision Northrend would be like an apocalyptic No-man's land, full of deadly elite mobs and with no safe-zones (and certainly no sanctuary city). It would be like a high-risk, high reward place with a lot of pvp, and a lot of open-world boss encounters. I would even consider having no graveyards in Northrend, so if a player died he would respawn on his home continent.

Retail cucks dont exist anymore man, BFA lost everyone. They went to final fantasy

You take spirit tap and bonus wand damage before going deeper into any tree. Shield your friends up, dot the mobs and then start waving your wand. Heal when needed and just coast by without going oom.

Bruh you heal as usual and go into shadow form when you're killing mobs it's not fucking rocket science
And fucking wand DPS is higher than smite

that's just nost numbers. only true autists grind on the private server. guarantee that retail will be mostly hunters and rogues, especially after they see just how slow/hard/unfun it is to level a warrior

If you're in a group of 3 people, then being a near full-on healer in wpvp situations is more beneficial than being some meme spec. Everyone who replied to you agreed on wand spec since it significantly boosts your #1 source of damage while leveling with only 5 talent points, leaving you to do whatever the fuck you want with the rest. Wands are to priests what 2h weapons are to warriors.

False. They work from the start.

I can ALMOST understand the idea of trying to find "the strongest" to invade ICC, because if the B team got sent, died, and was raised then it could tip the balance of power. But the whole thing was just a clown camp.

Imagine playing the game solely for one aspect instead of enjoying it all to some degree.

Remember when proving you were the best to enter a raid involved huge quest chains and adventure?

Was this excluded because it was exclusive to Night Elves, and it was far too cool and edgy?
I commend Blizzard for keeping them out of the game for so long. Demon Hunters are supposed to be unique individuals who have made a great sacrifice. Only after the lore became a non-lore with mass-Death Knights was it appropriate to start adding this shit.

I liked the argent tournament update, it was the only set of dailies I ever enjoyed doing and the rewards were cool.

I believe they were one of the planned specialized hero classes, that whole idea never got off the ground

How big of a buff is it to have human racials for warrior over any other alliance race?

Yup. But all through ICC it was about getting people in the door as fast as possible and trying to keep them in because the population was flatlining and showing signs of declining (BECAUSE OF THEIR DECISIONS TO DO THIS FROM THE START).

I remember when Naxx 25 was cleared in blues within the first week. It was so fucking easy and it required nothing to get in except somebody to fly up. Whoops! Just swooce right in there!

Human/Orc racials are too good to not take.

gnome works, but you should be running with a pocket pally if you serious about pvp.

Yeah but Gnome Warrior is the true Elder God tier.

>The term "hero class" is commonly misunderstood to mean that the class is more powerful than other classes. The term instead signifies a unique playstyle and experience,[1]
This reads like liberal Wikipedia/Reddit shit.
>hurh sweetie it's MISUNDERSTOOD to mean stronger
People used "hero class" as a joke, to take the piss out of the bad design of Death Knights that made them faceroll powerhouses where a 1 button "cast a random ability" could actually work.

The human sword racial honestly isn't that big of a deal as people make it out to be. It's like a 2% dps increase at best. Congrats on topping the charts in 15 year old content that has quite literally been solved to death

Isn't every class supposed to be that? Isn't that is why there are different classes to begin with?

cope

People were using the term "hero class" before anyone ever knew they were making death knights. The term was rolling around when they were making TBC announcements and people thought they'd make a warden class.

Didn't the mass DKs happen because the Lich King decided to create a bunch of them?
Granted, WoW lore went to shit in TBC and got worse in WotLK, but at least the DK influx has a reason.
The lich king keeping players alive on purpose as his generals ... while we kill his strongest dudes, who already were good enough generals.
A lich king needing to be alive to keep the scourge from overrunning the world ... then why didn't he just fuckin win then?
So yeah, the lore is stupid. But at least the DK influx has a reason.

Illidan did nothing wrong.

SEETHING

So I'm in a pickle. I played rogue back in the day, a warlock on nost and have played a healer/hybrid since late TBC. I enjoy rogue, warlock, priest and shaman in classic. My current thought is to main warlock and have a rogue alt for herbing and general fuckery, but I'm sure if I did that i would miss being a heal slut. What should I do?

Sorry life has made you so jaded lad, the world is a tough place

You guys are literally seething because you know he's right

Illidan legitimately did not do much wrong
Everything we went to kill him for aside from enslaving the Ashtongue were false flags, this was made clear even back then

You have to be very terrible at the game to suddenly suck if you choose a race you want.

Shadow priests do their damage through the warlocks, it's better to trick people into going warlock so you do more damage.

I kinda wish they could bring this back in some form for the Battle.net tab. I miss the old Launcher.

Unbelievably keen. It'll also be winter in Aussieland, so it'll be comfy on top of comfy.

War stomp will save you dozens of times and there's always the added bonus of being slightly taller than everybody else which makes you feel superior. The other races are better for hunters but if you want to be 'selfish' war stomp really helps out and it's not like the racials are going to make a huge difference, if you like how they look pick them since that'll likely matter more in the long run

who cares? they're in one spot in the entire game

Don't put all your eggs in one basket. Statistically, 3-5 of those will drop out.

Also, in my experience, people who play with IRL friends in small groups tend to be dogshit awful in PuGs. I'm not sure why, but the instant someone gets a friend, their quality of play drops.
Maybe getting used to 2manning means you cover each-others' weaknesses and never learn to stand on your own? I do not know.
In any case, see if you can keep your personal skill up. Shouldn't be too hard, but I'm not sure.

I'm jealous man, I've only got 2-3 friends that are interested at all and I live on the other side of the globe from them all. Doubt I'll get to play with them much

Yea it's likely a few will drop out, but again, shouldn't be a huge issue since there's so many of us there's likely to be 3-5 that 100% stay. I can see your point on personal skill too, usually having RL friends playing with you means you're voice chatting whilst playing (which immediately makes coordination much easier), and you tend to get in a certain rhythm. That can fuck you over later in pug groups, but I don't foresee that being an issue for myself, racked up plenty of hours solo doing small stints on private servers over the years and so I'm well used to the nature of pugs. Can't speak for my mates though.

Classic really just can't come soon enough. Hopefully there's no delays and it gets pushed to later in the year.

Sucks bro. With the way WoW servers are split up by region even harder than back in Vanilla, it'd probably be retarded to join their server just for the few times you would get to play with them. But maybe if they're slow levelers or whatever you can throw an alt over there and just play with them whenever the opportunity arises. Best of luck!

Probably warlock. Not sure if ignite is going to function like it does on pservers which is what makes mage dps so high in naxx/aq.

Druids actually aren't the worst in MC. Warriors are going to have such shitty gear without DM releasing that the difference isn't monumental.

dude cmon pls i'm just questing

I haven't pugged in years, but here are the top 5 things I see people fuck up in PuGs:

1. Not casting your group buffs
Seriously. There are more priests that DON'T cast fort, and druids that DON'T cast motw than there are those that do.
2. Not moving forward and fighting stuff
Buggered if I know why, but it seems some people boot up the game, log in, move all the way to the dungeon, to sit at the entrance and wait while the others clear stuff.
3. Not moving to the dungeon
The warlock has been in combat for the last 20 minutes because we are clearing the dungeon. If you had moved your ass instead of begging for a port you'd be here by now.
4. Forgetting to drink
More commonly a problem with healers. They go out of combat when on 10% mana, they refuse to sit down and drink, and then they re-enter combat when they're still on 10% mana ... and the tank's just pulling some lone small patrol who's probably not even elite. That's drinky time.
5. The jump in Blackfathom Deeps / Wailing Caverns
Pressing space is hard

>wahh wow classic thread!
>post more Japanese cartoon girls! We swear THIS game is different from pokemon this time! We swear!

how is your stockholm syndrome treating you bud?

Druid tank isn't a meme, they're basically a more effective fury tank with a less strict gear requirement. Druid tanks being a meme is the meme.

After playing private servers for years I know what I'm in for. I'm sure there are people that haven't played much on private servers that what you said is true, but I'm just seeing this is a better private server, so I know exactly what I'm getting.

Nostalgianiggers are fucking deranged. WoW is trash, its always been trash. Nostalgia won't make you 12 years old again pathetic manchildren. MMOs are fucking trash, and the mods deserve death for letting shills exist here.

My expectations is that it won't be your standard AAAshit, matchmaking only, lootboxes, 20tickrate, facebook and amiibo integration, preorder bonus, free wins just for turning the game on simulator.
My standard is "I would rather play this game than watch paint dry."
It's not a hard mark to reach, to be honest.
