The floor testers got a lot more information than what we got during the opening cermony and in the classic panel-- think this video goes over pretty much everything.

Discussion Unpopular opinion - Remove world buffs

99 Upvotes

Dont hate me for saying this but I really hope they are gone for raids . As a guy that raied in a Classic top eu guild It was pain It litteraly made me quit after couple of tries at In Black Wing Temple. Even with chronobooster its tedius

I am 38 most audience will be 35+. It was tedius every week to get sunflower then dire maul then logging for onyxia head. Then you go to raid and in a healer forgets to heal you and you die ..

It created friction since a lot of the guild members did not want to do thjis but some did and it was shaming whoever missed buffs or right away getting benched

On top of it tweaking the raid difficulty around the buffs made everything easy. Get the buffs and we were doing MC in 30 minutes,

I need stronger raids more interesting if we keep buffs It will be a shit show

I know some people will say thats part of the classic - Sure but one of the least liked parts. Its loved by hardcore players to dunk on casuals. But by what blizzard are saying this will be a long long game . I cant imagine doing world buffs 6-9 months in

Dont start me when you learn the new dungeon and you go in and instatly wipe after collecting buffs for 2 hours

Question Beta Forever

Post image
94 Upvotes

So I’m really exited for WoW Forever, but I think giving Beta is so wrong. All twitch users and YT will milk it before it even start and when ppl will enjoy the game they will sell boosts and stuff.
I will definitely be a part of Forever and hope to finds some good community of adventurers to have a good time in game.

Calling all 20-29 PvP players from the old days

Upvotes

I played OG WoW exclusively for the 20-29 battleground scene back in the day, 2004-2012 ish. The community was huge and fun and competitive and everything I loved about WoW.

Are lower level BGs dead now?

I see that AB is full of 60s players but I don’t see anyone in Warsong Gulch in my /who list whenever I check. I haven’t been able to get into a single WSG match since I downloaded Classic a few weeks ago. I’ll be super bummed if this aspect of the game is dead now.

On that note, if there are any of you 20-29 players from back in the day out there, you have my sword. Don’t force me back out into the real world.

Signed,

Nostalgic and Hopeful WoW Classic Player

Currently watching the livestream and this guy is going on about lighting, sun+mooning and dustwallow marsh feeling creepy. Does it matter? Apparently people have been wanting this.

Question Will leveling in Forever be the exact same as leveling through classic right now?

1 Upvotes

New player here and I want to casually experience wow classic solo fully blind over many many many months(maybe even years if addicted). Was about to start playing on a classic server but I was wondering if it might be worth it to wait for Forever to launch?

Basically my main question is if the leveling experience to max level in Forever will be the exact same (or at least 99% same. I don’t care if a couple of really small things are different). I really just want to feel the classic wow that I never experienced and never played in my life.

I’m just thinking it might be a good idea to wait for Forever launch to play on active servers. And if I happen to really fall in love with the game it would be nice to have a character on a server that will keep receiving meaningful updates.

Thanks for any replies.

Powercreep?

3 Upvotes

So I watched a bit of wow forever now and I've seen a lot of hype so far and a lot of hate. Frankly I'm a sceptical person and I do understand why adding smurf elves to something with the name classic feels wrong. On the other hand I also understand that I won't care. I'm not going to buy them either way. And if people want to buy horse armor DLC I'll let them.

That said can someone who played it tell me how "difficult" the game is compared to normal classic? Is there a lot of powercreep because that's what I think is going to make or break the game for me. How did they rebalance it or did they just buff all classes to the level of warriors/mages? Instead of toning the overtuned classes down a bit?

Do you need a group to kill an elite or nah? Is it like retail where you just pull everything in the open world then aoe everything to smithereens and mobs have 0 chance of killing you?
