Real men made their epic mount a cross-racial one, massively inflating the cost via runecloth purchases for rep. My second one on another character was made by getting chinese to farm mats for me to make and sell Heartseekers.

I bought gold too. Spent it all on the mount and some LW recipes. Then my account was hacked but when I got it backed all that was lost were a couple of low level chars striped but my hunter main had been setup as a bot and her bags were chock full of loot that sold for about 600 gold on the ah so I basically got double the value. Oh and Steve Bannon ran the gold trade at the time IIRC and so I helped get Trump elected. You may thank me.

Again I think people vastly over estimate the time needed for classic, yeah I guess if you wanna shitsock end game as fast as possible you could be putting in 30-40 hours a week or if you want to grind High Warlord but goddamn who would want to grind that retarded shit system?

Hell the top end today requires more effort than vanilla ever did. I mean you can't play it in LFR sized 15-30 minute chunks like some sort of shitty Fortnight game but you also don't need to do 8-10 hour marathon sessions either.

You're gonna sleep 2-3 hours a day for a few months for high warlord

This will likely get you banned nowadays if you keep at it. And the popular streamers are going to have gaggles of people around them, with the most popular causing thousand+ person long queues on top of heavy faction inbalance in their favour, provided they're sticking with the old server setup (I haven't bothered looking)


That's a shame. In any decent world pvp game there it should basically be impossible to stream. EvE would be a great example of this, people do stream but usually on a delay or in a situation where it's harmless for whatever reason. On slow nights corp mates and I would go around killing them when bored. I know this was super common among others.

One of my fav things in EvE was That big starcraft streamer guy coming to eve with all his friends. We just fucked with them so hard,. Of course, it really did not help the guy thought he was some genius that would rule New Eden. Then the worse they did the more he and his followers talked and it kinda snowballed.

I would fucking love to get together a guild with part of its mission to snipe all the streamers on a server. Shame pvp deaths in WoW were basically meaningless if I remember right.

It matters when you corpse camp someone and make them rage quit, other than that, yeah, meaningless.

It's a pvp server, that's what you signed up for. It's not against TOS. On the flipside a streamer will have a dozen white knights flock to them to defend their honor in maybe a hopes of seeing a little bit of shaft action so it evens out.

World PvP is the only thing layering will really affect. So if that's your thing and you're specifically trying to find certain people to grief you're not gonna have a good time until it gets deactivated.

I remember saving gold for my first epic mount. I used to farm Ta'Kierthan Songblades in EPL and grind Furbolgs in Felwood for cloth to make bags.

I don't know if you guys are incapable of listening or reading but sharding isn't going to be in the game

"layers" are actual vanilla server size, so it probably won't affect you much past the first week after everyone quits

I farmed the fiery enchant in BRD & reset the instance 5 times an hour to check for the spawn/kill/vanish repeat. At 80g a pop, those scrolls paid for my awesome ram

I watched for a little bit and 1 hunter just kept fucking them in lakeshore. Esfand could have just pocket healed and they could have 2v1'd easily, instead they just ran like bitches. Someone else from their guild had to come save them lol.

I mean at least Asmond is entertaining just from the sperglord levels. I watched a bit of Sodapoppin too and Chance seems good at the game. Esfand or whatever is just riding on the Asmond coattails but who can blame him? I mean if he gets 1,000 subs from Asmonds leftovers that’s still $2,500 a month to play WoW.

I popped into a few others and some poeple I just don’t even get how they have an audience. Toweliee seems like a faggot with no personality and bad at the game. Swifty I guess was good at Vanilla PvP and made videos but just comes across so fake. I’d rather watch Methodjosh who is pretty good at the game and even puts Asmond to shame on the cringe levels plus his character is good enough I can’t tell if he’s pure grade A autistic or pretending.

So many streamers are terrible, but in a way I want to be a terrible streamer making $40,000 a month to eat pizza and react to YouTube videos.

Was 1.12 the patch before TBC? Having played a mage in Vanilla I seem to remember that patch making me super OP in BG's. I wonder what makes them think that patch was the best balanced patch for Vanilla because that's not my recollection at all. In fact didn't the Naxx patch significantly change threat to make tanking far easier as well? (which hurts classes like Rogue/Hunter and helps DPS Warriors etc)

Seems like just defaulting to the last Vanilla patch is going to change the game completely from what it was like at launch.

So, nobody gonna mention how Hunters had to roll engineer and farm their own ammo bc it depleted on every gd shot?

Also, getting dazed every time you tried to run from a mob...
