That's the other things i was wondering. I've leveled maybe 20 characters to level 25 over the years, it still only takes an evening if there's no spawn contention, right? Is there an "endgame" grind for these runes? Can you sweat out some exploit kills of higher level content?

Ok so what ruined retail? Over emphasis on new systems and ephemeral content to provide progression in borrowed power instead of just, you know, actual content.
Runes is just the retail disease applied straight to vanilla.

There is a ridiculous amount of content in retail wow. More than any other game out there by a metric ton. It might be shitty but let’s not kid ourselves that classic wow’s quests and systems are so amazing.

For whatever reason the old AH is confusing the fuck out of me. I put a bunch of crafted light shot up for cheaper than anyone else, and it doesn't sell. But in the sell window, like your selling per stack you put up, so say my stack of shot was going for 90copper, some bitch had stacks with maybe cheaper bids but were buyout 1s50c and mine didnt sell.
Like right here, 200copper x 1 should be 2 silver, but it's saying the total buyout is only 10 copper, but that doesn't match the screen saying 1 copper vs the tooltip? The other ones I mentions selling for 1s50 were also showing at the top of screen despite my settings of buyout per unit and sorting by the buyout. So someone sorting like I am wouldn't have seen mine despite being cheaper.

Whilst that's true, they (as developers) have shown us nothing (as consumers) to warrant any optimism it'll get more fun/creative in the future brackets. I think this is about 20% of the way there, and they should have leaned into the Classic/CrazyNewThing significantly more. Hunters were blowing up mobs... Great! I thought that was what this was supposed to be? Bring other classes up, tune hunters down (a bit, not nuke the entire build), make some of the shit broken for a while, etc. Instead, we'll end up at 60 and have a few flavor skills with Warriors destroying dps meters and Rogue/Lock tanks being kicked from groups for not holding aggro. If you're going to do Classic Seasons, bust your nut or don't bother. We already have Classic servers that offer near enough the same experience as SOD ostensibly. I do think/hope they'll take feedback from this first season and tweak it, I just think they aren't thinking "big" enough in a general sense. Give us Classic with baseline QOL changes. Give us Classic with each tier having epic/legendaries that fundamentally change how you play the class during "that season". Then gear up and level to the next season cap and do it all again.
All that being said, still having fun and looking forward to the raid - should hit 25 today and will then roll another class for the lulz.

some people in here crying that adding tbc/wrath abilities is just making it like retail and its too much, they should tone it down.
others crying that it's barely any difference and the additions are not near enough, they needed to go way bigger.
swear this thread getting worse than blizzard forums.
Shit's awesome, classic world that feels like a world, with new things to discover and tbc/wotlk class design/feel instead of world of warriorquest.

So, is there a place in a forum guild on a Pve server for a 40 year old who barely played classic WoW because he played EQ2, never raided in WoW until WoD can only play a few hours here and there(newborn baby,) but has the next 3 months off work for said baby?

I'm about the same. I was doing dungeons this morning and had another healy mage so they wanted me to just do damage. I went and got a damage meter so I could see what works best. That's when I realized I was barely beating the priest that uses a wand now and then
Insert joke about bad eq players here.
I don't know if there's some secret sauce, old lady reflexes, or if it is just runes. The only real damage related rune I have is the frost lance I never use.
I'm going to log in and do some rune hunting for sure. I was averaging about a third of the other mage's damage.
