certain things are laggy or unresponsive, the UI seems clunky. also idk why but by default the resolution is like 600x400 or something ridiculously small. idk it just seems intentionally gritty compared to classic client.

Well, the WoW Classic (ie; Blizz) client actually runs on DX12, supports the same LUA interface that modern WoW does, has modern WoW's engine improvements, etc.

This uses the OG 1.12 or earlier client. It's going to run like shit at first and default to 640x480 because that's about the baseline res for a game made in 2004 <-> 2006.
Personally, it runs like a dream and pUI isn't bad (check their forums for addons) and it's passable as 'classic' tbh, just not with a client made in 2018.

Hatorade Hatorade thanks. I can't talk yet but I'll let you know. I'm also interested in the holy changes.

I put in for the perma pvp and the 30%exp boost. I don't really see anyone else using it though. Was that a mistake?

So the move is turn it on until you get ganked and then turn it off? That seems to be possible once right?

Have any of you tried a prot pally with their changes? seems like having a way to taunt via judgement would be pretty nice, so far looking towards that

edit: ew i thought they reworked reckoning but its the classic version

I thought Bliz nuked all these offshoots as they popped up, or did that change? Would be cool to play for free and not give them (actibliz) anything.

Blizz can’t really touch the foreign hosted servers. There is no risk this gets taken down.
