Back in my days I pulled out a newspaper cause having a cellphone then was rare, too. Bet a lot of u fuckers touch ur phone half as much of the time while ur playing WoW, huh. Just an anecdotal, satirical rant *smiley face I’m level 31 in STV and love the shit out of that zone. Though I see I’m soon to be in desolace and remember that being a horrible zone to grind out in vanilla. | ||

The 32-buff cap is wrongly implemented as a 32 aura cap, highly problematic because lots of stats on gear like +hit, +crit and many talents wrongly count as auras inside of that cap. All of those bonuses fill most of the cap without you doing anything. Adding more by equipping certain pieces of gear / enchanting / getting a buff like arcane intellect is literally making gear with those stats stop working (and thus people with hit cap are missing bosses etcetc) because people reach more than those 32 auras and the "gear auras" no longer fit within the cap, so the stats no longer apply to you. edit: Fixed soon, and actually more complicated than that: https://classic.wowhead.com/news=295171/wow-classic-hotfix-for-buffs-falling-off-before-cap-and-aura-problems ----- I've taken quite well to playing hunter&mage but not warrior so far, don't know why it's going so badly. I've been duo playing with a priest but my threat output w/ 1h+shield is atrocious (can hold 1 target with equal level dps) and overall damage output is not good. Big problems even with healer aggro - if i focus on one mob to stack a few sunders etc, any additional mobs in combat will go wreck the healer. If i split threat to hold anything, even my heal can pull any of them off of me by wanding one. I'm rage starved to begin with, so any aggro loss is followed by severe rage starvation and i can never really get the mobs back (taunt pulls it for a few seconds, it hits me once and then swaps back to whomever is generating threat because i don't have the rage to hit it with anything) The only real successes i've had is fighting 2 mobs at a time to be able to juggle them and hold both, but they still take a lot longer to die than i think they should to be efficient. Should i be playing more DPS-y with a 2h weapon right now, both in open world and dungeon tanking? This one is still low at the moment (level 18). I'm sure there's some stuff that can be done to make war+priest wreck faces that i'm not doing right now! Be mindful that you probably have a complete garbage weapon compared to what a priest can do at super low levels. When leveling a priest I can do significantly more damage than a tank just by swp + wanding (with wand spec talent). Priests don't need to cast anything else. As a warrior once you get your first good blue weapon, you really feel your power go up. Basically just look for the best 1h or 2h you can get damage wise, and ignore whatever is on the actual weapon for stats. This is a reason a lot of staves are really good for warriors early game, they have huge damage ranges compared to other 2h and they can over double your damage output if you get one (BFD staff off 2nd to lass boss has 12 int/11 spi but massive damage range, and is one of warriors best weapons until WW axe for 2h). | ||

-- The real vanilla experience is having thottbot in ur background and having to alt tab They actually removed fullscreen mode from the client, so no alt tab delay but we have a permanent 1-screen-refresh of additional input lag. On the subject of performance i did get in a 40 man raid a while back to see numbers, i do have a bunch of addons on (not as much as BFA, but then again not nearly as much needed) and i was hanging below my 232fps lock for the first time. In combat it was hanging around 180fps in 40-man which is still double the FPS of BFA in a 20 man. | ||

But yeah i am similar to the warrior guy, i play tank and i just can't quest with friends because its not fun when you have to loot 10 items each in like a <40% drop rate and its 1 drop per loot so you gotta kill like 80 mobs to both complete said quest. Leveling through dungeons was fine but after the second run i usually started to switch off a bit. Oh well, still will play it randomly, maybe when i get some time off from work it will appeal to me. | ||

Maybe in a year when they make a more 1.0-worthy version and dump the exclusivity. https://us.forums.blizzard.com/en/wow/t/feign-death-trap-bug/278131/382 So was/is classic. The point is what people enjoy more than anything with these things is novelty. | ||

Am talking about things like denuvo - they're just taking so much away from the game for benefits which only apply to the publisher, not the consumer or developers. And yeah, playing the same game for 5000 hours without a break is a lot harder than playing it for 3000 hours now and 2000 hours later. --- Warrior tips went great! I bought a lvl 15 blue 2h right away then got a cruel barb for sword+shield. Rank 2 thunder clap at 18 and then cleave at 20 + 5/5 on the stancedance talent and everything is starting to come together. | ||

I bet you didn't even move back in with your parents and started going back to high school Also wrt BL3 I had a similar experience in that after the 4th Slay the Spire character hit beta, I lost all interest in Classic and haven't logged in since. The game got a ton of players thanks to the hype train (especially streamers) and it's starting to see the drop off that everyone but the diehard classic fanboys predicted. | ||

and it's starting to see the drop off that everyone but the diehard classic fanboys predicted. I don't agree with that. People are not playing 16hrs a day every day any more and some of them stopped logging in but there wasn't a cliff's edge or anything yet - it's actually far exceeded my expectations. ![[image loading]](https://i.imgur.com/qG0Uez2.png) 5pm, 4 weeks after launch.. the realm that my friends refused to play on because it was "going to be dead". Edit: 3 hours later (8pm eu central) we literally have a queue on the login server before being able to select a realm. Based on the amount of realms and populations etc i'd say we're still looking at concurrent player counts peaking into the 7 figures and that classic still has more concurrents than BFA. Very few people expect it to stay that way in the long term (years) but clearly it can do it for 1 month and probably a good bit longer. | ||

Quite strange how a dueling tournament and molten core race is getting investors to stump up money xD | ||
