These days people min-max for honor & reputation per hour so you don't have the 10 hour games anymore. A premade can win in about 6 minutes by bypassing most of the NPCs / choke-points. Yeah, that was a bizzare experience for me, I assumed that was like a quirk in Modern WoW (Wrath up to BFA). I didn't think that would work in Classic.

I mean, players that used to enjoy and spend nights on classic won't have that time anymore. Work, kids... So I really don't know what to expect from the new community that will rise from classic, but it will be something interesting for sure. To me, I am excited for Classic, but one thing I might hate, is that I think Classic is going to feel unrewarding for me at level 60, because of the low loot per person and the itemization of equipment. So I might just be a tourist for a while. | ||

Doing classic Scholo, DM, Strat or any pre-raid dungeon felt so epic. Gather ur party, journey to the instance, go DEEP in the dungeon and hope the group doesn’t disband. And MAYBE you’ll get that Elemental Hood you’ve been wanting forever that’s from an optional boss in the basement of Scholo T_T | ||

Ion very recently, in a German interview, repeated the 'summer 2019' time frame, so it can't be off too long. Staggered content release sounds like a pretty good idea to me: Phase 1 (Classic Launch) Molten Core Onyxia Maraudon Phase 2 Dire Maul Azuregos Kazzak Phase 3 Blackwing Lair Darkmoon Faire Darkmoon deck drops begin Phase 4 Zul’Gurub Green Dragons Phase 5 Ahn’Qiraj War Effort begins Ahn’Qiraj raids open when the war effort dictates Dungeon loot reconfiguration: Tier 0.5 Dungeon gear, Relics, drop rates and location changes Phase 6 Naxxramas Scourge Invasion | ||

The Classic WoW Demo at Blizzcon demonstrated a need for a beta.

In the third phase, we’ll introduce the first Battlegrounds: Alterac Valley (version 1.12) and Warsong Gulch, alongside with their associated vendors. One thing to note is that there were a couple of updates to these vendors over the course of the original patch releases, so some items won’t be available right away. For example, the Spell Penetration trinkets available from the Warsong Gulch vendor weren’t introduced until Patch 1.9, so we’re currently thinking that we’ll add these in phase 5. | ||

Private servers that tried to recreate the old version of AV soon found that the players still ignored objectives and rushed the bosses after just a week or so. | ||

I think the most interesting period will be Phase 2 where there won't be any bgs but the honor system will already be in place. Maybe they have to introduce WSG in Phase 2 too, because I can already see groups of rankers just ganking high level zones for honor points. I mean why wouldn't they? People want to farm in high level zones, and in a busy server, you can get hundreds of HKs in these zones. | ||

That's my 60 endgame, i don't go into bgs or raids cause i'm just looking for wpvp so i go kill mobs gather stuff and hunt for players in high level zones^^ regardless of patch. Of course I do the same while leveling, too, don't rush leveling, get stronger and hunt for players. it can happen that a place gets too crowded, however having a good population ready to pvp or get pvp'ed is what makes the game for me. (I don't really want to go in instances in MMO) | ||

You didn't find normal pvp'ers there. You did find a few raiders, like me, that needed runes that called for support and suddenly you had an open world pvp war between 2 pve guilds :D. Good times. I never pvp'd around tm or other famous spots, but boy if i needed something and some ally was "stealing" my mobs.. It was on  .That i was shadowpriest and my best mate WL also made this very enjoyable. | ||
