Uhm, I just recently played a Shaman to lvl 30 on a private server with normal experience gain and broken herbalism spawns (so constantly selfbuffing with potions wasn't really possible).
Btw: Alliance sucks, never again. These city layouts are just so bad...
What?! I know all the capitals like the back of my hand, so its never going to be an issue, but Ironforge is way better organized than Org. Undercity has the worst layout in the game.

Question about early leveling:
As mentioned i played an alliance Shaman to lvl ~30 on a TBC server and, I got just one question, could it be that Shaman is the WORST class to Level ever? Does it get better once you get to higher Levels? Because that was such a pain. I leveled a horde Mage on the same server to lvl ~16 just to "check" if it was me and that felt much better, sure you drink alot but that was the same with the shaman.
I had leveled just about every class during TBC do Level ~3X at least and to me it felt something like Hunter > Warlock/Rogue > Mage (no AE)/Priest > Warrior > Shaman (no comment on Pala/Druid because they changed pretty hard from classic to TBC?).
I was actually interested in rolling Shaman and i know that leveling doesn't really matter in the long run, but it just felt so horrible ^^ (and a friend decided to go Shaman).
Btw: Alliance sucks, never again. These city layouts are just so bad... I cannot tell you how leveling speed compares to other classes, it has been too long for me to compare. What I can say is, as soon as you unlock Dual Wield, Shaman kills way faster with Windfury. I remember loving my big two hander, one-shoting mobs from time to time. But switching to Dual Wield was a real eye-opener. I don't know at what level you can reach the talent though, I think it was a 21 or 31 points, so lvl30 or lvl40. So yeah, the first 30 levels might be slow.
Shaman doesn't have dual wield in classic, that's a TBC talent.

if i were to try this out, i'll probably stick with an aus server since it was something we never had access to up until wotlk.

Booo to that GTR, but understandable. Once release gets closer, I'll coordinate something, what is the server setup for classic? I assume there'll be far fewer to choose from?

Ironforge was ok, Stormwind is just horrible. Undercity is, aside from the waaay too long entrance, not bad at all, if you fly in (which you will do 99% of the time) i don't see an issue with it.
I was Draenei.... The Exodar is the worst city ever, it manages to combine everything bad about Org/UC and has the worst flightpath location possible.

Hello everyone! I've played the original game plus a bit of TBC up until 2007. I've done some reading and I saw that those with active subscription can play classic. Will I be able to play if I subscribe with my account, or do I still need to buy the latest expansion? Thanks in advance!

You will be able to play with a subscription, they make the old expansions free anyway the only one u have to pay for as of now is Battle for Azeroth so as long as you have a wow account with an active subscription you will be good to go.

I keep seeing people on the wow forums talking about an upgrade to the classic animations ever so slightly. Yet, when I watch streamers play classic beta I don't notice any of these upgrades.
BS or or real?

The standard graphics slider for classic settings is like a 6 or 7 on the 1-10 slider. You can slide it up to a 10.
I dont think any animations were updated as that requires blizzard changing the animations. The graphics can be higher quality though.

Ah, ok. I think maybe I missunderstood them. Thanks.

Well, I'd be up for an European TL guild if we find enough people. I used to play mage in classic and bc. Raidet both until 4 or 5 bosses in naxx (then expansion came), and end sunwell in bc with a lot of server and faction firsts (then guild broke up and real life catched up).
I wont be able (and willing) to grind as hardcore as I did back then, but I do plan raiding and pvping quite a lot.

You can also use modern models and animations too, as a graphical option.
Regarding playing on servers out of region, its really not a bad experience in classic. With spell batching at like 400ms, having 100-200ms ping doesn't feel bad at all.

I will have to double check, I didnt think you could use the modern stuff. I must have completely missed it.

I'd find that ironic because I thought I read somewhere they disabled the ability to use the old models during Legion?

Of this, I am quite certain they disabled it before legion. I remember just before I went hiatus at the end of MOP we could choose which model to use. By the time I came back, there was no such choice.

Blizz just announced that they've heard the community and will be making seperate language servers for English, German, French and Russian. I know that pushing many languages onto one server was an issue for lots of people so it's nice to hear that it will be split up more appropriately.
I was a little worried about newer players (that don't know how to dig through forums) ending up on a server which is "unofficially" ran by a language that they don't speak and not getting a good experience because of that.

Wouldn't it be nice to have both kinds of servers? I do enjoy playing with folks from around the world including chinese etc^^ i think both can be good
