Classic hasn’t run it’s course so asking for TBC early is just nonsensical, it’s simply not something anyone will consider (of course it will happen after Naxx though). It’s too late to fix the honor system, if that was going to happen they would have thought it out before launch. MCP is a pretty innocuous item that lets Ferals parse, so letting them farm more of them than the current instance limit or giving it something like 10 charges fixes this niche problem.
Yes. That is druid class design in vanilla. Had MCP been getting abused as much in Vanilla as it does in classic, it would have been hot fixed probably. Not even patched, just hotfixed and ended right then and there.

I actually agree with you. And honestly, that would be better. Just flat out nerf it so we wouldn’t even have to have these debates. But they could have done that months ago. They could have done that back in October. Why let someone play a class for an entire year then make it harder for them to get the one item in the game that makes a certain playstyle possible?
So people like changes when it nerfs the only hybrid that doesn’t need to be a healbot 80% to be worthwhile in raids, got it
Its the pre-Classic optimization memes all over again only with supporting instead of bashing changes
I think it’s more that the MCP thing, while it would have been nerfed back then, it did technically exist and it’s not really hurting anybody, so they don’t care. As long as something isn’t a problem, Blizzard generally doesn’t touch it.
The change wasn’t made to target the MCP farming, that’s just a side effect. Think about AV premades. We did that in Vanilla too by sync queuing. That also made it to classic. But it wasnt until people started making massive amounts of complain threads that Blizzard addressed it. If people had kept silent, it probably would still be in the game. Same with MCP. If people keep posting about it, it will probably end up nerfed, because that’s the only consistent action they could take when addressing it. If they keep quiet, Blizzard will leave it alone.

My reply was more about the OPs suggestion to make it unique. I understand that players are exploiting the heck out of the game now.
I can’t believe that these changes affect more than a few hundred players total. I personally think that, if they’re all in for feral druid, and this change is too much to bear, they should just quit and let Blizz know why.
Just up the drop rate to like 95%, there’s no worse feeling than going 0/5 in an hour lockout.

You don’t spend that much time there lol. It takes maybe 20 mins to hit the 5 per hour lockout.
You’re close, they don’t delete their character, blizzard does.
It’s quite sad really, I feel bad for them 
Agreed.

You don’t need talents do you? Do you need the extra dps? Aren’t you fine playing without them?
Druids TANKING need MCP the same way everyone needs talents. Dumb a s s post

Why should druids be restricted from what was possible in Vanilla?
No changes. This is a feature of Classic.

Sorry not sorry your not really on a pvp server. I don’t need to wave my epeen around for everyone to think I’m a chad. The neckbeard must be strong with you since you complain about alliance cc’ing the ony buff npc. But I guess neckbeards are just neckbeards and show their true colors when it really matters.
For a peasant, you sure are running your mouth a lot
how about instead of wanting to be a speclal snowflake with ur meme spec, u play a rogue instead? nobody is forcing u to play a feral druid, this is on u cuz u chose to be selfish by playing a meme spec instead of actually being useful.
literally every top player that i personally know is actually very successful in real life but just so happens to be competitive in video games as well, being motivated in a video game does stem from your drive in real life as well…someone that’s a lazy ‘‘neckbeard’’ as you are describing, will likely perform very poorly in video games to due to not having that mind set on being the best.

If you really believe that, why don’t you go play retail WoW? After all, it has fifteen years of developers making changes to protect the players from themselves, sounds like your wonderland.
You almost are making a good point- it’s very true that people often do things in excess in ways that are bad for themselves.
But implying that Blizz, one of the most abusive companies in the world, cares in the slightest for the well being of its players is one of the most hilarious things you could possibly say.
This is the company that put RMT into Diablo 3 out of greed, and intentionally made the game exponentially more grindy than it should have been solely to make it so unenjoyable that we’d give them money to make it more fun. The moment they took RMT out- they boosted drop rates because they’d made a problem intentionally to try to squeeze money out of us.
In Destiny 2, on top of the stuff they did with dyes they put reverse bad luck protection on gear- making drop rates consistently get worse the longer you played because by then you’d be hooked/invested in the game, and the worse they got the more likely you’d be to start giving them money.
OW took the lootbox culture to new heights. WCIII Refunded was promoted with lies such as remade cutscenes with far better audio and video that followed the action- even showing it off, before deciding simply not to put it in out of laziness.
So yes, to a degree players don’t always do what’s best for themselves. But anyone that thinks Blizz has any intent of doing what’s best for players is the most delusional person in the world.
And frankly, as long as this 18+ hour/day, 3-4 months straight rank 14 grind is in game the suggestion that they made this change to dungeons to protect players from themselves is completely ignorant of Classic WoW itself.
Heartseeker trash doesn’t get to speak lolol
