Thottbot had an armory that we used back in the day. Not sure if this was posted, but yes there was a feature to check people without doing it in-person.

Itâs NOT really a re-creation of Vanilla, it has a lot of likeness but there are a lot of differences
its funny to see the only people with negative comments about having an armory are the nerds with max level retail characters because they actually play that horrible game.
youâve been judged.
Itâs not a re-creation at all. There are a lot of things that arenât the same. Itâs just a âClassicâ version.
Ironforge.pro is the closest to an armory we have atm.
I agree to an extent. Lol at thottbot posts âsoloed X Boss as level 40 lockâ. âLiarâ
That being said, information wasnât as accessible and you had to sift through websites to get it. You also had to understand what you were looking at. Thus, a lot of people - i.e. people not bothering to progression raid, didnât know. But a good place to look was actually class forums. That in itself held a good amount of information.
I mean, thatâs not at all true but⌠ok.
Thottbot was pretty accurate after beta. Allakhazam was basically wowhead and there were guides and BIS lists stickied on every class forum, I wrote a few of them. The information has always been there, itâs just a little easier to access these days.
I really dont care what anyone says here, but I just got two shoted by this shaman in level 39 bgs, and it looked like he was carrying that legendary axe, but i guess weâll never know. His name is Xeqtr tho
Armory is not apart of the game it was a tool used from outside the game to make inspecting people easier, there is no reason why they couldnât add it, it would not effect the gameplay at all.
It does change things. As it stands, if I want to inspect you I have to meet you in game and interact with you, and quite likely have a conversation if youâre applying to a raid. Just another social interaction.
If we have an armory: I donât need to meet you in game, I donât need to speak to you at all. Just another anonymous interaction.
If you want faceless, anonymous game play, play retail, join your queue, get raider ioâd and have fun with all that.
Armory was in Vanilla. In order to access it you must travel to scarlet monastery

Speak for yourself, it means I can speak with someone over discord when theyâre on break at work or just unable to be on at that moment, if having armory removes all the social interaction for you then that is squarely a YOU problem
Even tho this thread is 90000000 ages old, I like you.

Nearly a 1 month Necro, just to name and shame.
Sounds like a YOU problem though doesnât it.
We have no armory and I donât have a problem.
So youâre admitting your previous stance of how itâd âkill social interactionâ was complete BS? Good, glad we could come to an agreement on that point.
No, Iâm not agreeing with it. Classic forces social interaction by restricting the API.
Just because you, mr discord, might speak to your dudebros in discord, doesnât mean everyone else wonât use classicIO to auto armory if it existed.
So have fun doing things the old fashioned way.
