Balancing releases

Hi blizzard I would like to make a suggestion for furture releases of classic. Maybe next time a vanilla version of the game is to be released you guys give it a bit of balancing. I dont want different abilities like SoD, just some actual class balance so it isnt just a smear of turd brown everywhere.

This is a great idea for a Seasonal server - Season of Balancing.
Two reasons more: Who’s to decide which changes to make? Your wanted changes would probably be something I did not like, and same the other way around.
And … do you trust Blizz to do these changes right? I don’t.

You can tell this post was given zero actual thought.

How exactly do you balance classes in classic without introducing or changing abilities?

Oh okay, lets just increase boomkins two spells by 500%. Awesome, now they 1 shot everything in PvP.

Lets just nerf warriors by 50%… Awesome, now they cant hold threat, there are no tanks, and the mages and healers are getting 1 shot by the boss.

Lets just increase shadow priest DPS by 200%, awesome and they are still OOM with boss being at 50% HP.

Loser thoughts w/ loser ideas.

Not on me to balance the game its on blizzard, also those are all your as you so kindly said ā€œloser thoughts w/loser ideasā€

What you mean? Youre the one with the brilliant idea of ā€œbalance the game without introducing new spellsā€

Do you know why warriors are so strong? Sure its world buffs… but they have ummm lets see… Recklessness AND deathwish. They have things called COOLDOWNS they can use to improve their DPS.

Do you know what many other classes dont have? COOLDOWNS.

So you want to improve classes dps, without adding new abilities… so they wont have COOLDOWNS… but still want their DPS increased… so you want flat damage buffs for all their abilities…

This is why classic+ will be an absolute nightmare and will suck. Because dummies like you will want full balancing without editing, adding, or removing a single spell and expect that to A. somehow work and B. for the game to somehow still make sense and play the same way.

Wow its nice to speak with such a nice member of the classic community. You guys are so welcoming and thoughtful ,full of such love and respect. Really what a wonderful person you are, so smart and kind. Truly i can not imagine a better person to speak with.

I did you a favor and introduced something called ā€œthoughtā€ into your head… however mean it may be.

Hopefully now youll think for once and go ā€œyanno what… that guy was rude but he has a point… maybe it is far more difficult to balance the game than simply tweaking a few numbers here and there. Perhaps elemental shaman does need a few additions for it to be viable without completely breaking PvPā€¦ā€

And your next post will have far better ideas than ā€œBalance the entire game without adding any spellsā€

Thank you, I am amazed by how intelligent and throught provoking you have been. Truly it seems you have a vast knowledge of WoW class and encounter design. I for one hope blizzard see your extremely kind and respectfull post and hire you to make sure classic plus is a success. Again thank you so much for being so welcoming and doing me such a favor. You are a very generous and thoughtful person :heart:.

My really big problem here is that I do not trust Blizz to do this without ruining the game seven ways :frowning:

They couldn’t pay me to live in Irvine California.

Id rather jam an ice pick into my forehead then pay taxes to the State of California.

No matter what they do people will be upset, cant make everyone happy I would rather they try.

Wow what a thoughtful and wise response. I too would not want to live in California. Again thank you for such wise and intelligent words :pray:

Again, for a seasonal, yes. For Classic, no thanks.

Just use TBC as a core for ā€˜Classic+’ changes and go from there.

Trying to make the original doofy Level 60 Vanilla WoW core for Classic+ isn’t going to work at all. Using TBC as the core for C+ may not work well either, but it sure isnt gonna be the Level 60 WoW experience that <1000 people bother to play consistently on the 20+ Classic servers.

we got your point in the first reply. why do you feel you have to continue to bash ppl. you are not incorrect with your replies but calm down and you said it all in the first reply.

go back and read your posts. it may shock you

Im just going on the assumption that 4 or 5 years or whatever down the road they will once again release a classic progression server might be cool to play through that when actual balancing. Dont wanna change era or anniversary leave em alone but future releases

Its incredibly annoying to read posts by people who honestly think they have this incredible idea nobody has thought of before… but haven’t taken a second to actually think it through, and what it would mean if attempted and done.

its a plague on society that needs to be stratholme’d asap

Future releases of Classic should still be Classic. Your ideas are good for either seasonal servers or Classic+ … and yes I’ve said it before :wink:

haha it was just a post and idea. OP idea i didnt like either but well

Personally I hope C+ is a major hit and they don’t need to keep re, re, releasing classic…

With that said it would be interesting to see what it would look like with a pally taunt and Warrior/Rogue brought back closer to the pack

They should be going the other way… bringing every class up to warrior / rogue… not bringing warrior / rogue down.

If they bring warrior / rogue down and leave Ele, enchance, ret, shadow, boomkin, how they are… Good luck with that crapfest of a game LOL
