BFD a step in the wrong direction

Let me begin by acknowledging i am not the greatest player in wow, No im not some top teir sweat lord and thats ok. I am simply a average player trying to have fun not find my self worth from a video game.

With that said the difficulty of BFD is a step in the wrong direction. Now I have played classic since it launched and cleared all the raids including Molten Core so i know what im talking about.

This is classic not the crap retail has turned into where every fight is Dance Dance Revolution on a keyboard. Turning classic into this is the wrong move. Classic is about the journey and the discovery not how fast my reaction time is!

Im willing to bet money the clear rate for BFD is super low, and if blizzard continues down this path of making classic way to difficult for the average wow player then SOD will dry up faster than retail does each xpac.

Anyway i just hope blizzard changes course and makes the raids doable by the vast majority and not just people that find their only self worth from a video game until then im done playing this disaster of a experience that is SOD.

if you think BFD is too difficult there is no way you are an average player, hopefully trolling, to not have the “reaction times” for this raid u would need to be 130 years old

Definitely a troll, BFD is easier than some dungeons. Just because you have to actually do something besides stand there and hit the boss doesn’t mean it’s difficult

Maybe its just me but I can’t tell anymore if posts like this are trolling.

There is really no reason to be toxic and elitist. I and my group and many i have talked with find the raid too difficult and it has ruined this whole experience for many of us.

I know its hard to understand but not everyone bases their self worth on doing difficult raids in wow most of us just want to have fun.

Are these difficult raids in the room with us right now?

Yes you are. You have done nothing but call me names and belittle me because im not good enough to clear a raid. That is the very definition of being toxic and elitist. If you disagree with my opinion on the direction of SOD and it being overly difficult im sure you can express your opinion in a manner that doesnt belittle others.

I’m way worse than average and I still managed 7/7 on BFD my first try.

Watch a couple videos, buy some consumes.

This is just a throw away alt i dont need the toxic elitist on the forum stalking me in game or the guild i play with. I simply wanted to give blizzard my opinion on the direction of classic.

that person did none of that, you just made that up completely, as expected it is a troll thread

While I dislike making this sort of assumption, since WoW has such a large and diverse community and it is sometimes difficult to discern whether someone is trolling or not. I tend to try to consider that things are coming from a place of sincerity.

This is an interesting one though, “all the raids” including the entry level one? Is Molten Core even easier than BFD? It probably will be with our way overpowered rune juiced toons, but I’d be curious if anyone’s actually struggling with clearing BFD and what the hangups are.

There’s Ghamoo’ra and Sera’kiss…I guess Lorgus Jett kind of counts? But for him you do still need to at least switch to lightning shield totem

The other bosses I can’t think of anything that doesn’t need at least one role to deal with

If you can’t clear BFD, there’s no way you cleared Molten Core. You are full of it. If you can’t beat Kelris, you can’t beat Major Domo.

My 65 year old pops who hasn’t raided since Vanilla WoW 20 years ago can green parse in the raid and has cleared 7/7. Stop making excuses.

What does your pops have to do with my group? What excuse did i make i simply stated i dont agree with the direction and the overall increase in difficulty for classic wow. Go back to retail you can play dance dance revolution all you want

You go back to Retail and play LFR if you can’t do a single mechanic. Lol.

Lol. I can’t even, lol. You are the one whining.
