will arena boosting be as out of control in wotlk classic as it is now on retail?
I thought most people played to funnel loot to their favorite streamer or buy stuff that they couldnât qualify for back in the day soâŚmaybe? Probably? The appeal of classic kind of falls off as they get into expansions where 99% of the content is available on live.
At least with vanilla-era classic the zones and leveling had been removed with the Cata shattering there was something ânewâ for a decent chunk of people to see or revisit.
iâve already started a wrath boosting business
we have ab 1m pre orders already
im expecting to retire by next year
Umm it happens in tbc but itâs not as frequent as retail because barely anyone does arena (at least on tbc, wrath will surely be more popular) but wrath doesnât have the awful retail upgrade system so prolly not
Perhaps my mind is failing me but I couldâve sworn wotlk had gear gated behind rating as well as elite weaponry.
Where have I heard this before?
More popular than tbc for sure. Tbc is extremely boring, all there is to do is raid log. Nobody even seriously qs arena until end of season.
And you expect wotlk to be any different why?
Because more than just 6 specs are viable in arena and they are adding some form of m+ or challenge mode to the dungeons.
itâs not shadowlands?
Yeah youâre right mb

omg no frickin way they are locking gear behind rating again⌠some people never learn
already out of control in classic right now why would it be different?
Oh I see what you are trying to do
|á´Ľâ˘ĘăŁ
Yup I remember seeing people in full gear as a teen and being like damn this dude is good lol.
At the same time I used to blame the gear difference all the time. Oh he has pvp shoulders and I donât wa wa wa
Boosting will be harder because making alts is actually A SUPER insane grind, so you need to do it on your main.
Dozer making sure he can get boosted before he starts playing classic wotlk i see
i mean isnt that sort of what you do now? âoh he has duelist gear.â wa wa wa. Just saying.

Oh he has pvp shoulders and I donât
The visual aspect was kind of neat in the pre-mog era.

i mean isnt that sort of what you do now? âoh he has duelist gear.â
Nope.

will arena boosting be as out of control in wotlk classic as it is now on retail?
Yes because like SL there are rating Req on gear (elite set / weapons)
There are normal set and weapons but you know what people will do, they will break out the CC get some gold, and buy a boost. Itâs what people always do, because path of least resistance is the most common practice.
