Hello, I wanted to comment on the survey I saw going around about Classic Plus an what I feel are the best changes for Classic Plus as a long time Classic enjoyer and role model.
War mode: PVP and PVE servers are just out-dated tech and should be replaced with war mode like retail did
No-transmog: Transmog is probably the worst change that could ever happen to the game. Even WilliE says so and he’s an even bigger role model than I am
Ban world buffs in raids: Use TBC style buff and consume system
Reduce consume stacking: Use TBC style buff and consume system
Ban GDKP: Obviously
Ban boosting: Obviously
Add 1v1 duel arena: As a warlock main I support this feature.
Redesign honor system: Allow purchase of ranking gear with honor and have different ranking gear tiers for each phase of the game
Adjust class talents
Rebalance classes
No new races or race and class combinations. We are fine like it is
Only 40 man raids for main raids. 10 man or 20 man ok for smaller raids like ZG or AQ ruins
No new classes please
Make profession gear matter and be as good or slightly worse than gear from raids
Keep paladin and shaman segregated to their factions
No new models or textures. We like Classic like it is. If you touch undead models I’m deleting WOW and never touching it again
Add some professions to improve gear with gems etc. Kinda like honing from Lost Ark. Gotta give swipers something to do since GDKP is banned
C+ should basically be retail in the classic world. It would have tons of players and generate a lot of money for blizzard. Allowing them to keep the servers alive and constantly work on them for years. Population of retail shows it’s by far the more popular game. If even 1/5th of the playerbase from retail came over it would be more than all the classic servers combined.
I am afraid I have to disagree. We would need to keep gdkp to keep people raiding older raids. I would advocate more for a system where some items such as 100% drops, mounts, legos, some trinkets and the like can be put to bit.
If we are doing tbc prepatch based classic plus we probably need all that tbc brings. As for the honor system I would just do the following: Have a quest each day for winning each battleground for three bg marks in addition to win. And have it be able to buy something worthwhile with marks.
Flex raiding is very different than taking 20 people to a 40-man designed raid zone. Again, forcing everyone into YOUR preferred play-style is myopic and short-sighted.
