All the good PvErs are raiding Mythic on retail. All of this decade+ old content isn’t hard in any way. I was doing cata heroic raids in literally 10th grade.
- Cataclysm is the most active version of Classic currently, so if it’s dead then the other versions are rotting
- People largely look back fondly on Pandaria, because they actually grew out of their “lol kungfu panda” phase, not only recognizing how rich the lore of Pandaren is, but also, “wait, kungfu panda was actually good why are we mocking it?”
- Of course we’re going to continue on to Warlords, even if it’s a less popular expansion they have literally no reason to stop Classic until it stops making money, and rereleasing old content is pretty cheap compared to developing new stuff

im curious what the goal of your post is, what are you looking to achieve out of just hating on classic game modes.

Is that why you’re hiding?

If Cata is on life support and we shouldn’t continue… then the entire classic project should be canceled including SoD, Era, HC, and Anniversary which all have even fewer players.
People didn’t dislike it. They disliked LFR, Dragon Soul lasting for like 40 weeks, and the Deathwing encounter on the tail end. They also disliked how hard the heroiocs were on the front end… and can’t forget the dislike the old world update gets.

Having lots of fun in Cata, and the community is the chummiest yet in classic. Also looking forward to MoP (was survival hunter as fun in bgs as I remember it?).

For us casuals it’s just fine.

poo posting on this alt for separate reasons
i know you have some kind of ego because of “muh classic parses” but its a literal fact my man that there’s absolutely 0 clout in trying to say or flex that 15 year old known/solved content takes any skill whatsoever or call people out for not raiding on it, regardless if I actively raid this anymore or not.
That’s because they made all these different version of WoW. They have Era, Anniversary, Hardcore, SoD, and Cata. They didn’t have most of this during Wrath Classic.
You also need to remember that a lot of people raid log. They rush through the new content as fast as they can, and then unsub after a few weeks of raiding.
I bet you that as soon as MoP Classic comes out, all those locked servers are going to be completely full. And once MoP’s been out for a few months, those numbers will start to fizzle out again.
You don’t actively raid it and you never have.
Literally everything is solved content, it shows you have never done anything in this game.
I have cutting edges, even getting those by the time the people who are getting those do the content all the strategies are already out there.
The only thing you can say is if you’re a world first raider and you do it all week one on its launch… and considering cataclysm is too hard for you I don’t think you’re a world first raider.
You have like three to four months per raid tier to get cutting edge.
You’re telling me if you do it on month 2 the content isn’t already solved?
You literally have zero idea what you’re saying which is exactly why you’re posting on that rat.
You didn’t do the content now and you couldn’t do it back then
Solved content is not the same thing as you being able to execute the mechanics.

Exactly. I was waiting for someone to say that. When I was raiding as a casual player in retail I went to elitist jerks or wowhead and all that brand new content was completely solved with detailed directions for everything a couple weeks after launch.

He thinks just because it’s solved it’s easy to execute, if that was true mythic wouldn’t have such low clear rates.
Getting cutting edge is an accomplishment but that doesn’t mean the content isn’t already solved you have the full raid tier to get it.
Unless you literally get it week one by the time 99% of the people who are going to get cutting edge that raid tier get it it’s already solved.
Solved doesn’t mean you’re going to execute the fights, it’s why most of those bosses take over a hundred wipes and some of them take upwards of 400 wipes

It’s wild tbh. I like my guildies. My guildies are better than the average. The mage in my raid team had to put me on follow for alysrazor every week because otherwise he’d miss the circles and lose his buff.
The average wow player is so bad they can’t kill pre-nerf Vashj. Forget trying to kill pre-30% heroic 25 LK, forget cata heroics raids. They can’t do pre-nerf T5.
And then people wanna talk about “solved content” like we didn’t all read the exact same guides a week into the tier.
Most CE players aren’t even doing week 1 mythic. How many CE guilds are doing normal prog for a week, heroic prog for 2-3 weeks, and then mythic prog until basically the end of the tier? The content was solved for weeks.
Doesn’t make it easy. Or in my case it just makes it very boring when I’m over here optimizing my cd usage while someone else is learning the fight mechanics still on pull 6.

You said that like raiding in retail matter either. Retail is also playing known and solved content.

Ego was definitely bruised here. No sh everything is “solved” content as they have guides and videos from the PTR. But there is a MASSIVE difference between something that has been out for over 15 years, already raided to death when it was current content AND on private servers this entire time bud.
I guess since it’s solved and known already, I imagine you’re going to get a top world kill when mythic undermine launches shortly? Right? It’s solved, easy, known content right?
Classic - WOTLK mechanics are a joke, even for the hardest difficulties and bosses. Picks up slightly in Cata and definitely more in MoP, but compared to Mythic raids from the last few expansions on retail those are literal cake walks.
Cata classic kids are huffing some serious copium thinking their raids are anywhere near the execution required of retail mythic raiding. It’s actually insane. But I guess DragonSoul would be equivalently difficult to Undermine for people who are washed up stuck on 15 year old expacs having egos about parses on there.

I didn’t say it was easy that was you…
Shouldn’t you be the one getting world first?
You brought up being solved I just pointed out how stupid it was.

Lol he thinks more than like 80 people were raiding heroic DS on meme servers
You just proved his point for him btw, the content being solved doesn’t change its difficulty, gj!
The comparison to retail doesn’t matter because you can’t do either.
No one ever said this, you made this up.
Sorry you didn’t get invited to raid in Cata but that doesn’t mean its dead

Please explain how there’s any skill or difficulty in playing a 15 year old raid? There isn’t one. The mechanics from classic - cata are not that difficult. Starts picking up in cata as I said but it’s nowhere near “solved retail content” no matter how hard you cope and make it try to be.
Sure log on your character and I’ll post your logs, you can literally be the evidence we need.
You’re the one who claimed it’s all solved… All I said was all content is solved unless you’re a world first raider, but solved content doesn’t mean it’s easy to execute.
Like you’re literally hiding for a reason you didn’t do any of the content.
If you posted on your character we would all immediately look you up and see that you weren’t good enough to clear this solved content… You think we don’t know why you’re hiding?

If you were invited to one you would know. If its so easy you should just post on main so we can see how good you are.
You keep making this up, are you okay? Are you having a crisis?
