You’re the one who made an assumption without knowledge that ultimately never mattered to the conversation.

LMAO personal? Not a chance.

Can’t hear you over your QQ I quit posting.

hardcore players for might of stormwind! we want ally rend!

Personally, the classic era community seems so divided on these changes that I believe the best course of action is to undo the changes.

I was online and in Stormwind for a short period while the changes were live, and the frequency of world buffs dropping left me feeling like I was accidently logged into Season of Discovery. While they are good quality of life improvements, they absolutely do not meet the criteria of retaining the Classic environment. I’m really hoping they undo the guild UI too, because I prefer the old UI and again, why are we updating UI to match retail wow in classic era?

Keep Classic Era as is, and do whatever you want to SoD.

Its a safe assumption because you want to counter me on a topic Im in opposition of and you didnt preface it with “oh by the way I really dont care about WBs/rend” - which would just make you look silly.

Your angle here is character assassination, by way of making me out to be a crybaby, which is just as intellectually dishonest since you have nothing to prove it other than your assumed opinion (the irony) and I explained how that’s not the case.

My post history is an open book. Go ahead and find one quote from me where I said the changes were bad “because I have a life to live” and/or how my childhood dreams of a less QoL friendly Classic Era were dashed by devs who hate me. I didnt author any cringey emo poems either.

You dont care about WBs (rend) but you still wanna go all ad hominem on me about my legitimate stance on Era changes and my willingness to drop this game if they make changes I dont want to see.

So what is it? You’re just bored and got nothing better to do?

If you dont care about rend buffs then you got nothing to call me out on.

Call it whatever you want. It worked.

that is a very slippery slope if ever i saw one

do you just want each side to outdo each other until one goes so extreme the other backs down? because that is what you seem to be promoting

Not at all. If you wanna argue about it, then lets have that debate. You’ll lose but Im still game.

If you wanna take personal shots at me then Im going to respond in kind and I dont pull any punches.

Classic Era is far beyond the designed lifespan. Non-repeatable quests with buff drops were intended for well-populated servers in a time where new players were constantly rolling in. While “No changes” is a great mantra for so many things, nurturing the server with more buff opportunity is going to keep it healthy.

As a horde player, it’s ridiculous that allies can even be mind controlled to obtain a horde-only buff, which is valid on WCL… making it mandatory to obtain for serious raiding. Ally faction truly deserves their own WCB.

We want repeatable quests or scheduled buff drop times like China. This game has another 10+ years if we balance out the stick to carrot ratio.

I hate sitting around for hours every week to get rend, it’s absolutely the worst part of my week. Bring back MoS it was the best thing that ever happened to era

Ignore the trolls that are saying we are wrong for wanting a QoL. I respect peoples opinions that prefer to not have it. While I disagree and prefer having this QoL anyone who thinks their sole opinion is the only correct one is ignorant.

What is funny is their hypocrisy stating it breaks the intent and feel of vanilla. The intent of vanilla was to move to TBC. Just being in Classic Era at all is against #nochange.

The amount of replies on both sides shows we need fresh seasonal no changes servers. And for those of us that love Classic Era give us QoL changes without effecting game play mechanics.

(Though I would love to see Mythic difficulty levels added to Classic Era)

Alliance is also providing feedback right now and ours isn’t valid for some reason?

I mentioned it in another thread but I think now would be the best time for Blizzard to give us Era on it’s own client, fresh servers with all the changes reverted they’ve made. No boon, no BG change, etc and then do what they want with this. If they want to put Stormrend back in, go for it. But we’ve been wanting fresh for awhile, and we’ve wanted a client to avoid this nonsense ever happening. I think now would be a great time to give everyone a win.

(I’m sure you’ve answered it before but in a thread of over 1000 replies its not practical to look instead of just ask)

i suppose my main question is why is this the straw that broke the camels back? We’ve seen near a half dozen changes that have effected the authenticity of classic, why is this the one that breaks it and make it quit worthy?

Sorry was pulled into a dungeon

The community polls seem to disagree heavily with that first sentence.

we are paying a sub for them to fix bugs and problems with the original game

The valid argument is that there are about 10-15 alliance guilds who raid Naxx on a regular basis. The majority of those guilds require Rend for the melee. If you dont show up prepared with the proper buffs, then you won’t get rostered to raid.

So we will get Rend regardless if it is in Stormwind or in the Barrens. And there is really no reason to make us subscribe on two accounts to mind control ourselves in the Barrens for a chance of getting rend. Try doing that multiple times a week for a year plus of raiding Naxx. It burns people out.

It is not a coincidence that the server population went up with MoS. People stop playing when the game is no longer fun. And there is nothing fun about paying for two subs and trying to hide in a corner in the Barrens while horde try to track you down and grief you.

bottom line, more people are speaking out about wanting stormrend, than those that want #nochange hypocrites,

over 1100 replies on this thread vs 380 from the implementation last week. kinda weird how that works

Majority wants stormrend back, though i would be fine if they just brought stormrend to Hardcore

Give a vote out on who wants the genders male and female on creation screen vs “body type 1” “body type 2” explain how that is an improvement to the game and not a politically paid for statement

Actually you’re paying for retail, this is included as a bonus as they’ve stated. Your $15 is paying them to fix their cash cow first and then give us the scraps.
