Classic Fresh - The Black Lotus Problem and a solution

WoW Classic WoW Classic General Discussion
1

The black lotus problem is insane. Prices are inflating like crazy. People are hording out of fear of lotus availability… We need a solution to this problem… I’d say your average persons gold farm is about 50g/hr… There is no reason someone should have to farm 6 hours worth of gold to obtain a single lotus for the sake of flasking… its insanity.

Please post possible solutions to this problem and hopefully blizzard will take a look at this.

My possible solutions are:

  1. Implement the SOD herbalism changes to Classic Fresh so that the supply is increased.
  2. Make flask buffs boonable (increasing the efficient use and decreasing overall demand)

i got a solution: don’t buy em :expressionless: they’re a luxury item

or petition blizzard to make more servers. one big megaserver is not how classic WoW is supposed to be played. if you insist on keeping one big megaserver, super expensive flasks are just what you’re gonna have to live with.

can you like shut up?

i swear to god you sit here ALL DAY AND ALL NIGHT just waiting for someone to post about black lotus on these forums.

you are the most pathetic person on this forum, its honestly laughable.

your desperation to stay relevant here is palpable, which is why you constantly comment stupid nonsense like this

you just don’t like the facts that I spew :expressionless:

They should just go the SoM route. Anniversary has dual specs so its already a radical departure from Era. Go the distance I say. Make it more distinguishable from Era and let it serve as a reminder for Blizz that they’ll never have to do “Fresh” again.

only if they add SoM difficulty to the raids :expressionless: fair is fair

That’s not a concern for me. I got what I wanted out of anniversary - proof that fresh servers are a bad idea.

I think that’d be fine. Adding a completely negligible “difficulty” adjustment that the vast majority of people wouldn’t even notice and wouldn’t need to account for in any capacity in exchange for cheaper flasks? I’m sure most people would be fine with that.

looool :expressionless: the forums will flood with tears. that i can assure you

fresh servers are a great idea, megasevers are bad.

if blizz was going to address megaservers they would have tho, so the only option imo is the som fix, and i also dont care about about an increased difficulty.

we will all agree to the negligible difficulty increase, and eyr will cook up a new reason fo why we dont deserve cheaper flasks.

Facts? Lol. Spew yes indeed you spew nonsense nonstop

In theory.

In practice its a mess.

15

well i mean all blizzard has to do is not add stupid crap like doll speck and forced megaservers :expressionless:

16

there is nothing wrong with dual spec, lmao what a weird hill for you to die on.

You have to take into account the substandard material they’re working with: the mass WoW player.

That’s why all “insults” about Era’s popularity or lack thereof fall way short.

Implement the SOD fix please and thank you

its only a mess because they never give us enough servers.

fresh servers are the best servers. they always are, and always will be. if there were enough servers to support the playerbase without needing to use layers, and each server was its own layer, classic fresh would be perfect.

this game was enver intended to be this populated and the server issues constantly prove this

I’m sure a few very vocal people would complain ad nauseum. People tend to get emotional about things that have no actual impact on them. For example, have you seen that guy that’s been on these forums still crying about dual spec existing? Pretty wild how people get so upset over trivial things.
