"Climbing" – Idea for Classic Plus

Hey everyone! I’m bringing an idea for Classic Plus that I hope reaches the ears of the Blizzard devs.

One of the things that makes Classic so special is the ability to explore every corner of the map, even the most remote and unexpected places. That gives us a real sense of immersion and makes the world feel alive. To boost that feeling even more, I suggest that in Classic Plus our characters should be able to climb anything that makes sense: buildings, trees, mountains, etc.

This could be something natural for all characters, or it could be learned through training. In my opinion, this would also allow full map exploration without needing flying mounts, which kind of break the immersion by turning your character into a demigod who can fly anywhere at any time.

That’s it for now! Greetings!

Pantheon has that - just sayin.

Honestly, I’d be happy if they just brought back the vanilla style sticky jump before they “nerfed it” to what it is now. You can still pull it off, but consecutive jumps were so much easier.

I got really good at it back in the day and was able to explore AQ40’s terrain prior to it’s actual release, which was kinda fun!

Anyway, an actual climbing gameplay mechanic seems like it’s more suited to a future retail expansion. Haha I can see the raid boss design now…!
