I find it funny people are really that out of touch who think Dual Spec was a bad thing in WoWs history. Even the “no change” crowd already failed on the no change rants since Blizzard already changed classic and now tbc.
People who say dual spec won’t help anything are the equivalent to people who say Vitamin C won’t do anything for your immune system.
It took Blizzard 10 years to fubar WoW, it took the classic community 3 months to fubar classic WoW and TBCC is following the same route. The amount of ignorance that floats around here from people who play WoW is just…no wonder people are flocking to other MMORPGs.
Yea, it’s too bad that Classic wasn’t “fixed” to suit your standards.
You knew you were playing a resemblance of original vanilla. You know, the game others requested as they didn’t want to play what the game had evolved into. But no, you are much more important than they are, and must have features that were never in OG vanilla.
As the dwarf says, get bent!
The evidence is in the game. No one’s going to bother installing Retail and recording a video for you to show how long it take to find a Tank for Mythic dungeons. The fact is that for solo DPS players, or even Tank-less groups the average time to find a Tank for any given dungeon hasn’t lowered significantly since Dual-Spec was introduced. Whether you want to believe that or not is on you.
You also forget that Dual-Spec only ever existed in a world with Dungeon Finder queues and the massively buffed Tank threat from WotLK as well. It’s one thing to click 2 buttons and be in a dungeon that you have very little chance of messing up and no responsibility to the other players. It’s a bit different (especially for people who are completely new to Tanking) to find pugs in LFG that won’t immediately make them quit tanking.
No. Wrath, Cata, MoP, WoD, Legion, BfA and Shadowlands have done plenty of testing to show you can’t force people to do something they don’t want to, regardless of how easy, convenient, or rewarding it is.
And offering rare mounts and pets from a loot bag didn’t fix it, making it easier to do, and no need to gear for it didn’t fix it, and dual spec, and tri spec, and quad spec didn’t fix it.
Retail shows your wrong from wrath to today’s retail all of them have had a considerable tank shortage even after extra rewards, convenient free respecs from anywhere and gear changing with spec, instant dungeon teleports, no work grouping, tanking made easy, exc. Still a tank shortage.
So classic is trash because people like the game AS IT IS…
I’m sorry that I don’t want you to morph classic tbc into being even closer to retail… I left the arcade game of retail for an mmorpg, inconvenience and all.
It wasn’t the inconvenience of bank alts I wanted guild banks for, and they didn’t make it into the game now did they?
To clarify, it was for the transparency, as I was in a guild in vanilla that took advantage of the lack of in game logs. But again, did guild banks make it into classic? It just ment I didn’t donate to the “guild bank”. I donated things to individuals, but not the character that had no logs attached to it that was acting as the guild bank.
Why keep throwing DS as something to “fight” the spec shortage when in truth it’s not going to solve anything and people just want more retail qol?
People keep lying to themselves for what purpose? unless they drop the respec to like 5-10g forever and even so the argument is “but going all the way back to the npc d0d so annoying”
This isnt going to solve anything for pugs in general.
Thats funny what patch did classic start on? cause I know it wasn’t the one vanilla wow started on XD. Damn I’m so glad we had layers back in vanilla too, oh wait nvm that wasn’t a thing. Man Chrono Displacer was also awesome back in the day as well…wait nvm. Increased mob spawning on certain quest mobs too was also awesome in vanilla…crap that wasn’t a thing also.
Damn sounds like they already changed classic from what it was in vanilla. I’m not gonna even touch the crap they changed in TBCC so far cause it would make dual spec haters look even more hopeless and pathetic
I love how people think it wont fix the tank issue in TBCC lol, got any evidence or are you just spewing your crappy opinion on the matter w/o backing anything up?
