Clearly I’m unable to explain to you why what you’re saying isn’t a franken-patch so I’m going to stop responding.

Good, because clearly you don’t understand that using 1.12 data and delivering content in stages is exactly what they are doing and what people are talking about when they say “mismatched content.”
I couldn’t tell if you were being willfully ignorant or otherwise but I’m relieved to know that you are done barking up the wrong tree.
Ok Bornakk,
How many times did you die in the classic alpha this weekend?

Content Phasing has never been the franken-patch part.
No DHKs in CP6 - Franken-patch.
Guild banks - Franken-patch.
AV 1.5 in CP6 - Franken-patch.
Content being phased but ending up at 1.12 - Not franken-patch.

1.12 with staged content is EXACTLY what a Franken-patch is. It’s not a real Vanilla patch.
But I’m not the one using the Franken-patch terminology. You said that yourself.
I thought you were “done responding”?

Don’t claim victory because someone else is sick of trying to explain to you something you don’t understand, if you want them to stop responding. You’re wrong, you just won’t accept it.
sigh.

Soooo… Alabama?
All the pieces that comprise each phase release come from the same 1.12 version. They are pulling nothing from prior versions and cobbling it together. All they do is throw switches in the code to inhibit functions until the designated phase begins.

The people arguing in here are barking up the wrong tree.
What I said was they are using 1.12 data and releasing content in stages. Factually true. An explanation isn’t needed.
Facepalm
I’m saying that using 1.12 balance and itemization from the beginning is “Frankenstein” because we’re not really going to see game balance progress as it did in Vanilla.
Instead of understanding my perspective you just keep arguing about this Franken-patch thing, especially when Blizz has already written posts about how content and PVP are going to be handled.

A soft bet - when Classic goes live, venture to the WSG start area. I bet you will find all the artwork intact and ready to go, looking just as it did in 1.12. There will even be a portal into the BG but it, obviously, will not be active. You might even find the NPCs standing around, I can’t venture whether they would inhibit them or not. If they are present, they won’t have anything to sell you. But when Phase 3 starts, they throw a couple switches, the portal becomes active, and you can enter the instance.
This is not a combination of pieces from various patches. This is simply activating stuff that will all be present in the Classic rollout. All stuff from 1.12.

I am grateful Blizzard is not being irresponsible enough to announce a release date for a product that just entered alpha testing.

Frankenpatch has had widespread support since the project was announced. Even had a mention from J A Brack that you continue to ignore about wanting to know what versions of vanilla aspects we’d like to see in classic.
Who is this “we” you have the gall to speak for?

Blizzard I’m practically an employee at this point
You may know we are all excited, but you underestimate the depths of it.
I have already drawn up a lvling talent build for my priest,
I have already done my professions that my 2 toons will have (rogue will be miner+herb and my priest will be engie+alchemist, cause you fear me grinding as a rogue, but stomp me as a priest.),
I have already made peace with looking for a PvX guild on a PvP server,
I have already decided I want a DKP guild,
I AM JUST WAITING ON RELEASE…
