The only people for spell batching dont know what it is.
Spell batching is in retail. It never left
When people say they want spell batching they are asking for artificial lag.
In Vanilla the lag between batches varried bassed on server load. It want predictable and had no benifit you could take advantage of.
Unless you realy wanted to get knocked out of vanish or waste an interupt on a spell that goes off anyway.

No vanilla experience would be complete without the goofiness like mages sheeping each other or warriors charging to each other’s former locations.

It’s not lag. lol.
It amazes me that the people against it don’t even have a clue how it works.

Go look up lag. You are objectivly wrong.
U don’t know how it works so u try and redirect others with fuzzy words.
I hope they can test this one too to make it authentic, which I trust them to do.
It is ability lag, there is no other way of looking at it.

It’s not lag.
Fine then, delay.
Is that better?
Delay what?
IMO Anyone asking for any changes isn’t wanting to play a authentic vanilla wow experience. Despite what is considered a negative/positive with Classic it is what made it Classic. There is no need to mess with anything.

Spell batching is ability delay, they are delayed and sent out in 400ms batches.
This is nonsense. Creating a feeling of lag for the entire game just so two mages can occasionally sheep one another in a perfectly timed situation is dumb.

Spell batching is a method of processing events reported by clients
Instead of processing them as they come in they are processed as batches at regular intervals. This is still done in BFA
That time between the event being reported and processed is refered to as lag.
When the server was over loaded the lag time would be longer.
When people say they want spell batching they mean they want that lag to be artificialy extended.
But they have to make artificial changes to try to replicate this, and they can’t. So essentially YOU are the one asking for changes.
Classic to be as it was in vanilla.

How? I’m not making threads about specifics things that want changed.
If you want and authentiv vanilla experience then demand spell batching be removed.
Durring vanilla the community and the devs wanted it gone.
You are the change.
What? You’re really not making sense here.

I’m definitely authentically frustrated Heroic Strike seems to take 5 seconds to go off compared to other spells which go off relatively well otherwise.
