Are you even playing SoD, trolly mctrollface?
There are warlock tanks, mage healers, melee hunters, tank rogues… the game is already blown up. What fantasy image of classic are you trying to protect that isnt already in pieces?
So why is that a good thing? We’ll stay level 25 for a while, why would it be so bad if it were enjoyable for all? Casters are nerfed enough already with no spellpower or hit on lowbie gear why not let them actually cast their stuff and contribute in group content?

Because to a huge portion of melee halfwits on these forums, their idea of fun is keeping others from having any.

Mechanics and safety. There is safety being at range from an enemy, and danger being in melee. For example (in classic) you have Baron Geddon. He pulses damage to everyone in 30 yards of him. Stand outside of that range, you are in zero danger. But melee who want to dps have to take constant damage and pray their healers will keep them alive.
Playing a caster is the hyper safe baby mode of WoW. Your punishment is bad class mechanics and poor damage.

Yeah, they should make ranged pay for it by having less hp or less armor, or something.

yeah I say we buff caster damage but make all their spells 5 yd range 
have fun with that, guys.
And less damage. And not infinite sustained damage. And spell pushback. And potential to be interrupted. And worse gearing options.
Go to retail if those shouldn’t be true anymore to you.

Yeah! Go to retail if you want melee hunters or demonhunter warlocks!
…Oh wait.
if retail doesn’t have those options then it should tell you just how silly and ridiculous they are.

Yeah, they would never be added to Classic. The integrity of classic means too much to me. I would never be able to call it Classic anymore if such things were added to the game. I would lose all ability to shout down suggestions for changes if they ever existed in Classic. Good thing Classic has never changed in any way.
not approved by vanilla standards. Next please.

Thats just bad encounter design, why do you want it to stay that way?
pray their healers will keep them alive.
Aren’t they also mana users who would benefit from the suggested change? Hell, even mana using tanks would.

But nobody is talking about survivability. Just a tune up on damage and resource management.

Scorpid says what?
why on earth is that bad encounter design?
you want melee and ranged to be equally in danger? lol. is this how it is on retail? that would explain it.
Melee being in danger is a myth, always has been. Standing behind a boss is no harder than not standing in fire. Get yourself a better myth.

alternatingly? of course. Have stuff drop from the ceiling, erupt from the floor, areas breaking down, areas covered in fire. I dont want encounters where half the raid is perfectly safe and half is doing all the mechanics, thats boring af
baron geddon and similar mechanics are not a myth.
Sounds like you must hate this season, you shouldnt play it IMO

sure, and classic has those kinds of fights too. but at the end of the day, melee has to deal with more crap. because they are up close and personal with the mobs. this is natural and how it should be.
