Implement a Super Hard mode for all raids (a new option)

And usually everyone wants you to get every buff for naxx.
So yes they will be mad if you dont. Barely anyone in 2006 had world buffs.
Anyone can see that.

Hard mode could be a fresh server with all raids unlocked (no AQ).

See if Naxx could be cleared in blues/greens or if the server would need to work together to unlock AQ for the gear upgrade.

change the AQ mats too

World buffs are a problem of too many chicken poop gamers afraid of dieing in a game, who spend lots of real world money on the black gold market to buy gear in gdkps.

Fresh server with hardmodes would scare away the whiners.

True but at least with this option theres no negatives. We get both so its a win win situation.

An option that can keep players doing raids with world buffs and an option to raid without world buffs. So far as you can see players are forced to get world buffs or they lose 1000g from pot in gdkp. It’s not an option. We are forced.

Here is proof

World buffs are causing players to skip the heigan dance. It’s beyond stupid. On wow classic logs you can see thesame player who did 1k without buffs do 2k with them

You can do this right now. Without Blizzard having to lift a finger.

Nope

Yes, yes you can.

No because every naxx gdkp has penalties.
Are you blind

Make your own group with your own rules.

And what if you don’t know how to run your own? You quit the game like everyone in my guild

People quit due to “must have” world buffs

Making an option allows for the others who quit to return to the game which means more profit. More money because you lose less players and you dont touch the original game. So you have the original game + extra mode.

You learn.

Player-based solutions to player-based problems.

No.

I NEED my world buffs.

Because world buffs — along with my BiS gear which I earned by Putting In The Time — allow me to get top DPS and 99 parse by spamming a single button rotation

I never said GET RID OF THEM. Read thanks.
I said have both options. Have them in raids and have an option where you can’t have them in raids.

Get ready to lose 2000 gold. 70% of the pot is gone if you do that. You get a penalty! Nice one.
No newcomer will know the boss fights and you cant expect every one of them to lead a raid. Only the ones who raided on private servers or classic 2006. So the option prevents the forced law of you entering anyone’s gdkp where you MUST have world buffs. Because some people don’t give a stuff. They don’t want to collect world buffs.

Just go join the Hardcore WoW Classic community if you want hardmode :wink:

No. It’s about what’s right. You stand up for whats right. You dont run away.

Why should my friends quit the game and have blizzard lose a sub or money becaause they lose their gold from a gold penalty because they have a preference that they dont like collecting world buffs and then if someone who has never done aq or naxx wants to start their own raid they need to know everything when they dont. Cater it for players who have just started a new raid and have both available. An option for buffs and one without. More gdkps will be using the no world buff option and there will be more balance rather than ALL gdkps.

What’s good is when not EVERY SINGLE GDKP IN EXISTENCE forces you to have world buffs and make you lose 70% of your gold with a gold penalty for not having the buffs.

Time for an option to remove world buffs in classic raids. And without removing them from the game so you still have the normal option of having world buffs too in classic raids.

Naxxrammas (option buffs)
Naxxrammas (option non buffs)
Molten Core (option buffs)
Molten Core (option non buffs)

Etc…

Just like you have a classic wow logs setting for for with world buffs phase 6 (P6) and dps without
Why not have the in-game modes? And not just on classic logs?

You can see the difference it makes

With and without world buffs on patchwerk
You can see the difference

I agree no world buffs in raids would be awesome, but referencing a type of raid (GDKPs) where RMT or gold buying is rampant is a seriously hurting your argument here.

I don’t think you’re understanding the concept of “start your own”.

Don’t need blizzard to implement a hard mode. You can just run a Naxx with no consumes. Use Warcraft logs to track data. I assume you’d be doing this for a challenge or bragging rights.

There’s a few guilds on my realm that already run no WBs Naxx. I don’t see blizzard adding an option to enforce it, it’s all on the players.

Not against the idea, just saying it’s already possible to do this. Don’t hold your breath on a feature they’ll never add.

Have you tried getting into a guild that doesn’t use world buffs? It’s actually impossible.
