In vanilla when lotuses spawned in Av youd usually have 1 or 2 games that would sometimes last literally days⌠so 5 lotus per wasnt REALLY a big deal. Entirely not the case when your average AV game last 30 minutes. Youâre talking about thousands more Lotus in the economy.
Plus youâll inevitably end up with a ton of people who join AV, run to the node spawns then immediately Afk out. Youâll end up with a bunch of half empty AVs. If you think Bots and Afkers in AV are bad nowâŚ
No we donât. Classic launched with only 13 servers. Vanilla had way more. Server pops are higher now for sure. But overall pop is probably nowhere close. By the time TBC launched wow was around 8 million. Iâd bet my next paycheck classic doesnât have 8 million active players
I really donât get how the shortage of Black Lotus is such a big deal. Flasks are not needed at all.
My guild had all the content available on farm shortly after release and I dare to say most of us have never used a flask or even had a Black Lotus in the bags for that matter. I can only think of 3-4 people who use them, but these guys play 24/7 and enjoy try-harding logs (nothing wrong with that).
Guilds have been making a mockery out of MC and BWL since release. Trust me, AQ and Naxx are not going to be any different.
Their test client probably had the current AV version on and not the previous iteration. Restoring the actual AV with guards and nodes would have been more work than to just copy paste the test client version into their spagethi code classic abomination client.
I came into this thread ready to laugh off your suggestion but after reading this and imagining how fun old AV could be itâs really changed my perspective I agree with OP!
Imagine how fast Horde queues for AV would be if they knew they could get more Black Lotus by ending the game quickly and getting into a new game where the herb is already spawned.
Oh darling, thereâs a huge thread of people asking for older AV and not 1.12 AV. Reverting AV back or letting lotus spawn in it wouldnât break anything. No changers cannot argue this because it doesnât go against #nochanges.
