Meme classes, like the Classic ret paladin or boomkin are good for an MMORPG.
The vanilla paladin was fun in the sense of making a bad class work, regardless of how much its lacking.
And making it work was very much possible in every regard. I had a fantastic time playing my ret paladin all throughout 2019 Classic, knowing full well what i was getting into.
The idea of locking the coolest thing, a warrior of light behind extra hurdles is what made it cool and appealing. Im not interested in the class when its just another meta garbage spec for deeply insecure minmaxers.
Making every class special means no class is.
Also it had good lore implications because people doing the right thing will be hated outsiders or outcasts, see Tirion. Which is very much how ret paladins have been treated by most players.
And still, if you have basic social skills you will have no trouble gearing the class up immediately, like any other. I literally told a guy trying trying to recruit me at level 40 âOh you dont want me, im gonna play retâ and was promised first Sulfuras the same moment. My entire run through Classic as a ret paladin was easy going and enjoyable, which kinda is the point of this incredibly easy, no difficulty game.
This whole idea that every class needs to be on equal levels in every regard is fueled by zoomer wrath babies and parse bros who are unable to have fun. Look at all the SOD paladins complaining, even with the insane kit of abilities they have been handed.
So Blizzard, after SOD has finally died, kindly restore my ret paladin its former state. You have my permission to change Blessing of Freedom into Hand of Freedom though. Its pretty awkward when Freedom removes Wisdom in fights.
Exactly and SOD prevents good Classic content from happening. So we need it to end already.
Season of Discovery and its consequences have been a disaster for the Classic playerbase.
I would post you guys a picture of my extremely wholesome boomkin druid who never learned any form but boomkin to lighten the mood, but its not allowing me to post images.
Classic Era exists dude. Not sure why youâre on the experimental, beta version of Classic+ when youâre clearly so stuck in the past that youâd be happier on Classic Era.
Shooting yourself in the foot playing a game thatâs quite obviously not made for you.
Era is not an option for Classic players. I dont know how many times i have to explain this.
Era from the very start had open world killing Retail features like the chronoboon, an economy plagued by GDKP RMT and now features free rank 14 handouts.
Also Era is locked in phase 6, the worst phase, cramped with TBC-level gear. And im not biased against Era, i cloned my amazing Paladin and all. Era just is an abomination.
Hey atleast you admit to paying to be a BETA tester. I assure you im not on SOD, im not stupid. After that lowest effort reveal trailer i swore not to play.
So youâre not playing SoD and also not playing Classic Era. I assume youâre probably not playing Wotlk Classic or Retail either based on your comments.
And yet, you need an active subscription to post on the forums.
So⌠rather than paying to be a beta tester like the rest of us, youâre paying to post crybaby thread after crybaby thread on the SoD forums instead?
Not sure if thatâs the brag you think it is my guy.
