Having done some leveling in Forever now, I was sad to see they brought back the mob type immunities. I was sure after removing them in SoD they’d realized they were not an enriching part of gameplay for Classic.
Being forced to go Frost (or I guess arcane if you hate yourself given the poor mana state of Forever atm) on a mage for multiple raid tiers because things are 100% immune to fire is awful.
Having bosses and trash immune to bleeds/poisons is terrible for rogues/feral druids/warriors.
Numerous examples could go on, but the point is those immunities punish some classes and specs, and tell players they can’t play the game the way they want to and instead need to suffer playing some other spec, switch to another class, or simply not play at all until there’s new content that isn’t immune to their spec.
Follow in SoD’s footsteps, remove mob immunities to let people play what they want. Cheers.

it is not terrible design it’s RPG design… as a warrior I don’t mind bleed immune mobs with high armor because that’s the way it is and when I face a spell caster mob with low armor/hp it makes up for the frustration
i personally like pluses and minuses
Whelp, no reason to play ele shaman, fire magr or boomkin because noones gonna want to take you into raids in 5 months when half the mobs in the current raid are gonna be immune to your damage. Guess thats why they added duel spec so you can reroll enhancement, feral and frost mage cause screw you and playing what you wanna play.
They have specifically addressed this that it is intended and they will keep doing it. Sorry.
Yeah. I assumed they would because theyd have a classic andy revolt even though it screws over more players then who would care if it was changed.

Its not all retail players that have bad takes, but its always retail player that has the worst takes.

Immunities are ridiculous to keep in Weenie Hut Jr Jr classic I mean wowF
Good it’s so unique I’d hate to see it go. Just need to ensure classes have more than 1 spell school. Mages have frostfire bolt at least to so fire and frost have some crossover. Curious to see what happens when we hit nature immunities though.

Time to switch to feral lol
My favourite so far has been playing the game of “Is this specific undead immune to devouring plague?”
I’ve found no rhyme, reason, or correlation to decide it. Not elite status, not model, not type, nothing. Some just are immune to it and some aren’t. Always fun to waste 500 mana for nothing,
With what gear?
The gear you can buy or craft, the gear that drops from mobs in the world or dungeons. Alternatively, just switch to healing for that fight.

Oh when it comes to hybrids I like to play every spec and do all that I can so I’m fine swapping around. Gives me more gear to pursue and mix and match for pvp too. But a loooot of players are going to hard commit to 1 spec and be angry when they “can’t” use it. But perhaps blizzard will give them alternatives via wacky new items to help.
