Idk I had fun doing it. I had forgotten how good the talent trees were for UH back then. I actually felt stronger and stronger with talent points, gear upgrades and leveling.
I did miss some of the already built in features of retail though.
Contemplating if I want to play it for a time, I’ll always go back to retail though.
I’ve enjoyed all of the classic content, but I was surprised at how different leveling is in Wrath classic vs vanilla classic.
Classes are so much more powerful and they’ve gutted a lot of the open world mobs, including pretty much every open world elite is now a normal mob.
I didn’t remember them changing it this much (they did, obviously) the first time though but now when vanilla classic and wrath are only 1ish years apart (end of classic to wrath pre-patch) it’s really noticeable.
I agree, that really sucks. I’ve seen so many complaints on the forums about this. It would have been nice for them to add for those that really want it. What would it hurt really?
I know how it works, I’ve played from BC to now without a break.
I don’t like not having RDF when playing an xpac that had it
I’ll never do M+ again for as long as timers exist and I have to run there and I’ll never do M0 as long as I have to run there.
It’ll come to an end soon. Once you realize that the classic community is trash gold buying exploiting faction stacking GDKP meta’ing parse lording meter monkeying super sweats in the easiest iteration of the game ever are, you’ll become disenchanted.
I’m glad you’re enjoying yourself, but truly; the classic community is awful.
What can one even say about this garbage. This is an MMO. Its supposed to require time invested. The world becomes part of the essence of the game when leveling is a through process. When you can just rush to max in a very short amount of time, or even worse, boost - a major component of the MMO - the world, is foregone.
Such a minor issue to complain about. MMO’s are all about competition and comradery. There are few “quality of life” components in modern wow that are missing in WOTLK.
I agree, but then again, a lot of them are undercut with unnecessary complexity, layers upon layers of systems, borrowed power and their respective grinds, etc.
While I could never go back to cars without power windows, I can understand the appeal. You can just roll them down. Car doesn’t need to be on, doesn’t require battery. It just “works”.
Sometimes simple is just better, or in this case, provides less friction to play.
I lost interest in my classic DK after just a day or two. I’ve opted instead to do an old fashioned leveling of an orc warrior in retail. No heirlooms. Read the quest text. Do some dungeons.
