You said you loved classic and you wanted a vanilla experience but in reality you are just abusing every possible thing you can in the game that is bugged, broken etc.
Look at all the examples we got till this point:
LFG Addon
Layer exploit
Raid exp bug exploit
Demoralizing shout bug exploit
Possible NOT confirmed things that could be harming the game:
Possible Frost Nova bug (not being resisted by mobs)
Spy addon that for many people is outright cheating and that nope there was not an addon like this in classic, in fact they were many addons to TRY to achive what this addon does but couldn’t even do what this addon does now.
Auction House Addon, giving way too much market information and automatizes too much for the player.
Possible experience bug, players take low level alts or friends to dungeons to “power level” them giving them FULL experience when they should be receiving reduced exp.
You people say that you wanted classic, that you loved the game etc. But now that it is here you are using every loop hole you can to destroy your experience and the others just to take advantaje, you should feel ashamed.
If you truly love the game and want a true vanilla experience report this stuff, STOP abusing the game you supposedly love.
This is also an attitude Streamers encourage, they are one of the first people to abuse this things and then come with excuses on why they do it, like Asmongold saying “he already did that in the past and it was boring”, when he was really vocal before saying that Vanilla was all about the Journey and that it was the best itteration of WoW, etc. etc., then the game comes out and exploits the hell out of it.
Report the bugs and stuff that could harm the spirit of the game PLEASE, have some integrity.
It’s really a shame that the GoGoGo aoe grind has got a foot hold in classic due to a couple of bugs. I like M+ and retail, but that’s a different game and I was hoping it would be left there.
Edit: These types of posts never seem to do well. The points are valid and it forces people to face a little guilt so they just tend to ignore it and hope it goes away.
I think you’re just seeing the few that are abusing and focusing on that. Yes there are some people abusing. But there are 2 million just playing the way they want. (Yes 2 million is a guess.)
My friends and I are just running instance after instance, sheeping and face melting along the way. Old school fun!

You seem to think that all players are the same / are one person. I’ve personally never used any of these exploits and I’m loving classic. This is the most fun game ever for me and I see myself playing it for years to come.
I can maybe get 8 hours a week in, ive teacher level 31 now. Taking it slow and just enjoying the game
Calm down a little op, the game is not nearly as broken as your post makes it seem.
LFG Classic isn’t hurting anyone. All it does is gather the LFG messages from all the relevant chat channels in one easy to review place and sort them based on the text of the message.
The tool could have been a lot more useful and there were plans for it until they author decided to axe the other features since Blizz didn’t want it being that way. It certainly isn’t worth the death threats the author is getting for making the tool.
My observations of mages AoEing mobs 3/4/5 above them tells a different story … eg, a level 34 mage freezing 6 level 38s 3 times in a row with zero resists.
The issue here is trust. We know BFA launch was spectacularly bad and full of broken promises so people seeing “Bug this Bug that” their going to come off negative because they know blizzard’s record.
Some claims seem bogus like the battle shout due to patch notes and now there are some claims of nerfing “griefing” mechanics.
Not saying they should just leave things as is atm because clearly there are issues that shouldn’t be there, my point is that some changes are questionable, and some changes no one knows for sure if it’s legit or not.
No. It doesn’t hurt.
I am just reporting my personal experience. Frost nova does get resisted. Is it at the correct percentage, I have no idea, but it seams to work how I remember.
Ya. But how long does that last. Also most mages spec into talents that reduce the chance of mobs resisting their spells
Edit. NPC mobs don’t have DR. So frostnova ing them over and over doesn’t have anything to do with the mobs chance of resisting… only Player characters have DRs
The chance to resist a spell increases the higher a mobs level is in relation to your own. A mob 5 levels higher then you has high chance to resist but its not 100%, while a mob 10 levels above you is going to resist 9 times out 10 if not everytime.
The only thing I’ve noticed that is really bizarrely non-vanilla to me is hunter pet pathing when the hunter jumps a gap or jumps down. Doing WC, the hunter would jump and the pet would just appear next to them. What I remember was having half a dungeon pulled on us as the pet ran the long way around to get to that location.
What I would say, though, is that making a forum thread isn’t the best way to report possible bugs. Using Submit Bug in-game gets directly to the people who need to review it, as long as you provide clear information.
