Warriors should be nerfed for the health and longevity of the game.
Also, fix the obvious diamond flask bug.

Nerfing Mages would benefit "the health and longevity of the game" far more than any changes to Warriors.
Y’know, if you legit care about that sorta thang, Qpon.

In all seriousness, yeah everyone agrees warriors are an OP class for raid compositions (for speed running guilds, which are the top 0.1%). But in reality, the vast majority of guilds are running with a moderate amount, around 5-10 warriors tops. Mages are also needed in healthy numbers for the majority of guilds for various raid mechanics.
In terms of damaging the health and longevity of the game? Mages and their farming, boosting and gold hoarding is impacting the game negatively more than any other class is capable of. People cannot find groups to level the normal way and it’s negatively impacting the community and spirit of the game. People are buying gold in crazy amounts so they can keep up with inflated prices mages have caused (an even worse problem, and making inflation more severe).
Blizzard should never have allowed the amount of gross aoe farming and boosting that has been going on for months. They also failed to fix numerous exploits early on before they negatively impacted the economy. Normal players can hardly afford anything now because of the inflation some mages and exploiters caused. This is not vanilla-like, more than anything else I’ve experienced thus far.

Vanilla forum activity included at least one rickroll per diem.
Remove world buffs and melee dps will likely be brought back in line with the rest of the dps. The way classic is designed melee just benefits exponentially more than any of the ranged dps specs.

No reason to remove world buffs

and resto druid and nerf windfury nerf chain to heal for a maximum of 1 % of total hp or 2% of their maximum health if they have 800 healing power.
Make warrior do less damage if there more than 2 in the group. Make hunter do a debuff to melee attack power. Reduce hunter pet damage make sure that he miss 99% of the time on boss
make claw do 1 damage but give it a 1 for 1 attack power ratio.

i would suggest they fix the terrain exploits before touching the actual class mechanics. That would curtail all of the boosting past SM. Take away boosting and most mage money makers are pretty in line with things other classes can do.

I thought Frost Shock was a meme thing, like theres a video of it youtube as a goof, kinda like OOMkin and N00bfire or am I thinking another time period
Yeah I agree with you, the mage class functions in group PvE/PvP as it should, and class mechanics are working as intended there.
But the fact that mages can train 200 mobs in maraudon and exploit the terrain to aoe them all down at the same time is the issue. It takes practice, gear, and skill for sure, but it is so massively exploitable beyond what any other class can do. It is more that the mob mechanics are not working as they should be and some form of diminishing returns or aoe limit should be in place.

How so?
I am not negatively impacted by them. I play the game and have fun regardless of somebody else who plays the game.

Troll response and you know exactly what I’m talking about.
Everyone is impacted by inflation, unless you choose to simply farm everything you ever need solo and never interact with trade channels or the auction house.
Also those who want to level an alt normally are having more difficulty than they should be to find groups. Instead, many potential group mates are sitting at the entrance of a dungeon while a 60 mage aoe’s the place down for a gold fee, possibly bought from a Chinese or Russian website. These mages are making 1,000+ gold per day doing this.

That’s the problem there, all the videos I have seen require the mage to EXPLOIT the terrain, I don’t understand why that is OK with Blizzard, that by itself should be bannable.
