What does that even mean? The only farming I’m doing is for Black Dragonscales.
Population changes from vanilla have had a big impact on the availability of Black Lotus making flasks more rare - impacting your PvE.
Bye.
I know this, he is just mad.
You’re embarrassing yourself now.
You should probably stop.
I have plenty of mats, and i dont even have that much game play time compared to most.
If you want to transfer a toon over, i can sport you some.

The server situation (including layering) was one of the issues the devs had to solve due to the massively changed nature of the internet, player systems, server technology, and the size of the industry now. They chose the way they chose. I also would have preferred if they locked off all servers to 5000 players (as it was in Vanilla initially), but it was a compromise.
Server tech now is fundamentally different to what it was in 2006 (when it was in its infancy). This was an acceptable compromise to the changed client software the Classic client now sits on top of, IMO.
Blizzard wont make a change to Classic that isnt in the spirit of Vanilla. Thats my strong belief.

I sincerely hope you’re right. I ran out of any real trust in Blizzard after Diablo Immortal. Classic was the last gasp for me.
I lost my faith as well - its a corporate husk now. Classic is a throw back to a labor of love. They wouldnt dare touch it.
Classic+ will never happen.
Please give us mercenary mode next!
1 hour 20 mins for av queue makes us sad!
Nope. Roll Alliance if you want fast queues. Youre not going to have your cake and eat it too.
Your playing classic + now…
RIP Vanilla 2006…

Hows that fake and unneeded spell batching going…
You conveniently ignored the very next phrase. But it’s ok, this is how this discussion goes. After Blizzard’s abandonment of their own position, I’m not invested in it anymore.
I didnt ignore it I asked how it was going.
They did not want to open 500 servers for the initial surge, just to have to close/merge them later as the surge of curiosity backed off.
The layering let the realms establish and keep their identity.
Even retail uses spell batching.
Just on a shorter cycle and it has multi threaded prioritization.
They kept the cycle time in classic to mimic what it was in vanilla, as close
as the newer systems could duplicate.
And to be honest, it has not hurt me terribly much and a few times went much in my favor.
It is easy to work with, simply go with it and stop trying to fight it.
Wart: You can MC someone into lava and kill them.
Griefing: You can exploit the portal to MC someone permanently out of the current BG and give them a deserter debuff while you’re at it.
I honestly don’t know why so many people have trouble telling the difference. It seems perfectly obvious to me.

Sorry, but this is silly, and illustrates the core of the issue. “Warts and all” meant leaving the game as it was, without any changes to satisfy modern tastes or requirements. The context of that is clear in video from which it comes - the Blizzcon reveal. But it’s the only approach that makes sense anyway. What is “obvious” to you is “obviously” wrong to others. It’s all entirely subjective, which is why Ion stated they didn’t want to open that particular “Pandora’s Box”. The only way to keep it authentic was not to touch any of it.
The reality is if you rationalize any change, no matter the reason, you have set a precedent that allows the rationalization of other changes ad infinitum. Just watch.

How about the back-door into the Alliance keep, I have videos of horde using the terrain.
Yes they even have to cheat today STILL!
And whilst your at it, do something about the map in balance in AV, thanks.

changes like this will come long after the major horde streamers are Rank14
Ouranos, are you saying you are upset because one side is trying to complete the objective of the game?
The Horde “forces longer games” because they are trying to get as much as possible out of the game as they can. They are trying to complete every objective. Kill Lieutenants, Captains, Cap all Bunkers, Cap all Graveyards, and above all, stop the other team from getting any of those things. I would think this would be really obvious since it’s then entire reason for the battleground…
