Pvp the other lowbies.
Walk around and pretend im a kid again…
A million things.
Is it early vanilla itemization when Princess in Mara dropped 1 green ROG and 1 blue item from her table? Or the version later on where she was changed to drop 2 blue items.
I’ve got classic footage all over the place on that one. I cannot firmly tell when they changed the drop tables/amounts/percentages.
And lots of pathing changes. What about Mages/Locks/Priests soloing the first boss of DM North due to the pathing. That worked all Vanilla, but doesn’t work on live retail after Cataclysm. They may use the correct models, but what about the pathing, is it Vanilla Authentic too?
And a million others that I won’t mention because some of them are… well useful, and Im not giving up that info. But Man there’s a LOT to test.
You forgot to add: Brag to people that I’m on the beta.
This. /\
If people are talking about authentic experiences, we should to be able to hop behind that pillar and initiate a duel. The first thing I fought with my terrible 2h sword Destiny, was a hunter in Ironforge near that pillar by the bank. I still remember this because whooping his butt validated my purchase of that overpriced paperweight.
I forgot this part. I always get so selfish.
Report things like “cannot start duel behind Ironforge pillar” as bugs, specifically.
I’ll be testing Barrens chat.
I am sure some people will be testing right click mute.
Test fishing, I need Ashbringer on my Hunter.
sadly I think most of the points listed here won’t work because of modern client.
Which ones?
diremaul not going in to game till later patch, if i recall the patch roll out update.
I’m hoping that a beta will help the devs determine how to handle sharding (or lack thereof) in the starting zones.
truly the only thing that matters
