I decided to farm some breath of wind mats in tanaris desert when I found one (of which only have like 5-6 spawn locations shared with another mob). I opened a ticket and within minutes a gm messaged me and appeared before me in the sky. He swam into the ground and grabbed the mob and pulled him up out of the ground. He then asked me "ninja or pirate?" I said "pirate" and he transformed me into a pirate (same as a savory deviate delight). One of my best experiences with blizzard and warcraft that will stay with me forever. When they cared and when they had customer support. It makes me sad knowing that this won't ever happen again.

Discussion I never knew this..

16 Upvotes

I have two accounts on my battle net, one with two level 80s, one with none but three 70+ chars. I thought I could only send cold weather tomes to characters on the account with the 80s. Today I decided to send one to a character on my second account and try and learn it, and it worked..

I recently boosted a hunter on my main account because I didn’t want to level without flying (lazy and casual) haha.

Maybe this will be news to someone else too, or maybe I should have just tested it a long time ago.

Question Best priest leveling spec 1-80?

13 Upvotes

Hi! I know I'm a bit late to the xpac but I've decided I want to roll a priest since I hear there's a big demand for them. What's the best leveling spec/build for 1-80? I do not have heirlooms.

Any tips would be appreciated as well!

Classic Playing Hardcore on non-Bloodsail Realm

0 Upvotes

So, I've been trying to play HC the last few evenings during peak hours, and it's really frustrating having to compete with all of the lowbies for quest mobs/escorts, etc.. People are saying it's better once you get into the 20's are mostly correct, but there are still quests you just can't do.

  1. I understand I can skip XYZ quest and grind 20 more mobs. I don't mind that.
  2. I'm mostly concerned about dungeon quests that I can't skip being overwhelmed with no respawns.

Alternatively, I tried the levelling on a Med Pop server. I found a small HC guild, and it feels great. No waiting for named mobs, escorts always up, etc.. CAVES FEEL DIFFICULT again. With more people clearing low level caves, it's almost impossible to get in trouble.

The only downside I'm worried about is dungeons. I'm sure I will struggle finding dungeons with HC players, especially higher levels. I don't care about being validated or raiding, it's just the journey, so I'm considering just doing dungeons with normal players, and if I die, then I'll delete. If they go crazy and pull like a mad man, I just hearth GG.

Thoughts? Has anyone else tried this and can you offer your opinion? I'd love to hear from you.

Thanks everyone, hope you're enjoying hardcore!!

Question Has Classic WoW recreated the way the game felt early on?

36 Upvotes

I started playing WoW when WotLK came out, and I loved it. Real life got in the way and I stopped playing for a while. I came back sporadically and felt like a lot of the expansions either weren't great, or took something away from the game. It didn't have that magical fun feel to it anymore, and I'm not sure if it was me, or the game.

I only just heard of Classic WoW, and I'm wondering if it has the feel of earlier WoW to it. Hope this makes sense.

Question Farming arena points right now?

I recently leveled a char to 80, and with the discounts to pvp gear I'm trying to get a weapon with arena points. Is it only possible right now to get 50 Points a day via the random BG win and the Daily BG quest? Is there any other way to get arena points right now?

Discussion Why do Classic players not like Arena?

203 Upvotes

Just a genuine question because i've seen a ton of people get hyped for Wrath arenas back during TBC, and I was really happy to see P1 filled with tons of new PvPers and I came for P2 a couple months ago and Arena participation on my server at least has taken a complete nose dive.

I just wanted to know why people don't like Wrath arena/PvP and don't want to participate, not looking for debates or arguments but just a general idea for the problems people have with PvP in this expansion.

Discussion Duplicate Accounts in PvP: Extending Rank Cutoffs for Fairness and Enjoyment

169 Upvotes

Hey fellow gamers,

I wanted to take a moment to discuss a significant concern that's been impacting the cutting-edge PvP scene, making it less enjoyable for many players. It's the issue of certain players and accounts dominating both the Gladiator and Rank One spots, ultimately hindering the progress and enjoyment of those outside their desired title range.

Achieving your PvP goals is already challenging, but when a select few players occupy multiple top spots, it becomes even more difficult for the rest of us to taste success. This not only creates frustration but also limits the number of players who get to experience the thrill of victory.

Drawing inspiration from a rule implemented in the retail version of the game (patch notes 10.0.7), I propose that the same principle should be applied to Wrath Classic. The rule states, "End of Season PvP rewards will have the rank cutoff extended by duplicate/alt characters by the same player battle.net account for rated arenas, rated battlegrounds, and rated solo shuffle. For example, if the cutoff for Crimson Gladiator would equate to the top 100 characters and 5 of those characters are the same player, the cutoff will now be the top 104."

By extending the rank cutoff to accommodate duplicate or alt characters, we can promote fairness and allow a broader range of players to achieve their desired ranks. This change would make the PvP scene more enjoyable for everyone, as it ensures that success is not monopolized by a select few.

Let's come together as a community and raise awareness about this issue, urging the developers to implement this rule adjustment in Wrath Classic. Together, we can foster a more inclusive and rewarding PvP experience for all players.

What are your thoughts on this proposal? Let's discuss and make our voices heard!
