At this point, it's no longer Classic

Oh boy cant wait to invite all those green geared scrubs so my mount farm takes even more time …

Maybe Ill reserve something too for my “offspec” and prepare your wallets …

I’d be very surprised if certain server discords or GDKP discords don’t already have postings with prices and rules.

What I wonder now, if it is not WotLK anymore then could we maybe get instead a change to More Skulls for the Brew?

THIS. I message the guy and say like “we’ve been camping this stop for 30mins…” guy’s response “its a tough world, isn’t it?”

Zero sense of community, so I don’t get the thinking that not having instant queues for dungeons is helping to build community. What it does is force you to get get into a guild and do guild groups. If you can’t do that, then you are left not playing the game. Guess thats okay if they want to push the MMO part of it but i feel for people who work weird shifts and can’t easily get groups.

Also, hate to say it, having to go camp outside the dungeon sucks. The random queue was a massive QoL improvement into saving time.

A lot of the things I see people want in classic is keeping the massive time sinks into the game. (Ironically I bet most of these same people are either botting or buying gold …)

When they started talking about putting 10man loot in 5man dungeons and 25man loot in 10 man raids I had to check it wasn’t april 1st. This is just clown level custom changes, just release the damn game as it was you absolutele pineapples.

Also, I will tank dungeons without needing Ashes of Alar for doing it. You want to give me an incentive? Some gold, some more badges.

Ashes of Alar won’t be included its the Magisters Terrace mount he was talking about ^^

We’re doing the same content, the idea that you get bonus rewards for your role is stupid.

I feel the same way, but when things are going sideways sooner or later he will be fired in no time.

Do people like you have any brain capacity to understand why they are adding it in the first place, no? Well let me tell you why, because tanks stop doing them.

We are almost at the point where they can give us everything in retail and call it a day.

Hear me out - I do agree with the healer / tank reward in some sense, due the lack of those roles (at least based on history), that be said, why not give them something useful? Not everyone gives a damn about mounts, yet this will devalue mounts farmed for those give a damn about said mounts.

For all I care, tanks and healers could get a bag with 20g, 3x Badges and consumes of some sort, this would prove itself useful in some sense.

BUT, what does it matter, whatever the community say / want, blizzard tend to ruin it.

Have a lovely Thursday everyone, take care <3

Unhappy with these changes, and worried about the slippery slope (not that I like that argument) that may come from this. Won’t be long until people are cheering for WoW Tokens to be added.

Oh no, systems that will help bring more tanks and healers to the game, the biggest issue in pugs since forever :frowning: whatever will we do.

get a grip

Same as “win bonus” for alliance brought more alliance players into bgs …

The system that we already tried to bring more healers and tanks into the game in Cataclysm that proved to not really do what it was intended to do?

Sure Jan, sure.

I wanted to say that I think you are mentally challenged for this opinion. But then i saw blood elf rogue and it all makes sense

Wotlk classic dosnt mean it will be classic forever, classic its means that the classic idea game will finish in retail.

It will not be a second version of wow on classical feelings. It s just an code name of part time old system where at the end finishes story in the retail.

This is my thougths and fears.

Then why was Classic and TBCC just this?

I believe these kinda changes should be made for WotLK SoM or something. More and more we are moving away from the recreation of WotLK.

I can understand changing small QoL things that don’t affect core gameplay, but significant changes like these changes the entire way people will play and farm content. It changes the gearing process entirely too.

How is this in “the spirit” of the original WotLK?

…barely even know what to say, I honestly really don’t.

WOTLK does need to be renamed. This isn’t Classic. They really are making a “new” product and spitting in the face of Classic players. It’s pathetic, sad and pathetic. Blizzard, proven time and time again to have no integrity at all, or respect to their customers unless they’re mindless retail idiots.

there was similar in cata iirc, you got a bonus if their was a shortage of a particular role, which was more often then not a tank or a healer. However there was the odd DPS shortage that resulted in a bonus.

I am not sure on the mounts though, does it reduce the “specialness” of the mounts? It will 100% change the rarity. Also once they have all been gained what then? What is the tank/healers prerogative.

Surely Gold and/or some relevant (to the current tier) profession matts is the better option. This means the dungeon keeps it’s relevancy throughout. A chance of a decent gem, a heart of darkness, a crystal vortex, a sunmote orr such like would have increased the number of tanks and healers in TBC for sure.
