It’s a chore to be so dependent on others when no one cares about the chill content you love to do for fun.
Back in 2009 i never had a problem grouping old AQ40s, MCs and BWLs or any TBC raids.
Every weekend I grouped on Saturday and Sunday and all raids from 60 to 70 were clean.
I sometimes even grouped AQ40s with 35 lvl 80.
Today people are drugged for Naxx, Malygos, Sartha on their main, second alt and even triple alts.
So, can i supposed to do the old raid contents and my achiev alone or with 2-3 players only ?
Depending on others when no one is interested in doing the same as you is toxic.
Exactly like on TBC when you have an elite to kill which required 3 or even 4 people but which was a quest available at the end of longue chainquest.
I don’t like the buff like retail WoW, doing it alone AoE with auto run and gg.
I always loved group a big raid, running in and destroying the raid and getting our achievs all together.
But now i’m hating this Wotlk Classic because i can just do the exact same thing as pserv, i thought i could do the chill content like in the old days on my PvE serv but i was wrong.
So, put a big buff damage like retail, cross-serv LFG for the old raids content maybe i don’t know, but do something, or i’m forced to wait Cataclysm or MoP for this ?
Less people find it fun than in 2009. Well, tough luck, it’s not the only thing that has changed since 2009. I think you should make peace with the fact instead of asking Blizz to change their game for you specifically.
Im doing old content and I dont want it nerfed. Finding ways around soloing, or making a small effort finding a couple of people to help me, is enjoyable and doesnt devalue the content. Blizzard cant, and shouldnt, bend the game around you.
Whats the purpose with doing anything if its without any at all effort? Just a waste of time? To do it just to do it?
You seem to have alot of time, so help yourself to Retail (which you have access to) and clear the old content as much as you want if the process of it is so enjoyable to you. Because that would be the state of Classics older content if people got buffed, and it would ruin it for me and others capable of getting groups (“iT dOeSnt aFfEct oThEr PlaYerS”).
Where is Miylee when you need him? Whats the dollar count, Sir?
You are not doing anything because you can’t solo the old raid content, maybe if you are paladin or dk but good luck if you are Hunter.
THe old raid content is supposed to be chill and funny, not a challenge.
Oh ok it’s your alt, get /ignored again
EDIT : by the way, np, don’t do anything, i’ll just raid log 1 day and waiting 6 days to play again, and after that your classic community will cry “ouin ouin the game is not like it was before, people only raid log ouin ouin”
If wickedness could suffocate you would be long dead
Somebody that isn’t blocked kindly tell Monkeyboy here that the damage buff in retail wasn’t to make old content soloable, it was to make up for the level squish. Also, the content that he wants to solo wasn’t so easily soloable until Cataclysm; some Classes could solo a lot of Vanilla content in WoTLK but others struggled.
Furthermore:
By that logic, why should Blizzard waste time and resources just for you? Your school teachers might cater to your “special needs”, but that doesn’t mean everybody else will.
1164 dollars; extra dollar added for your earlier stupidity.
As a level 73 I have an easy time soloing Dire Maul…
… so why not make it so that at 80 I can solo 60 raids. Makes sense.
Maybe it shouldn’t be as aggressive as in retail (no idea about raids now, but ran 30 Nexus on my 40 hunter and it would have been perfect without an amplifier, it was literal oneshot lands with it) but a casual buff could work. Heck, ICC has a working precedent - a buff that you can have based on a condition. The one boss I remember particularly problematic was Twin Emperors.
The other perspective to it all is the transmog system, it gives motivation to players to go back and collect them. Exact details are a bit complicated - account or character bound, item or collection based. But regardless, it could be nice.
Are you really that dumb that you assume that Im doing it with my forum character, while you at the same time are postning with a Demon Hunter from Retail?
If anything that should give you a clue that people can post and play on different characters. Amazing…
It can be a challenge depending on how you do it, with what class and how much help you get. Its up to me as a player to decide. A buff would destroy all of these choices.
Again, if thats the experience you want its infront of your nose already.
Yeah, Im managing 2 active characters so that I can talk to you only… If people already didnt know u were the center of your own universe and only could see things from your perspective, now they do.
We will miss you so much. Please dont …
You are amazing at generalizing and seeing the world in black and white, if people arent with you clearly they belong to a group that all think and behave the same.
On a serious side Mr “It’s my 5th cycle”, perhaps it would do you good to take a break and do something else for 6 days.
I care about old raid content, though I don’t want the game changed to accommodate it. I feel like if this was a new game that wasn’t ever done before then it’s a possibility, but all this is exactly what is intended/expected from Classic - ignoring the frustrating changes they’ve made to WOTLK that is. So I would say you’d need to wait, if they even do Cataclysm or MOP ( ).
No idea if you can do it now, but I remember I used to solo AQ40 with a DK in Wrath all the way until twins as it literally required two people. Ironically AQ20 was harder to do
Edit:
If WoW was a world that you were in just by yourself, this would be true.
Malding…just when you think there couldn’t be any higher level of cringe words created by the internet. At least it isn’t “toxic” or “hateful” used incorrectly though.
Well, it becomes a problem when there aren’t actually other players (interested).
I mean, we have a modern solution for it - cash. You pay, I go help you.
(Then I go and hire someone to help me, or buy something I desire.)
In Thekal is hard to find people who wants to do old content. Mostly is ZG or AQ for rep. I’m still missing Serpentshrine Cavern for the TBC raider achievement and haven’t seen a single raid for this place since wotlk released.
I even created a char on Thekal to ask if there was old content group sometimes, i thought that there is more chance because it’s a fresh serv so nobody are exalted on old reput etc.
But i receveid 5 mp that’s it’s very rare and everyone want to farm P1
You are talking about current players where most not only min/maxed the living hell out of the old content during Classic (often on several characters), meaning many of them probably have all the reputation/gear they need and are sick and tired of thoose raids, but also a group where many wouldnt do a extra boss in a Heroic even if he was infront of them - unless they needed something from him [that improves their parses].
Compare that to the many players that joined in during WOTLK back in 2008/2009 (from 3 million during Vanilla, 8 million during TBC to around 12-13 million during WOTLK) many of which had never set foot or seen the “old content” before, little less done the past 17 years along with mashing it intensively the latest 2 years. Add the sensation of the new achivement system (then) and it isnt really hard to figure our why many were interested back in the days but couldnt care less about it today.
Lets waste time going to Mount Hyjal for nothing at all, when we infact hated doing it when it was current content the past year
Not like people are forced to be online for the sake of it and now have to fill that time no matter the cost (even tho some people act like it).
First of all hunter is or will be great for solo old raids etc in WOTLK. Just get 2set bonus from TBC and your pet will be unkillable. I did it before in WOTLK and it was so fun.
Second: buffing dmg would destroy most fun what WOTLK left for me. Because it is great to go there with 1-2 friends a do it like a challange. When we or I get stronger in game we can do more things or i can try solo it by my self. (even if i dont have good class for solo, damm i miss my old hunter). You can set a challange level by yourself with how many players will go etc. Running and killing everything with no problem is boring.
Soloing old content or do it with friends was always thing for me. When you, for example, progres from TBC to WOTLK it opened tuns of all new thing you are able to solo. Your “buff dmg” would destroy everything what I love about it just because you cant find a friend who wanna do it with you. And yes on 10k server there will be always people who wanna do it. You just didnt find them.
