reforging was an awesome addition to the game back in cata. would be a good addition to any version of the game
Bad troll 1/10 try again
pathetic to call someone a troll when you can’t even kill vashj/kael and play on some dead roleplay server.
TBC is objectively a bad expansion, cata was good and has many mechanics which can be implemented to make TBC closer to decent
RP server? shows how much of a troll you are, why I call you a troll is becouse there is no way at all that reforging could work with the low amount of stats in the game compared to cata… Dont embarace yourself any more.
a name like that can only be filled with degenerates, be it roleplayers or otherwise.
The difference in stats between cata and TBC are armor pen which was removed but mastery was added?
Cata is bad mate, dont try to copy it
Nah they added mastery but removed Attack power, spell power, armor pen and shield block. But I dont belive such a bad troll as you would take the time to look it up. They also removed MP5 and block rating completly from the game so it would be a much diffrent system from how it was. Now to just counter your personal attack, being named Summon clearly shows how much creativity you have, and playing on a defacto pve server (87.8% horde in your case) your self you shouldnt judge what servers others play on.
I’m certain that insulting portions of the playerbase will make people more sympathetic towards you…
Yes, armor penetration was removed in Cata, which I think was good anyway. I don’t remember how prevalent it was in TBC, but fury warrior dps was bonkers in ICC because of it. Having a dps stat that increases in value per point with the more you have of it is really stupid IMO, as it encourages a disregard for all other stats, even if an item otherwise would be considered to have perfectly appropriate stats and is of a higher item level.
Cata was better in so many ways. raids, pvp and dungeons were all superior.
So your point was there were more stats in cata yet you say there are vastly more in TBC.
You shouldn’t bring up creativity when you are clearly copying someones name when you have to resort to using a ì in your name.
yea the stat is very poorly designed, as is armor, but part of the gamebalance. warrior is basically garbage until icc as it’s not worht using until then
Yes I misspoke sorry for that.
Or I might have transfered from a server to another where I had Cupid and I wanted to keep it when I left that server? You can find logs from Vanilla classic where im named Cupid on stonespine and you can see that im not “copying someones name” and you can also try and find Cupid on Mirage and find that there is non that activly plays
You know how tnc pservers has reputation of short living? Well cata pservers pretty much dont exist, dont copy bad game.
afaik tbc, mop and legion are unpopular private servers despite being the objectively best expansions.
classic were the only remotely popular ones, tbc were obviously bad which we can clearly see why. wotlk is somewhat popular i think
Popluar dosnt = good first of all, and MoP wasnt good its only good compared to modern expansions (and for the pvp community), legion was almost good actually but they screwed up on a fair few things there as well, vanilla tbc and wrath are the purest versions of wow with cata comming fairly close to still being what the game was that made it great.
not really. every community aspect that made vanilla good was starting to be removed in classic (dungeon finder, xrealm pvp) aswell as making raiding easier and easier. LFR is just a result of the same mindse they had. That being said none of these systems are essential and it’s just blizzard repeating their mistakes which end up destroying large parts of the expansions.
MoP raiding and pvp was better than anything pre cata at least.
Regarding the topic; Reforging was a good system in an overall good expansion plagued with blizzard’s buildup of errors
They really didnt start to make it easier before wrath with the introduction of 10 man everything and normal mode/ heroic mode raids. With 25 man in the beginign of wrath being planed as the old diffuculty and then later moving on to 25 heroic being slightly harder than the old (that was the plan atleast).
That is true.
Depends on your mindset though I think, I enjoy the idea of having to build a team around buffs and debuffs difrent classes provide so im not a big fan of the "bring the player not the class idea that they started to really run with towards the end of cata and into mob. So for me the raiding got a bit worse than it was before cata eve.
That is true but it wouldnt work with tbc stats (and unlike I said earlier its becouse we have to many stats that do difrent things in tbc not the other way around stupid tiered brain) and with todays players it would just be turned into a pluague as well, a lot of people would not let people into pugs beocuse they dont have their gear reforged optimaly even if they have what normaly would even be considered almost bis.
Reforging was cut down in WoD. I enjoyed this feature in MoP (especially during preparations of twink for challenge mode gold runs, completed it on 5 characters and that gear from limited sources always has had stat balance problems) and Cata, but it really doesn’t belong to TBC.
Reforging is the mechanic where you have to look up your most valuable stat (to cap) and reforge your least valuable one into it, right? I remember back in Wrath my entire guild would use a gear optimizer that would calculate best gems and reforges for them, and they’d just copy in game what the program spat out. Fun mechanic. Would outsource gearing choices to app again.
(That’s sarcasm btw, reforging is a stupid mechanic)
you’re talking about gems. reforging didn’t exist in wrath
I looked it up and you are correct, it was added in cataclysm prepatch. Regardless, it’s still a terrible system and will just result in everyone (most people) just running a 3rd party app that will always spit out optimal reforges and gems for any given gear set available to them. In essence, it means the only number that matters will be ilevel of item, completely justifying gearscore addons and the like.
It’s a horrible change and has no business at all being in TBC and/or Wrath Classic.
Edit: now I thought about it some more and adding reforging is precisely the point of no return for “RPG gear”, every item with memorable name and look just turn into ilvl 187 hands, ilvl 205 chest and ilvl 213 trinket. It’s one of the things that made cata first wow expansion to lose player total.
Radical idea: If you don’t like TBC, don’t play TBC
