I think official HC will have very few death

Bis gear from AH + unlimited amount fo health potions for your level that works as lay of hands.

WIth the addon you dont even have health potion at all time, you need to get luckey drops or find few from a vendor.

With the addon it is 0,5% who reach 60.

How high will this number be for official? I would not be surprised if its 10-20% with these changes.

In order to buy stuff from the AH, people need to be selling it, assuming the HC AH is disconnected from the regular AH, there simply won’t be that much on offer to buy.

But that bis gear need to come from someone, right? So first you need some geared lvl 60’s to actually farm that gear. Good luck with that :slight_smile:

what do u mean? bots will be 60 in a week flyhacking stratholme and dire maul and will flood the market with every consume and item

Alchemy can make all the pots needed cheap

I doubt so. Bots are pretty effective levellers simply because they can play 24/7. But they are very bad “players” and the die quite often.
I think bots will be the least problem on the HC servers, but let’s see - I might be wrong :slight_smile:

nope, they just run 5 bots together in 1 party so its impossible to die.

You still have Herb/Alch with addon too. Why you say such bosh?

Added: Plus the addon crew know all vendors, all rares and elites and what drops. Plus addon crew use other addons too - they are proffs, doing eeasy mode and straight way to 60.

I bet you are one of those SSF hardcore players who use countless addons and Waekaura and let RXP show you the easiest way to 60 with a purchased guide. I can only laugh at you :joy: Want to tell others what real hardcore is and make the game as easy as possible with addons.
It should generally ban all addons. So that people like you can not cheat with purchased addons like RXP, but at the same time tell others they are not hardcore

If you say healing potion is not hardcore enough, but at the same time use addons which show on the map where dangerous enemies are and also automatically takes them into the target and marks them so you do not miss them. Then you are unfortunately an idiot. And this is what the most “true hardcore players” do :joy:

You are extremely naive if you believe this.

First run through is going to be great. After 1 month the server will be soiled.

Have fun while it’s there. It’s my intention.

But HC is personal challenge. How can others “cheat” soil anything for you? and even more all server? Won’t be soiled for me. And I sure expect to spend over one month getting to 60. Not much time and slow leveller :slight_smile:

On official servers it’s not going to be a personal challenge. Every time you group with another player who has access to AH, trade and mail, AKA, optimised gear, the world is trivialised just a little bit more. The HC experience is a little bit less. After a month when bots are working like a well oiled machine all integrity will be gone. Cheap bags, plenty of low level greens. It will kill the spirit.

I’ve come to accept it for what it is. First run through will be fun. After that… who knows. Hopefully my doom and gloom predictions will be all wrong, but certain in depth researchers who have contact with bot services and post their vids on Youtube have shown us that the bot market is eyeing HC with a great focus.

I’ve said before, the addon destroyed any chances of bots soiling the experience, and it’s why it has lasted so long. You struggle. You die. You learn from your failures and you go again. As for official servers, without any kinds of restrictions, I believe it’s popularity will diminish rapidly because of how trivialised it will be.

I think without the chance to appeal your death on the official servers will also play a big part towards its demise. First month or so will be the wild west and should be some good play!

Yeah, well I say as so often before: We must agree to disagree.
My achievements not lessened because most other players in HC server “cheat” as I see it. I play IronMan Challenge, and all using potions, green gear, buffs and dungeons, play easy mode for me. Has been like this since 2012, and maybe is why I not bothered by others bot an cheat and do easy mode. I used to it and my achevement still same.

And I much look forward to official HC server, with no cheat on die and no PvP if you not really mean it, and all free to do personal challenge.
Maybe I wait one week or two to start, as what you describe as wild west is not my type of fun … so again we disagree.

Edit:
And once all the wannabe elites have raced to 60 (“won” the game :rofl:) - or died and ragequitted - then we can play real Hardcore for long time on official servers.

I agree with Thalissa. I don’t get why people are complaining about the lack of restrictions on the official servers.

If you don’t like the auction house, don’t use it. If you don’t want to group up, don’t. Make it as hard for yourself as you want. Other people’s activity is irrelevant when you’re doing an essentially solo levelling challenge.

Play it your way and enjoy it :+1:

In Era AH’s are not connected, so go back to refail.

If I play I will have an AH character I keep in a city forever and store everything I want to sell on it, some won’t do this and lose all their gold and items the have on the AH if they die.

btw I can’t post on my Classic character due to the forums not recognising characters with the same name on the same realm on Era and Wrath.

I hope your personal challenge doesn’t include addons and certainly not ones like RXP that show you the easiest way step by step. This is much worse than a few greens from the AH :wink:

What personal challenge?

Did you quoted and answered to yourself? :laughing:

As others have said, there will be no doubt the bots will be no clipping and fly hacking to reach 60 with ease to farm anything people need - just as they are on Classic era right now.
