I am aware, I mained it back then too.

Also Impact (I think) was the most useless spell, jolt did more damage.

I remember this too, god I hated it so much.

i tried for a long time to see how i could weave impact into my rotation because the spell effect was great. but it was just not worth the hassle with its lower damage and lower mana generation

it wasnt even just that, because it did suck having to keep archer levelled for a key aggro management skill, but just how…odd some of the combinations were. i get levelling gladiator and conjurer for a paladin but what link did black magic even have with bows and arrows. daoudae1-9e1

Raging Strikes.

Getting Raging Strikes on black mage.

That’s it, the only reason I levelled archer.

Before I dumped black mage for arcanist because I liked it better.

Just remember to partake in the real world at times in addition to the imaginary world, to remind yourself that you live in a complex world.

sad state of affairs when the book mage became more interesting than the litteral hell mage.

oh what am i saying, endwalker repeated that. primals baby

6813

I think the book mage IS the hell mage.

Also; one thing i do miss–

me as NIN “This is where I would put my interupt. IF I HAD IT”

(forever salty they removed nin interupt in pve)

It’s so funny that Warcraft 3 Refunded has had ranked play through player-created mods before official development. And it has ranked play also for select custom games.

It probably works better than w/e the official one is too. :crazy_face:

We’ll sadly never get back the various custom map communities that existed, since many maps didn’t make a transition over to Refunded. Either due to them no longer being developed or because the creators refused to update them in Reforged since that would mean all ownership of their content was now Blizzards.

Half the map library was already lost years prior to a bug in a patch they did for old Warcraft 3 that changed a string in the world-editor(that they couldn’t fix after because the change was permanent or something), and then the other half was lost with the update.

It’s honestly kind of wild to see an update that is actually worse than changing nothing at all.

At least with custom campaigns you could have some of the cool people who make the StarCraft campaigns (there are some great ones like Mass Recall which lets you play SC1 missions in the SC2 client, and the UED one should be really good when that gets out of development hell) start work on things like WC1/2 Reforged

It’s still so puzzling just how much of a screw-up it all is.

The only thing that was done for the better was Battle.Net integration. Even the model/graphic update didn’t work as planned since alot of the models looked worse.

Also it would not have been nearly as bad if it had been an option/separate game. I still can’t get over how anyone thought it was a good idea to kill off the original Warcraft 3 for this. Instead of just letting it be.

I feel bad for the devs who clearly wanted to put effort in - updated Stratholme and Sunwell are both fantastic - but weren’t given the time or budget to do it.

Ah well. We still have GiantGrantGames who managed to do the entire game without losing a single unit, the mad lad
