How's the faction balance in classic now? I heard the Alliance were getting farmed on pretty much every server when the honor system came out and it was leading to a lot of people quitting altogether. Have things changed?
I had a 60 gnome warrior on Whitemane and a 30 undead mage on Sulfuras.
How's the faction balance in classic now...
play on Grobbulus. Balanced faction ratio and nice community.
Lel nobody even plays this trash anymore
Cata servers when?
My server has 1.5hr+ queues every night and it's not even considered "full"
What server?
Sulfuras. Nvm I just checked and it's listed as full
is it too late to get into it?
Do what this user says You're not forced to RP, but the emphasis on it makes the playerbase more chill and less competitive.
yea. 16 years too late
>got my rogue to lvl 60 a few weeks after release
>no content, no friends to play with, end up stopping playing

>autism makes it hard to pick up again with a character I haven't played in that long
>playing anything that isn't undead rogue feels just wrong
I think my server was 60-40 imbalance for horde too, which makes it shit to play. I'm almost considering starting a new character just to see if I can get into that WoW "mood" again.
I just can't stand starting a horde character
>start a new character
>nobody is partying for elite quest
>dungeons are all paid rushes
welp
Don't bother. Levelling is great but min maxing parse trannys who never played vanilla ruined being level 60. No one does dungeons and there's huge bg queues and premades everywhere
>>dungeons are all paid rushes
Goddamnit, is this zoomer shit still going on? Have blizzard at least patched the gay "dungeon cleave" garbage? Nice "vanilla experience" that was
I wish this was true. Can't even log into my server
>>dungeons are all paid rushes
Like paying a higher level? How much gold do they expect you to have on a fresh character?
ally gave up on pvp servers and fled to pve or heavily ally stacked pvp servers. I play on a pve server for the most part, and the amount of pvp refugees looking for mara runs is atrocious. They expect that shit for free, like them ranking when they're finally max level somehow helps me. I had one dude actually ask how he's supposed to get to max level if someone didn't boost him. The fuck is wrong with pvpers? You want shit then you gotta pay, what fucking world do they live in? It's 12g for you, same as everyone else. Sometimes I get a dozen whispers in a single run and most of them are too autistic to understand that if I'm in the middle of my pull I'm not gonna respond. Battlegrounds haven't changed much in the last few months either. if you're smart you have a premade, if you're not then the horde wins because ally gives up within the first five minutes.
Wow Classic is fucked, if you don't know someone who has a good guild hookup then you're boned. Everyone who cares about ranking seriously got geared up months ago, so good luck beating a BWL geared rogue in full blues.
>but min maxing parse trannys
That's probably the worst part. What kind of retard need all buffs for MC? I could understand "server's first" guilds and maybe some gay "speedrunners", but most Classic guilds are like that.
on my server it's 2g per stockades
5g per SM (all 4)
15g per Mara one pull
how does anyone even play this anymore i lasted 2 weeks after getting to 60 theres literally nothing to do
Is there anything left in this game that hasn't been minmaxed yet?
They expect you to be an alt whose main can afford it.
Not really
Alliance rarely wins AV so they are babies and dont queue leading to an hour and a half queue times
the long queue filters out the shit horde players and there's nothing to filter the shit alliance players. amazing how on private servers it wasn't so one-sided because ally players could actually pvp
>there's nothing to filter the shit alliance players
This is a painful truth.
>not being an officer
>not farming BWL
>not in guild premades 12 hours a day minimum
>not exalted with wsg, ab and av within a week
>not being rank 10 or higher by now
Sucks to be you anti-social ass clowns. Maybe if you weren't such retarded pussies and actually talked to people you can get into the game. but no, you're all to pathetic for that. Go back to retail, fuckheads.
>so they are babies and dont queue
There are no Alliance players to queue, user. You guys told them "go to a PvE server if you want to play" and they actually listened.
>calls others anti social
>plays wow 12 hours a day
Already did that 15 years ago. What's even your point?
>can't even talk to people in an MMORPG
You didn't do a fucking thing.
I've got BWL on farm (got nef's tear to drop finally), but I can't understand the pvp grind. A friend of mine is going for r14 and had to pull a couple 24 hours this week and it's making me worry. No one should do that, it's not fucking healthy.
If anyone is interested in a TBC server that is pretty active try Light's Vengeance. It's a PvE server which is honestly better for TBC imo, because there are still world PvP objectives and with flying mounts and the usual horde imbalance PvP servers turn into shit shows. Lots of people are doing 60-70 instances and I haven't had trouble getting groups as dps. People have been talking about getting battle grounds going so hopefully the community will set up times where both factions queue up. From what I've seen so far the scripting is second only to the Atlantiss Netherwing server.
EXP rates:
Alliance Vanilla races:
1-10 --> 1x
10-58 --> 1x-4x
58-70 --> 1x
Instant 58 available from level 1
TBC races & Horde:
1-20 --> 1x
20-58 --> 1x-4x
58-70 --> 1x
Instant 58 available from level 20
Yes I am shamelessly shilling but I really am having a good time there and would like to see the server grow. I hope some of you will check it out!
I tried to get into the hardcore scene, but I got tired of dealing with spergs like you all the time.
>Cata servers when?
zoomer detected
No thanks. I'll wait for the official classic BC servers in november
It's a sperg game, retard. It's literally a requirement if you hope to do anything endgame.
No thanks. I'll wait for a good expansion like wotlk
Game is piss easy, my passive-aggressive transsexual friend. My guild cleared AQ40 with several women and a literal sub 80IQ borderline hunter (brother of one of the officers). And that was before boss nerfs and 1.12 talents of your baby version of the game.
>It's a sperg game
Classic is a sperg game. Vanilla was for normalfags.
i would like to play firelands before you outgear it , but i'm not the one asking
its 1.5 av on private servers, blizzard is using 1.12 av
My server still has regular dungeons, at least while leveling. Sure, there are paid runs, but I've done SM, RFK, SFK, Gnomeregan and even BFD the regular way relatively recently, and I've also talked to people busy with RFD.
Save yourself the trouble and just play PvE. PvP servers do not work with the retarded ass server caps Blizzard implemented it's basically the same horseshit as private servers. Blizzard is beyond retarded for not sticking with the same server caps vanilla had this game is not meant to handle as many players as many servers have.
>Sucks to be you anti-social ass clowns.
>It's a sperg game, retard. It's literally a requirement
so... well adjusted or a sperg? do you have to be both in some way? a sperg whisperer?
WHOA you cleared AQ40!!
HARD FUCKING CORE BRO!
Vanilla was literally designed to be the casual mmo when it came out. Stop talking about shit you apparently know nothing about.
Personally I played WOTLK so much that I feel no need to go back to it even though I enjoyed it. During TBC I was too young and had a shitty computer so I couldn't do everything I can do now.
I literally told you the game is piss easy. Take your meds.
grob is an awful server, literal reddit-tier
Nothing casual about waiting 2 months for your first epic in BWL and absolutely nothing casual about farming r14. You don't even know what these things are.
>paying $15 a month just to raid log
do blizzcucks really
>investing time is hardcore
wew lad
No. You can get into it anytime. It might be a little tough to get into a guild that has raid spots for you, but shouldnt be that bad. You should honestly just play something else though. Its not a very good game, but i admit its addicting.
lmao """""""""pvp"""""""" servers aka everyone pile on the one alliance guy trying to quest are a fucking joke. Just roll pve because this shit game was never designed for any sort of pvp balance ESPECIALLY when it comes to faction
After playing vanilla on private servers so much I didn't want to pay $15 a month to play it again. I would rather play official TBC servers but I don't know if I will since half the fun of TBC is taking your vanilla lvl 60 there...
Epic bro! You can clear a raid! /clap
So fucking amazing!
Is this post satire? I really can’t tell.
this, it was good in the beginning because of horrigan and the enclave but reddit couldnt stand anything fun so they got blizzard to ban them
see
damn man, save some pussy for the rest of us. fuck!
no youre too late, the only ones left playing by this point are minmax autistics who somehow have fun doing the same 2 raids over and over again to see their numbers go up so they can do the same 2 raids again
PvP servers were fine back in retail vanilla and TBC because there was more faction balance and people did wpvp without just mercilessly ganking at the flight paths 24/7. I don't know how you could put up with a PvP server these days with hour queue times for horde and getting dog piled 24/7 as alliance.
I never said I raidlog, I just don't push rank. Anyone who's at all competent at videogames is current with Classic content. Even the sleepy boomer guilds on my server have cleared BWL, that's just where everyone is.
Based.
Retail faggots are getting pissed at you.
>I never said I raidlog
so what else do you do then, afk on the if bridge?
>checked my guilds discord channel after 5 months of not playing wow classic
found out everyone disbanded because of drama bullshit
this is why i hate MMOs
Boy, I can't wati for BC classic and Bloodelves dropping allypop to 1% of the playerbase.
You just said you don't play the game, so why would anyone want a deadbeat like you in their guild anyways? You're literally worth less than nothing weather your guild disbanded or not.
some people are playing because they enjoy the company of their guild you know.
I sell solo runs, pvp, dungeons, collect mounts, pets, wpvp when it's happening. I'm looking forward to tiger farm when ZG comes out. Real heroes afk in front of the SW tree, best place to sell ports after the head drops.
I might make the switch to undead myself, ally has a very high pop of full blown autists.
Its never really a bad time to get into it, just do some homework on the server youre joining so you dont end up playing on a 5% faction
theyre also taking light's hope character transfers
so youre paying $15 a month to sit in a glorified chat room?
>Nice "vanilla experience" that was
What exactly was stopping people from doing this in """real""" vanilla, granpa?
Is Alliance really that bad in Classic? In vannilla mostly retards, soccermoms and little kids played alliance, which led to lopsided servers with something silly like 70/30 Ally/horde ratio, yet Horde stomped Alöliance in every bg/open pvp except Av. Today it seems horde stomps everything everywhere.
not having tbc pre patch shit i guess
where do I find cool solo videos like faxmonkey and hunter vs world, but current? surely there must be someone out there who's started experimenting
youtube is a non-starter, any wow-related search just turns up a blank after I got an extension to remove any assmongoloid videos, it's ridiculous how hard they're pushing him
On the one hand it's sad because I enjoy alliance, on the other hand it's nice to see all the autistic human male players get their shit pushed in for good.
>I sell solo runs, pvp, dungeons, collect mounts, pets, wpvp when it's happening.
do you actually get enjoyment from doing chores?
>You couldnt solo clear dungeons until 1.12
>Mages couldnt use blizzard before 1.12
Okay lets just get you back in your rocker and put up Bonanza while the kids play video games
this is the only correct answer. All the people running around in epics, every fifth or so warrior has a sulfuras/thunderfury really ruined the game for me.
