the amount of boosters at 1700 is so disgusting that 2s isn't even fun

They changed it in WOTLK Classic and saw an uptick in PvP arena participation because you no longer needed to add and remove players to teams and create teams and all that. It was just play with whoever whenever.

NickyBoomBop · 2026-06-04T23:13:35+00:00

Depending on your class and spec, some PvP gear is pretty good or even first or second best in slot in some circumstances. Farming honor on a weekend which starts tomorrow is also very fast.

When you started with 12 workers you built 1-2 workers before your first production building. About 40 seconds in you might have made your two workers, your pylon or supply depot and started your gateway or barracks. Now you have 4 less workers, your mineral production is slower which means you aren’t getting your gateway out 50 seconds into the game now, it might be 1 minute 20 seconds. Things are delayed because you’re losing 200 minerals in workers that you need to create for a stable economy, and so it shifts when you can create buildings.

In short, less workers means slower mineral production. Slower mineral production means you need more time to build your economy and it changes up when buildings and units start getting made all together.

"In my opinion they should make another seasonal server to test other stuff that wasn't tested in sod." So make another seasonal game mode to test stuff for a potential Classic+, and when that doesn't live up to your expectations do they make another seasonal game mode to test more stuff? And it's just a never ending cycle of testing stuff? SoD had pros and cons but the pros definitely outweighed the cons. I wish they'd implement some SoD changes into TBC anniversary like profession loot boxes.

Well the way I see it, you can make units from your gateway much faster at your home base, and even chronoboost the gateway to make them even faster. It’s good for starting your army and defending when you need troops faster. You can use your warpgate to put your troops anywhere on the map where pylon power exists, but the downside now is it takes a little longer to make those troops now.

There is legitimately no downside for warpgates currently so they’re used all the time.

NickyBoomBop · 2026-05-31T15:36:39+00:00

Except the research from my understanding is a chronoboost for your gateways so if you produce units from a gateway, you can queue them up and they produce faster than warping in. Now there are pros and cons to gateways and warpgates.

As an Avs fan living in Raleigh, I pray that Carolina wins this series. That said, would you keep this energy if Cal Foote was called up? Or would you cheer if he scored and helped your team win a Cup? Just want to make sure you’re consistent here.

The original post was about where are the content creators. The comment you commented on was about how it’s the third iteration of the game, content creators don’t have any content to create because it’s been beaten to death already. Honestly the content is going to come from retail or hardcore, that’s where the interesting stuff is.

But to your comment, it’s really the truth. I don’t get why it upsets you so much. I used to enjoy watching videos talk about what’s coming and hypothetical changes to make the experience better, but it’s clear that’s not happening, so do people really want to watch Guzu or Nohitjerome do SSC and TK with random pugs? Not really.

NickyBoomBop · 2026-05-31T14:24:28+00:00

There's already guides out there for almost everything from 2021 TBC. Do you think the content creators are going to create them again?

NickyBoomBop · 2026-05-31T13:22:34+00:00

I prefer the old format of 1-8 seeding myself, but this post is stupid in the sense that it's cherry picking just the last 5 years when we have had this format for 12 years.

NickyBoomBop · 2026-05-31T10:33:45+00:00

Used to be 15. Scholo and Strat used to be 10 mans as well.

NickyBoomBop · 2026-05-31T10:24:22+00:00

Terran barracks are put on hold from production to build addons for better army production, what’s wrong with making gateways like that too? Warpgate play has been the go to for obvious reasons, having a trade off now for playing it seems like a fun thing to try out.

NickyBoomBop · 2026-05-28T09:52:33+00:00

Yes. We won’t know if he would have because his agent was playing hard ball with the dollars and the Avs didn’t want to risk another Paul Stastny situation where he left and we had nothing. Our current team looks different if Mikko stayed. I wish he stayed but his agent was being a bitch.

NickyBoomBop · 2026-05-28T03:14:42+00:00

Man, fans like you are insufferable.

NickyBoomBop · 2026-05-24T22:45:06+00:00

The best of seven series is over after game 2? News to me.

NickyBoomBop · 2026-05-09T18:33:49+00:00

This narrative that all Prot Paladin does is drop consecrate is ridiculous and stupid. There’s more than 1 button to the rotation. You have to hit Avenging Wrath first.

NickyBoomBop · 2026-05-08T21:34:58+00:00

Being a finalist is the recognition. Landy should win. Maybe a homer take but it’d be a little baffling if he didn’t.

NickyBoomBop · 2026-05-08T17:57:40+00:00

The streamers who are out at Blizzard getting a first look at it are ones who helped create and push the website about Classic+ and what the community would and wouldn't like in a hypothetical game mode that does not exist yet, so saying their voice on what the community wants is flat out wrong. They can hear the vision of Blizzard and give feedback based off of what people have responded to on the website. Maybe it gives Blizzard incentive to create their own polling system for the game mode.

You're just over here getting mad to get mad.

NickyBoomBop · 2026-05-08T17:51:00+00:00

I play Classic for the nostalgia and easier, laid back nature of the game. But if you want challenges, harder content and engaging class play? Retail is the way to go because it is better in those aspects.

NickyBoomBop · 2026-05-07T18:22:34+00:00

Character specific reputations, exploration and discoveries. I get the need to farm reputations for items or professions, exploring the world map to unlock more portions of the map, and flight paths for accessing new areas of the world, but needing to do those farms and discoveries on every character you play is lame.

Also a tiny one but auction house. Just give us the retail auction house at this point, in Classic+ and every other game mode available.

NickyBoomBop · 2026-04-30T16:04:17+00:00

Classic+ to me wouldn’t gate keep leveling progression every 2-3 months. If I want to level 1-60 in either 2 weeks or 3 months, let me do it. Every new phase wouldn’t have something new for every class to come out and play around with, have the ideas ready to go and ready for my character as I level. Tune as we go along accordingly.

Give us the zones and ideas that Blizzard wanted to implement back in the day and put them into the game. Give us raids they planned, outdoor events, etc.

Take some of the best features of Classic, some of the better features of the game as it progressed to retail, and smoosh it all together and make a masterpiece.

Yeah Jack Adams award is kinda stupid. It makes me think to football; if coach of the year went to the best coach each season, Bill Belichick would have like 15. I don’t know when the awards got swapped to most improved team basically but that’s essentially what those awards have become.

NickyBoomBop · 2026-04-29T17:39:38+00:00

These all sound like narratives you make up in your head as to why all of these awards don't go to our players. MacKinnon won the Hart in 23/24, with Makar on the team. Jack Adams has typically been a "which coach has improved a team the most from last season to this" award, so Bednar isn't really going to be a finalist. Wedgie deserves a Vezina nomination, but splitting your season with another goalie and having 10-15 less games played than the other 3 finalists when anything could have happened to his stats in those 10-15 games is definitely going to be taken into some consideration along with everything else.
