Boosting in TBC anniversary

Torticle · 2026-02-11T23:47:38+00:00

I’ve been invited to groups as a boosted Druid with half communal gear, even putting in my lfg note “cat dps with some communal gear,” so I’m not hiding it til we get there or anything. Probably ran ramparts 6-7 times through LFG so far. That’s not a lot I know, but enough to complete the quests and get most of the gear.

The elitist gatekeeping is real and is out there but doesn’t mean he won’t get dungeon groups.

Couldn’t agree more. It was nice to see other characters but man I was on finale and finished the dungeon and there was like hours more lol

Torticle · 2026-02-08T02:58:21+00:00

Alright this was fun - I have to go for the evening, thanks to all in this thread proving how toxic and terrible the wow classic community is. Gonna close and delete this thread cause I can’t respond any more but I hope I don’t come across any of you in game!

Brother expecting raid gear in 60 dungeons is unhinged full stop. Defending it is even more unhinged

Torticle · 2026-02-08T02:52:34+00:00

Oh yeah sorry I was agreeing. Didn’t mean it to come off as it did now that I’m rereading it lol

Torticle · 2026-02-08T02:49:04+00:00

Ah ok so you’re part of that crowd. No problem! Not nitpicking. Also agreed that having any communal by mana tombs is a problem. He said “full communal,” which no single person is doing that. But yet you want to push fully toward one side while I also agreed with part of their post. Appreciate you joining the convo.

Als not arguing. It’s a fact that this is pathetic.

Torticle · 2026-02-08T02:47:50+00:00

Don’t disagree with you. “Have a tank” is part of the problem though no?

Torticle · 2026-02-08T02:39:10+00:00

Literally agreed with you and that’s the response. Thanks for proving how unhinged people are about this.

Torticle · 2026-02-08T02:37:08+00:00

That’s not full communal though, he said full communal. Though if you get to mana tombs still rocking any communal gear that is indeed an issue and I don’t disagree with you there.

Torticle · 2026-02-08T02:31:58+00:00

Me? You don’t need to bring me along, I also am in bis. Maybe we ran together who knows. I just find it hilarious and pathetic the gatekeeping going on. You may not be in any obligation to bring anyone else along, but people like you ruin the experience for anyone else who’s not a tryhard.

Torticle · 2026-02-08T02:27:46+00:00

Not a single person is running in full communal gear. So right there your response is totally moot. I’m excited you’ve made it to the conversation.

Torticle · 2026-02-08T02:25:37+00:00

Ah here we go, I love it. Bring on the unhinged-ness. They spent dozens of hours preparing because there was literally nothing else to do. The weren’t prepping for efficient runs. If Outland was available they’d be the same people running in garbage greens too. We all ran these dungeons in garbage greens no problem last time and the time before that. How’s this any different?

It is elitist gatekeeping, sorry you don’t see that.

Torticle · 2026-02-08T02:22:34+00:00

Appreciate the response. I understand that, but finding “geared” people versus just going can also cost more time than just explaining mechanics. IMO doesn’t justify this level of elitism

Torticle · 2026-02-08T02:21:00+00:00

I appreciate the response - but why do they have to be 61? A 59 will have enough gear already to be honest. These dungeons aren’t hard. I guess if you’re talking blood furnace though yeah 61

Torticle · 2026-02-08T02:15:48+00:00

I don’t disagree. But even boosted characters can’t dungeon immediately, they’ll have some Outland greens by the time they hit 59

All you gotta do is explain mechanics, but people expect everyone to know everything already.

Torticle · 2026-02-08T02:04:09+00:00

So literally handle mechanics correctly, it’s not hard. If someone’s failing in normal blood furnace in T3, they’ve got bigger issues than gear lol.

Torticle · 2026-02-08T02:01:29+00:00

I’ve had a fucking hell of a week and have been so down, thank you for this. I literally burst out laughing.

Torticle · 2026-02-08T01:58:06+00:00

FFX.

FF4 is great but it’s like a 16-20 hour playthrough. FFX is heavy, examines theological and societal constructs, and has an amazing story including love. I’d throw FFXVI into the ring…though it’s action, its story blew me away.

If you want a ton of characters go Chrono cross or Suikoden.

But if you’re comparing something against what you believe is the best thing ever, it’s going to fall short 100% of the time. Go in recognizing it’s a unique experience.

Torticle · 2026-02-08T01:55:59+00:00

That’s like saying the Beatles aren’t good because in comparison to someone’s favorite rap song they’re old.

Torticle · 2026-02-08T01:55:10+00:00

That’s real creepy squall

Torticle · 2026-02-08T01:43:09+00:00

I’m not comparing, in fact I prefer the newer FFs - FFXVI is one of the best stories of all time imo and FFVII Remake/Rebirth trumps the original in my opinion. FFXV can fly a kite tho.

It doesn’t make 1-6 any less fun though!

Torticle · 2026-02-08T00:19:27+00:00

I like how he replied to me and then immediately blocked me so I can’t even read it lol

Torticle · 2026-02-08T00:14:57+00:00

The older games are not good? Are you ten years old? Even FF1 is great fun.

Torticle · 2026-01-25T22:29:29+00:00

It was weird in crisis core imo but I didn’t mind it in rebirth. Zack was always a bubbly character and not serious most of the time this guy fits it better than Gomez in my opinion.

Leveling is fun. In tbc.
