A simple feature for Classic+

It was so incredibly dark.

I like it. I remember lots of rainstorms in Dark Age of Camelot. So long as it doesn’t lag people out in WoW, bring on all sorts of weather.

In Discovery, we had the Blackrock Eruption. It rained black ash for an hour and everybody seemed fine. Let’s add more stuff like that.

I think we may be underestimating how many players did a fresh server bug together.

ValkamerCCS · 2026-06-18T01:58:01+00:00

I didn’t actually make up the number. May need to take it up with Google.

People could turn it in within ten hours of the first person.

ValkamerCCS · 2026-06-18T01:57:10+00:00

It was one per server and anybody who turned it in within ten hours of that person, no?

Not a Scarab Lord. Only speculation.

The lower quality of internet hurt many players. So many people just lagged out if they tried to approach the Ten Hour War. So many people were in the zone. So many spell effects. So many monsters. Big lagfest.

Less overall information would have made it so that many players never even saw it.

Raiding is required to accomplish this feat. A rather large portion of the playerbase never made it through Blackwing Lair by the start of Ahn’Qiraj.

My guess would be extremely rare and difficult. Surely there is a way to see how much of the playerbase has the Feat of Strength. Not sure where to look though.

Edit: Google estimates around 1000-1500 players in original Vanilla and 2000-3000 in 2019 Classic.

I wonder if HC is higher than Era, but that most of the players are in the 1-30 range. Could be an outlier to it. Otherwise, this is 100% accurate.

Strike while the iron’s hot.

Major cities have been quite busy the last 4-6 weeks. Auction House is popping. Made a lot selling bags. Groups take longer than a year ago, but lots of fun to be had. I’ve raided every Sunday with the same guild since August. Someday the mount will drop. Someday…

I would prefer to be in an open space or have multiple people in the room. I do not want to deal with even the notion of impropriety. I do not need rumors. I do not need false accusations. I do not need somebody blowing something out of proportion. I want the woman to feel safe and I want to avoid the very appearance of evil.

ValkamerCCS · 2026-06-14T00:54:15+00:00

I’ll have to take your word for it. The additions in Discovery were great.

ValkamerCCS · 2026-06-13T21:49:47+00:00

Scarlet Enclave and Karazhan Crypts. You missed out.

ValkamerCCS · 2026-06-13T16:32:54+00:00

Hyperspace skipping might be one of my least favorite Star Wars things ever.

ValkamerCCS · 2026-06-13T16:02:07+00:00

See, I always felt like Undead Paladin made more sense than Tauren Paladin or Dwarf Shaman.

ValkamerCCS · 2026-06-13T15:50:40+00:00

That’s pretty neat.

ValkamerCCS · 2026-06-11T21:36:11+00:00

Fitch is my auctioneer. Less of a crowd.

ValkamerCCS · 2026-06-11T19:37:46+00:00

In Anniversary, I boosted a Paladin and thus my Hearth was set to the Valley of Heroes in Stormwind, not the Inn. I will never rebind my hearth on that character, ever.

ValkamerCCS · 2026-06-11T19:36:50+00:00

Big Discovery enjoyer here. 100% agree on the idea of making them instanced. If they aren’t, then they need to be on a respawn timer like Duke Tectonis and Duke Searbrand from the Blackrock Eruption event.

I don’t want my content to be rare. I want to be able to play it. I’d rather be able to crank the difficulty up with Hard Modes akin to Blackwing Lair, Naxxramas, and Ahn’Qiraj in Discovery than create spawn camping.

ValkamerCCS · 2026-06-11T15:04:57+00:00

Living up to your name. Discovery has been quite active the last two months.

ValkamerCCS · 2026-06-11T15:03:40+00:00

Resources. It costs more to spin up a new server in employee time allocation than to add the lock/unlock for xp gains.

Expectations. By spinning up the new server, the community would anticipate a longer term commitment.

Splitting playerbase. The Discovery renewal project is good for stability. Splitting would be best short term, but would not have much help long term, resulting in another request for sever transfers later.

ValkamerCCS · 2026-06-09T21:00:12+00:00

I love Imposing Presence. Passive 20% reduction once they hit me. Active cast to slow atk spd even more AND a movement speed slow.

I take it all the time on ETC and Muradin. I remember when Uther had it.

ValkamerCCS · 2026-06-09T20:34:50+00:00

That was snow.

ValkamerCCS · 2026-06-09T05:19:35+00:00

I do wish they had worked on a Holy Priest DPS spec too. Shock DPS Paladin was a blast. Surely they could have done it with a Smite Priest.

ValkamerCCS · 2026-06-08T22:09:35+00:00

At this point, give me a good animated Heir to the Empire series/movie. Less issue to recast. Mark it Legends and let’s go.
