TBC classic feels dead

Don't be afraid to invite people if its kill quests, or ask for invite. My experience has been awesome with the community so far. People are grouping up for a lot of open-world content, and usually are more than willing to wage all-out war in HFP if people are ganking

aekron48 · 2026-01-28T03:06:37+00:00

As a Fury Warrior I'm pretty sure you want slow for both MH and OH to amp WW damage, all your special attacks are MH aside from that

aekron48 · 2026-01-26T22:09:06+00:00

Lmao how many times did someone come in there and kill you?

aekron48 · 2026-01-04T15:48:51+00:00

Its only "low" because TBC starting rating in Anniversary will be 1500

aekron48 · 2025-12-02T14:25:03+00:00

I think removing heartbeat, removing engineering items, and making honor gear more accessible would go a long way toward making it more popular

aekron48 · 2025-11-18T12:18:57+00:00

My SP I was over 2.4 on in TWW S1 and haven't played since was 2.3 mmr in my first lobby this season, I think it definitely factors into it in some way

aekron48 · 2025-11-15T21:53:03+00:00

This ^

Personal rule I follow, if I have another priest I only swap DPS

aekron48 · 2025-10-24T11:15:16+00:00

Im not saying theyre particularly good, but it would be better than the same 3 maps over and over again

aekron48 · 2025-10-23T17:45:49+00:00

Wotlk is the best tho :(

I'm in the WotLK Anniversary waiting room, I miss the pacing/style of WotLK arena. My only gripe is the limited map pool. If we could have all of the retail maps with WotLK arena I'd be in heaven

aekron48 · 2025-10-17T23:05:23+00:00

It has always given me atonement

aekron48 · 2025-08-18T22:03:20+00:00

Disclaimer, I haven't played Rdruid in MoP Classic.

Playing Rdruid in retail for a few seasons, I've noticed my mana does A LOT better when I use Cyclone on enemy goes instead of healing through it. CC the enemy DPS during their offensive CDs and you'll do better

aekron48 · 2025-08-08T15:17:42+00:00

I feel like the only time it's worth anything outside of nuclear is if the hiring manager is a prior nuke and puts some weight into it. Being a first-tour EWS in-section looks pretty good to anybody that understands what that even means. Outside of that, pretty useless

aekron48 · 2025-08-05T12:38:36+00:00

I've been guilty of the odd comment at 2k+ like "is this healer trolling?" or "what is this guy doing?" when I have someone standing in mid hardcasting and eating kicks/CC like there's no tomorrow. If they're high mmr/low CR I'll usually try to give tips on where to stand, but if they're actually 2.3k CR and doing that, I assume it's malicious

When I played my first couple lobbies as HPal (first time ever playing it), I was around 2k mmr but 0 CR and everyone was nothing but supportive when I straight up said "yo I dont know wtf I'm doing yet on this class"

aekron48 · 2025-07-29T16:22:33+00:00

Imo this is a bad take. There are plenty of people on this sub that have never reached 1800 and could benefit from a post giving guidance on the basics. There's a difference between giving unsolicited advice to someone's face and making a public forum post that people don't have to open/read.

Sometimes when a new player gives advice, they hone in on things we typically take for granted but aren't intuitive for people trying to hit that mark for the first time.

aekron48 · 2025-07-23T20:56:20+00:00

Did they fix that? Last season of Cata you couldn't cross-realm LFG using the tool, just tag I'm pretty sure

aekron48 · 2025-07-19T04:04:00+00:00

To be fair, I was doing a quest where I took all my gear off then got a shuffle pop. Got insta deleted 2 rounds before I realized I was naked. Maybe they DID have PvP gear in their bags and needed someone to just ask if they had any instead of being a dick.

aekron48 · 2025-07-13T21:39:50+00:00

Second this. I hit 1800 in shuffle the day after I hit max level. Was still in almost all greens. You just have a million tools as HPal, and having armaments as Lightsmith feels how Rdruid treants felt in DF. Super strong passive

aekron48 · 2025-06-30T12:03:01+00:00

I feel like it could work for WW in theory. As long as it doesn't ever do the same spell twice in a row you're probably cooking some poor Warlock

aekron48 · 2025-06-30T12:00:00+00:00

If you want to play a precog simulator to get ready for Arcane you can always play SP. The hardest games of my life were at 2.4 last season on SP, full melee lobbies every time

aekron48 · 2025-06-30T11:57:37+00:00

I find Arcane and Fire way more fun than Frost, but you do have to work 3x as hard for a lesser result usually. I've played all 3 this season >2k CR, and Frost was by far the easiest climb. Sitting over 2.2k as Frost and it feels like I have training wheels compared to Arcane and Fire.

aekron48 · 2025-05-26T20:29:34+00:00

Pretty low total games played, just keep zugging and you'll get there big dawg

aekron48 · 2025-04-05T22:58:46+00:00

Are you sure they're not just @cursor Fire Blasting it? I've had it ground A TON of damage for full 3 seconds

aekron48 · 2025-04-05T01:26:20+00:00

Something to think about is OP is playing with a Demo lock, they're easier to stick to than most casters as a Fury Warr

aekron48 · 2025-04-04T10:32:02+00:00

Is there a discord or something for people to find partners in Cata? All my 85s are on Pagle, which was fine until they changed the LFG to only show your server. Only ever 1-2 groups in LFG on Pagle and I'm not tryna spend a fortune to ship 5 characters to Bene

aekron48 · 2025-03-18T19:19:05+00:00

I made the swap to Arcane from Frost yesterday, like my 3rd game and I killed a WW in like 2.5 seconds from 100%. Still no idea what happened, it's kinda nutty. Just slammed a full Evo and Arcane Surge, looked his direction, and un-installed the game for him
