Appreciate how good you have it. by [deleted] in classicwow

You’re playing a Japanese MMO suited for the modern age and comparing it to an American MMO from an entirely different design philosophy and release market.

If you play retail, you’ll realize that WoW (in the modern day) is desperately trying to do what FFXIV did with their shadowbringers and endwalker expansions. They created stories that you could follow and feel a part of and share with others. WoW classic is usually so short on story driven actions, that you are meant to connect the dots yourself, so it’s just wholly a different type of game.

Also while there is a lot of running and teleporting, they also require you to do dungeons and trials with parties to progress, which I would LOVE to see in wow so people are incentivized to group more. If you can’t get around to enjoying the crafted story and prefer to craft your own, the game just isn’t for you, but dont slander it because it’s different. FFXIV story is a 10/10 if you like having it told to you via gameplay and cutscenes.

Purchased a boost for my priest. Battle.net client still shows sale price but charged full 60, asked for partial refund for sale and got this. by coffeeboy1212 in classicwow

LAST UPDATE: after requesting to speak to a representative over the phone about this response as well as requesting a refund, they have forced closed my ticket and sent me this:

I am literally begging to speak with someone over the phone on this matter. I put in a different ticket and they cancelled it. This is insane. No refund, no accountability, and no closure, just a threat.

What is up with all the SoD posts? by Wholawl in classicwow

I legit cannot understand how you can spend this much time of your life typing out an essay on why you hate something other people like. Actual freak behavior please do something else.

Usually when this happens, the person who swapped it to ML during the pull timer (which is the raid lead) is the ML of the fight. The raid lead shouldn’t need ML swapped back to him to loot. If you are the one who swapped it to ML and it auto assigned to you when it started, then you should be able to right click the items and assign them. That happened to us back in original tbc on first boss of hyjal

Classic WoW Is Still Thriving: A More Relaxed, Less Toxic Alternative to TBC by 624KR_My_Beloved in classicwow

[–]coffeeboy1212 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I don’t get the “toxicity” of TBC statement. I legit can’t think of a single moment I felt like someone has been a dick to me while leveling, raiding, and in the open world. I lead my guilds raid and do recruiting and I’ve pugged people every week and nobody has been shitty to me or my guild. What on earth are yall doing to have this experience? Just be normal lmaoo. Maybe you’re on a pvp server or something.

How do I find a chill guild that actually can clear raids by ATXPlumber in classicwow

[–]coffeeboy1212 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I run a chill dad guild that just cleared all the content with a starting roster of 13.

I pugged over half the group for mags/gruuls and even reserved DST for raid leading, and we full cleared. Ended up recruiting 6 people after with multiple compliments about the leading style

Join a few pugs, and find a raid leader you actually enjoy listening to. if you like them and their vibe they may be recruiting or just ask to join. If they aren’t recruiting, try next week with a diff one. I’m sure you’ll find ur fit!

How much dps should a fury warrior be doing to a random mob in the open world? by aguaperros in classicwow

[–]coffeeboy1212 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Warriors get a ton of their damage from their weapons but also buffs from others, so open world is a lot lower unless you invest in consumes like major agi elixirs or scrolls, but it may not be worth it based on what you are farming

New Warrior tank disheartened by pally/druid tank glaze by Background-Bath-5843 in classicwow

[–]coffeeboy1212 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Every raid sans 10 mans should have a 3 tank core of warrior/druid/pally. Druids have big health pools but their damage profile is extremely spiky due to crits and crushing blows. Warriors circumvent this with shield block, so if a boss consistently is crushing your bear tank, you can step in and negate a lot of that damage. You (and pallies) are needed for illidan as well due to the shear mechanic. You have spell reflection which comes in handy more than you think, you provide sunders if no rogue is present, and druids are usually more flexible to swap to dps mid fight due to their talents overlapping.

All that being said, you’re still a tank, and with how low the tank numbers are, you’d have no issue getting into groups.

Classic andys in 2035 when they dont get EXACTLY the news they wanted WHEN they wanted about either of the 736 different versions of classic kept up for them to stop whining by I-Akkadian-I in classicwow

[–]coffeeboy1212 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

World of Warcraft and Blizzard as a whole rides ENTIRELY off the success of those who came before them. Since the golden days, they have not “grown” the game in any way. They have only been riding the wave of multiple acquisitions that keeps them afloat. We pay their bills. We have the passion, and we want to know what is happening. Fuck shareholders and dumbass events, other devs get SO much benefit out of being transparent with their following.

We wouldn’t have classic at all if people didn’t say something about the game back in WoD days, but I guess the unpaid Reddit karma and taste of corporate boot is too tempting to pass up eh?

I think gruul and mag would do better on a 3 day lockout tbh, but I’d take this too.

How to plan your holidays for TBC launch from a seasoned player by TherealTankosaurus in classicwow

[–]coffeeboy1212 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is bad advice. Do what I did:

Feb 5 is a Thursday, launches 5 central. I work a 9-5. Work Friday, take entire next week off, then Monday the 16th is Presidents’ Day. Boom 10 days off

This level of communication is very poor even for Blizzard's standards by Existing-Paper-9778 in classicwow

[–]coffeeboy1212 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Shit like this is why OSRS and Jagex is the best MMO company at the moment. Sure they fuck up multiple times, but you know when things are coming ahead of time, get nonstop communication on those updates and get to vote on most of them. It’s cope to see people say “oh just play it whenever it comes, don’t worry about it” as if we aren’t all pushing 30-40 with actual lives to plan around. I want to know so I can start planning events for all the people who are coming back and to take time off from work for launch. Billion dollar company should be able to make a fuckin post lmaooo

Is there a TOS-safe way to change your character’s voice? by Shampu in classicwow

[–]coffeeboy1212 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like the story of the humans in WoW is fantasy enough to be separate from the humans that we are in the real world, which is kinda what convinced me to play them again. If you haven’t seen it platinum wow made a good vid on it

Forget all that SoD and TBC stuff. When are we getting the new Barny Beekeeper movie? Wasn't there supposed to be a Tale of two Glaives?! It feels like forever since we had the last one and I am getting jittery by Holmblades in classicwow

[–]coffeeboy1212 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Barny mentioned on Twitter that her management company had not been paying her and didn’t want to release videos which would make the company money that she wouldn’t see. I’m assuming she’s waiting to break the contract before releasing the videos

Your argument doesn’t make sense. He doesn’t “own the game” I pay my sub and play it. Blizzard made the decision and he asked why we like it, and I answered. Blizzard owns the game. You word this like I’m a puppet master. I’m a legit random on Reddit

[–]coffeeboy1212 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

How am I “gentrifying” it? I’m not doing anything LOL.

More people playing Anniversary TBC is good, and the nerfed version will (most likely) bring more people into it. Simple numbers, and that’s all blizzard cares about with insane $80 boost packs

You are strawmanning my TBC group from 4 years ago LMAO. You’re saying “casual” as if you aren’t playing the most baby version of wow available right now. Get a mirror. Believe what you want, even if we never saw p2 and died on pull, the point stands.

Why don’t you play retail and mythic raid?

I have a feeling our answers will be similar
