vanilla servers are going to be botched so fucking badly it'll be hilarious
either people will go in with nostalgia bias and realize how far wow has come and much "better" it is now, or people will go in with nostalgia bias and blizz will have made vanilla servers simply "the vanilla zones but with current class fantasy"

and in the event that I'm wrong, vanilla servers will ultimately serve as yet another way to draw a divide between current players. I'm honestly not looking forward to the players who will give me, and others like me, shit that I'm enjoying the game in it's current state, and I'm sure people who play exclusively vanilla servers are not looking forward to other people giving them shit for being stuck in the past



that all said I'm looking forward to the expansion, and I'll definitely be switching over to a pvp-centric approach. maybe that'll last for only a little bit before I go back to raiding, but the trailer definitely got me hyped up for some pvp

I think my comments are justified based on “We want to reproduce the game experience that we all enjoyed from the original, classic WOW,"
they said explicitly that they want to reproduce the game experience, not the launch experience

It'll most likely be released at 1.12 The only thing we won't know is if all the content will be open from the get go or if it starts with mc and ony. In a perfect world it'll be 1:1 with the updated graphics, but we can dream.

In a perfect world it'll be 1:1 with the old graphics but higher resolution/screen support

Nope, they just announced that it was going to exist without really any more information.

my raid group is working through mythic argus atm

it's the final boss for Legion, so it's about that time where half of raiders unsubscribe until the next expansion again

here's the world first if anyone's curious about modern raid content

Has anyone heard of Project Ascension? You pick your abilities and talents and can attack the same faction members. There are endless builds. Players drop some gear upon death after a certain level.

I haven't tried it yet, I'd be down if anyone else is interested.

picked up wow again, and after upgrading a bunch of shit in my pc, I can p. safely say that bfa is a gorgeous xpac. zandalar almost makes me want to roll horde... almost

but it's been pretty frustrating so far. I don't think I have played a new xpac this close to release in my whole time playing wow, so idk if this is "normal" or whatever, but damn. I do remember having to run shit and wishing for good weapons and after spending nearly two years not needing to worry about weapon upgrades (relics don't count lol), going back to the weapon grind sucks.
also demon hunters got absolutely nerfed into the ground, holy fuck. I leveled as havoc ofc and while it took a bit to get used to the gcd change and the lack of leggos, it's still fun. but vengeance man, fuck me. it feels so bad to tank now that I have decided wholeheartedly that I'm swapping to another main.

I played warlock, priest, and DH as my mains through Legion so I probably won't play any of these three in this xpac, at least not anytime soon. I kinda want to roll a mage or rogue, but I've been spoiled by having access to instant queues and survivability.

funnily enough, now that my pc doesn't suck ass, I'm kinda excited to level from the ground up.

To my knowledge, dps DH is pretty strong right now; if nothing else they haven't been gutted like fury warriors were (sucks for me).

The weapon grind is absolutely miserable, it sucks especially if you're a dual wield class, and you have 0/2 good weapons. I'm supposed to be pushing heroic/mythic uldir in the coming weeks, but I'll likely be cut due to not having a good weapon which is tanking my dps. At least with relics it wasn't quite as dire, as long as you had good traits.

Rogues are in a really good place right now, same with survival hunter, if you're interested in that at all.

havoc feels much slower and rn I only have one set of talents that are viable at my gear level, the only talent I really have options for is my lvl 100 talent (momentum vs demonic and since I'm still on the grind doing wqs the leech you get in metamorphosis is too valuable)
I mean, yes it is strong but unlike a class such as warlock, I can't switch to another spec to break up the monotony, and the talent choices within havoc aren't flexible atm

I wouldn't mind playing anything but hunters are pretty low on my list
