Re: World of Warcraft

I've been playing on a vanilla private server lately. Made a warrior, biggest mistake cuz leveling is boring af, but it's so worth it at 60. Give Kronos a try if you've been thinking about getting back into WoW, but don't wanna give money to see if you'd like it. You really end up appreciating how much faster it is to level in retail.

I can't support Kronos, they DDOS'd Qgaming and ruined that server when it was at its peak. Literally was an A+ server with like 4000 players and Kronos got jealous they were providing better content with no crap donation garbage, so they ruined the server.

Screw KRONOS... Honestly, screw private servers. I've had great times on em, but obviously they don't last forever.. Nostalrius shutdown, they all come and they all go.. Kronos gonna be no different, unfortunately.

Re: World of Warcraft

Any word on if the new "pre-patch" will also cut down the experience required to get from 90-100? I believe they did something like that for Cata and MOP (That cata 84-85 was brutal for Twilight Highlands)

Also, is it true the Demon Hunter becomes accessible?

EDIT: I looked up the patch notes, and see the Demon Hunter will be accessible, AND that it will have a Tank specialization????? Really?

Re: World of Warcraft

dh dps is supposedly pretty badass, can't find any info on where they rank against other classes. but from the fury warrior vids I've been watching, I have no need to ever play dh because fury dps in legion is nuts.

the tank spec is actually awful. it was an afterthought and it doesn't seem like many people enjoy playing it

Re: World of Warcraft

So I see they are leather wearers, so basically the same as Druid Tanking then. Except druid tanks are beast lol

I'm curious to see how the tank spec works because my main role is tanking. We'll see.

I've heard IMMENSE hype over the damage they do though.... Still pretty upset that they start out at level 98 and you have a starting area like the Death Knight... Would have loved leveling them up from 1-100.

Re: World of Warcraft

seems like pally tanking is going to be still be complete garbage in legion.
prot warrior has a few changes that seem iffy to me, supposedly the rage you can generate passively is linked to how much damage you take/how much health you have. I think this should be an alright system but I'll have to tank some stuff on tuesday night with my guild to get a feel for it.
I just looked up a vid about dh tanking and it seems to be way better than the last time I checked. still doubt that I'll ever play it though. and honestly the thought of playing a demon hunter makes me feel like I'm encroaching on memelord territory. ebin demn hunteres !!
dk is still dk lol
and guardian druid is apparently really sick but it's a druid and I won't ever play one again.

it's likely that I'm gonna be maining a warrior throughout legion

druid tanking is really fucking good in legion

I've been watching some preach vids, this one seems to be pretty cool.

they were initially designed to be a pure dps spec so yeah it makes sense that they'd wreck face

Re: World of Warcraft

I've always had a soft spot for Pally/DK Tanking. Wrath of Lich King was absolute to have a Pally Tank and ever since then I rocked it out. Until WoD that is because it fell off HARD.

I leveled my warrior to 100 for Legion so I'll be sure to indefinitely utilize him since from what I've read around is that Warriors are going to be 2nd best behind Druids in the form of tanking.

Apparently, the order from "best" tank to worse is going to be:

Druid -> Warrior -> Demon Hunter -> Death Knight -> Paladin

That's such a god damn shame. But, i DEFINITELY agree with DH's being memelord terriroty holy shit

EDIT: I'll be watching that video tonight once i'm finished up streaming/playing my challenge game, thanks for the link!

EDIT2: I didn't include monks merely because there is a lot of talk over them recently.

Re: World of Warcraft

Don't forget to add Monk in there behind Paladin

Re: World of Warcraft

protip: if you got old pre-cata shirts, those sell for a ton now and probably more in legion cause they'll be BoE shirts that you can add to your wardrobe and there are only so many of those before they're all gone. I have 9 of the old shirts now (with 3 doubles so 12 total) and I see them going for 30k up to 100k if not more on some other servers. I expect the prices will only rise in Legion with the wardrobe and limited supply since many players threw them away or deleted their old low level alts.

You can easily buy a heroic archi carry or two if you got one of those shirts.

If you plan on selling the shirts, be sure to unequip them before legion hits cause if you have them equipped during the update, they'll automatically be bound to you.

lmfao really?

I have a bank alt FULL of just shirts. Mostly the Horde-only shirts because I was Alliance.
I bought them because I thought it was funny, and I tried to control the cosmetic items market of the AH on my server (and I did a damn good job of it, to the point where literally anyone who wanted Sulfuras had to go through me to get the hammer, etc.)

It's hilarious to think my bank alt is sitting on many millions of gold now because of my shirt collecting
I might have to log in just to see if I can turn my shirts into some real world $$$ once the update hits


EDIT- wow apparently the character starting shirts got removed thats lame
Okay so I guess my shirt collection is a lot less than it used to be. Oh well, still have some rare ones like the Sleeveless T-Shirt but RIP

EDIT 2- or were they made no longer available but not removed in which case I am sitting on a lot of like, Undead starting character Thug Shirts that nobody can get since Cataclysm lmao

Hence my EDIT2 I made in my post :P

I do want to play the game, just not on a garbage private server that actively tries to kill the game.

Re: World of Warcraft

Wow Preach Gaming has the Ranking of the tanks as (Best -> Worst)

Best - Guardian Druid -> Blood Death Knight -> Vengeance Demon Hunter -> Protection Warrior -> Protection Paladin -> Brewmaster Monk


That's very interesting to see the changes they've made to the Death Knight. I've always loved the DK, but have hated the reputation it has had. Though, I don't know how I feel about the 2 talent rotation.... It was always based upon mitigation, still will try it out though along with DH and Druid Tanking
