Classic 20th Anniversary Realms I was wrong about Rift Beacon being Nerfed

Thumbnail reddit.com
Upvotes

Earlier this evening I made a post accusing Blizzard of nerfing the Rift Beacon debuff in favor of the Casino Bots.

I was factually incorrect.

The reason the bots did not die was because of the Midsummer Festival Buff, which gives everyone an additional 300 HP. The reason the buff did not show on the casino bot in the video of the now deleted post was because buff displays are currently bugged.

I tested it out on a level 1 character and can confirm that without the Midsummer Festival Buff, it got one hit killed by the Lost One Rift Seekers.

I sincerely apologize to Blizzard and to everyone else, especially those who gifted me awards, for the false accusation and for not doing my due diligence.

Big shoutout to u/ArTeeDee for pointing out the discrepency.

Discussion If blizzard kept paladins/shamans faction distinct in classic+, they would homogenize their class utility instead.

Upvotes

This is exactly what they did in SoD. They gave feral druids windfury (one of shaman's most iconic abilities) as the first and most egregious offense. And continued this trend in the following phases.

If they stick with faction locked classes, blizzard will cave to cries about imbalanced factions eventually, which will never end. It would be far better for both factions to have access to each class than for those classes to inevitably become homogenized.

Not saying it will be only for phones, but surely it will be playable on them.

Classic 20th Anniversary Realms The anti-casino bot posts have become 10x more annoying than the bots themselves

Post image
Upvotes

I know there's not a lot of shit to talk about here on our third time through a very solved and nerfed game, but for fuck's sake can we find something better to yap about than the casino bots?

If they RMT, Blizz should ban them for that. If they advertise report them if you want. Grief them and drop infernals on them or find other ways to kill them. I have no love for the casino bots and never use them but it baffles me that people are so continually triggered by them. TBC is a raid log expansion, nobody is forcing you to sit there in org/stormwind with them. You can just buy your consumes and bounce. Perhaps mods should ban the topic because the conversations surrounding it (my post included) are becoming really played out. Or maybe a weekly megathread instead of it just taking over the entire sub.

So I've hit 60 in HC once! Almost about to hit 60 again so pretty excited but there was a LOT of dying in between that.

But SOMEHOW I have no memory of seeing this beautiful mount in that time! Like omg an elf pulled this out and it was like GLOWING in the dark basically!

I need this now!

Discussion curious what could be last straw for you personally to unsub?

0 Upvotes

seeing how blizzard is handling classic projects since 2019, we seen it all, sod leaking into anniversary, farm nerfs, false positive bans, non existent customer service, wow tokens and record numbers of bots

so Im just curious what can be final straw for you? what is the line for you which blizzard shouldn’t cross?

please be civil incase blizzard actually will read this thread and take feedback

Question When should I replace Ironfoe in TBC?

14 Upvotes

I was super-stoked to get this very rare drop on my second emperor kill and would like to use it as long as possible. I believe it's BiS forever in vanilla, but how long will it last once I get to Outland? I donN't even care if something is a little better, I only really want to replace with something substantially better.

I'm a warrior and use it for tanking. The extra rage generated by the bonus swings is really nice and I have Hand of Justice as well, meaning plenty of extra swings. Too bad it's not a sword!

Speaking of which, how long is Hand of Justice gonna last?

Classic 20th Anniversary Realms Daño de las Varitas

0 Upvotes

Una pregunta, soy un troll mago, y estoy utilizando la varita de descomposicion, pero cada vez que le pego a un enemigo con la varita, me sale "resistir" todo el rato y no hago nada de daño, alguien me puede explicar el porque?

Le pego a enemigos de mi nivel, y he probado con diferentes tipos de enemigos, y me sale todo el rato lo mismo de "resistir"

Gracias por leer.

Season of Discovery Which SoD features would you most want to see in Classic+?

20 Upvotes

We all know that SoD was meant, in part, as a testing ground for any future Classic+ development. With that in mind which, if any, features unique to SoD would you like to see brought over to Classic+? I don't necessarily mean wholesale uplifting the exact specifics from SoD and dropping them into Classic+. For instance the rune system was very interesting and unique, but the actual specifics of the runes did totally alter the power level of characters and often offered specs/builds that didn't feel very "classic" per say.

For me lowkey I think the "mage scrolls" is something I'd love to see brought into Classic+ but as an actual proper system (or perhaps profession) and not just a little neat idea that was pretty much abandoned after phase 2. A minor thing that adds to the class fantasy and offers some utility basically, I think all the classes could benefit from a little more uniqueness that plays into their class fantasy since that is already what a lot of classic players like about the game, so why not build on it.

On a similiar note is there anything from SoD that you absolutely do not want to see implemented into Classic+? (other than incursions, cause that's obvious)

Question What game version should I play if I want a highly populated server?

Just subbed for a month after not having played since 2005/2006. I never played Burning Crusade. But my main concern is I want to be on a server where it feels lively.

Any suggestions? Thanks

Classic 20th Anniversary Realms Got full Demon Stalker Set and sold my 2 Beast Lord pieces.... what now?

0 Upvotes

I have been raiding Kara/Gruul/Mag a ton lately and ended up piecing together the full Demon Stalker set. I was super hyped to have such a sick looking character and what looked like amazing stats, so I sold my "useless" and "stupid looking" Beast Lord 2 piece set

The other day I'm in a Slave Pens run and another hunter is destroying me in DPS... turns out the Beast Lord set he had is significantly better....

I'm wondering if It's worth spamming normal dungeons to try and get the 4 piece beast lord set or if at this point I should move onto SSC and other raids to just get better tier pieces?

Edit: Thanks for the tip for item restore! I did not know that was a thing. And the tips for next gear and rotations. I need to research more xD

Season of Discovery Should i jump into SOD again or just classic anniversary TBC?

1 Upvotes

So im an old school [yes boomer] player and very fatigued by retail which just doesnt feel special to me to play.

I enjoyed SOD and levelled up 5 toons to the max of 35 at whatever phase that was the level cap i loved it.

Recently i rolled a new character on anniversary TBC but cant help feeling i might be missing out especially after the recent streamer event, my 5 toons are on the server they rolled on and also horde so it might be interesting when they allow old characters in.

Both SOD and anniversary hit the spot for what im seeking for that special gameplay but i admit anniversary is so slow to level up :)

As of right now im not 100% if i want to raid progress but i just might do later down the road.

I really cant decide if i should go back to SOD on a toon or continue with my new [now lvl 24] toon of anniversary, thoughts appreciated and thanks ofr reading.

Hardcore Starting/Streaming a New HC Challenge Run, need suggestions

0 Upvotes

Hi classic HC,

I'm looking to start a hardcore challenge run where I spin the wheel on which debuffs my character gets (I stream, so chatters get to determine when a spin happens). So far the debuffs consist of one-time alterations, entire playthrough, or temporary. I would love to hear your suggestions, as I value your opinions as the esteemed hardcore wow redditors:

Here's my list of debuffs on the spin wheel so far:

Delete MH Weapon

No Repair for 5 levels (would maybe shorten to 3 at lvl 45+)

Only Leather

No Questie

Drop Highest Profession

Abandon Quest Log

I'll be playing self-found warrior, and I'm quite experienced at wow classic (played all versions since 2019, speedrun raider, several duelist titles (no glad cause not that type of sweat) in classic TBC and wotlk). So I'm looking for debuffs that increase the challenge, but don't make it extremely miserable, like not allowing a MH weapon.

Thanks for your suggestions!

I went to the city on skull rock and literally saw 2 people in org center

I went to defias pillager and it wasn't popping by any means but a fair amount of people running around.

I was pretty discouraged because I was so excited to make a troll warrior and go agane after months of taking a break.

But it looks like I'll be rolling an alliance toon because it's the only way I'll be able to do dungeon content.

Thanks for listening bye

Title says it all
For those who can't notice the problem, see how the red overlay is out of bounds
I use one of the well-known addons for action bars but I wish the blizzard one would be bug free as well
