What graphics card do you have Zenic?
@half obsidian GTX 1080, vsync on, max frame rate in backround/foreground at 60fps.
@true tendon please don't self-promote without getting an approval first
playing WoW classic found a drunk friend who is off his rocker who decided to start a new character with me and said decide my name and I said let me think
He picks the name Letmethink lol!
wow classic is such a wild, wild place
is it me or anyone else not able to get to the classic wowhead site?
If you're using Avast disable Anti-Phishing in the settings. We've already reported the false-positive to them.
@vernal kettle - Google Chrome, Win10
Okay, move to #wowhead-feedback-support
If anyone is on wow classic I need help finding something if you can.
yo is it just me or is wow classic hard af solo?
like im lvl 9 and some of these quests at my level are dangerous as hell
That's how it's designed
the lands of the tauren are sparse when it comes to other players lol
ive only seen like 5 other people
just started classic today and found the same so switched to humans found way more people in the area
once you get out of starter zones it get's more populated
tho human/UD & NE/Orc are most popular iirc
Escort quests have always been a treat to do. A treat that is trying to end you that is. The NPCs you have to escort are usually very special. They will jump into combat like lunatics, pull lots of mobs and batter you with silly monologues. This video puts all of these things ...
What is this horde quest so i can avoid it
Have you ever walked around Orgrimmar on your puny level 40 Shaman and have wondered how that level 40 Mage already has a mount? He's made over 100 gold simply by selling portals to desperate people. Have you ever played a warrior and came across a Mage in the open world who's...
@wicked blaze. If you play wow classic I need help finding something
I do not
Darn it well if anyone is on that actually does can you please jump on and help me find something it does not show up on the map and what not
Not really sure what you're looking for, or how someone who likely doesn't even play on the same server as you would be able to help in the first place
Might be beneficial if you actually described whatever your problem your having, so that someone familiar with it could recognize and assist
@lost hemlock Depends on what it is - what are you trying to find?
The mines to get gold
Like gold nodes? or in game currency
Just general gold mining spawn points? - https://classic.wowhead.com/object=1734/gold-vein has maps to the possible locations.
They randomly spawn, so it helps to path around where they can spawn and nab them when you see them.
actually the spawn points are not random. They are well known, their respawn rate / timing might be random... but the locations are fixed
Well, yes... hence the maps with locations where the gold nodes are able to be found, when they randomly spawn.
Hey there
Just a quick question
I recently bought a 60 day game time for wow
And I want to know when it expires
In 60 days or when I play a total of days
?
in 60 days
lol I wish it was 60 in game days. I'd have spent a lot less over the years 😂
same
depends on how often you can play i guess
if you know you can play often and wont get bored then longer subs could be better bc theyre technically cheaper
its mostly personal preferance i think
btw im talking about buying time monthy, not the automatic sub
I don't like the automatic sub
what s the most populated horde server?
There are a few websites that collect stats you can slice and dice:
https://wowclassicpopulation.com & https://ironforge.pro/servers/
IronForge.pro - WoW Classic Armory, Server population and more
i need help with a quest if anyone is on
hmmm classic PTR updated
was anything datamined yet from the PTR if there is something to even check out?
Looks like classic PTR is the exact same as live classic for now
No realms are up atm so we don't know what's included in this
Ah ok. So it's basically going to be used for testing the next phase of content then.
AQ is 5 but I'd like to think they'll be testing out Phase 4 first
probably. Better to have it in place already
Right? But that news of Shadowlands being there as well. Something's coming
Crap. I'm in the wrong channel to be talking about Shadowlands lol
Hey! I have a question about TOS, can Blizzard ban / suspend you for nothing? Like can they just do it if they want? We have a discussion in the guild. Do anyone know?
Blizzard have complete control over your account so they can. But as far as I know they didn't ban anyone for nothing.
If I have a normal WoW subscription does that mean I can play Classic?
Yep! @quick spade
Thanks!
Wow Classic Token incoming 😂 first in China
I actually turned off the Classic filter on the site to see the post, and whatever comments pops up on it
https://classic.wowhead.com/news=311410/wow-token-added-to-wow-classic-in-china did someone say C H I N A
If Arathi Basin is available, does that mean Zul'Gurub is available too?
Yes, ZG is available for testing
With the WoW Classic PTR now open for business, we have a test environment where we can dig into some of the content that is coming soon to WoW Classic. To be specific, our plan is to open Arathi Basin on all realms the week of March 10. At that time, we will also kick off th...
Just like how you change between Retail and Classic, the PTR should be there
Found it
Finally getting my enchants on my 19 rogue twink. I have Shadowfang, Assassin’s Blade, Cruel Barb and Wing Blade. Obvs having SF in MH. Decide for me: what should I have as OH? Only want 1, so no switching mid fight. I am putting Lifestealing on MH, and +15 agi on OH. What should I use in OH?
Suuup
waduuup
Yo bro can u help me>
im lvl 13
mhm
But how can i download the game for the first free lvls tho
i can try to help in dms
ok
how do you dethrone an inactive guild leader in classic? it's been 3 months, and "/script ReplaceGuildMaster()" says is blocked by the blizzard ui
I don't think you cant in classic
anyone wanna level, made a new undead rouge
should work @tulip gorge
i just get this
you have any addons?
Does anyone know whether the Disgusting Oozeling bug is fixed already where you don't get a green glow?
woops wc
what's up with the kill data on ragnaros?
only 46 kills logged? Meanwhile Razorgore has 1063
I've been uploading data since launch and have 11 kills personally, surely i'm not the only person uploading rag data
For Hunter pets, is it viable to keep the same pet you first tame throughout your leveling, or do higher level pets have better stats?
Guys its faster for exp/gold to be mage and aoe or warlock and go 1 by 1??
anyone on?
Is it possible to raid as destro lock?
how do you get the heart of az quest i forgot
do a little questing into nazjater
ar*
Guys its faster for exp/gold to be mage and aoe or warlock and go 1 by 1??
Do anyone wanna start level tomorrow? any eu server
go mograine
Hey im new could some one play with me and show me how can i play this game ?
@waxen herald Look around online and try it out yourself and then find people ingame, there will be plenty of both guides and players to assist you.
no, this game is subscription-based
unsure about any free version for classic
What u play
but on live/retail there's level 20 cap for non-sub
retail yeah
And when it caps at 20 and i buy sub i keep 20 lvl and stuff
yes, subbing does not suddenly delete your character.
K
it just unlocks the leveling process past 20
Kk
again, unsure how it is for classic, if there even is, but that's how it works for live
retail
Whats that
classic is wow as it was in 2007 or whatever
live. retail. battle for azeroth
you are in the classic wow channel right now
well it's over a decade newer
depends on perspective. retail has a LOT more quality of life improvements, but classic has it's own charm aswell for those who prefer a more hardcore experience
I'd imagine vast majority of gamers have heard of him, yeah
from a quick search, looks like he's played both classic and retail
So from what I am hearing.. Classic WoW is a bit more difficult than Retail WoW?
Also yeah I searched real quick and it said the same but it shows videos of him trying out classic.. maybe he's more familiar with retail? I have no idea, I don't know him 🤷♀️
classic is more slowpaced, and punishes even minor things if you're not prepared.
and both versions have flying animals, but classic only has it as an option from a few specific areas, to other various areas. retail, as of the last three expansions, require some grinding for free flying
K
Ah ok, since I got the 3 month subscription today, I was thinking about getting both versions but I wasn't sure. Perhaps I will get classic when i'm more familiar with the game. That way when someone asks me if I play WoW I can say I got both versions, lol, so i'm prepared.
Btw witch one looks better like graphicks classic one or the other one ?
modern
definitely
as said, classic is literally 10+ years older than what we have now
So ?
oh wow
so, uhm, i stoped playing when i was lvl 55, is it too late to come back?, or even start a new character?
Its never late
what diffrences are betfeen wow calssic and wow ?
The gameplay, character builds, classes in general, graphics
Both still have Kill x many [Variety] of pigs, though
ssshhhh bot I was not summoning you
why is this channel so dead?, i thought that classic was doing fine
@waxen herald theres two wow(stands for world of warcraft) games. a long time ago wow was made, and it kept getting updated and the current most updated wow expansion is battle for azeroth. some people like how wow was a long time ago, so they have another world of warcraft game you can play called wow classic, which is what wow was a long time ago
im looking for a 60 frost mage for powerleveling if anyone is interested
hi is there a website where people share their shadow UI import strings ?
i am on the quest a fishy peril and i cant find where to go for the darn quest someone please help me
Hey team, just wondering with whom do i speak with regarding the position you have for a druid/pala writer? 🙂
weren't you given this info?
If you are 18 or older, have experience with Classic WoW in the relevant class role, and are familiar with guide/technical writing, we'd love to hear from you. Send us an e-mail talking about your experience, your area of expertise in WoW, and some writing examples to feedback@wowhead.com. At the current time, we are mainly looking for writers just for the Paladin and Druid positions, not other classes. Feel free to send any questions you might have about this offer to our e-mail feedback@wowhead.com or reach any of our staff in our Discord Server.
can someone please help me?
I have few questions
ive just started playing wow classic, when I am killing the wolves for a quest, none of the items I am looting are going into my backpack? so its saying I have none of the quest items, when I have been collecting, does anyone know where theyre going?
/anyone?
hi?
@stark basin I had the same problem when I started last night. I had to log out and log back in. It seemed to be a glitch.
@strong terrace Tauren is a fine choice.
@stark basin Do you have room in your backpack? Also, are the specific items that are dropping what are needed for the quest? If you do not have auto-loot set, you, also, need to loot each item that a mob drops.
@maiden river a couple million-ish folks seem to think so, but that is subjective. For 15USD for 30 days, you can give it a shot and see if it is worth it to you.
how do I get auto-loot?
@silver moat how do I get auto-loot?
actually think ive worked it out! google actually helped this time! lmao
@stark basin Sorry, was off. Glad you found it! Always use it, myself. It is one of those must-have things for me.
Good luck out there; have fun!
does anyone have any add ons that they recommend?
Your best bet is to play with the default UI and as you encounter issues or times where you think 'this could be better' to then look for some on wowinterface and/or curseforge . The 'most popular' categories on the sites will give you some solid ideas, as well.
There will be a trainer who sells spells/upgrades for your specific class, first will be in the starting area, then they will be in most towns and the main cities, after.
ok thank you
thanks @silver moat
Considering blood elves are a tbc race I doubt they will add it to classic
blizz said they arnt focussed on a TBC reboot right now, doesn't mean that later down the track once Classic has played itself out they could possibly end up doing it
@finite forge zwitsal
yeah thats true
Does Classic have non PVP servers
I want to get into classic but I really don't like world PVP
yes it does
Then play on a non-pvp server
I'm new to the game and have never played before and was wondering if anyone could give any tips on starting out
@runic brook to check, you're definitely sure about starting with classic, not current?
I’d start with retail and go back to classic
are there ppl who go av premade still? would like too win sometimes:P
From what Swifty says, you can only take 5 people into a AV as a "premade". They don't even allow the mass queue and get into the same instance anymore.
Not 100% sure if his explanation was right on point, but I am sure it is very close.
@neon token Apologies for directly pinging but uh.. just wanted to bring NHSis' recent "comments" to attention, in various non-english channels.
I have some questions
me too
hi
yooo anyone wanna help me power level an alt?
Im new to classic never played it. The oldest expansion I played was on WOTLK. Anyone wanna level with me or teach me basics?
Mobs are stronger in classic (asking for help is a good idea), no group finder (gotta use trade chat or lfg chat), you buy your spells and abilities (cata was the last expansion to do so), attunements are a thing in classic
And basic mounts are lvl 40 (rather than 20) at a cost of 100g (10 for the mount and 80 for the skill), epic mounts are lvl 60 (rather than 40) and cost 1k gold. Theres separate riding skills based on race: horse riding for humans, tiger riding for night elves, wolf riding for orcs, kodo riding for tauren). Mounts dismount in water.

If you like it go ahead
Classic WoW sucks, but only because I'm spoiled
If they had classic Wrath, I'd be down
Idk about wrath

Hey guys can I get some help with something?
There is a weird potential bug or my friends and I missed something ... but I can't find any information on this elsewhere. Three of us were running Horrific Visions. No orbs left. Completed Valley of Spirits and The Drag. No one had self res as a talent. We're fighting Thrall. Everyone runs out of sanity but me and I have already used my free res. I have 3 sanity left and decide screw it, we're not going to down 25% anyway and try to res my friend. Instead, I am boosted to full Sanity. I res my one ally for 50% of my sanity and we down Thrall. Is there a buff for doing the bonus objectives that we missed? Or ... is this a bug? Albeit, a beneficial and lucky one?
This is for #retail-wow
They just copy-pasted my original post from #retail-wow. Based on their other comments there, they’re probably a troll. : /
Hello, is there a channel for questions related to addons?
@maiden river you think Asian players are attracted to MoP?
@cerulean briar I said a business strategy.
Fair enough
What all did MoP have to attract asian players that didn't already attract them to WoW?
Besides Pandaren and the Kung Fu Panda knock off map : )
Ah yes, i heard that too through a survey
I don't play classic but
It should be nice to have two different servers
Inb4 they add lvl 50 boosts to bc servers
hold up this might sound dumb but , if there isnt a dungeon finder in wow classic , how exactly do i find a group for a dungeon since im playing alone ?
@normal plover You go in front of the dungeon enterance and socialize
of course you can dps.
well im totally new , is he really good end-game ? or in high demand or ?
To be honest, I don't know how wanted a warrior is over other classes. I just know that there are people doing great dps as a warrior in end game.
well
i dont want to be ditched out in dungeons lol and have a hard time trying to find a group for playing dps warrior
but if he's doing great than im down for it , since i love the 2hand sword style
That is more about the player than the class.
i see
If you learn the ins and outs of the class then apply that knowledge, then you will be fine.
well ima give him a try and see
, about the questions and stuff is there a way to make them more easier to notice and do ? or its meant to be that way, like for example where i have to wait for the npc to finish his talk so i can accept or give in , or i have to search out for the question location by myself
i mean i am fine with it , its more fun that way , but i am more curious about it
Not sure. You are talking about quest text? I think that there is something that speeds it up and addon or some setting. I think that it was part of the immersion though, that Blizzard put in to start out with.
nice
and about the quest helper thing
like shows where the locations and stuff
@dire pendant
Do you have the Twitch app on your computer? If so, go there and do some searching. I don't know the name of it. The other place you can look is on curseforge.com (I think). These will put the addons into the proper folder for you and everything. I don't have any addons on my classic, so I don't know any that you would want or need.
any ony pugs
I know this is stupid bu tdoes anyone want to run some quests in westfall?
Random question: Are there any good servers that are fairly balanced faction wise? PvP, or PvE, I don't care.
uhm, what if this whole TBC Classic topic is just an april fool's joke?
An out of season April Fool's joke?
Does anybody even play on OCE?
<@&299347348847329281>
Ty!
I got a question, is there some form of addon that will write two languages at the same time in WoW classic? I mean something like if i wanted to learn some new Simplified Chinese characters, and to do so I would like both translations available to quickly understand what some characters mean.
Im having a really hard time picking out which allied race to go for first. Since there are so many choices, idk what to pick. HELP!

does anyone know the profession-specific benefits in classic WoW? i.e. tailor-specific bodies that can be made and worn. do these exist for blacksmithing and other professions?
well i got a question , is it fine to feel a little heavy when playing warrior , sometimes it skips the animation and does the damage of some ability's on top of that feels so slow evne tho i have 100 ms
well yeah but someitmes feels like its not normal Lol like i click on the ability but it takes like 1-2second delay to use or sometimes skips the animation

You have to have at least 5 of the herb to mill it
yeah
Oh I just noticed
wait
It's April 1st and my Classic main is a joke
years ago there was no way to show a quest in classic
LOL
Uh there still isn't?
You mean on the minimap, right?
yeah
Classic felt really simple once I got my keybinds sorted
how
Probably because I'm a semi-professional (and modest) retail player
Oh lol
And I knew, deep in my soul, that keybinds are the second most important part of WoW
After gear, obviously
Well thats a good thing
Lol i got to tear 415
and just gave up went back to Elwyn forest
Tier 415? You mean item level on live?
yeah i call it tear
Idk why
but yeah
But i will call it item level
i call it tier idk why
Laughs in 452
Lmao
I'm pathetic
well i have 8 characters that are 120 so no wonder
I only have my monk (main) and warrior. And every other class but shaman and warlock below 115
Lol
I just make characters for fun
and if i reach the limit i delete characters
and repeat everything again
Uh, I feel like this conversation is about retail again
Yeet
Lol
People dont talk much on this discord. Do people still play classic wow or not?
Yes, but why would you talk in this Discord when you can't interract with most people in the game who are talking here? It's different in retail since all severs are shared in a way. in Classic most people just use guild Discord or server Discord.
That's why I don't understand why people ask here for Deadmines runs or something.
... Uh. You google your server and location and add Discord to it.
I can't know what your servers Discord is without knowing your location or the server you're playing on. 😄
Yes.
Yes.
Which do you like better retail or classic?
Depends for which purpose. Gameplay, Classic. Roleplay, Retail.
Which do play the most?
Retail since I like to roleplay.
Ewww
At this point I just join raids in Classic.
I don't know. There was an email send about it asking how people would like to handle it.
It's very likely that it will come, personally I'd say it's going to be announced in this years Blizzcon(if it happens), and we get TBC Classic next year.
How does this make you feel?
A bit meh to be honest. They should just focus on making retail less about pop-up windows, dozens of different systems etc and just fix that.
Seems like you are no too impressed with classic
It's fun. But it more reminds me of what retail could be.
I see
Also I'm not playing WoW anymore as my only game. Since the fact that WoW still doesn't have proper player housing is royaly pissing me off.
No player housing, too many systems. Too much stuff to do, as in you constantly have to farm your main to keep up. In Classic you can get your main to a point it's alright to play an alt, which I like.
I do. But for like 10 years I played nothing but WoW. At the moment WoW is something I play a bit here and there.
One thing I always hated in mmo's was player housing. It such a useless feature
You go to the house and just stand around
Player housing is optional. You don't have to do it. For those who do, it's a way of expressing yourself and work towards a goal that isn't in a "I NEED TO DO THIS NOW OR I FALL BEHIND" way. Also for anyone that roleplays it's a great feature.
Games like ESO and SWTOR basically are kept going with player housing.
I'm sorry all I read was player housing is useless
... In that case you're very blind, simple minded and don't want what's best for WoW.
Wow, harsh
Well think of it this way. If player housing was so integral it would have been implemented
But it wasnt
What is player housing?
Means that you can build a house, add stuff in it and make it yours.
What does it do?
Nothing
No.
It's a place you can bring your character and stand around
Don't listen to Zero, he is being a fucking idiot. If you want to learn about player housing, I can send you couple of links Mist.
Player housing in wow?
Is one of the features I'd like to see.
I truly thank the wow devs for not wasting their time with such a useless feature
Zero player housing can be really fun and you dont have to agree but you also dont have to shit on people
for liking it
Take that negative bullshit elsewhere
wow really, both you and @sturdy trench were a dick to me even going as far as cussing at me because I dont like player housing
Excuse me?
Pun intended? “Wow”
I was not mean to you and I just woke up so claiming I was is an attempt to garner false sympathy
I told you to take your negativity elsewhere and I used a curse word
If that is too much for you then you probably should not be interacting on the internet.
just ignore zero, hes a troll
I give up
anyone have any suggestions of where to grind as a level 31 hunter? I've just been grinding in duskwood because all the horde in stranglethorn were 34+ and I wanted a bit more of a chance
Have you tried stonetalon?
ngl I completely forgot about there, thanks ^
np
While in stonetalon I just came across an undead mage who ganked me when I was levelling in darkshore
even with the jump on him and a two level edge I feel 0 remorse for ganking back, felt so good to get revenge
Im not gonna lie..I will camp a motherf"cker who ganks me and is similar level
I will caaaamp
and when they bring their main ill camp them as well
lol

Learn to jitter click so you can beat anyone.
dk if i want more honour or to not contract arthritis
@iron carbon that's not nice to do to people
people will camp others for less
what did I do?
to be fair they said theyd only camp after that person had already ganked them
in a game where 90%of WPVP isnt fair, why not show someone who went out of their way to kill you that you can be just as annoying
imo
@kindred jetty most players gank other while in passing. Which is understandable, you see someone from the opposite faction and you might panic. It's kill or be killed. But to outright camp someone is immoral. Its not how the game should be played
Isn’t Classic boring?
If they gank you back and camp you then it’s fair game.
i disagree
he was only ganked once, while in passing. then @iron carbon decided to camp which isnt cool.
It’s his own fault for ganking, then he wouldn’t be in that situation.
if a member of the opposite faction crosses your path, what would you do?
I don’t even play Classic lmao.
It really depends on what type server you play on.
On PVP, people consider things as much as camping to be universal fair game.
There is very little that is considered abusive from a PVP perspective on such servers.
Why do people like Classic so much?
Because retail is paint-by-numbers.
And there was a lot of old content that never got old, and ruined the immersion when it was removed.
I'm not fan of retail's combat gameplay mechanics when it came out in Legion.
But it made you think about it. Abilities don't highlight at the "ideal" opportunity. You need to think about rotations.
Addons perhaps help there, but natively no.
I suppose I should give it a try before bashing it but IMO Retails combat system just looks far more appealing to me from what I have seen so far.
I like the feeling of trying as hard as I can in games.
And acquiring items or milestones actually felt like achievements just based on your effort alone.
Classic really makes you work for it.
True.
Even bag space management.
I think as a semi-new player I wouldn’t enjoy it as much though, I’ll have to try it at one point however.
In Retail, it became fairly easy to solo mobs 4 levels higher than you. In Classic, doing the same is basically a death wish whilst levelling.
It really made you think about the most basic of game mechanics.
I think retail is better for most new players but in the long run I also think classic is less difficult
I find it funny coming across posts on classic wowhead that people are replying to 15 year old comments and not taken this into consideration to think that their reply based on Classic is not entirely relevant to the 15 year old post.
hey anyone looking to make some new chars on classic?
if you're looking for someone to play with, it'd be better to let people know what region you're from and what kind of server you want to play
Do you know when TBC will be released?
and is it true that you can make a character starting at leve 58?
@maiden river atleast a year and a half from now. And what? That's not a thing now and won't ever be, dont know where u head that
thaks buddy
whats bis for prot warrior off-hand and main hand
Haven't actually gotten into this game yet but do you need to craft and gather stuff in this game? Been playing black desert online but there's too much "life skills" involved and I play games to escape life
You do not have to
not required at all
It does of course make things easier in terms of making your own stuff
but def not required
Thanks, don't mind a little bit of gathering stuff but having 50 quests in a row about it or planning 3 days worth of it for armour is a no go for me
Good to hear, might get on it in a min
Any recommendations on what class to play? I normally play solo as I'm new to PC gaming and don't have any friends on here yet
hmm
They don't have a pet in Classic?
Not until level 10
Bruh
Hunter is so OP early levels in retail that you don't even need a pet.
Just slow down an NPC, them spam shoot.
That sounds horrible xD.
Classes in classic are not much like classes now its much different
Classic sounds too aggravating for me.
I like both
I like to rush in and be able to fight many enemies, regardless of dying or living. It is what I find fun.
same
But Ihave moods
Some days I like to just chill and those days ill play classic
Don't even know if my version is classic, whichever comes from the blizzard app on windows
they both do
Oh, how can I check which one I've got? Just say world of Warcraft
What does it say to the left of your screen, when you're looking at all of your characters?
@acoustic stump
If you see a Panda when making a character you have BFA.
Classic is basically WoW when it first came out.
This one is faster paced and you can solo with pretty much every class easily
I'm currently on free trial, haven't paid for it yet
No expansions.
I might give that ago, find myself burning out really quickly on every game I try lately so hopefully this one will stick
Once you're gotten good gear at max level I don't really burn out now.
What would you guys recommend as a good character to start with? Like I said I'll probably play solo as I don't know anyone on PC. I like being in the middle of the fight and dealing decent damage while tanking so paladin looks like a good choice?
Sorry should've posted in the retail bit right?
g'damn.. we really need blizzard to step in and do something about this... 4 hour queues are not acceptable.
It is fixed here, has been for a few hours.
This happens to incendius every night due to the mass coordinated transfers from skeram, stalagg, thalnos and faerlina to incendius. The transfers won't stop, it's increasing the nightly queue time every single night.
Ah
@maiden river @quiet pine Blizz did a survey about how TBC could be rolled out. One of the questions had 4 options, and the idea of having TBC servers with a start level of 58 was one of the options.
So it's technically not true that it will happen. It was only a survey option.
This is what I've seen of the survey, and where you can see that option amongst 3 other ideas.
I didn't see it myself either. I got that from someone on a forum I frequent.
Depends on what you're doing, but generally advisable.
How do you skip the quest "Writing" animation?
Interface Options > Display > Instant Quest Text
whats the best setup for gear on prot tank warrior
ty!
A rogue keeps on killing my pet, stealthing away and killing it when i revive it 
why wont he leave it alone 
take me instead 
why even continue living
aww
They do it to make the pet angry at you and to make it run away. It is a long game troll.
yeah waited until he was gone
thats fudged
tbf you are playing a hunter one of the most privleged classes in the game
sooo
while I'll say it's a mean troll, your playing a hunter
not saying being a hunter is hard or anything :p
when its someone 27 levels higher i think class goes out the window
true
Which caster should I play? Back in vanilla I mained warrior, and I don't want to live through that hell again (screw you whirlwind weapon quest chain making me fight level 38s!)
Priest
I meant dps, unless shadow priest is any good, I'm not too comfortable playing a healer in classic
Is there anyone that uses SUF (Shadowed Unit Frames) that could help me out? I am a tank and I need to know everything I have aggro on but for some reason I cant find how to enable it
I'd suggest warlock jayken
easy to level because of your pets, tons of utility, awesome flavour
i loved rogue back in vanilla, mained a healdin, but rogue was definitly the most fun to me
Ok, so far, I am digging warlock (only level 8), which spec is good for the leveling grind?
I prefer afflic for classic leveling but in classic you will be using all 3 trees
some advice and tips and I think they include a levelign spec as well
Random question, way back in Vanilla you could die, then log out/back in and then go rez at any spirit healer. Has anyone tried this in classic?
Yep sickness is fine
So i just log out and right back in and then I can go to whatever healer i want? @paper adder
Ty for the answer too
The angel in the graveyard they put you in
I'm trying to use the old trick to run my low level alt through a few zones.
But an actual healer player is a oof sometime if there aint nearby
Oh death roll?
You can die and go nack to your body
Yea like in vanilla you could die in say Darkshore
Good thing the game is nice giving you a 30 yard raduis near your body
log out and then back in then run as a ghost to the barrens and rez at a healer there
@pseudo tundra yeah it works i try it i started with my level 8 paladin and die in the elwynn forest and ran all the way to booty bay graveyard and unlocked booty bay town
Wait nvm
It port me back

I think they program it due to your character body die the map area is
enemy rogue in the same zone as me sure likes trying to stealth up on me only to get flared and back off
hmmmm 5 levels in 40 mins is that good?
back in january it was stated that wowhead updates the drop rates on the site with fresh data from people that use the wowhead client. On Ebonroc for instance there are around 2100 loot logs parsed. If we look at Ragnaros there are only 51 loot logs. Might there be a problem with Rags data?
https://classic.wowhead.com/npc=11502/ragnaros
Not likely tbh
the percentage is set in programming and random percent, yes?
I think
so no matter how many people do the content the drop rate is the same?
Any recommendations on a good Classic server to play on that is pretty active and no full ALL the time on US EAST? or West?
Good morning from Germany. Where can I ask questions about the Gear Planner?
I don't know what a gear planner is
But I played when it was current
So maybe I can help
in the planner i get 134Int and ingame i get 128+6(gnome bonus) Int. i dont think you can much explain what happend

scintilla something
some female name
Did ZG come out in classic yet?
need help with wa2
ive setup 2 triggers for an aura
one is when the aura is not present, second is when timeremaining < 10
problem is they refuse to work together, its either first, or if all triggers is selected - none at all
i dont understand this and it seems like its bugged
required for activation means its AND or OR
still dont get why it doesnt work, time remaining is in seconds?
whats the fastest way to earn the last 3 lvls on a toon
I'm pretty new to the game, I have a level 9 Tauren Hunter. I seem to die a lot just doing normal quests. Is there something I should be doing differently? I have the same weapons and abilities I did when I started
You should be visiting your class trainer occasionally
They teach you new abilities and upgrade old ones
And as for gear - you should be getting some new ones as you level
from quests and loot etc
Well that makes sense. Armor has been dropping but no weapons. where can I find the class trainer, sorry pretty much a complete noob
There's where the Tauren starting ones are for you 😉
Thanks a lot man! Probably could have googled but i prefer to ask directly lol
Also, at level 10 (I think it's level 10 in classic?) you will get your first pet which will tank enemies for you so you're less likely to die 😉
Thanks man! I really do appreciate it!
just picked up Training Sword of the Wolf sword. Any good?
Can I use a sword as a Hunter?
Yeah, take a read of this section on icy veins 😉
Section 5.1
I picked up a good sword but cant use it because I dont have the proficiency to yet. Do I have to train to be able to use it?
You do! Unfortunately the trainer is in the Undercity if I recall correctly.
Yea thats what Im reading online, no way to get there im assuming if Im only lvl 10 haha
You can run to Orgrimmar (Through the Barrens and across Durotar) and take a zeppelin to the Undercity
It's a long trip xD
then you can Hearth back to Mulgore
It's all part of the journey 😉 Just be careful through the Barrens the mobs there will be much harder than in mulgore
I appreciate it again man!
still one of the better sources imo, like for classic it gets us by easily
Hi does anyone know where the BRD quest Jailbreak starts, chain-wise?
Icy veins does give wrong info sometimes
I need help running hogger pm me
You shouldnt be going to just one source to begin with Icy veins is a very good base starter place
idk what horde class to pick
do you mean class or race
Anyone wanna play?
Mograine is pretty good for the alliance side
There are?
I just haven't seen many around the starting areas. I used to see like 10 or 15 players in all starting areas but now im lucky if I find another player
are you playing on high/full servers?
Minkrik
i dont know that servers size
On server list it says "High"
idk what to suggest, while it's not as busy as launch month I still seeplenty of people, playing on mograine eu
Well i mean i just assume cause its early in the morning
oh yeah timezones
you wont find anyone around early on servertime
like at 3am i saw maybe 6 people in stormwind, whereas at like 9 it was full
right, do you happen to use KUInameplates? I'm not sure I understand "Execute Range"
Is anyone on fairbanks?
ya des fr
yes I'm french but go > #french
ok ty
can anyone help me understand the zone by level on alliance cause i know early on you have to do a lot of travelling in between areas
ey uh, no self promo. part of rules, buddy.
so, <@&299347348847329281> care to do your thing?
@loud glade please don't
hey im new to wow and ama lvl 37 rogue. which channel can i ask questions in? lol
hey im new to wow and ama lvl 37 rogue. which channel can i ask questions in? lol
@blissful glen hey, how long took u to get 37 lvl? xD
Quick question, I remember back in vanilla (may have been wrath) i had an addon that when I leveled popped up a thing showing my stat increases like final fantasy and told me what I could learn. Is there anything like that now?
I don't recall an add-on like that.
can anyone please help me??
what addon is this person using to have their health bar under character and also the effect icons with timer above enemy? please someone help me haha. (this is on classic)
The healthbar under the character looks like the blizzard one. It is in the settings, I think it is called personal health bar. The one above the enemy could be threat plates, but I have heard of another (can't remember the name) that can do similar things and has more features.
this is on classic?? is that option available in the settings on classic?
I do believe so.
I think the creators made it compatible is what I am saying.
I don't know if that is a setting in classic or not for the UI, but I think they added some of these things as they don't really change gameplay and only add features.
ok well thank you for your help anyway!
I am having the HARDEST time leveling :/ anyone want to teach a noob
Biggest thing that I can tell you about leveling in Classic, don't treat the leveling process like you would the leveling process in current content. Your character power increases over time and unless you are very intimate with your class, you will die a lot if you treat it like you level in current. In current you are basically OP compared to the mobs out and about. Whereas in classic, you will only be OP when you out level the mobs around you, but that slows down your exp gains. So you have to balance how much you pull and how high of a level the mobs you pull are so you don't get instantly killed.
If I wanted to make an Alliance Hunter, what race should I go for. I plan on playing both PvE/PvP, going to try and play PvP a bit more than PvE though.
The one that you want to play. The racials aren't a huge factor, though I think dwarf gets some sort of hunter buff (I think they removed that).
Yeah, that buff was removed.
I might go with Night Elf. They seem more of a jack of all trades in terms of being a good race for PvP and/or PvE.
I'm talking Classic.
yeah haha, we're in the classic wow channel!
hmm, does classic right now have that one restriction where you can only play on one faction on a server?
Yeah, dwarf is the best because of gun specialization.
NE are all around good though.
@tidal lichen one faction if it is a pvp server. Normal servers don't have that restriction.
gotcha
I think I'll just go Nelf, since my main in Retail is a Nelf and they seem alright.
@dire pendant does that restriction go to RPVP servers too?
Not sure, but I am guessing yes. The philosophy was for that time, if you chose a faction on a pvp server, you couldn't want the other faction too. But that is an RP server and rules seem different there.
gotcha
Yes it extends to rppvp
Can somebody help me ouit
Please?
I have a issue with my collections interface
If bought a mount but I have seriously no clue how to equip it
@maiden river What mount?
oh I still have a starters account
But if bought Sub
US Sub]
But I need to wait? like a day because my paypal says its still pending
Yeah you need to wait till it gets approved
Ahh okay didnt know that
So right now, im leveling a prot warrior and i've came to a split decision, i have a one handed sword that has 8-15 (5.5 dps) +2 Attack power or a one handed mace with 11-21 damage (7.0 DPS) that also gives 1 stamina
i'm leaning towards the mace
leveling. as prot.
I'm so sorry.
Mace is defintly the way to go
(though what is the attk speed on each?)
attack speed not DPS
oh
for warrior you generate rage on melee
sword 2.10 mace 2.30
go for the mace
yes
I thought prot in classic wanted faster weapons to generate rage at an increased rate?
I've seen some guides go so far as suggesting daggers as your main weapon
i heard that if you do horde warrior orc is top tier but if i run tank can tauren be on par
Just play what you like man.
I know arena doesn't exist in classic but if 2s existed, what would be the best partner for a hunter in wpvp?
no one? :' )
2 button rotation.
Yah this is my first time playing classic and I’m finding it much harder than retail
I tried and got bored about 20 minutes in.
what about the servers?
Wdym
it disconnects us every time
Harder is a relative term. If you are doing Mythic raiding or Mythic + anything higher than 15 classic is much easier.
That is fine, everyone starts somewhere. Basically, you are saying that classic is harder compared to the content that you have completed in current. I understand, that is why I said harder is a relative term.
Yah that makes sense
Good luck out there. To me both games are fun.
Yah I’ve been enjoying both of them thanks 
i like the higher skill floor of classic content but the half decent ceiling that stops at a point
like with retail the ceiling would continue to match whatever I improve to which is nice, but being able to simply overcome something and have final rewards feels nicer imo
yo anybody up do some games of classic wow the looking for group doesnt seem to work well
Hey guys, I'm in Japan, not having played WoW since BC (Burning Crusade, not Before Christ), and wanting to get a group together to make new characters and play together regularly.
Thinking of Taiwan PvE server. If anyone's interested to join up, send me PM! Idea is to play about 3 hours a day for fun, not necessarily to think about raiding any time soon.
can you type smt pls, testing notification settings
smt
smt
We might play eu server instead. If anyone interested to join 3-man party, let me know! We're looking for 3rd member!
@maiden river Mirage Raceway most probably, but we're flexible since we're starting out
Can someoen help me to decide which realm to play on
I don't know them very well
Im stuck between Gehennas and Shazzrah
you'll need to give us your region, prefered faction and if you want to play a pve or pvp server
@spice bronze so basically. it doesnt matter that much. the most important factor is the type of the realm you want to be on. in classic wow there are 3 types. PvE PvP and RP. in first one you cant really kill players from opposite faction in open world. in the 2nd one you can do that and I'd actually suggest you to play that if you want to experience the game properly.
RP also has two sub branches which are basically like the first two but they have RP elements meaning that theres a heavy role playing community in them.
If you dont have friends playing this game, just pick a high populated realm.
how are hunters in TBC? any comments?
gotta watch out for those wandering warlock covens man
i've heard the best tbc setup was a 1 button BM build
i'd imagine theyre the same as classic, only slightly more polished
good utility, averaging dps
Is it still worth playing wow classic or is it underpopulated now?
guess that's a no...
There are still quite a few high and full realms
Asking in a wowhead and gauging a lack of response as no one playing is...weird lol
wowhead disc**
the problem with these old expansion servers is that things you do there do not last. In a game like WoW where you spend few hours of your life to achieve a certain item, mount or achievment. It would really piss you off if you realize that its not going to stick forever.
Blizzard should definitly allow people to transfer items, mounts, achievments from lets say classic/tbc or whatever account to the retail
Classic has been thriving for almost an entire year and TBC coming out will only attract even more people, we'll be good for a while
I play on mograine eu where there is a small queue to get on every evening
Wait .. you have to start over from scratch on the TBC server?
They are still looking what they want to do with BC servers
The options are start from scratch
Directly continue with your current character
Start with a new character at 58
Or be able to copy your character from a classic server to a BC one
Let's hope they allow carry-over.
Blizzard would be stupid if they wouldn't allow that
Atm they are just listening to players so
Considering the poll what happens is up to the playas
Anyone know if it's a known issue that the tooltips of Ranks 1 and 2 of Seal of Righteousness basically don't differ?
Speaking of in-game, not the site.
Perhaps disregard. I googled further into it, and it's "known".
Does anyone have Fairbanks server discord? Asking for a friend
Bluepost says we're getting Silithus quests tomorrow now.
Is that Oceania or US tomorrow?
Best duo for Druid?
With the changes coming this morning, what is Silithus like right now? Is it just a barren wasteland without the cenarion hub there? Any actual content besides being a place to level grind?
The blue post says it unlocks at 3pm PDT.
10 hours 30 minutes from now.
@stone flume ^
Hey guys I played Burning Crusade when I was like 14 or something. I just recently built a PC and a buddy of mine has talked me into playing again. In MMORPGs I enjoy playing as healer...he is horde...now I know there are “3-4types Og classes” when it comes down to who can heal...my question is which class is the “best” at healing and nothing else. I don’t give two craps about DPS. I just want those easy queues and to be the most beneficial to the party ...
Please DM or @ me as I’m currently working 🤘🏼 just wanting some different opinions.
Priest is probably the most "pure" heal class that you can rely on being viable every xpan
Druid as well
Jiniix not sure why you would say avoid druid
they have lead top parses in either raid or mythic in multiple expansions
They were only weak in Classic in healing terms and even that is argueable
also
my bad just realized this is the classic channel
hahaha
yea avoid druid if you want through put in classic
Cool I’ll run priest then thanks guys
