Another thing that I didn't see.. Hellfire damaged yourself as a Warlock, so you could use it to die (in case of a wipe) without durability.

Also I remember bandaging being viable because my raidgroup was told numerous times to bandage during bossfights to help the healers out in BWL, esp on the 3rd boss :P

After Feign Death timer ended, Hunters would really die.

Talk about acting.

Unless I'm totally mistaking, you can still commit suicide via Hellfire.

I like the fact this is the one thread Mod's don't mind us necroing, because it's such a good thread.

-Those torches were used for scouting. Back than, the graphic engine was a bit different. Darker areas, such as Duskwood, were really "dark" and you couldn't see anything past 20-30 yards in front of you. Torches were used to increase visibility in those darker areas. Many NPC's in Duskwood still hold torches in their hands.

A part of me died when I read this one. Why the fuck did they remove it...

Blizzard has been always known for removing the "fun" part in games and surprising people last second.

Little known fact:

World of Warcraft had a gay experience in college, but quickly repressed it and is now happily married.

-Hunters were using focus as their resource system, but it regenerated while standing still, and was very overpowered so they gave them mana instead.

was very overpowered

And still is

To kill lower level players of the opposite faction, you could, as a hunter that is, tame a mob of their level, and walk around the questing area with it so they would attack it and become flagged as hostile....

Successfuly necroed! but for a good purpose, spend a good 3 hours goind through all that again, and I am sure more to come! Wish there was the OP to edit it / could be a nice thread if someone was taking care of it.

I loved this post! Most of the early Vanilla stuff I remember so it was like a walk down memory lane.

[Master Guns]

I fucking love this thread.

I feel so... old? Seeing stuff that was normal, when i started the game that now may be shocking to newer players.
Also, didn't know about ambient sounds in Karazhan crypt, I'd love to visit it some day, so creepy!
