Yet another Timewalking loot post ( As directed by GM)
Opened timewalking Cache before hotfix
Boosting payments.
Did Blizzard just hotfix an ilvl requirement onto Awakened LFR?

I’ve never seen anyone solo a raid boss in classic.
I’ve seen many people solo raid bosses In retail.

Stop saying Classic is easy - It’s harder than retail

Classic is boring, not hard.

Yay for useless topics cluttering the forums, awesome.
Appreciate your time with friends and family while they're here. Don't wait until they're gone to tell them what they mean to you.

Classic was and will always be easy. The only exception was really C'thun, 4 Horsemen, and Kel. Those were the only non-easy fights of Vanilla.
Just don't reply to me. Please. If you can help it.

Remind me, when was the last time a mythic raid was cleared in mere hours after release? Okay I know the answer, Legion but still 18 hours compared to sub 1 hour clears.

It's easy but tedious. That shouldn't be interpreted as easy, just long, slow or dull as that defines it pretty well. It's not challenging or complex. If you dumped me in the woods surrounded by bears, wolves, and little Goblin men who would kill me for looking at their candles wrong with no compass, map, armor, or good weapons and said "here you go, survive," I wouldn't last long and it wouldn't be a very interesting adventure. I'd probably run around until I got tired and would get eaten by the bear because I'd no longer care due to how unnecessarily tedious my predicament is.

I assume we're talking about raids? Classic raids are way to easy because they started at patch 1.12, vanilla raids is a different story but people were still very new at the game.
Retail raids are very much demanding and only a very small percentage can kill the final boss at mythic in the first week. All its other difficulties except some of the final bosses on heroic are rather easy though.
I don't really care about the difficulty either way. Both games can be fun for different reasons.

Yeah that one boss mechanic and that one spell you have to spam sure is difficult, if your IQ is less than that of a monkey.

Raids cleared in a couple of hours is proof that Classic is 16 year old content with mechanics that are incredibly easy to do research on. Originally Posted by cuafpr

Idiots say "raids cleared in a couple of hours is proof." You are one of them.

More mechanics crammed into a fight doesn't make it complex, you just have to remember a few more "x means I have to do y", and in most cases DBM or GTFO makes that decision for you anyway.
And even retail mythic is just as easy as long as you grind gear for long enough.
The games are different, that's all.

Being able to solo something or not does not make it easy or hard... Originally Posted by FreeHongKong

plus you know the people soloing in retail are exploiting usually right?
that did happen in vanilla aswell...
but i mean yeah sure, world first mythic nzoth was killed 6 days after its first pull.
nefarian was killed within 40 minutes of the raid opening
yeah classic is totally harder.

No they are not. nzoth mythic alone took 6 days, let alone the rest of the raid. Originally Posted by FreeHongKong
