SoM 2.0

[Proskill]

is there any info about SoM 2.0 or at least fresh vanilla Classic? is it ever coming?

[Djuntas]

I doubt we'll hear anything until late Q4.

Honestly, I hope we wont hear anything for 2 years and then suddenly they just drop the ultimate classic+ done right.

[Proskill]

but i feel like playing vanilla right now, and classic era is dead

[salate]

If they won't remake tier sets for every spec then it's not even worth to try again imo

if you are into HC leveling, classic era is certainly not dead at all.

[enigma77]

fingers crossed it'll be a real classic +

huge changes and so on

what is HC leveling? simply not dying or what? im not into ironman challenges or any kind of challenges, i just want to chill and play, but yeah, leveling is the most fun part of vanilla. i love grinding mobs.

about classic era, last time i checked the server and typed "1-60" in the search field, there were like 3 ppl total on my faction. thats worse than the lowest population private servers. cant play MMO like that

HC leveling is 1-60 without dying. No grouping, no trading, no ah use allowed, plus more rules. Google it and you can see all the rules, I just mentioned the basic ones. If you die, its over and gotta start over.

On EU its Hydraxian Waterlords RP server, on US I think its Bloodsail Buccaneers server.

I just played some on Hydraxian and theres people everywhere, alliance side. Theres several HC guilds filled to the max with members. No idea how its on horde. If you are into chill leveling and play I would highly recommend it. Of course, dont die

The whitemane cluster is actually pretty busy right now. Tons on both sides lvling and starting to raid. I think the mankrik cluster is the pve server cluster if you wanted to go there.... Just look at all the medium pop servers!

[Proskill]

i got a lvl 35 shaman on shazzrah EU and its dead.

whats the bigger server, hydraxian or firemaw? cant find server pop database for vanilla nowadays. theres only wotlk classic one

Bloodsail has over 20 active guilds on both horde and alliance. It is the most active NA server.

[SinR]

Convince Blizzard its worth the resources.

Until then, its not worth it to them

Not sure at what hours you're playing but i also picked up good 'ol classic few days ago, and on firemaw eu cluster community is booming. Through 30 levels i managed to get so far on my nelf warrior i see players leveling all the time.

What is your definition of “done right?”
What is it that you want to see?

Noooooo it’s hardly dead at all. The Whitemane cluster is popping, people online all the time, faction balance is close to 50-50 for a pvp server, lots of levelers & dungeon groups. You’ve been lied to, sir.

Actually, faster transitions each phase. I mean, we waited too long to AQ gates, our guild burned out killing Nefarian each week.
Changes they made to fishing/alchemy were really slow, it should have been in the game in the very beginning.
Perhaps add the stuff they made in Wotlk classic with harder normals. Not only felstriker farm until I die.

More QoL's would be much better. The whole SoM ain't "the classic experience" it's actually long awaited classic+.
While I'm agree that Blizzard shouldn't be forced to do something that die very soon, but the SoM opening was nice, it gave me some experience i didn't even expect to get. Big thanks for that

(and as I mentioned above, make sets for each spec different...))

You realize you'd be killing Nefarian each week anyway right? Because you wouldn't have the gear for a buffed AQ if they released it early.

You are right, but doing AQ20 + BWL + trying AQ40 is much better than doing BWL + MC forever. We were stuffed and ready for AQ.
Not to mention that not only our guild disbanded during that time

Circa all asmongold said on his wish list. Classic+ has mega potential.

They will announce SOM 2 when they announce Cataclysm Classic in a few months.
