Its funny to see VANILLA pvp vid\pov when only viable classes for pvp :Rogue,Warrior,Mage; comments to warrior pvp when he killed 1vs5 low lvl or equal warlocks 1vs5 =
MAN you so cool keep it up...... LEL. Some kids just wonna play over powered sh`t and be LIKE bAUss. Lets see class population when blizz release classic server, i pity these who gona play mere pleb classes to fight OP shit like raid bosses) without even BG to hide .
40% of server warriors vs 2% warlocks...... its gona be sh`tfest)
Doubt it, at least not for long term. There might be some at first when the current crop of entitled players hop on the classic servers and find out its not raining epics like in retail. These player types will probably quit in short order and stick to regular WoW, while whatever oldschool types classic brings back will most likely stick.
I hope they add Titanforging and LFR into Classic just to see the saltstorm that comes from the purists.
I was totally flashed after I have seen a video of a guild clearing a raid dungeon in vanilla (Irae AoD BWL clear). I never set foot in a raid dungeon at this point. It changed my life entirely and I felt in love with raiding for a decade. I immediatly joined a BWL guild (without any raid experience) and after some weeks I was a part of the nefarian server first kill xD. Most players don't like AQ, but both raids were the absolute best experience in my whole wow life. Not only the raids itself, but also the scepter quest chain (our guild opend the gate on the server) and the opening. Nice experience.
From the perspective we had back in the days, there was nothing comparable, so you just took it without questioning. Compared to later states of the game, vanilla raiding was a nightmare.
For me, the main attraction of vanilla would be dungeon crawling. Those are probably my best memories of vanilla. I raided for most of vanilla, it was ok, but raiding really didn't get amazing until TBC where it really took off. TBC cleaned up much of vanilla's raid shortcomings and the raid instances themselves were a lot more interesting (imo). If anything my opinion of a 'classic' remake would be something in the TBC vein if we're looking for end game sticking power.
But changes wouldn't make it better. You'd start down a slippery slope. See, if you make Retri Paladins better in pvE they also become even stronger in PvP. And if you buff Paladins in PvE you should also ban Hunters in PvE since their DPS is also sub par. And so on and so forth until it's not Vanilla anymore.
