    So, I just resubbed...

    To play Season of Mastery. I'm just a sucker for Classic, for me still the best version of WoW (okay, maybe TBC because classes got improved).

    What can I say, starting as Night Elf on Teldrassil is just so nostalgic. I hope they restore the tree in the future retail.

    I'm glad you're able to find joy in the experience. When I tried out classic, I felt that for a moment, but then I just felt sad. All the potential the game had. All the hope we had for its future. All the friendships that had yet to be made and lost. Playing the game as it was would never recapture any of that. I don't think I made it out of STV.

    No, it's something made to look like a weapon, for instagram selfies. That thing isn't a weapon. It's balance is probably all shot to hell as well.

    Okay, agreed, it's a classical wall hanger.

    I generally don't mind the skull iconography but the positioning of it is what gets me.

    Why there? Only way others see the skull is if it is being hung limply in your hand.

    Honestly, similar, except Handsome Squidward.

    Sadly I think it's probably gone for good, at least as far as the tree goes.

    Maybe we could explore what's left of it as a dungeon or raid or something.



    Might pop into SoM at some point in the future. Once I'm done with Endwalker and once Kotick is fired.

    I don't mind the mace looking impractical. The majority of WoW weapons are, but just put the skull on the side, man.

    It looks like a shield on a stick. Honestly, I rarely complain about stuff like this (I'm willing to suspend disbelief in fantasy franchises), but I can't even imagine a fantasy world in which someone looks at that and thinks it would be a good weapon relative to any other choice.

    I mean you could use the spike as a spiked weapon against armored enemies.

    Although, warglaives are a hundred times more impractical than that thing.

    On the "top" of the weapon, though? When he swings that thing, he's going to be hitting with the jaw of the skull.

    Ah, the only thing missing from Classic was really just the friendships and the community, but everything else was pretty spot on for me when I played it at launch in 2019.

    The game I imagined that we might have in twenty years is very different from the game we actually got. There have been a few moments of realizing that potential, but by and large...

    We're probably looking at 2 weeks out.

    Would put it right next to Endwalker which is probably what Blizz wanted anyway.

    I still can't believe they really will have the next content patch on live servers just in March. That means 9-10 months of 9.1.

    Yeah I'm much the same, weapon design doesn't bother me in general (so long as it looks cool) but there's something about it that puts me off.

    I think part of it is also where exactly you hit someone with it. There's that glowing blue spike but its position out of the forehead indicates (and the picture of the Jailer holding it shows) that that would be the backside. There is a spike off the chin but it doesn't feel quite like that's the part to hit with.

    Basically you'd be smashing the tip of the skull's chin into someone. Just doesn't seem right.

    I mean that is just the model holding the weapon stupidly. I'm not saying it would be practical, but you can certainly hit someone with that ugly ass thing.
