no ptr today according to towelliee

It's kind of funny because he clearly knew nothing about this or that they were gonna announce it today.

He didn't even said no ptr today, people just spread some bullshit. xD

[Kiivar86]

Not having to level up in the Dragon Isles?
Getting to level in Pandaria all the way?
Faster than normal?
Cool abilities and transmog?
Some kind of Xal'atath involvement?
Keep everything?

Sign me the heck up.

I don't mind leveling in the Dragon Isles myself but this'll still be nice. And collecting transmog, titles, and mounts is my thing so this is totally up my alley.

I'm still amused at how I was thinking the idea of "timewalking" an expansion sounded dull and yet here I am, excited.

I hope this becomes a thing, even if it means that maybe Warlords of Draenor remix is next (which, to be fair, I did enjoy leveling up in at the time)

imagine believing what towellie says lol

[Makabreska]

Hmmm. It's a separate mode, but addons would kinda have to be allowed there somehow.

If it works then it sounds like the kind of thing I would want for every expansion.

[Dracullus]

By the way, could all these TBC recolors be for future TBC Remix? Or Pride event still sound more likely?

It would be good experiment if they weren't.

[Valysar]

Addons will be available I suppose

[Makabreska]

It would be good experiment if they weren't.

Ummm, don't think so. Game and content was already complicated enough back then. And experiment for what? For forcing some addons out in future retail? Waaay to late for that.

The game was complicated, sure. But you don't know how easy the raids will be with the abilities given. Going by the theme of speed running the expansion I would hazard a guess that you don't get even close to "difficult" bosses until HC Lei'shen or Garrosh, and probably not even then.

Imagine playing a spec, keeping up with a rotation w/o any addons. That's what I'm mainly talking about. People who relied on them for years, suddenly having to play w/o them.

Fire mage Combustion gameplay in MoP was this - stack up high Ignite, then press Comb to snapshot and duplicate the dot. Good luck without an Ignite indicator. Or try to react to 4 sec Unerring Vision proc w/o any addons.

Probably. I have to assume they have plans for doing a remix for every expansion eventually.

Is Pandemonium supposed to last 6 weeks, like Plunderstorm? I suppose it's possible it ends when the pre-patch happens, which could be as early as mid-June.

A shiver ran down my spine when I realized there's a chance WoW Remix uses Plunderstorm's truncated 7 button actionbar

Uh, no. There isn't. We will be playing normal classes there.

[Ersula]

Uh, no. There isn't. We will be playing normal classes there.

I saw how overpowered those items are. It's possible they reduce all the classes to 7 button kits.

On MoP??? MoP was perhaps the most bloated WoW classes ever have been

There is not going to be a prepatch in mid June. From the Roadmap its obvious that TWW is scheduled for late September so prepatch in late August. 10.2.7 is probably in late may/early june so my guess is its gonna run around 8-12 Weeks.

Absolutely have no idea what are you talking about and how you came to that conclusion.

Is this the notorious Ersula Moment™?

[justwatching]

It's obviously just going to use Retail Classes.

[allegrian]

Hmm don't know what class to play, should I just play a copy of my main or try an alt? I assume the class gameplay will be from retail and not mop classic style.

I imagine I will have to wait and see what the game mode looks like when it's closer to release to be sure. My initial reaction is to play Evoker, but maybe I will try something else depending on what kind of non-class abilities will be important.
