The hard-core rules prohibiting trading, auction house and grouping for leveling is because some people could not play as hard-core, die a bunch while farming and trade their gains to other players.
I definitely think the no trading / no auction house / no grouping makes the hardcore experience more fun! Makes sense why it would ruin the fun to just be handed a bunch of nice gear too tbh. Thank you for watching :)
@@linqwow it is man!! me and some friends actually just leveled from 1 when era started popping off again. I’m a couple bars away from lvl 59 and I am actually burned out lol. So I’m staying away from it I think until fresh era comes out!
I clicked this video because right now I’m feeling the opposite. As someone who really just enjoys the og classic experience where the game most feels like you’re in a living world. The space where I can have that traditional non accelerated experience is already gone and I hope it comes back ina similar way to the first classic some day
I love raiding in WotLK but to be honest I am DEFINITELY going to play Vanilla fresh if it ever comes out. Hardcore was fun for a while but I really want the fresh vanilla experience again. I know exactly what you mean about the non accelerated experience and slowing things down. Vanilla wow had a certain magic that has been tough to recapture in other expansions. While I think the raiding is still awesome in WotLK, it just doesnt feel quite as tight knit in the community aspect. There are a lot more interesting interactions between people in vanilla due, just due to how they designed the game. If season of mastery 2 is just Vanilla fresh, I will be rolling day 1. Just not sure if I'm going Warrior, Mage, or Lock :) Thanks so much for watching the video. I think it could be a really great time to play wow if Blizzard plays their cards right this year :)
Both are amazing choices right now! I would say, do you think you want to play ranged or melee? If you lean towards melee, definitely druid. Feral just got buffed and is performing amazingly well. They are in a great spot. You also then have the choice to do boomkin/bear tank/resto druid if you wanted to bring any of that flexibility. Boomkin also pumps the meter hard and doesn't look overly complicated to play. Now if you think you will JUST want to be a caster, I would say maybe lean a bit more towards the shadow priest. Only because I hear it is going to scale better into ICC than Boomkin will (Not a guarantee) and you have the option of Disc/Holy Priest to heal with. Shadow priest going to get you into any Algalon group ever too as you are pretty much needed to guarantee a smooth run of algalon. Then if you decided to heal, Disc is supposed to be somewhat easy, and its sooooo strong. Good Disc Priest / Hpally combo can heal almost anything! Hope this helps you choose! Thanks for watching :)
@@dhoff82 Really you can go either way! If you want to play Feral, I would just go towards gearing Feral from the start. Can get the crafted boots "Footpads of Silence" and then there are BoE belts / cloaks on AH if the prices are good. I'm about to gear my druid for Feral as well!
@@dhoff82 if you want to do feral just do it right away, balance doesn’t get going until you have high crit chance which only boomies in bis ulduar gear are scratching the surface of.
@@DJAeyonaxx it only take 1 week from 1 to 80? i dont believe that. 50 euros for a single character boos is fckign insane. big reason wotlk classic is doing so poorly. beside unbalanced servers that kill world pvp
@@GamingDualities you're aware its the same price for retail right? That 50 is what 2 or 3 hours of work for u at most? Seems the way to go if you don't want to just level. Also you don't have to believe it but took a week and I'm starting my 3rd char today.
Which version of WoW are you currently playing?

Retail Wow is a lot of fun too!
Wow is such a fun game to watch, especially when you're the one doing the videos!
What are you currently doing in retail wow? Mythic +, Raiding, PvP, all of it? I will def make my return to retail wow one day!
anyway great video :) keep it up
Yo thank you! Thanks for coming back to the channel too
Vanilla always! Even though I do miss Wrath sometimes .#NoChangesAlways!
Vanilla really was magic. I want them to do a new SoM or a few Vanilla Fresh servers soon so we can all go back. I think the hype is there!

Torn on playing a druid either dps spec or shadow priest in wotlk, what would u recommend
Both are amazing choices right now! I would say, do you think you want to play ranged or melee? If you lean towards melee, definitely druid. Feral just got buffed and is performing amazingly well. They are in a great spot. You also then have the choice to do boomkin/bear tank/resto druid if you wanted to bring any of that flexibility.

@@linqwow think I'm going druid, you think balance is best to start raising as and collect gear for feral for p3?

It might have been a good time only if the game didnt cost a fortune to play
yeah but why wotlk classic boost so expensive... and msot servers still unbaalnced so world pvp is dead saddly
Don't boost then? Just grinded out another alt in a week.

@@DJAeyonaxx so? that doesnt make it right
@@GamingDualities neither does your laziness about leveling or bitchiness about literally everything.
