TBF I played a lot back in the say w/o plates. For Solo, all it really takes is a good memory, for groups, good coms. You know why I started using plates? Just so I could see enemy PvP players hiding through walls in BG's. Pates, TBH, almost feel like a cheat.
Back in OG vanilla i used blood of heroes for the epic paladin mount. I actually waited for my bubble to be up and I'd bail after each looting because they destroy you even through plate
They also can't swim. The lake in the south has a good amount of spawns even under the water so those are nice and safe. You won't see me clicking one for anything
I played druid in Classic, I opened a blood of heroes and was able to shift form travel escape from him, watched a dude ride over the hill straight into him after I had escaped, felt bad watching him melt, but would have felt more bad if it was now with hardcore.
If you ever open one of those and take the risk - Free action potion, then loot. If you only have one elite, then stun it and book it. If you're a mage like this person - FAP, loot, Frost nova, blink away As long as you have a FAP up which last 30s you should be okay. The slow is what will get you.
That spell reflecting ship captain almost got me too, i pulled him, novad and immediately shot a fireball > fire blast combo at him which he promptly reflected and dropped me to 40% life. Heart rate jumped at least 30bpm
Ya, I didn't even remember that ability, but luckily I'm a druid and I did my civic duty and waited in line. A Warlock was ahead of me and I let him kill him first. Well, I was hitting him with Starfire and Moonfire to help and sometimes I'd get blasted. I was like lolwut? So when it was my turn it was Moonfire tag > Cat Form, lol. Your health comment gives me an old man PvP flashback of STV back in the day. I barely remember the fight now except for some key points, me on my Warrior and I had Spell Reflect (WoLK??), with a Rogue and Druid vs. a Mage and two others which I cannot recall. We focused the other two and the Mage was pretty much free casting. Well...except I'd throw up Spell Reflect once in a while. Everything is a blurr cuz everything happened so fast, but do remember we killed the other two, turned on the Mage and he was 50% health and I asked "why was he only at 50%?" The Rogue and Druid said they didn't touch him and we all speculated that it was Spell Reflect damage, lol. Like Gozu criticizes here, I don't think I had plates up then so I was pretty blind in that fight.
As a mage, if you blink as soon as you loot it, you won’t aggro them. I used to sell the helm enchants they were used for on my mage. Feel kinda bad that he didn’t know though.
Imagine playing all the way to level 51 in classic and still not understanding the game well enough that you actually think you have a shot on a red rare mob.
Wouldn't make sense, its not exploiting anything, the choice for 1 life is theirs, the only legit arguement for it is disturbing gameplay which is extremely vague but good enough to have GM's do something about it when the intention is nothing but clear grief, can be argued its part of the world since its an online game but meh idc. But they definitely should NOT be perma banned, they should be banned for a period of time I suppose but never perma, HC is their choice. Once hc servers are in however everyone is 1 life I suppose so it doesn't matter at that point.
Hahaha that's exactly what happened to me the first time I saw a Blood of Heroes back in the old days too. I was like "Oooh, what's this shiny?" Clicked it. Looted it. Got booty jumped by two elites. Luckily I was a hunter and just feigned death until they despawned but scared the crap outta me
@@thejasiliemetha They do, but it is a threat reduction (like Cover and Feint), not a backwards jump. The latter was added in Wotlk. Still, might have been enough for the pet to pull aggro off of him.
13:35 just standing in there for 3-4 sec+ with half health?! run out, pot, bandage. those guys hurt and can't believe people are risking that kinda play.
You can craft a super power warrior chest piece with those I had it in classic. I forgot how you start to get it but it's kinda rare. It's called like Breastplate of Onslaught or soomething and it is for the Tier 0.5 quests.
So painful to keep seeing people die from not knowing how the daze mechanic works. I mean, sure you can get it wrong (or be too lazy to do it). I got dazed about once or twice since launch two, I think. But you see so many people who clearly do not know how it works and it's just so sad.
It’s so funny just the other day I was thinking about how reaction content soon is just gonna be someone reacting to someone else reacting to a reaction of someone reacting to someone reacting to a clip of someone reacting to a reaction.
What healer class should I roll for classic WoW hardcore? Pally, priest or druid? I have mythic+ and end-game raiding experinece with a resto druid during legion and I did played a disc/holy preist in Cataclysm.
Well, Priest if you want to spend 60 levels Wanding everything to death, Druid if you want spend 60 levels OOM and fighting everything in Cat form, and Pally if you want Autoattack /AFK for 60 levels. 😁
druid is probs the best leveler out of the 3 but also the least preferred and weakest endgame healing class, whereas paladin is the weakest leveler but the more preferred and strongest endgame healer. Priest is about in the middle for both.
@@drafman1 Paladin is absolutely not the weakest out of the three to level. Clearly you’ve never tried to level a priest in classic if you actually think that. Paladin might be boring or repetitive but they easily have the best survivability, plate users, can heal, bubble to get out of any situation, lay on hands. They also have actual aoe and are one of the few classes who can solo many elites and hard to kill quest mobs way above their level. As a priest if your psychic scream fails and your shield gets popped you ain’t living very long. You’re also a cloth user with less mobility and CC than druids or mages, having to rely on wands for the vast majority of damage so you don’t go OOM fighting one or two mobs. Sorry but in no reality is priest better to level, maybe if you just dungeon grind and heal which you can’t do in HC.
I assume they actively setting a precedent before they release classic HC realms so they stop griefing quickly in its track, they sure not want to have a big support staff for all those potential future tickets.
if blizz does official HC servers, "griefing" doesnt need special enforcement... they will be equally invested in a HC character. the meaning of "griefing" really has bene watered down over the years.
Love the 1st clip mage dying and his last words, sounded like a total know it all pos and died to something everybody knows spawns 2 elites LMFAO HOW IRONIC
I would advise you to do it now while it is still community driven. You can appeal deaths due to disconnect and stuff like that. On the official servers that won't be a thing and there will be other ways in which Blizzard will screw it up, like allowing trading, which will attract goldbuyers, which will invite bots and boosters.
New ability: Griefstrike Cast time: Instant Range: Unlimited 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 Melee, Frost, Fire, Shadow, Arcane, and Nature Damage to all Hunters on the aggro table. 😁
Theres still a lot of mobs griefers use that are on the same zone such as stiches, southshore guards, Mai zoth, gnomeragan elites, loch modan elite pat, barrens elite pat and ect
Can't Shadowmeld in combat in Classic. I'm guessing he's feral (most are) so that's prob why he got so cocky w/ his stealth. It didn't help that he just spent 1/2 his mana buffing that other guy, but he still could have lived if he immediately went to Travel Form and left, Shapeshifting out of snares as needed and side strafing. Travel Form uses much less mana than the combat forms. That's one reason I'm balance, I can at least Nature's Grasp one melee instantly if I have to. And my Stealth sux, so I'm not tempted to do that, lol.
dude.... the 2nd clip pisses me off.... its like how the hell can you make it all the way to level 51 and then for some reason you now think you can fight something that is red to you..... its like you were never able to do that... what makes you think you can do it now... just such a massive risk for something that probably wouldn't of been worth the risk
Griefers should have realized you dont want to mess with people promoting the game by streaming it. Blizz isn't dumb, one streamer with a large following is worth more than a thousand griefers.
After 20+ hc characters im finally taking a break and going back to wotlk for a bit. Still love HC but the infinite lines and overpopulation is just getting out of control. Anything pre level 30 is just constant competition for mobs. Hoping hc servers come with layering
Blood of heroes is such a shitty way to die lol I really take for granted playing this game for like 800 yrs and knowing all the hazards but blood of heroes... 😂😂😂
Griefing is just part of the game imo and shouldnt be messed with. if you dont like it, just dont play HC or play on a different server. Not every HC player needs to be on BB
Been there done that. I once had a character that was 50 something level. I was helping a gnome in Un'goro crater find his sword. I had to drink a potion to speak with someone in Tanaris. The potion killed me. I was broken for a month. FWIW, I've been playing hardcore since 2009.
That poor druid would have lived if he didn't help the rogue and saved some mana that he desperately needed later. Altruism almost never pays off, unless it's for show to farm reputation with the audience.
griefing in this sense should not at all be a perma ban. HC wow doesnt exist as a game, or a server, its an addon. With self imposed rules. Not rules written or decided by Blizzard. The "greifing" is using mechanics blizzard intentionally put in the game to kill people. They are LITERALLY playing the game as intended and only the HC community isnt. Do i like HC wow, yes. Do i think the griefing is just part of it, yes. Lets not forget its mostly only streamers getting griefed, welp they ahve all day to play so i dont really feel that bad.
I'm mad because I got banned for deliberately ruining other players experience :'(. I'm sad and bad. If I'm not ruining someone's day, I can't have fun 😭
@@Calandron1 Don't act like you've never intentionally shit on people in video games lol and probably real life. If you wanna spend your time griefing you should be able to, plain and simple. Also there's almost always a way to avoid griefers and if you got got its because you were not paying attention. People are such sissies geez
Imagine falling for a fake ban video lol. You really think blizzard is gonna perm ban people for this so they cancel that sub fee? It’s been this way for twenty years and I guarantee blizzard likes that money more than they care about wow streamer babies
so either blizzard bans the griefer and lose 1 sub, or they don't ban the griefer and the he keeps griefing which creates a president that blizzard won't ban griefers making more people grief because they dont risk getting banned making more people quit because they dont want to deal with getting grifed making blizzard lose potentionally thousands of subs, yeah i think they really care about 1 sub so they wont ban him, sure.
Blizzard also likes having Their Official Hardcore servers succeed so they can attract back players who have cancelled their subscription, and if they have griefers around on launch on forced permadeath with zero appeal processes, the servers are gonna be dead the moment first griefers get vanish on rogue or feign death on hunter. So, the closer we get to launch, the more likely it is that the Doomhammer is coming down hard. On the other hand, the business logic that Blizzard is permitted these days is probably more on the quick cash grab side of things, so maybe they'll have their hands tied by corporate bs, as you suspect.
The goal of the griefers is to get people to quit. That's subscription fees that Blizzard is losing too. When they get someone like Asmon to quit that's a significant number of other people that will quit or not come back to the game. The subscription income from the griefers is insignificant compared to those they are chasing from the game.
I think griefers getting banned is absolutely absurd, they are literally playing the game that Blizzard designed and not cheating or taking advantage of unintended game mechanics at all. Now, I think they're fucking stupid but you fix that by making hardcore servers not banning people for playing the game. Frankly that just makes me hate blizzard even more, especially since it's only because these guys were trolling their precious streamers.
