WOW 

imagine losing a mageblade roll to someone and then they die to drowning damage

Crazy how many HC players seem to not understand mob leashing as a fundamental concept. I mean im not good but i know not to hit stuff while I'm trying to get away

people who choose to play tanks or healers in hardcore and go raiding/dungeoning are insane that's so much pressure lol

These people are asking for it by going so deep into known death traps or really deadly dungeons.

26:30 "When your attack misses 3 times you lose threat" - this sentence makes sense in real life.

It never ceases to amaze me that the absolute worst players are playing the hardest game mode.

So, basically the laser thing is WoW's version of, "Double it and give it to the next person." 😆

"Threat is a skill measure" Most classic replay ever.

Watching people die in a video game as I slowly die a little more inside.

you know that party fucked up when the only person praised for teamplaying is a goddamn rogue

The Ghazrilla explanation was wrong: he was nowhere near the tank in threat. It was a threat reset but his frostbolt was already in the air and hit after the reset

no comment on that warrior opening up his spellbook to cast Piercing Howl?

I have no idea what's going on because I don't play WoW but Asmon is so informative with these videos. Rule 1 - Attacking mobs while running keeps them in combat.

The amount of people who die while running away and continue to attack the mob increasing the leash range baffles me.

We're slowly entering the "let's die on purpose and in the most stupid manner I can think of to appear in one of those videos and Asmon's stream" era

Another episode of "What the fuck is this guy doing here to begin with?!", my favorite show.

Watching streamers make literal Day 1 mistakes is pure *GOLD* . Nostalgia & Disappointment Embodied.

Hardcore is a social experiment to show the world how bad people really are at this game.

The way the first clip was timed made it look like the Chain Heal killed everyone it targeted lol

I played wow 10 years ago and this content is the best by far. Soo much I can relate to 😂

That first one - my goodness. four people 1-tapped.

Aren't level 60 characters immortalized?

Doodi's death was unfortunate. He was obviously new to the fight and didn't know how bad the aggro reset was but it's also the raid leads fault for picking a bad spot to tank the boss.

Dying while running away from a mob is one of the most infuriating things

5:25 mechanical enemies are immune to hamstring, I'm pretty sure

DUDE HE HAS TIER HELMET !??!!

Imagine loosing perditions blade and full MC BIS to a rogue who runs into 2 ony trash mobs on purpose

feign death.... feign death...feign death.................WUT

The worst gamers ever seem to love WoW. I will never understand how so many can be so terrible at such a old game.

Hunters always finding new and imaginative ways to grief.

11:23 to 12:15 clip with the dragons, dude is saying he basically didnt mean to click lmao

NO! Threat is the best thing in Dungeon Classic WoW

That rogue tho !!! 🎉

17:05 he casted a frostbolt right before being knocked up into the air. threat resets and the frostbolt lands, giving him aggro. since there is no verticality for attacks in classic, Ghaz'ranka just onetaps him from below. Painful.

Dude, if I play hardcore, I'm not going in those bug tunnels... Strange stuff happens in those.

Love watching Asmon go over these, he has such a deep and comprehensive knowledge of the game.

dying, but its my fault / ok. dying but the healers fault? pain

to the threat thing, every class has at least one skill to reduce threat so it's up to the other players to control their threat, rogues can feint, priests have fade, druids have cower, hunters feign death, etc. other classes that don't at least have abilities to deal with it like ice block, the only class that maybe is an exception is warlocks but they can sacrifice voidwalker to tank maybe one hit at least.

2:45 This dude was 100% trying to farm a clip by having a close call and fucked it up on accident. Guarantee it.

While some these deaths were a bit bs, it looks like a lot of the boomer hc classic players would have trouble even with retail levelling:P

i know hardcore mode has been a thing since (Diablo?) but you have to be a true masochist to hardcore a MMO

the biggest thing I have learned from these videos is the amount of classic players that still click buttons. Its astonishing

8:30 just did a quest in that cave. Killing the 10 commandos and the 6 casters. I am lvl 39 and don't want to enter this cave further than the first "room". The respawn here is a nightmare. Come prepared or dont go there.

I thought players got better since 2005. I was wrong.

10:31 that's why you don't fight in basements or caves

I feel like 80% of these clips are people purposely dying. Or at the very least. They go into an area, or pull certain mobs that they know will likely get them killed. Then there's some clips like that gnome mage drowning. He knew exactly wtf he was doing. He wanted to get that clip of him barely surviving. The fact that he died even after jumping outa the water kinda sucks, but it shoulda never got to that point.

I have 0 sympathy for the lvl 40 hunter. Classic brain was in control…

Solo warrior in the elite cave at 58 hc... my confident man i /salute you.

Watching that war run hitting the mod not switching to Def stance was best thing I seen in years

Thanks for another great video Asmonbald.

Warcraft Forever: The game begins in the Classic era, with players starting at level 1 and progressing through the various zones and dungeons of the original game. This content is largely unchanged from the original release, with some minor tweaks to balance and quality-of-life improvements. As players reach the endgame of Classic, they can choose to explore any of the three continents: Azeroth, Outland, and Northrend. All three continents will feature level 58+ content with quests that give high-level rewards and unlock certain dungeons and raids. There will be cross-continent questlines that intertwine the stories of all three eras. These questlines will provide a sense of continuity between the different continents and help to flesh out the lore of the game. As players progress through each continent, they will encounter progressively more challenging enemies and bosses. However, there will not be any additional requirements for unlocking content in the later eras of the game. Players can choose to progress through any continent they wish, without being required to complete achievements or quests in earlier eras. Additionally, all gear obtained in earlier eras of the game will remain relevant and useful in later eras. There will be no obsolescence of gear, and players will have incentives to go back and complete older content, such as rare achievements or items that can only be obtained in certain zones or dungeons. Overall, this hardcore version of World of Warcraft would provide a flexible and non-linear experience for players who are looking for a challenging and rewarding experience. By allowing all endgame content to coexist, players will have more options for exploration and progression, and all content will remain relevant throughout the entire game.

the legion clients hyper spawning griefs hardcore players.

As someone who hasn't played WoW in years and has the faintest memories of these boss mechanics, it's great having Asmon doing play by play breakdowns of all these fails

I love how dangerous vanilla is. Starting right from the first zones, there's so much that can kill you FAST if you're careless. Perfect setting for hardcore.

People turning and smacking mobs they’re trying to leash baffles me

“What the fuck was the healer doing “ 😂

@11:03 the mini map for the underground tunnels are so deceiving..

18:55 the other mage got it covered with Ice Block

Threat made balancing dps & survivability of the tank interesting for tank, healers and the dps. I really liked how it’s a thing in classic. The largest downside was thunderfury being a rng thing with too much affect on the raid/guild

8:14 CANT CANT CANT!!!!! he used bubble!!!!!!! cooldown in classic

gotta love when they panic and die when they can live.

Asmon watching HC WoW deaths is some of the best content on YT right now!

That first clip reminds you why hardcore raiding isbso difficult because yes most classic mechanics are simple but you cant wipe and try again

I like how he has the range check in the middle of his screen and totally ignores it lol

WAIT FOR SUNDERS

As someone who is only a couple years younger than Asmon i really love how he took onto WOW.. From day one and is now a wise man with the knowledge people only dream of about WOW. You gotta put RESPECT on his name HES DONE THE WORK! MUCH love asmon your a badass

I haven’t played WoW for a while, but I just love watching Asmongold reacting to classic hardcore fun/dumb moments. Lol, makes me laugh

What kind of software are people using to record their gameplay? I’m thinking about doing this myself

21:53 it's called self care, you learn it when you play healer and other mage used the ice cube

This is literally slow brained almost elderly people who peaked at this game in 2004. Jfc

This content is like Gordon Ramsay watching amateurs cook

In asmonds world, rogues allways plays like a god. Its almost like the class has alot of tools that makes it look good when they press buttons.

SURELY THESE SEA ELEMENTALS WON'T FOLLOW ME INTO THE WATER

As a hardcore player i avoid caves and I always spin my camera around as I'm looting to watch for the terrible respawns.

jumps in water "your in there element" and its a water elemental

the amount of hunters who don't know how to use feign death is too damn high

9:00 bro thought he was Xaryu

You can lay on hands with forbarence? No?

How do these people get to upper 50s and not realize that it's easier to kill 3 normal mobs than to run and die while doing nothing?

Yeah this feels like i'm watching a bunch of old dudes try figure out how a mouse and keyboard works..

that hunter was doing a no weapon no feign challenge i think

That one rogue. Now that's a rogue. 5:59

the warrior in the cave made actual "panic mistakes", and didnt randomly forget how to play the game and start clicking empty actionbar slots. Most of the clips are the latter, completely unskilled, bored out of their mind, just hurts to watch.

i can use Invisible Potion Gordok Mage: no you don´t

9:20 Those mobs are part of the quest, there are waves of mobs, there are spawning right after killing last mob of previous wave. There is queen among mobs that spawned on him. It was the last wave. He should not go on this quest in the first place ... This is especially hard because on the way to quest re-spawn pretty fast too, so you have no way out if something go wrong ...

0:02 WTF jack nicholson!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If I've learned one thing from watching these HC death videos, it's to never do dungeons/raids if I want my character to live.

9:29 I literally died on the same quest on Turtle WoW HC an year or so ago with my hunter 58lvl ... that quest is so hard doing it alone

I love watching HC deaths lol. It shows you how bad players really are even after playing this game for 20 years.

I don't play hardcore so only an outsider looking in, but I thought if you reached 60 you were immortal? Some of these guys are 60, do they have to delete their characters?

The Paladin in Scholomance wasn't self cleansing the disease either.

"ripostay" lol

6:12 free for all challenge.

These are so painful to watch ! Give PTSD from early WoW days.

I understand the appeal of leveling to max with hardcore, however the game ends there, no fucking way I’d spend all that time just to die to a one shot mechanic

This is why I never get mad playing classic. The player base is handicapped mentally

Correct me if I'm wrong, but without Blizzard's support, HC is just an add-on... disable it and proceed with your toon normally after your first death?

Those are the kind of players you face in a BG when you're doing some 1v2's or 1v3's

The best video title for a WoW video

1:54 Not only Feign Death, but what about Shadowmeld?
