Won't mean anything to most, but this is an achievement I got with my first and only toon on the server at level 50 with no handouts. Gold I made myself, mostly via the AH.

Classic + "enhance familiar landscapes"

Post image
127 Upvotes

They’re either talking about using new/modern graphics and models in a vanilla world,

or “familiar landscapes” might refer to places we’ve already visited in retail, like Northrend, the Dragon Isles, or Kul Tiras, but reimagined with vanilla aesthetics.

The word “enhance” makes me lean more toward the former than the latter.

Classic-Era The beauty of low level classic

46 Upvotes

Hi loves!

I’ve been playing exclusively with my husband in TBC Classic, and we even did arena together. But recently, the game has somehow lost its fascination for us. We’re more or less just logging in out of habit, and neither of us really enjoys the big raids.

Maybe Zul’Aman will bring us back.

For now, we’ve actually gone back to regular Classic. We both started on Firemaw as Tauren Horde — I’m playing a Shaman and my husband a Tauren Warrior. We’re taking it completely stress-free, with no pressure or goals.

And honestly, I had forgotten how beautiful the low-level game is.

The zone design, the stories, the slower pace, the simpler gameplay… it just feels different. We’re questing together, meeting and interacting with other players, and later on we’ll do some PvP together too.

I can’t wait to experience all those low- and mid-level dungeons again: Scarlet Monastery, Uldaman, Zul’Farrak, and all the Blackrock dungeons — with BRD being my absolute favorite.

So, if you’re getting annoyed or burned out by the high-level game, maybe take a break and go back to the beginning.

Just enjoy the world, the quests, the dungeons and the people you meet along the way.

Classic is still an amazing game.

I divorced my wife and am planning on using at least 13 days of PTO when the game releases. I’ve already bought XL Huggies Diapers with Elastic Band included so I can relieve myself at least 3 times before needing to change. I’m planning on being the first level 60 on the server. What about you guys

Xaryu obviously part of this showcase. This looks like it will be a classic plus demo showcase with creators a lot like they did with SoD Before.

Looks like the rumors about a playable blizzcon demo were correct, does this mean the release date could be this year as well?

What else would they be showcasing in WoW besides classic plus? Maybe a new plunderstorm? lmao

TBC Flames of Azzinoth Practice Mini Game

A nice little mini game to help your Fire Resist tanks practice Flames of Azzinoth positioning and eye beam avoidance: https://enhance-tide.github.io/flamedance/ Lots of configurable options to practice certain scenarios and increase the difficulty once you get the hang of it! Hopefully this helps your raid wipe less on Illidan!

Discussion Why do people say “no new classes, they’re too hard to balance!” as if classic even cares about balance in the first place

99 Upvotes

They should add one new class every 5 years or so. New classes and/or specs are hype and help grow the world. Classic has never been balanced, so why do we all of a sudden care about it when it comes to adding new classes? Make it make sense please

Classic-Era Cool gold making things you did in classic (while leveling).

57 Upvotes

When I played in 2019 on a fresh server I specifically had 2 gold making methods to help me buy lvl lvl40 and 100% mount. I based my engineering idea specifically for alliance. There was a quest in Duskwood in the town that required a "bronze tube" to complete. The vendor next to the quest would sell but always was sold out. I sat in duskwood for like the first 3 days of release spamming the duskwood zone chat about selling bronze tubes between 20-50s each. I was selling more than I could make by a huge margin. Id get 2-5 whispers for a bronze tube every zone chat message I sent. By the time I left duskwood I already had around 60g.

My second idea was crafting "salt shakers". This particular item let leatherworkers cure their rugged leather once every 3 days. This was needed to create BiS leather set items before raiding opened. I was selling Salt shakers between 10-30g. I wasnt that much of a farmer so I only was making 1-2 salt shakers a day. The profession level needed to make the salt shaker was pretty high for engineering so it wasnt super easy to level up to that in the first week or so. Gave a nice barrier to entry.

What were yalls funny gold making strats?
