Yeah man. Nobody liked it back in vanilla either. The idea of rolling an alt was always accompanied with, "...but, barrens chat -_-"
>>
>>343749312
I tought the same as a perosn that never played vanilla - I've started mid TBC, played until the end - skipped wotlk for thinking it went in a different direction and sucking very much... played a month on cataclysm and regretted it - then played half of pandaria and it was as enjoyable as the first days in tbc.

But also in the time from that 1 month in cataclysm and pandaria - I've played vanilla on a private server.... well it was above every other experience, the game felt much more polished - and genuinely had more fun.

It's clearly not nostalgia - vanilla was truly a great game and totally different from modern wow, tbc maybe it was a little like that - but it obviously took the experience in a new world, with different art style - more homogenized classes paladins in horde, shamans in a alliance - and the overall quality of quests and lore was shittier compared to vanilla - but still the same shit.

kronos is very good it has 2-3k on avarage on kronos 2 ream which is pvp.

A very healthy population which is perfect for vanilla.

BUT it's vanilla... with 1x

so in order for you to reach 1-60 If you dedicate yourself and follow the best guide there is - it's also implied that you already have leveling experience and know the fastest routes - if you do everything absolutely efficient and you play 10 hours / day it will take you 19 days if you play 3 hours / day and again if you do everything right it's 62 days.

I really wish there was an x3 xp or more vanilla server, or one like c-wow where everything was blizzlike except you started as level 60.
>>
Was there any zone that Cataclysm improved, as opposed to ruin completely? Because I'm doing a nostalgia run in WoW now and the new zones are largely worse than before and the new quests are terrible and full of memes. Oh .and they flooded 1K Needles

aesthetically yes - lore wise not really, it was downgraded.
>>
>>343749386

The aesthetic changes were dumb anyway, putting a crater in Westfall and not having any quests related to it? Then they separated STV by putting a crater in the centre but all it does is confuse new players as where to go next.

>>343752416
For the times when cataclysm got released, the models felt like an improvement tho.
But I agree - I could use my imagination and ENB filter in vanilla to improve the looks and then I would still prefer them over what happened in cataclysm.

But most importantly the whole quests felt like some brain-dead hurried shit...

And if you played casually it took around 30 days to reach level 80.. yea...

Yall niggas cray

Nelf zones were the best. I laugh at all the people who played generic human race in their generic leveling environments.
>>
>>343752251
I felt the majority of Cataclysm quests were better when you're playing solo. I liked a lot of the quests because I thought they had interesting dialogue, stories, and various objectives. Although the biggest downside to the 1-60 leveling experience is that everything was designed around a single player, there were no class quests, you level up way to fast, you're more streamlined into the next zone of your level, and it got a lot easier than vanilla.

>full of memes
Blizzard games have always had memes and pop culture references, specifically the Warcraft series so I don't see any reason to start complaining now.
>>
>>343753272
I'm talking not only from memories but from experience from last week - I'm leveling human on alliance.

Nelf is just boring ( quest texts, targets ) - but aesthetically yea it's fine I guess, they're cool.

It's all about - oh help us, work for us like a slave to help us lazy race establish a new home in this zone.

Yeah most of them changed , not drastically but a bit. They changed the undead starting area and their quests, the gnomes start in the gnomeregan area now I think , human have changed quests with thedefias and the starting area is smaller . Tauten have different quests and the area has changed a bit too

I vaguely remember this, having trouble remembering why it was necessary though. Remind me?

I remember being a night elf hunter and travelling all the way to Mulgore to catch The Rake before Blizzard homogenised attack speeds, that was a journey. Pic related, I was ganked and corpsecamped and these night elf elite bros came to help, I thought there was a system in place where your faction spawned to save you or some shit.

No, but leveling shouldn't be a focus of the game.

One of the problem with the way people complain "leveling sucked" in vanilla WOW is they kept viewing the game as an ARPG and not an MMORPG, the main course was doing quests and exploring the world, not grinding.

Still fun for me.

Had a 60 priest, warlock, mage, rogue and hunter in vanilla. Then a bunch of other characters at 40-50.

>>343756134
There weren't a lot of zones you could skip in vanilla. You could skip the starting zones of other races, and then one of the following zones, but after that you had to do basically every zone unless you grinded tons or did each dungeon 10 times.

>Also professions would eat up a ton of exp too.
?
>>
>>343756129
Not really a commitment . Levelling is easy when I know what I'm doing , I could play an hour or few a day and level at good pace. I know when to grind and I know where to go . It's raiding that takes commitment

PlayTBC hahahahahaha

I remember that craze, ran by a bunch of 14 year olds and never even launched . People took days off work to play and shit lol.

But PlayTBC was after nost died , so they were forced to server hop.

And they are major autists, check the general it's all avatar fagging and circle jerking
>>
>>343756337
Doesn't matter how good you are, you can't go faster than the xp quests gives, traveling times and other factors an average for someone dedicated to leveling is 188 hours.

That is 19 days with 10 hours / day or 60 days with 3 hours / day.

How did healers level up in vanilla?

Spamming Smite and Wrath?
>>
>>343756486
You didn't level with a healing spec.
>>
>>343756486
mind blast, shadow word pain, mind flay
>>
>>343756331
Well the 30-40 bracket was admittedly the "fuck this' bracket, but we had SM to grind to get through that hell bracket, but once you hit 40 you got feralas, tanaris, hinterlands, and 50-60 you had WPL, EPL, Searing Gorge, burning steeps, blasted lands, ungoro.

Also most professions required you to farm nodes, nodes were usually surrounded by enemies, mining especially was best farmed in caves I remember spending half a week farming copper and tin and gnolls for cloth in redridge
>>
>>343756424
Yeah but I won't be wasting time doing the wrong stuff for example . And ill grind out rather than quest , much more effective and efficient , as well as knocks off some of the stuff you just mentioned
>>
>>343756540
If you're a NEET you're not going to any problem doing it. Otherwise it's not worth it - unless you don't care it will take 2 + months to reach level 60.
>>
>>343756486
Priests spammed smite and shadow word pain, or joined a group

Paladins auto attacked everything to death and took no damage so there was no eating/drinking periods to make up for the slowness that was paladin damage

Shaman and druids eventually got some good damage dealing abilities.

Also you didn't need to spec into healing to heal.
>>
>>343756486
You didn't. You specced to a damaging spec.

Perfectly fine
You could still kill mobs in the healer spec or heal in the dps spec(even high lvl dungeons in the feral)
But of course it's hard for the wotlk kids to understand

Shamans got a big 2h weapon and windfuried everything.

I think they could pull more mobs and consecrate & reckoning to speed up the process later on. But that may have been more a post leveling grind strat.
>>
>>343756486
I grinded as a restro shaman. Basically, you just throw down your mana and health regen totems in an area, engaging 3~4 mobs while topping yourself up. Zero down time due to self heals.
>>
>>343756684
that's a matter of opinion
i leveled as a holy paladin with a two-hander and it was slow but steady
i'd grind until i was at 20% hp and then get a free crit heal holy light back to 100% and rinse repeat, no drinking or eating
wasn't fun tho or fast

>>343756684

Unfortunately, the quests didn't give you enough exp to skip any of these zones, except for the ones that barely had any quests (WPL, Blasted Lands). I leveled to almost 60 (like 58) on nost not too long ago, and couldn't afford to skip any of them, even though I did some grinding too. Also, searing gorge is 45+ rather than 50+.

You'd generally be okay with your professions as long as you paid attention while questing.
>>
>>343756868
So what happened to Salty Dogs. They all played on Nost, left when it died and tried to get onto PlayTBC, and then all went to different servers ?
>>
>>343756919
so 3 months and 14 days until you reach 60, then half a year to gear up.

I think it's better to stick with the memories dude - the player-base on kronos 2 is pretty edgy - more than 50% of server is underage and the rest that are mature have the average of 21.

Wasn't ideal. Usually I got a buddy. I tended to skip the more heavy grind quests too so I didn't waste too much time.

>>343756642
Highlight is always finding the elevator for the first time, but yeah after that it gets stale. Always felt they should've increased the claustrophobic feel of it by lowering the ceiling and getting rid of the green slime moats.

>>343756734
It was tolerated because it was fun. The time it takes to go from 1 to 60 was reduced 75% in Cataclysm but it's more of a chore now than ever before, simply because there's nothing interesting or engaging about.

Yea, but after the singleplayer experience of so many beautiful games released in the meanwhile - it's not fun anymore.

I'd rather invest 90 hours in fallout new vegas at this point than into 188 in wow and have 10 times more fun.
>>
>>343756737
>reckoning
Not only was reckoning a prot talent that you wouldn't spec into while leveling (ret is faster), but reckoning was also basically useless for pve. Mobs have a base crit rate of what, 5%, to an equally leveled player? That combined with an average swing speed of 2s, you'd get crit once every 40 seconds with a single mob. Add another enemy and you get an extra swing every 20 seconds, add one more and you get one every 13 seconds, fourth one and you get one every 10 seconds though you're probably dying at that point.

I played on Nost and it was great , near as good when I played vanilla , though I was much younger and didnt understand much.

Youre not one of those guys who complains about "toxicity" are you ? People said Nost had a shit community but I had no problem .

From the world record on leveling alliance lmao - also used the number of time it takes for 1-60 by online shops which sell powerleveing to vanilla and done the average.
>>
>>343757220
>fourth one and you get one every 10 seconds though you're probably dying at that point.
The friends I saw do it didn't have any problem tanking more mobs than that, but I think it was post 60 gold grind and not leveling, so may have simply not been a thing paladins could do for leveling.
>>
>>343757314
Nost community was much better compared to kronos - I mean I never used the word toxic community before playing on kronos... nostal was totally fine - made some friends there.
>>
>>343757223
A few of them are on Kronus now aren't they ?

When Nost started I joined the /vg guild and it was just people throwing memes and the word cuck every other word. I left quickly and found another comfy guild .

I remember there were some creatures in blasted lands, who could only die if you killed a seperate unit which functioned as some kind of ward for them.
So there was a guy who kited one of those guys all the way into ironforge.
So an immortal creature was running around attacking people there.

I'm okay with going to multiple zones to quest, but you literally have to finish all of them in order to get enough EXP
Dungeons are also pointless and aside from a few popular ones, you can't make a party

Been in the game since release, though I can't remember how it worked at first. Can only remember the patch 1.4+ version (30-point talent, had like a 30 seconds cooldown).

>Patch 1.4.0 (2005-05-05): Now causes an explosion of holy light around the caster, causing Holy damage to all enemy targets within 10 yards and healing all party members within 10 yards. These effects now cause no threat as opposed to reducing threat temporarily.
