Yeah, real shame about the skellies. It actually takes away a big part of the vanilla experience by removing it, or lessen the amount of corpses.

It screams investor meddling to me. They're trying to head off the possibility of some shit-tier rag posting pictures of people spelling out NIGGER or something and demanding action, I'd bet.

Btw, the devilsaur mafia only worked on private servers because of collusion between factions, which won't fly on official servers.

I'll believe that when i see it.

In other news, nu-Blizzard unable to help themselves from doing weird shit that makes no sense that's only going to piss off people for no reason:



People say it's because of China but there's already a Chinese client that removes all skeletons and i can definitely believe modern Blizzard is that retarded they'd remove skelly corpses just to prevent people from writing nigger or whatever the fuck.

Skelly corpses is the only way to spot gang spots go go tr00 vanilla experience rite there hey Blizzard?

They didn't remove skeletons.

Q: Will the Skeletons that appear when someone dies be the same as it was originally? Right now they disappear after you die again, they used to stay longer than that.

A: While we understand that this was a flavorful part of Original WoW and the earlier expansions, individual players leaving multiple player corpses and skeletons throughout the game world can lead to behavior such as spelling out advertisements, hate speech, and other negative messages. As such, this will not be a part of WoW Classic.

It's changing layers so you don't have to wait for respawns. They can easily stop this by not having layers in Un'Goro, if they have layers after the starting zones at all.
I didn't need an explanation of his words. I asked what the exploit was TO CHANGE FUCKING LAYERS.

If it's "unlog, log to another char, unlog again, log back to original char", then it's been fixed.

So what the fuck is the exploit? Huh?

The idea behind layers was to keep an excess of players from overflowing a single zone and lagging the server, right? I think layering should only even turn on if there are a certain number of players in the zone. So unless people are planning on intentionally manipulating the layering system to spawn extra devilsaur in UG by bringing a shitload of people there, I doubt it'll be an issue.

But hell, if it makes devilsaur leather cheaper than like 50g a pop I'm fine with it. I think you need 14 for both pieces.

That is devilsur leather used for anyways? Can't remember.

Mandatory pre-raid + to hit gear for Rogues and other melees. I remember paying like 300 gold when i got it on my Druid on Elysium. In materials because i had a friend who made them for me.

Dawkinsfan69 is a poster I initially thought was a latent homosexual, but over time I grew to love as a brother. It's like we were both staring death in the face back in Vietnam. Those fuckin' zipperheads will never take me alive.

Sorry my dudes, but at 15 euros a month i'm going to have to pass this one. I'm here just for the drama when they'll inevitably fuck it up.

Anyone know what kind of Alterac Valley will be in classic? The long epic 3 day one, with npcs, quests etc, or the nerfed boring one?

The one with the reinforcements was introduced in TBC if I'm not mistaken, so I'm pretty sure it's going to be without them. Don't expect 3-day long battles, though, even more than 30ish minutes is a rarity.

Because most people rush the objectives and don't have the patience for anything more. This is a good thing, trust me.

How many 3-day battles can you take before you say to yourself "I just need the rep, damn it"?
