So many warriors. Aren't they the suicide class in the beginning?

Warriors suck until ~level 30-40 in Vanilla and are extremely gear dependant. But if you can get one up and geared, they're basically unstoppable with a pocket healer.

The high stakes in hardcore made gankers very motivated to come up with creative ways to trick people into marking themselves for pvp (mainly by posing as generic quest mobs, lol).

just play a priest and forget to heal people in a dungeon

oh man that sounds so good
does anyone know if blizz bans healers for "forgetting" (or hearthing out mid-fight or something) ? sounds like something they would do

They do. Don't remember where I read/heard it tho. Most likely some Asmo video.

Thing is, a lot of their warnings/bannings are AI done. So even if you just piss off a group of friends (or if you and your group of friends) want to mass report, it will work, at least in the interim. As for forgetting to heal, it would work against you in an HC situation. The mobs will eventually come to get you, most likely 2nd on the threat list when the tank dies. You better have an escape plan if you are planning that. Bubble hearth for Paladins is not a thing in HC. Light of Elune might work.

I broke down and decided to play this. Been having a pretty fun time playing as a dwarf priest on Defias Pillager. Had a few close calls but no deaths yet, level 26. The closest call I had was a huntard forgetting to dismiss their pet at the end of Deadmines and aggroing half the final room when you jump down to fight Cookie.

Hell yeah man. Sounds like fun. If you are inclined, give a melee class a try too. Can be interesting.

what kind of ADHD do you need to have to level an alt while you are tanking an instance.

Well, now he can alt-tab between leveling two alts. Win!

I think you misunderstand what "hardcore" WoW means.

gonna have to explain it to me champ

 

[Alienman]

This one was really funny. Streamsniper wastes ton of time and in-game (maybe even real) money to kill a streamer for it to not work out so well for him.

A Frenchman was forced to surrender? Imagine my surprise.

After 1.5 years I reached BIS on Warmane's no-P2W server Lordaeron with a fresh character that joined a new guild and progressed from 0/12 ICC to everything with it.

Some Ship of Theseus stuff, there's only me and 2 other guys left of the original roster. Now if only I could quit.

 

[volklore]

I think I'm addicted to HC wow classic death videos.
Seeing all people die amd lose characters multiple hundreds of hours in to dumb shit is just so fuckiing cathartic

 

[KeighnMcDeath]

Well…. This be old but it is as good as it gets!

“Hmmmmm…..”

I'm thinking of starting a new lvl 1 character, anyone wanna join me (if you're in Oceania region)?

Not playing on Oceania here. But what did you decide on for your class?

 

[Vic]

been playing on warmane lordaeron for last couple years now

started doing ICC with my rsham, but main is pally where I'm just dicking around. got almost full relentless pvp gear and should probably start doing arena for wrathful. spent a lot of time farming adder's tongue with crusader aura+310% store mount, about 2k gold/hour. farmed up a bunch of gold that I sold for coins, intending to buy a BiS char on icecrown for pvp, but lost interest. Now I'm just playing twinks doing quests while listening to music every now and then. Got probably 100k worth of mats like primos, gems, etc. stashed in addition to the coins I got from selling gold.

this game is the game of my young adult years, I've spent so much time in it and it never gets boring.

It finally happened, my hardcore priest died at level 36. I made the foolish mistake of teaming up with a paladin for a cave quest. We were doing OK until we got to the boss of the quest, a level 40 elite. I said we should cut our losses and leave, but he wanted to give it a go. So we did, but the damage wasn't nearly enough to bring him down. Pally tried to run and I did the same, but there was no hope. Got swarmed and died.

After that I took a little break and rerolled as a dwarf hunter. On my priest, I'd been lucky enough to get a blue BoE gun, which I stored safely on my bank alt, so it was a nice starting gift for my hunter to get going. Now at 26 and still going strong.
