I came back basically as soon as I saw the Taran Zhu vs Garrosh trailer, and that was one of the first things I saw when I got to Timless Isle. It inspired me to being a tank main again (Leveled a Lock in MoP because I could unlock Green Fire).

In WoTLK 3.1, I cross-specced my Tankadin into the Ret tree, picking up every critical strike talent I could get. I had my gear chanted for Agility to pick up the Dodge, +1000 armor and what the Devs claimed was "Melee" critical strike, except it worked for everything because Holy damage was insanely considered melee damage! Don't ask me why! And that was back when the Devs said Dodge wouldn't work against magic attacks, but it did. In raids, my Paladin Tank had around 34% crit, 34% dodge, and since I was full heroic gear, my strength was off the charts at a time that parry as a stat-buff had diminishing returns, but parry from strength had no limit. Only Druid tanks had more dodge than me, and with my tons of block, parry and armor, my entire raid could die and I could fight on for many minutes. The Sindragosa fight was giving our raid problems, and I heard from a Euro guild that Blizz didn't' actually get rid of ice-resist, they just retired that lvl 80 gear, so I put a few pieces on and when my raid died, I fought the dragon for about 4 minutes BY MYSELF and killed her. No hot keys or macros, just sweat, mashing keys and Big Dicking it. WoTLK was fun man, real fun!

The Borrowed power system in each expansion has been in some way what the major glyphs were meant to be, but instead of being tied into player interaction, and crafting, they are tied into an end game system loop that you must perform to be able to stay relevant at the end game.

I wish they would add more glyph customization into the game. So many players feel like copies of each other in terms of talents/gear ect. Glyphs bring in cool cosmetic customization. Glyphs like changing which Water Elemental you summon are awesome. I would love to be able to choose more elemental models shamans summon, or if my Paladins "Holy" spells take more of a "Fire" aesthetic.

The most OP ability, which took them actually awhile to take out, was the vengeance buff for tanks in arenas. I used to sell carries and pretty much solo 2's as blood dk in cata for most of the expansion, hitting ppl with 128-132k hp for 60k death strike. And runner up was the spriest shadowy apparitions in MoP, again it took them forever to take out but i used to kill ppl in duels after the duel finished 80% of the time.

@D1str1ct 3 жыл бұрын

I remember in MoP being a spriest with fear, fear fiend (AoE fear), horror and silence. Having feather and spectral guise, so you could stealth into a group, cast fear to scatter them all then plant fear fiend and separate the entire group and burn them down. Also having instant casts quite alot from procs and having feather constantly up lol. I would always, nearly all the time, be at the top of the list in bgs with most kbs, highest damage and hks, it was really bad. Devouring plague back then was amazing as well.

pre WoD Second Wind should be on this list. it regenerated like 3% health every 2 seconds, if you popped defensive stance you become just broken af

@Fr33mx 3 жыл бұрын

It was 3% every second and it was hella nerfed in PvP alongside every other healing. It was multiplied by 0,4 and then it was multiplied by the amount of PvP you had, in Late MoP it was like 60 or something% pvp power you had. So overall it was a 1% max health regeneration every second. Not really that OP if I'm honest. It doesn't save you from getting oneshot by a Shatter in 3s in their second or third Deep freeze window, I can tell you that much. Defensive stance itself was a joke. It was 25% damage reduction and the rage it cost you to use wasn't even comparable to the profit you had using it. But I'd argue it was necessary since warriors were squishy with no self healing and only one major Defensive ability(shieldwall) which was on a 3m cooldown(5min if glyphed) and one minor Death by the sword which was only effective while you're not stunned. So nah, warriros were fine. However they had way too much CC, that is a fact. Two interrupts, two stuns on a short cd, two charges(that also stun), root, fear, silience(though it got removed due to being hella op) it all was way too much for a single class. I prefer WotLK utility kit over this abomination.

Warlock's Kiljaedens Cunning first version was more OP than the one shown in video, the first version was just a passive with no CD so you could always cast on the move then they turned it into increased cast time while moving then eventually into the version show in the video. I still have vivid memories doing Heart of Fear Raid and playing as Afflic Lock and just moving all the time and be pheremone target on Garalon since I couild always cast on move. I believe Symbiosis was removed because of Warlocks and Resto Shamans, Warlocks received Rejuv as their Sym skill and it was broken in raids, you almost never needed a healer. If you talented into Burning Rush, Rejuv could offset the health cost. Resto Druids got Spiritwalker's grace from Shams and they could cast Tranq while moving.

Cause 80% of the time, while soloing, you couldn't even fucking USE your New-Expansion-New-Level-Cap-Class-Skill. But in Raids? Oh jesus. I was a Guardian Tank, and I always used to give it to DPS warriors, so I can give them Stampeding Shout (not as good as Stampeding Roar, only 10 yards radius instead of 30, but still).

If they made wands relevant, activate on right click like a bow or normal weapon, maybe dual wieldable on certain specs, and castable while moving this would make casters less angry about losing all their mobility since even if it is a DPS drop into the basement, it gives you something to do. Plus if they brought back resistances, you could mix and match wands until you got a little higher dps through the elemental damage.

You choose one of three every 15 or so? The talent trees in classic were one of the best parts!

@@aeggeska1 when you popped Aura Mastery , 15% of all the healing you did in the next 8 seconds was being replicated to everyone inside your aura (60 yards with rule of law). But in legion our holy shocks could do 20m crits etc. So in these 8 seconds NONE would die. The less health your target had, the more healing your AoS would do since the only thing that kept your AoS low was the overheating. That's why in KJ mythic we were doing insane amounts of hps with AoS , because the healings adds had 30m hp and if you were lucky you could heal all 4 of them in 2 seconds

The most OP dk talent In wotlk was unholy's Sacrifice. An enormous heal with no cool down that killed your pet. But it could be ANY pet. You could make a macro that prioritized which pets died. If you had Army up, your ghoul, a gargoyle, and a Risen player (!), You were unkillable by anything, pvp, enraged boss, whatever. Sacrificing a player you ghoul-rezzed was always amusing. Add corpse explosion to the macro, and players would run from you. I taught Stormstrike this macro, and herds of unholy dk just mowed down horde until blizz added short cooldowns to both sacrifice and corpse bombing.

25:22 I miss my pre-3.0-lich king Pally because of the party utility of multiple seals and judgments. Regenerating HP or Mana by attacking the boss. I also miss the old totem system on my Shammy for the same reason. The utility which was brought to the party. I thoroughly enjoyed Enhancement shammy in late BC and all through lich king. The totems blocking spells or regenerating hp or mana and the instant cast heals when I saw someone was almost about to die. I love it when I can DPS and also be a real linchpin player helping the group. That's when I'm having the most fun.

I remember tanking in Gladiator stance was fun as hell - stacking mastery and crit as high as possible, then "tanking" in all PVP gear because of the extra mastery. In dungeons you could do insane damage - usually 2-3 times more than the DPS classes, so the lack of armor/defence didn't matter because everything would die so quickly. The mobility was awesome too. Made tanking really cool. Healers didn't like it too much though 🤣

One ability they removed from mages that made me sad and I have no idea why, was fire orb that came out during cataclysm. It was just like frozen orb, but shot out beams of fire at the enemy's. They also removed Slow, which also sucked because in my opinion, it was a much needed cc for mages. They also got rid of frostfire bolt, but honestly, none of us mages would use it in rotation because it was mediocre damage st best, was a relatively slow casting time, and didn't proc with anything. The only thing it was good for was if an enemy was immune to your school of mages of either fire or ice, frostfire bolt counted as both fire and ice, so you could at least still do damage and your entire repertoire of spells wasn't completely useless.

10:28.. that is 100% true.. MoP everyone was stupidly overpowered that if and when blizzard added any other stupidly overpowered ability, no one cared because everyone else had any number of overpowered abilities to counter it or to level the playing field.. it was great. In a way due to this, I still consider MoP one of the most class balanced expansions ever as no matter what class you played, you felt powerful and had lots of fun and also alts were fun AF as your alts felt almost, if not as powerful as your main as soon as they hit level cap.

@Rhodair 3 жыл бұрын

I think stance dancing is cool if it's druid going bear form after a tank dies, warrior going prot stance, paladin changing an aura, etc. and also that it shouldn't be part of your regular rotation. Aspect of the Fox was commonly macro'd into Steady Shot and Hawk macro'd into everything else. The only physical ranged DPS in the game having melee-like mobility felt both amazing and right. In the beginning of MoP, they stuck aspects on global cooldown to try and prevent this. After massive passback from hunters, Blizzard changed their approach and baked in the idea of hunter generators and in turn most their rotation could be on the move.
