I actually would've loved to see you actually try to make a working "auto attacks only" build, but with stuff like windfury, sceals, anything you want, as long as it's buff on your auto attacks and not an ability you have to press to do dmg (+ with random enchants!

This video was some kind of fresh air. Not focusing on builds and dungeons or raids but just doing challange and world quests. Kinda fun to watch. I would like to see you try and do all 3 challanges at once. A long series. Nightmare + Ironman/Survivalist + Resolute.

Auto attacks only. Sounds like my first ascension build when I started playing in season three 'cause of Wild Card system lol.

I awesome that you seemed to just enjoy going along for the ride. We get quotes like “I love it when you actually get to see your character parry, you know?” - Atis

That blow by blow commentary was beautiful. xD - Redflamez

dark iron dwarves really are scary. i lost my ironman to them and i wasnt even nightmare, killed one and 3 others respawned behind me hahaha

Since you are using warrior's talent Sword Spec, then go for Deep Wounds too, both have proc effects, plus your comments about the stomach cuts and so on are actually pretty dope and would fit perfect with the Deep Wounds talent and this can add up a bit more flavor to the character. Love the idea of the challenge, but for sure go for the Deep Wounds. :)

McDoubles: Bane of Domes and Shoulder Blades and just in case, Grendel on Thrall XD

better than a Netflix show actually on the edge of my seat I went for a nightmare/ironman for my first character on Project Ascension I can really relate T.T

Really impressed with Auto attacks only man. Kudoos to you bro! - Rogarbrogar

Awesome adventure! Glad you were able to push through and overcome your set challenges. Would be cool to see them implement this as another challenge mode for leveling! - Fearce

I got a challenge for you, nightmare ironman, you have to roleplay as a rogue class meaning you can't use any ability or gear a rogue wouldn't have access to. Would be fun to see a classed build without heals and with missing abilities. Gotta really on luck to get the good rogue spells.

ddi this back in the day on accident with a hunter build went through 1-60 with just auto shot and serpent sting and it was PAIN, cant imagine nightmare and melee monkaS

dam you a risky boy glad you got the heirlooms :D

This was solid content, I was locked in the entire time! More of interesting challenges.

mcdubs learned somewhere a new phrase smacked him in the dome and it shows. lul.

I swore I would never play draft mode on Thrall but 300 McDouble videos video and you finally broke me. Tried Thrall and I'm loving it. You really are the BEST advertising for Ascension. IGN Otep

Arbitrary limitations is the most fun way to play games :) Auto attack away! I recently made a tank char focusing on just reflect damage. So inefficient, but kinda fun.

Would love to see more challenge videos, this one was awesome- Sray

mark of the wild >>>> battle shout. mark may start off just armor, but will add stats/resists as you get higher.

Pumpernickel sounds like the perfect character name

I often use your videos to check if you've done a build I'm theorycrafting before, and this one in particular has some mental juices flowing. If you'd picked up a combo point generator to allow for potentially grabbing Slice and Dice, you could use the Setup talent to generate points, then get a good chunk of attack speed for close to a minute with the blue slice and dice enchant and the two-point talent. Even more if you also managed to grab something like Windfury Totem. I definitely think going 2h was the right choice here though, dual-wield doesn't offer enough real benefit since you can't use damage procs (and would've locked you out of the warrior strength-to-parry talent anyhow). -Hoovesmcgee

If only there was an unarmed enchant that was cool for challenges like these... I also appreciated the self narration of combat :< embrace the inner roleplayer Mc D

I don't even have the stamina to do a regular nightmare run! Well done! -Xaquillen

i've been sitting here tearing my hair out over the lack of battle shouts being used...

Hell yeah, another mcdoublé win in my book. Love the vids where you do some stupid shit and make it work lol

no joke ive been doing this challenge for awhile now! Its so cool to see you do it!

Fuck it. Love your content. You honestly have a great voice for it. It's both soothing and just genuine excitement from time to time. Favorite KZfaqr for a while now and I'm always so happy when a new vid drops. Would love to see a crossover with you and other content creators. I really like skwidlegs for ascension and Marcelian online for dragonflight.

I did already Auto attack run on Ironman and it was fun. Never tried on Nightmare befor hehe. Stil lit´s cool challenge, take time :)

Its unfortunate, but atm aside from the mount I cant find it really worth it to do any of the challenge modes. The gear the boxes offer really isnt worth it because it doesnt seem any better then the prestige boxes. -Landengen

What might be fun to try is a weapon swapping build or a dagger mainhand build but not a dagger offhand(or sword/mace)

I haven't even watched the video yet and I love this, yes

Icy veins sounds great to pop for healing.

I remember way back when you did a resolute unbound life drain tank was a really cool video I’d like to see more stuff like this Veral-Thrall

I did a full auto-attack speed build once with a troll and wind rager. It was pretty damn fun!

Next version of the challenge: no talents and grey items only xD, Thrall: Twiet | Brolein

I know you have done retail content before but have you heard of the hardcore challenge in classic? That could be some great content if it sounds fun for you

If you are enjoying the world, maybe doing another turtle wow series? Can use video titles like "Trying Classic+ New Hyjal Dungeon???" And get those nice clicks since it seems like your necromancer video had a similar appeal. Regardless, I'll be watching. Love the vids mcdubs, busy with work so I don't play anymore but your vids are always great.

I want to see another picking all left skills video! - Rontheman

Mate you’ve got a lot more patience than me getting a character like that to 60! Gromnar

Love self made challenges. I need to live my nightmare. What ended up being your time? -Krumbull

Seemed silly that you could use reckoning but not Windfury, but fun to watch all the same!

I always had this fantasy of a warcraft anime of "you" as the player is the main character. Personally, I thought the movie a bit before WoD was decent enough but a show/anime would be a better way to showcase the story of WoW.

Going after the Kurzen's never ends well when doing challenges lol.

i think bleed is totally viable and thematic for a auto attack only build. Sharp things cut.. cuts... dare I say it? ...bleed. anyway, still interesting to watch! Not a challenge most would accept. =)

i would like to point out that you said you weren't taking windfury, which is an auto attack proc effect, but took sword mastery, which is an auto attack proc effect.

Try an Ironmanchallenge and you can only use your Fist OR Fistweapon without heirloom items. But you can use Abilitys that make dmg but you need to look if they can be use unarmed or with fistweapon

If you want a game focused on the world and really based around the story. Try FFXI it's got a story that I haven't found any game to beat it and a soundtrack like no other

the minecraft music xDD

Have you ever done or can you do a Guardians of the Grove legendary enchant build? Healing with treants.

Feels like a Vanilla ret paladin

Homie got the raid shadow legends promo. He made it bois

I loved this challenge video! Don't be afraid to do stuff like this again in the future :)

WE WANT A WOW CLASSIC HARDCORE RUN. LETS SEE HOW FAR YOU GET!

It always amazes me how creative some of your builds can get, Keep them coming XD - Ergand

I would be interested in an ironman nightmare build suggestion video

Awesome adventure! Glad you were able to push through and overcome your set challenges. Would be cool to see them implement this as another challenge mode for leveling! -dime def didnt copy and paste this message

Would be cool to see more challanges - Stelthy

29:32 This is just a WoW thing

What no triple threat? Hahaha just kidding. Good to see a nightmare playthrough! Can't wait to see what you come up with once the new changes hit.

Would enjoy you trying out more PVP, possibly even open world cache fights! Shed some light on it 😉

I always thought about builds where you just max simple things out like this auto attack one, I've thought about also thorn only damage. Curthalyon would love to play with you some time in game.

We need a wand build! -Dripdaddy

na you gotta do the triple threat vids ironman nightmare resolute cause just auto attacking nightmare would get super boring haha

Mcdubs on the Nightmare content! looking forward to future builds man Already bout to tinker with Hoarfrost and Absolute Zero on a Tank build at some point on an INT hero, but been enjoying Serpent Form for the time being. Appreciate ya dude! 💖🌟✨💖 -Deathglance

I think heirlooms are fair. Auto attack only is hard enough 😂

the small pouchs were the real mvp of this journey - ign Kushum

Love this content! More like this please :D -Grum

Cool idea for a challenge. I wonder if a build with purely passive damage like thorns or ret aura could work. - Valyssia

Mcdoubles im in need of you opinion. Im here because im upset over a specific change to a LRE, Mana Fiend more specifically. If you haven't seen it already they nefed the tank version of the build, but at the same time the dps version got caught in the crossfire. What do you think about nerfing the tank version and kill the dps version at the same time for no reason.

basically ret pally vanilla who is oom? lol

5:45 are you going to care latter that wing clip does damage even though it's basically nothing..... Edit: Wait, that's the gnome racial, nm 😅

Yeah I like the challenge videos, keep ‘em comin

Keep up the good content bro - Chubbs

Rukharr reporting for duty sir

SHEEEEEEEESH McDeez with the big ads!

Deus did not die. Just went under Whitemane name

I was expecting auto attack modifiers like wind fury or seals. If it can be procced off an auto it should count

hey man i watch almost all your vids as they come out as of like 2 years ago, normally i work 12 hours night 7 days a week but i have 4 days off if you want to play for a random 2 player challenge you might think of id be down much love

Good job Mr Hamburger

Quick question Mcdoubles... Do you hate yourself?-Lagiel

reading comprehension must be hard. Seal of command: "All main hand auto attacks.... deal additional holy damage". It is the auto attacks that deal damage. Windfury yeah, it's off the table it doesn't mention anything about AAs.

HOLLA Exdanza -Thrall

HEIRLOOMS?!

Love your Vid's man -Cornvex

Nightmare with only punches and heals/buffs/defensives

Great video! Love to see something "new"! Great job mate!

This challenge looks interesting, I might go for it!

I wanna say "Fun video man!" But this was just meh :P Cool thought though. I really hope that the next Chapter opens up as much as it looks like it will! GG // Majj

I see you are doing nightmare mode which seems interesting. if you want to have the hardest challenge atm I would "challenge" you to the triple challenge (Ironman, Nightmare, Resolute) to get the obsidian worldbreaker. would recommend you to make a whole lets play-ish series since I am 10 hrs in and am lvl 25 XD -Gvt or Bearvg

What about use the Epic Enchant - Drunken Brawler

I would have taken shadowform, then taken improved shadow form

Not trying to be rude, and I haven’t watched the full video. But to the point where im at, you would never choose something that could heal you. You would only choose things that you could use like every couple of minutes and situational

Love Kek - Artde XD

Auto attack is definitely a challenging feat! Well done, for what it's worth! IGN: Zumio

Ha ha good vid love the commentary of the run-clet ign

Why not windfury? If reckoning is ok WF should be too :). Anyway, cool challenge!

If you could add one thing instantly to Project:Ascension, what would that be? Love the content! - Cowbrains

Nightare gang - Keyboard on Thrall (or Numpad)
