d6rimwj | t1_d6rgynd | t3_4yxkbo | wow | TekLWar | > All kinds of weapons of lore are in the game not all of them
Warrior here checking in, yeah! Totally! I love my weapons with all their deep lore. What? Upset? I don't look upset! Look how happy I am at the DEEP lore of these weapons that weren't introduced only with the announcement of legion! I also love our super iconic class hall that matches our class fantasy to a T.
:) ..... :) .... :(
Edit - Please note I do NOT speak for all warriors. I do know that to some people this is an awesome class hall. Just like I know some rogues hate their class hall and I love it to death. To each is their own. Just my two cents here. | false | 1 | 28,798,219 |

>They were very much in love with one another. But, eventually Arthas would question whether the two of them were ready to be together. Arthas would abruptly end the relationship so Jaina could focus on her magical studies in Dalaran and Arthas could focus on his commitments to Lordaeron.
and
>Though Arthas abruptly ended their relationship when he decided he wasn't ready to marry yet, he was determined to remain friends with the sorceress.
I feel like Arthas and Tiffin might have had a thing during this time when Arthas separated from Jaina.
Also
>Though her (Tiffin) marriage was arranged at birth in order to give her family a place in the Stormwind House of Nobles *she did have a short-lived relationship with another man*.

d6lqilw | t1_d6lp8tw | t3_4y7yn4 | wow | domsays | Kara was thematically amazing, yes. It is home to some of my fondest memories.
But I think the reason so many people connect it to 'the most fun I've had raiding' has less to do with pacing and bosses and more to do with size of raid required. Kara came at a time when all raids were 25 man minimum.
Karazhan ushered in the newer, more modern era of raiding. It was more accessible, yet sprawling. Smaller groups were able to actually raid, and the new size was easier to manage.

#Spoilers (will try to tag for the most part, but tread carefully, since I'm pretty much outlining the first 20 minutes of the movie).
["Okay, so here's an orc dude and his wife. Going well so far. Okay, big scary dude kills these things and they're going somewhere? Alright. Wait, what's Ironforge? Who's this dude? Why are they giving him a letter? So now we're in Stormwind? What's Stormwind? And who is this commander dude? Okay so now there's this mage guy. Now where are we going? Why are we in this tavern? Why is this king guy in the tavern? So that guy in the big armor is commander dude's son? Now where are they going?"](/spoiler)
It just really quickly jumps from place to place, assaulting you with more and more characters. It was easy for me, as someone who knows a ton about the lore and the characters, to follow, but even I could tell that they were going *way* too fast. They just say people's and places' names and expect you to keep up.
The movie would be helped *a lot* if they just slowed it down a little. Turned the first 20 minutes or so into about 40 minutes, maybe 50. First scene? Alright. It was fine. Still kinda threw watchers into the deep end, but as long as they give the audience time to process, it should be easy enough to understand. Maybe add a few more lines about who [Gul'dan](/spoiler) is and what he's doing.
But then don't immediately jump to [Lothar doing who knows what in Ironforge](/spoiler). Instead of starting with [him already there](/spoiler), maybe start from [him arriving in the city](/spoiler). He meets a friend (I'm assuming the dude he was talking to is his friend) and they catch up. This is a perfect way to get the audience to know who this guy is before going to the actual plot. You know, things like "[Lothar](/spoiler)! It's been forever! What brings you all the way to [Ironforge](/spoiler)?" "[The king](/spoiler) told me that the [engineers of Ironforge have a new weapon that may be useful for the Stormwind Guard](/spoiler)." "Aha! Right you are." And then his friend [leads him through the city](/spoiler), giving us a bit of worldbuilding and allows us to really drink in the scenery. Now we know that this dude is [Lothar](/spoiler) and he [works for the king somehow](/spoiler).
Boom. Character introduced organically and easily. Audiences will understand where he comes from, and why he's there, as well as generally what he does. Then, just let the [Ironforge](/spoiler) proceed as is. It was fine, and it also introduced the fairly crucial worldbuilding feature of [guns](/spoiler) in Azeroth.
Next, give us a scene explaining why [the king of fucking Stormwind](/spoiler) is at [Goldshire](/spoiler). This would give us a chance to introduce [the king](/spoiler) as well as doing more worldbuilding by showing us more of [Goldshire](/spoiler).
*Then* we go to [Lothar](/spoiler) arriving in [Stormwind's garrison](/spoiler). You continue with the introduction of [Khadgar](/spoiler) which I think was *fine*, except that when you paired his introduction with the introduction of literally every other character in a span of about 10 minutes, it gets overwhelming. By introducing the other two characters and the other locations at length, the shock of [a real, spell-chucking mage](/spoiler) whose background is kind of iffy is much more easily processed.
Then, finally, [Lothar and Khadgar](/spoiler) make their way to [Goldshire](/spoiler). They meet [the king](/spoiler). Linger a while and explain [the Guardian](/spoiler). Hell, I have an idea, just keep the scene as is if you have to, but include this next part. Let's say [Callan](/spoiler) doesn't know what [the Guardian](/spoiler) or [Karazhan](/spoiler) are. After all, [supposedly Medivh hasn't really been involved for several years now. Callan is young, so the audience will understand him not knowing who the Guardian is, what he does, and what Karazhan is.](/spoiler) So [Lothar](/spoiler) pulls him aside before he leaves and tells [Callan](/spoiler) what he's going to go do. This gives [Lothar](/spoiler) a chance to explain [who the Guardian is and what Karazhan is](/spoiler) to both [Callan](/spoiler) *and* the audience. Plus, it gives us a little bit of time to [develop the father-son relationship between Lothar and Callan](/spoiler) so that later on, when [Callan dies, it's more impactful because the audience actually cares about him.](/spoiler)
---
#Spoilers off.
That's about all I got. Just slow down the first 15-20 minutes. Give us time to appreciate the scenery. Give the characters some much needed character development time.

d57jwyw | t3_4s99w2 | t3_4s99w2 | wow | Kracker5000 | So he guessed that:
- Demon hunters may become a hero class
- Illidan will return in some way
The whole "demon hunter as a class" thing has been a theory since like vanilla, and of course the whole "Illidan returns" thing has also been theorized ever since Blizzard killed him off.
Not to mention, he doesn't even go for the full-blown resurrection theory, he says Illidan would come back as a ghost... And also, that the idea of that seems farfetched and it would make more sense to use an already living DH.
I'd be impressed if someone predicted it would be Gul'Dan resurrecting him, or that his body was located in the ~~Tomb of Sargeras~~ Vault of the Wardens to begin with. | false | 1 | 29,093,531 |

The idea, of course, being that your character can just read the books on the shelves and learn anything about any profession. They're hardly Shattrath's only trainers though, there are trainers all over the city. | false | 1 | 29,095,277 |

d6w9c5b | t3_4zj7vz | t3_4zj7vz | wow | The_Zanester | Yeah, I didn't get to play during BC (at least, I never got to Outlands during BC) so I didn't get the meme about Fel Reavers.
I was playing a level 100 Prot Warrior fully geared in Invasion gear sitting at like 705 iLvL and figured I'd just tank the boss and hope someone healed me whenever I needed it. I'm a Prot Warrior, get fucked invasion bosses.
And then a Fel Reaver stomped on me and I died in one hit. I was ass blasted and thought it was a bug. I rezzed and flew back. Figured "no way the bug will happen twice!" and I got stomped on again like 4 seconds after taunting it.
I complained in /1 about the bug and got soundly laughed at. My noobness was showing but it was alright. I learned the terror of Fel Reavers. Now I just tag it and run away like a lil bitch. | false | 1 | 28,764,916 |

d4rqy3l | t1_d4rpx7p | t3_4qb51l | wow | Aunna | So here is in general, my tier list for challenge mode classes and specs. Pretty much opinion and based on what I've seen.
**God tier**
* Blood Dk
* Enhance Shaman (almost always want one in every group)
* Hunter (BM for trash, mm for bosses. Takes 2 gear sets, stay BM full time if you don't have two)
* WW Monk
* Brewmaster Monk (if have dk in group, doable without but a *lot* easier with one)
* Resto druid
* Combat Rogue (not a lot of utility and everything above is better but damage with mirror is really solid)
The thing all of those (cept blood dk) have in common is that they can use Mirror of the Blademaster trinket. Even resto druids. It's that strong.
**Decent**
* Holy Paladin (best hps, just less utility than druids because no bres or roar, and not as much dmg contribution)
* Destro Lock (demo might be good too, honestly haven't seen enough good locks to know 100%. they were in meta before 6.2 and you don't see them much since)
* Mage
* Ret paladin
* DPS warriors
* Feral druid (With mirror)
* DPS dks
**Doable but why**
* Boomkin
* Warrior tanks
* Ele sham (they still provide all the utility and the earthquake stun thing IS good but their dmg is a lot lower than enh)
* Sub rogues (Seriously just go combat. Sub for bosses if you want to build 2 sets.)
* Disc priest
**Garbage tier**
* Basically everything else
To give you an idea, for carries we run Blood DK, Enh shaman, R druid, and then either a ww, another enh, or a hunter. And sometimes we run without a healer altogether and we run double tank with a dk and monk instead but that's outside the scope of just getting them done. For double carries we still keep the dk and the shaman, and the third we use is either a brew/ww monk or an r druid who spends most of their time dpsing.

d5jbsxa | t1_d5j8nhb | t3_4toipd | wow | Stavrus | It's not impossible; it's just a very difficult process to get back to a working legacy server given the challenges they have at hand. The main problem is that people look at the private legacy servers who've taken a lot of shortcuts to get up and running and saying that it should be easy for Blizzard to do the same. Problem is, there's a difference between running a private server with no guarantees to random people and providing a legitimate service to paying customers that does not tarnish the reputation the company spent the last 25 years building up.
A couple of the main challenges Blizzard faces:
* They themselves [have stated](http://www.pcgamer.com/nostalrius-pm-reports-back-on-blizzard-meeting/) that not all of the information required for actually building the game is available as a snapshot in time. My best guess is, rather than build out the proper tooling for it -- as it would have taken more time -- they had some centralized server during development running that allowed their designers to create unique IDs for the items, creatures, and spells they were adding to the game. Without it they would have been stepping on each other's toes. And as they made changes to the game, adjusting things like item stats, spell damage numbers, etc, these changes were made in place, overriding the previous values. Over time, which numbers corresponded to which patches has been lost, which they'll have to recover or recreate so they can provide an authentic experience. Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning had its itemization done mostly through Excel (look up EA louse) so it's not entirely surprising workarounds for insufficient tooling happen (though in Warhammer's defense Excel files are pretty easy to store in source control).
* Battle.net integration for billing. They'd need to do quite a bit of work to get the legacy code to understand Battle.net accounts and how authentication works with them. Then they'd need to integrate account management, character services, parental controls, and subscription management.
* Customer support. A very significant amount of time would have to be spent figuring out the policies their staff would have to follow on these servers - policies that have changed over the years as the game has evolved. Problem is, it's been almost 10 years since TBC hit and vanilla ceased to exist. Any customer support staff they might still have from back then have probably transitioned into other roles and couldn't easily remember how things were done. They might be lucky and still have the training materials from back then, but then you have the problem of the tools themselves being quite old and not as practical as today's, making customer support issues much more troublesome to solve.
* Getting a server running. You can't just pull old code from a server and expect it to run right off the bat on your modern hardware. You end up hunting for dependencies and praying that installing them won't cause further problems, among other issues. Hopefully they also don't need to hunt for licenses of any proprietary tools they may have used in the build process. And don't forget the other services that need to be running along with the server, such as the SQL database. Licenses and compatible working versions would need to be found.
* Server monitoring. The tools they've used to do this have probably changed over the years and they'd need to hook up their new tools to the servers so they can monitor them properly.
* Server stability. The legacy servers, especially in vanilla, weren't exactly renowned for staying up long or working properly (see Captain Placeholder or AQ gate opening). A lot of bugs were fixed along the way that they'll probably want to backport in order to provide a solid gaming experience or else the entire effort would have gone to waste as people would deem the experience bad and too buggy. The initial release is when the issues (and the subsequent player backlash) would appear the most, and then would slowly stabilize along with the server population. You only need to look to a game as recent as Pokemon Go to be reminded of how unstable servers can affect a gaming experience. | false | 1 | 29,046,307 |
