Classic WoW Patch Progression: What does it mean?

Hi guys,
Hope you enjoy the video, if you have any questions please leave them in the comment section and I'd be happy to get back to you soon.
Happy Holidays!

For my sources on patch notes:

The paladin actually one-shotted Kazzak, but his game froze since he instantly had to perform several hundred or thousand hits, the game itself can only deliver a fixed number of information in time, so the game registered the total damage in chunks, so those 3-4 seconds of Kazzak loosing hp in chunks, he was actually recieving the delayed damage of all the reckoning stacks from a single auto-attack.

You mentioned the "Let Vanilla just be Vanilla" guys, I think this video has some good info for the "No Changes" guys also, it shows how much Vanilla changed over the time it was out. I've always assumed they just meant no changes outside of the ones that happened in Vanilla, but even if that is what they meant I don't know which patch they want to start at, maybe some of them don't know either and hopefully this video helps them decide. I personally would like starting around 1.4 but with 1.12 class balance, that way there would be a pvp bloodbath in the open world for ranks but the more casual type players probably wouldn't make it to the death zones before BGs came out and relieved some of the destruction. Also there wouldn't be players hitting rank 14 before BWL is even out which was a problem on Private servers that had time gated content releases. Obviously they'd have to increase the difficulty of high level dungeons and raids to make up for the increased power from 1.12 talents as you mentioned in one of your previous videos, but I think this would be a good place for the hardcore players and the more casual types to start.

as long as they communicate what they are doing backend wise i think the community will understand. none of this changing balance and hybrid classes aids u want

If it was tbc patch progression would be great

Hey Tommy. A lot of my friends are interested in playing oldschool wow, but they wont because many of their favorite specs are useless in pve.
So is a Tbc style spec balance such a bad thing?

I only got like 5 minutes in because you were editorializing and not presenting the information in a fair manner.

My contention is... why not both? Have some servers that are true to classic and other servers with QoL improvements and let the consumer decide for themselves how they want to play.

I am one of these hardcore classic guys but I understand when some people go bowling they like to play with bumpers on... so why not cater to both with separate servers?

I'm more concerned about WoW Tokens and cosmetics from the WOW shop being available on the classic servers. I recently played on the Everquest official classic server called Phinigel. It was not true to classic EQ has bugs and imbalances were fixed and it was perfectly playable... my biggest gripe however was they allowed stuff from the shop to be used on the classic servers so you'd run into these people with this awesome gear and you go 'I don't remember that...' and then you inspect them and they got all this shit from the estore... it really breaks immersion and I hope it is not present.

These arguments on what they should do with classic really annoy the piss out of me because when you really get down to it it's just two individuals trying to impose their morals onto one another and there are silly debates as a result... why not just end the argument and offer two types of servers... those for the hardcore nuts who like to swim with weights on their ankles and ones for the snowflakes who enjoy to swim with water wings.

Just like how PUBG offers TPP servers and FPP servers... everyone is happy. Blizzard is poised to have their cake and eat it too here... I'm interested as to what they choose. At the end of the day though I probably won't care what they do... as long as I get to play with my friends again that is all that matters to me.
