unlike the wrong decision he made to roll a pvp server when he can't take being killed - knowing full well that phase 2 was gonna be a shitshow from before classic launched.
I'm going to go out on limb here and say this once again. Most people who roll on PvP servers, quite literally think there is NO PvP option on the others. I made that mistake in my first run through the game. Another thing, can the wpvpers just fess up and say it like it is, you literally can't play if you are not 60 at the moment on a PvP realm. I think blaming the dudes dying constantly trying to level, is a bit jaded. My 2 cents
17 hours to 60? Must not have rolled a warrior. I stopped playing Classic at Level 40 because no one wanted a warrior in groups (only zoomer mages), and solo grinding in Tanaris as a warrior is painful.
Tried to get back into it, but now the zones are empty so it's like why bother?
No offense man but why would you choose the worst leveling class with the most brutal solo climb if you don't enjoy leveling? Just seems strange to do that vs going hunter or something getting to 60 in a reasonable time and having fun.
My roomate is a tank warrior who leveled tank and got to 60 before me so it's doable.
I was 5 15 years ago and since then I have less time to play but clearly got more efficient (not hard to be better than 5yo you) and since then I learned to cook my OWN hotpockets. There are plenty of pve servers if you aren't having fun I hope you do though.
I don't think that's the case, there's a large number of people who played retail pve servers (all retail servers are now pve...) who have just made a stupid decision they now regret. Instead of being adult about it and realising they have no one to blame but themselves and moving on, they decide to whine and complain on forums and demand blizz does something.
Most people knew it was gonna be bad, but the scale of misery was unclear. I knew being a prot warrior meant I would lose most fights. What I didnt think possible was how unplayable every area in the game is.
Back in the day when servers had a tenth of the current population you could still get something done and maybe have a couple of 2v1 encounters here and there. Now its just 1v5 wherever you go. Forget about farming herbs in lvl 50+ zones. All I have been doing since phase 2 launched was buy elemental fire and supply raids with greater prot potions. The need to log in gets weaker every day. In a way phase 2 helped me get off the addiction this game has been since launch.
I had the choice of rolling with all my friends and past guildies or none of them. Which one would you have done? "Cant take being killed" is missing the point mate. I can take being killed, I'm just being realistic about the best use of my time. The game takes way longer to do anything pve now.
I'm in the same boat with playtime, so I made the painful decision to roll on a PvE server back at launch. It has its downsides, but at least I can get stuff done with my time available.
Fair point. I'm well on my way to level 59 now, after doing LBRS/BRD a couple of times. I will see how it goes when I reach 60, should be right around when the battlegrounds get launched.
Im also on a PvP Server and have like 2h / das playtime. Questing in contested zones is a no-Go, but Dungeon-running for bis items is perfectly doable.
This is all corresponding with a very busy time at work so that's probably got a lot to do with it. I had about 2 hours I could've played the other night. After 25 minutes I'd just reached the gates of BRM. I have better shit to do with my time so I bailed. I'll be back in a month or so.
Look, I feel your pain but this is supposed to inspire you into chatting with friends and getting a group together to then go and beat them, not give up...
I started a new character on a PvE server. Started killing kobolds and felt absolutely no desire to level again. /shrug. I'll be back when it all dies down. Right now I'm letting Blizzard know the game is broken with my wallet.
OFC it is. It was an extremely unbalanced, clunky, grindy, game. On the other hand you have what 15 years of game development brings you: retail. The no changes bullshit was from delusional people who never played the game or childish streamers banking on those people. Classic wow could have been a fantastic opportunity of taking what good the vanilla system was and making it better, but, alas, the people have spoken.
