World of Warcraft: Classic

I just remember most geared locks destroying my Naxx-geared holy paladin in no time flat. Affliction and Destro for sure. I don't remember soul link locks doing insane damage but they were really hard to kill. Affliction would just melt me and Destro would blow me up. I dreaded having either of them focusing me in pvp. I'm trying to remember but I'm pretty sure warlocks were the hardest counter to paladins. Rogues were obviously annoying but a good warlock with a felhunter was pretty brutal.

I had a naxx geared rogue and I definitely remember warlocks being a force by late game too, I do know they sucked for years before naxx too but not sure if they just needed a ton of scaling or if the revamps helped them a ton at some point. I am torn on this server between lock and paladin, may depend on if my group goes horse or alliance. It was also a class that struggled with agro so I suspect they will be better here unless they need the warrior 1.11 changes because agro is going to be very unclassic from what we remember.

I was destro/demon because I was cheap and hated respeccing for raids - and being on a pvp server it was a nice balance for doing your normal crap and surviving in the wild - thus the pet shit hurt me more than a destro/afflic lock as that was the pvp spec because you had insta casts to fall back on when I just had normal affliction. I still managed whatever the 3rd or 4th higher rank was, I thought it was knight lt. but maybe it was lt. comm... I was close to getting the horse...

Didn't they put succubus charm and fear on the same diminishing return?

If we want to talk about PVP nerf, blood DK in beta was just pure unstoppable maddness...but thats wrath, this is classic! yeehaw

I will still play a lock because they were and are a fun class to still play... the others just dont appeal to me, just like when I started. Also I never played a pure caster in all my EQ..so it was different.

Having played both Human and Orc Warlock in the earlier versions (Up to around AQ release) I can only laugh at people pretending warlock was the same no matter what faction. Will of the Forsaken was completely absurd, and when Death Coil was still just mediocre instant damage and nothing else, undead rogues getting the drop on you was incredibly hard to deal with. As an Orc Warlock, one single stun resist meant the Alliance Rogue was gonna run back to his corpse.

Review the classic cinematic again. See what infernals are there. Then compare them to what they were like in the game. They were useless and weak. Even the Soul Link talent was the antithesis of the idea of having strong pets. They just turned them into hp-pools.

I kind of feel like a dumbass for not playing on a private server, maybe I'll fire something up to get the hang of leveling when it's closer to launch. I'm gonna go hard on launch and prob die like a korean practicing starcraft at a lan center

it's called a PC Bang you uncultured swine

is there powers in the rice fields

2000$ level 30 horde Duel Tournament going on right now lmao, it's about to start in a minute.

I'm interested to see if anyone actually kills any locks tbh

It'll be endlessly delayed because faggotry and cuckery.

The Tourny is relocating to the barrens. Should be starting soon. Soda just passed 60k viewers, heh.

I don't know why they're relocating, all the alliance are just also going to show up there lmao.

perplexity casting this, and that dude is a god so it should be a good one.

Take this with a grain of salt , but I’ve heard from 2 different people that have some insight into Blizz, say that they’ll be doing another wave of beta invites tomorrow.

You’ll, again, have to make sure you have an active sub to WoW even if you’re considered to be on the friends & family list you won’t get an invite unless you’re actively subscribed. No guarantees you’ll get an invite still, etc. But you might have a chance and it’s up to you if you want to try for a beta invite, just sucks you have to be subscribed to be considered for one.
