Nah i assumed this too, the only addons i ever use is a threat meter and dbm. They broke a bunch of shit somehow with their brewfest patch. I think? it's probably fixed by now?

The patch broke a bunch of stuff that has been working fine for decades, so that's likely. I think they have a serious issue of spaghetti code going on, and nobody experienced enough to unravel it well.

WoW's code has to be a f'n mess by now. So many hands that have less and less experience over the years. Especially with how Class/TBC have been forced into existence.

Ye ask and ye shall receive. No world buffs in raids, higher raid boss exp, no debuff limit and faster leveling.

Good changes to be honest and you can see Holly's influence from EQ TLP's including the 1 year timeline. Not that I am going to play mind you but if you were interested this looks like a better ruleset the the first time around.

Honor System and BG's from the start
Summoning Stones
Increased Nodes
No Debuff Limit
Increased Raid Boss HP
Unnerfed Raid Bosses (mechanics)
No Raid world buffs
Faster Leveling
12 Month Timeline

Good concept, horrible execution.

What are the point of world buffs now? E.g. You pop Ony so all the people still leveling can use the buff?

Should have scaled up raid boss difficulty and made world buffs undispellable, and ability to pop Ony off cool down

Honestly with them becoming such a cancer within the community I wont miss them. I don't blame them from taking this direction at all, plus it will allow them to tune the raids harder without having to bake in the assumption of them being active.

I wonder when they announce the WoW Classic Season of Mastery Collectors Edition Battle Chest that for 49.95 that comes with a mount, toy, larger bag and exp potions.

Not a bad set of changes. Just for me it's a bit too close from having done it already, though would have loved to have it like this from the start. Maybe in a few years.

With them calling it "Season of Mastery", it would be cool if they added in some account wide title or something. Something DBG should have done a long time ago.

Would have been nice if they had these options and different rulesets to start out, after playing about 2 years of classic though I can't see playing again.

I assume the removal of world buffs and the debuff limit will create more class stacking though. Will be interesting to see how it turns out from the sidelines this time.

If they can do faction-based queues or some other kind of faction-balancing mechanism, I am totally in.

Werent you bitching about the fury warrior meta and loot being funneled to them when wow classic first launched?

I cant wait to see your reaction with bosses having higher hp pools which is going to further push the fury warrior meta and less loot over time which will require guilds to ensure those fury wars get their bis items before anyone else

Fury warriors are not nearly as good without world buffs.

Not quite sure how debuff limit will affect class balance.

This is how world buffs work for every class. Did you never wipe on a raid and continue raiding with no world buffs? Spoiler: Fury warriors still topped the charts

Hard to say how being able to stick every single dot and debuff on a boss while effect rankings. Aren't there a ton of things that just never, ever see use in that era? Could be at least a little interesting.
