I don't know if this has always been a thing on every server, but with BBs focus on exploration I've discovered a harlot in Theramore.

Meet Amie Pierce, a lovely young lass that works at the inn on Theramore Island.

And here is her son Dahne, he runs around playing in the room with his dad.

Speaking of Dear old dad, lets take a look at him, Mikal:

Gee, Mikal...why do you look so glum?

Oh, is it your newest child, your daughter, Sara?

I'm already exploring every nook and cranny of the open world so I may as well investigate....

The closest culprit i can find is this dapper young man, pimp hat and all:

Though Theramore is a port town and there's a new ship docking every night, so we may never know...

Hang in there, Mikal

Debating prestiging on my druid, on one hand it finally feels like a complete class at 60 with all the feral enchants and skill unlocks, but the urge to unlock heirloom gear and 4.5x exp rates and go back and explore more shit is calling.

So I was 3 days 18 hours /played leveling to 60, mostly questing but i did do a whole lot of exploring as well.

I prestiged which gives an exp bonus, allows using heirlooms which gives bonus exp, and popped an aura of exp.

I have no idea the final multiplier on exp earned but I'm lvl 52 after 9 hours played and I'm spending just as much time exploring this time as last time. I'm intentionally only leveling in zones I skipped on the first run to 60, but its very hard cus I'm leveling so fast.

I hit lvl 17 before even getting out of the lvl 3 newbie area of teldrassil, skipped the rest of that went to ratchet and did a few quests there, went to stone talon like 3 quests, desolace maybe 5 quests, then badlands and I'm 52. Gonna head to swamp of sorrows then blasted lands but I'm guessing I'll be 60 long before blasted lands. Still haven't done any lvl 60 zones like silithus, winterspring, eastern or western plaguelands, etc

Heroic/Mythic/Ascended raids have new mechanics and make vanilla raiding fresh.

Are there even any end game guilds in BB doing whatever?

Theres a few raid guilds I guess, they make announcements on discord, guild 404 has got server first on everything.

Because its scaled 10-25 man raids lots of times you just see pug's doing raids looking for ppl in chat. I haven't done any raiding yet myself

They also support shaman tank. I had some coins from when I played ascension last year. BB is pretty cool.

Lvl 15 shaman. I like the changes to Sham they've done. Not much custom quests or anything but some aspects keep it fresh.

I think this is lacking a lot of Classic+ IMO though. It's more like a Classic themed ARPG leaning version of WOW. You can buy cash shop convenience items out the wazoo and get to 60 REALLY fast. Skipping the leveling experience entirely.

On the plus side there is a good amount to do at 60 in terms of end game difficulty. Prestige runs, and other stuff. I will definitely play their actual classless offering eventually. That being said, making crafting important doesn't actually make it important unless its usefulness persists into the end game. I guess it should with reforging and everything but IDK. Being able to use mail as a Shaman at level 1 is kind of nice.

Yeah there is too much easy epics in Ascension to make crafting worthwhile.

The only useful professions are alchemy and enchanting.

i'm playing this exclusively, got my feral druid i've prestiged and back at 60 and leveling a shaman tank right now.

i've seen a few new quests that they put in but it's not enough to be noticable. This is mostly an explore all the new things, figure out the puzzles for these enchants. Basically this is a SOD like experience more so than a classic+ experience.

they just changed the locations on tons of stuff in the last couple of weeks and there was hardly any population playing for a long time so I got to be the discoverer of many, many things.
