[@Stretch7586]

Very informative! I hope to see more guides like this one! I really appreciate how you provide where all the quests are, and the loot from each boss. Some of these dungeons are a maze, so some directional queues might be nice too! Thanks!

[@delirithdure9065]

Thraex! i absolutely love the dungeon guides. there isn’t enough content that explains them as throughly as you. Head into raid content as there is a lot you could explain given different roles. Thanks for the giveaway!

[@throatwobblermangrove8510]

This was actually one of the best step-by-step walk-throughs I've ever seen. You covered pretty much anything I could have asked for without wasting time on poor jokes or useless unrelated footage. This is how a dungeon guide should be made, and I look forward to seeing more from you. Thanks.

[@tonyc9738]

dude!! your guides are the best around. and your voice is one that is very subtle and easy to listen too. DO A MC AND EVERYOTHER RAID GUIDE!

[@xello23]

Great work, keep it up! Watching this makes waiting for classic a bit easier.

[@jakubszabowinski9255]

Great guide, for me you are doing everthing just brilliant - especially fact that you are explaining all classes/roles what to do. I cannot wait for all raids explanations ! Please keep it up! Much love from Poland

[@irgendwietee8640]

I just recently stumbled upon your channel and have binged all of your guides! Thanks for the great content (especially the quest-section is really helpful). It would be great if you could cover all the different attunement quests (because I am already scared of never knowing where to start for Onyxia).

[@nordy259]

TY for this series. short, to the point, and very well made.

[@WonderGoon]

Excellent guide. Dungeon guides are always good, as are guides on class quests, and efficient routes for leveling. Other than that, maybe profession guides? I'm not sure what to suggest, honestly. Great video. Keep up the good work.

[@MASwaim]

Great vid. I like your direct style and I’m interested in more dungeon guides. Keep up the good work and have fun out there.

[@mutatedllama]

This is great. Love how you bring lore into it.

[@konstantin723666]

Great videos, keep up the good work! I'd like to see more videos like these, as well as videos, about the later-stages-of-the-game class quests. How to do them, what to choose, etc.

[@Reign123]

I love the work you've done! Im looking forward to dungeon leveling guides as they are very rare!

[@corokolos6813]

Watching your videos in preparation to re-visiting the dungeons. Thank you for your work! I think it would be cool to see a detailed Scarab Lord questchain video.

[@AoKPVP]

Great video! As someone who hasn't played endgame vanilla this was perfect. I liked the quest overviews and the short to the point fight descriptions. Maybe you could include more visual map queues in the future? Its hard to keep track of where you are as someone who hasn't run the dungeon before.

[@kevinbaker4836]

Enjoying the videos, I'd like to see more like this one. Overall just details about quests and so forth with cords and what not to accompany the vids. Keep up the great work.

[@avargs3505]

Yeah! Thank you so much for making this! Honesty.. I love these higher level dungeon guides and having done lbrs over 10 times.. There were fight mechanics I learned in this video.. The spider stun being unidirectional.. And the way to not get hexed by the Troll... We killed her with me tanking as a paladin.. Our Healer went afk for over 20 min and we decided to go without them... With improved lay on hands and a stoneshield potion.. We were able to get the boss down (with me tanking).. It was such an exhilarating fight and one for the books!

[@user-sd6lb3tm9k]

Hey, that was so informative, we need more guides likes this especially if u could do some 40 man raid stuff like all the strat of MC's bosses in a condensed video to have a basic understanding of the boss mechanics for people playing classic for the first time, other than that your video format is amazing i also love the music in background while you explain things. Keep up the good work !

[@WanderLusting]

Excellent video,, looking forward to more dungeon guides.. keep up the great work.

[@Lurker711]

I was mostly watching for nostalgia, but was blown away by the depths of this guide. Great job! Entering the give away, I would really enjoy seeing a guide about white items and their uses. For example the turtle meat you can get in Hillsbrad Foothills can also be used to finish a quest in Thousand Needles. There are a lot of white items one can loot while leveling, that can be used for quests later on, quests on twinks, sold in the auction house or be used for professions, but it is really annoying to research which items to keep or not. Maybe zone-specific loot guides?

[@Schneetutweh]

Awesome video! You're getting me more hyped with every video! Only 7 more days!!

[@Sticklesticks]

Even now I still use your videos of classic dungeons because I wanna be prepared to tank a dungeon for my party. It doesn’t seem like you have any TBC dungeons but maybe you’ll come back for it. Love your work!

[@stephaniecardenas3126]

I've been watching all your guides to get ready for launch on August 27th since it'll be my first time playing wow (other than the play test) thanks for all the help!

[@Thraex]

I hope you enjoy it man! Make sure you read the quests and if you need someone to play with, I'm always down to do dungeons. Planning on going Faerlina Horde

[@xtwcxnoodles]

Pre-raid BiS guides for all classes please! All your content is so descriptive and in depth!

[@uphale]

Thanks for having the giveaway, and thank you for the useful guides!

[@glennwells246]

Thanks for another well-produced and easy to follow guide. Your dungeon explainers are excellent! One type of video I could see being helpful would be special quest chains like raid atunements & Onyxia chain. I think you would be particularly good at explaining those, and I know they can be confusing to people - when to start/focus on them while leveling, etc...

[@Thraex]

Sure, I might end up doing one for each attunement!

[@robinpodzemny9821]

Hey Thraex! I would love to see some kind of tips or tricks you recommend for farming since most people just repeat the well known spots :) Keep it up man. Only 6 days!

[@cstrm]

I'd like to see same videos as these. Guides for dungeons and raids with tactics and quests for each faction!

[@justinwald]

Thanks for another great video. Your dungeon guides are the best on youtube. Have you considered doing a series on resource harvesting?

[@tinbah]

I love your content! I would like to see a guide on dungeon/raid shortcuts.

[@herlitzproductions4536]

Great video as always. Would acually like to see more in-depth lore to the quests that you are showcasing for each dungeon. Lets say for example - Finkle Einhorn in UBRS. It doesnt necessarily have to be a 10 minute explanation for each NPC/Quest, but a little background would add some flavor to the video in my opinion! :)

[@amazingphilipp]

I really enjoy ur dungeon guides, keep up the good work!

[@yakumo6110]

I love how informative your videos are, as someone who started in tbc, it's very helpful!

[@alex94115]

Awesome video! Cant wait to get in there and get lootz! Please make additional guide like this for Dire Maul and BRD.

[@Laf-Adventures]

I’m in the contest! I think your dungeon videos are great so just keep doing those for now. Maybe do some reputation guides or difficult quest guides. Profession recipe guides even.

[@trulydumb506]

I wanna see content of you implementing your own guides and doing the dungeons. :)

[@petarslavinic6153]

Exquisite video sir. I would delight one about Upper Blackrock Spire.

[@Hugebull]

Thanks you so much for making this. I'm going to be a Protection Paladin in Classic, and knowing where to run is sort of a... requirement. So if you're ever on Pyrewood Village EU, make some noise.

[@KingAzion1232]

So descriptive! Can’t wait to run this!

[@danielnellis8812]

Awesome video! Popped up in my suggested videos and did not disappoint. From doing a quick scan of your videos looks like you put out a lot of dungeon guides which is awesome to see. You could try going over any notable drops from each boss. I found myself looking at the loot on the screen and figuring out if anything was going to be good for me rather than listening to you describe each boss. Also, as others have said once you finish up dungeons you could move onto raids, or quest chain guides!

This video will be a review process for me when I get around to it during my WoW progress. I would be open to your take on certain areas built within Blackrock Depths. New to the game and will be excited to see I take in the classic dynamic with my prior experience to other MMOs. Have been studying the last two weeks and feel excited again to jump into a MMO again.

[@Thraex]

Good luck! Most importantly remember to have fun and enjoy your experience on the way through. Make sure you read the dungeon quests, those give some solid lore!

Ahhh, so many good memories of LBRS and UBRS, can't wait to for classic to return! And thanks for vid!

[@Hangnailer47]

So are you still playing?

[@KevinFitzMauriceEverett]

Your dungeon guides cover quests, bosses, loot, and more. That is needed. What I have never seen anywhere is dungeon guides by class. Yes, there are dungeon guides by class loot and quests. What I am talking about is telling a class how to play, move, and fight each boss giving options depending on level and spec. Telling where to stand, what spells or abilities to use and not use, how not to pull argo, how to support the heals and tank, when to use or not use a pet, and all the dynamics for each class.

[@michaelvittori8525]

Good video !! I'd like to see one done on Blackwing Lair.

[@morpheus443]

I'd like to see raid guides. Keep the videos rolling.

[@whichway-557]

i would love to see guides for late game content such as rep farms(what reps u will need), high end cloth and end game misc items (wicked claws/flame sacks) and solid gold farming strats :) . There are sooo many guides out there but there all for lower lvl up to 40, all aimed at ur mount but after that there isnt much as far as good reliable videos.

[@Krzych66665]

I would love to see more guides, especially for class quests

[@steelveinsy]

I think a guide where you talk about dungeon 5 man set up for end game.. like what each class brings to a dungeon grp and what you pref / likes to bring to your dungeon runs. I think thats unheard of? Great guide BTW

Hi Traex for content i would like to see an guide to warriors who is just starting to tank endgame dungeons and so maybe starting from lev 55 and up to and including 60, in the guide i would love to see what gear to go for "quests and so on" and spec... you could call it a bis scenario for a freshly dinged lev 60 warrior :) any way great content your making looking forward to more

Thanks for explaining every boss without actually explaining the dungeon AT ALL.

Guides on how to efficiently level professions so we don't waste valuable resources. Thanks for the video :-)

[@kilrmonjaro]

After Scholomance, Perhaps end game professions guides would be a good pivot

[@Thraex]

I'll think about that, my big concern is that there are already so many of them out there, so I'd have to think of something to vary my guide from the others.

[@jduhlace83]

I've been watching your videos for a bit now and my favorite part is the explanation of the quests and their locations per dungeon. First off, treat yourself to an intro/outro. Create your own brand. Second, make a note for BiS items if they drop off of a boss or are a quest item attached to the dungeon. Third, a profession guide geared towards profession quests. I never knew about the blacksmithing quests you mentioned and I have no idea if there are more profession quests. Thanks for the awesome content!

[@Thraex]

Hmm, good idea. Blacksmithing actually has a bunch of cool quests that let you produce weapons that only last an hour, or other weird stuff (that I honestly didn't know about until a month ago). BiS items is a good idea especially since we are in the last stretch of dungeons, so I'll make sure to include that in the Scholo video!

would be cool to see guides for off meta specs (itemization, build, etc)

[@marquistador2978]

You should do a guide on raids once you're done with the dungeon series

[@TheSwartz]

I like this dungeon guide, I see you have others (maybe all of the dungeons?) However, I know there will be differences between official classic and how some things were on the private servers. So, as a suggestion, maybe to update videos (as appropriate) after you've had a chance to compare them? Unless, you find no changes, but I guess we'll all just have to see! *anxiously waiting.. one more.. week....* Thanks!

[@Thraex]

One thing I do with my videos is research and talk about old values. I think in blackrock depths I state (this boss is coded incorrectly so what you see on the screen isn't what I'm going to be explaining). Obviously my memory isn't perfect, but I want this as close to accurate as possible!

[@poland_stronk3044]

Would be nice to see some videos about stats, how they work etc. and what items to look for depending what class you play. Also I believe that talent trees still need to be explained ^^ I bet most new players will just look for ''best talent tree'' on internet believing there is some meta build instead trying to creat their own unique tree matching their playstyle.

[@Thraex]

Hmm, good idea. I'd have to do the research for that one because to be completely honest I'm not sure how much stat calculations work myself.

[@Sempron9003]

I'd like to see zone questing guides, divided by each zone and possibly targeting main story lines if there are such. Would be great and probably a huge source material. :) I'd also like to participate in the 3 month gametime giveaway
