Which Version of WoW Should YOU Play In 2024? (there's A LOT of them) | World of Warcraft

The thing about cata and people enjoying the endgame/performance based gameplay is that its just occurred from conditioning classic players into retail and then they'll come back and reminisce about the actual mmorpg feel of vanilla again. Many players on the other hand already dipped out of cata and are back on era, hc or trying to get it out of SoD, which there is a competing audience of retail players who want to turn classic into retail (stupid) vs classic players who want to add new stuff without harming the original game.

[@deorwynn3597]

I've always seen vanilla as the ideal expansion to create communities and make new friends. I've been playing Cata with old friends (my guild) and it's been great. Just requires you to kind of already have the connections. I can imagine playing Cata solo and not feeling very invested. The difficulty and vast amount of mechanics makes it unappealing to more laid back social gamers as well

[@CoNteMpTone]

I’m done with retail honestly, it was hard enough coming back from lynch king and figuring out how to even play and I’m still literally confused about everything. I did however realize leveling to 80 is too easy, gearing is too easy, and delves requires you to move backwards on campaign to pass tier 3. Characters are mass OP over others and If I were to take a short break my gear would be useless, just no longer worth the premium monthly to pay.

There are Shaman tanks in Classic Era, not just in SoD. They have much better tools in SoD, but so does everyone there. I've been in a dungeon with a Shaman tanking on HC a few times, the highest level one being ST. I was a healer for one of those runs (SFK), and the tank definitely took more damage than a warrior or bear would, but it's not a significant problem because leveling content is easy, and while I had stop to drink more, so did the tank, and having to drink 5 times instead of twice in a dungeon is absolutely fine. I didn't heal in ST, so I'm not sure how much of a problem it was there, but I assume it was similar. In terms of threat, Shaman probably have more single target threat generation than the normal tanks (at least against things not immune to nature), and at higher levels when there are larger pulls they have enough tools for AoE threat to keep mobs off the healer, and focusing down targets one at a time should mean the DPS don't need to worry.

Agree to disagree. Rotations almost don't exist in classic it's so easy. Of all the versions of wow, I think retail is the most overwhelming because it's so bloated with systems upon sytems and currencies and more complex rotations. How do you get a classic rotation wrong? It's the easiest form of the game.

[@AkiRa22084]

@@wmcarter6096 That's the point. We had no idea that rotations didn't exist. We thought all of our spells had good dps/dpm and had to be mixed and weaved. It was a shock and disillusion for many to find out that they've been playing their class wrong all this time since Blizzard was incompetent to do class design. Most DF systems are irrelevant for gameplay, all the borrowed power has been removed. You seem to be stuck in a shadowlands mentality, when there were many systems and borrowed power. Legion had systems upon systems and is considered the best exspansion, since complexity is interesting while the lack of bloat is boring.

I agree the simplicity of vanilla can be a breath of fresh air. That being said, I'm enjoying Cata for what it is and am enjoying the raids a lot (Minus points for BoT trash).

I cant lie. I went back to WoW just the other day. I had a rogue who was in BFA content and i felt so lost. I know it was weird to go play pandaria remix but i wont lie if i said wasnt enjoying it. Its interesting and fun imo

[@tsarovich2394]

It makes me very sad that SoD servers are ghost towns right now. I cant blame players when they put those exp bonus buffs in and then added incursions, it caused everyone to level cap in an afternoon. They really fumbled the ball with the exp buff and incursions. Just let players level normally.

[@claing17]

Cata feels flat to me. ill check out SoD p4. im just lvling ever couple days to burn the 2x exp bar.

[@brandonwilson4740]

Its not bad. I started a week late and have been slowly leveling at my own pace and exploring. Im playing a dk for the first time. Kinda cool to go back and solo old raids for xmog. I might raid or I might not. Kinda just waiting for phase 4 of SoD

[@Arbancks]

wish it wasn't so confusing to navigate to classic, its hidden in a tab wtf

[@joshmartelli3094]

hey can someone tell me for the MoP transmogs how long would it take to get juat a mount or 2 or do i even have time to try n get anything? if so ill get on right now pre order and get some xmogs n some mounts hmu if u can tell me

[@slob1105]

Cata - finished everything, burnt out Retail - meh Remix - meh Sod - giving it a second chance, just sad to see the aus servers are like ghost towns

[@Rosie6060]

If you want to play era without the GDKP and the broken economy, just roll on the PVE cluster instead of the PVP cluser. No GDKP here whatsoever.

[@LittleJohnaton]

ty for heads up :)

[@CoNteMpTone]

Whats GDKP?

Mop remix mounts and transmog are god teir for new player and way better introduction to gameplay

[@lucabaracuda987]

i have a BIG big itch to play, especially Classic where people 'enforced' some rules on an existing server for people to make new characters from scratch, and stuff. But i love football too much and want to watch all EURO 2024 games. Oh well. Maybe after the cup.

[@ReneeWilliams]

So if you log out of hardcore then you lose your characters?

[@daveboonen5041]

I want to play this never played it. Any suggestions where to start?

[@chekitis9293]

Wanna take it chill (give small amount of time) = Classic Wanna tryhard (wanna give a lot of time) = Retail

[@daveboonen5041]

@@chekitis9293 thanks i joined retail on server doomhammer. Dont have much time tho readed this too late 😅.

[@thenerdbeast7375]

They definitely shouldn't do MoP Classic UNLESS its as a seasonal server like Season of Discovery. Look while a strange argument could be made for Cataclysm Classic, there is no defending Mists of Pandaria Classic; as good as MoP was it isn't a Classic expansion so it shouldn't have a dedicated classic server for it.

[@sk8tslide]

I mean isn’t that kind of already what it is? Season of Discovery is scheduled to last for about 1 year long total. Cataclysm classic and likely all other classic expansions are planned to last about 1 year as well. They aren’t technically listed as seasonal servers but they with each expansion being a new season.

[@Brewbear313]

In what world is there an argument to be made for cataclysm and not MoP?? I guarantee you MoP is in way more demand that cataclysm. I’d bet the house on that. This is a wild take

[@psychotropicfan]

How is there 7 versions? There's only 6 now five with pandas being gone. Unless you count PTR or betas or something

[@X.D.T.]

man, I regret not copying my toons to Era :(

[@klex666]

Do i Need do Play Classic und tbc and Wrath to understand cata? Or do i get the storys of them while playing the beginning Levels of cata Server and when i Hit the Level of cata the Story of it Beginns ?

[@pb542]

I might be wrong because I’m speaking from my experience of playing those addons when they were first released (so it was way too long ago) BUT as far as I remember you don’t need to know anything about tbc and wotlk. And I mean anything, really.

[@garryame4008]

Your beard is fantastic

[@bolindow176]

I'm a Classic Andy, I enjoy Era and Hardcore. It's fine there are choices, but I still enjoy leveling in old Azeroth more than anything else.

[@nemesis656]

You're a what?

[@MatthewSmith-uf6tr]

So Lich king isn’t playable anymore??

[@jonascourturee]

I got my two friends into wow via Hardcore lol, all three of us got to level 60 too. Took us about 6 or so characters to get there though.

[@AkiRa22084]

MoP Remix is great for new players, since it's much simpler.
