Arathi basin - lumbermill. I'd mindcontrol them off the cliff, jump, turn around and wave. The emote would somehow leave them floating in midair until they (or me) moved their character. hilarious.

[@semimad100]

@@WillEmmo Great lift for me :) I still remember being confused the first time i did it and they didn't die. then learned you had to take mind control off right after you jump them off for them to take all of the fall dmg. If you didn't, they will stop for a second once MC is out of range and it will save them. but i loved doing this to not only grief them but, knowing it would do inventory damage lol. i loved griefing in vanilla. me and a friend would cover a thor(flight master in westfall). I would cover his body with a kodo mount and my tauren friend would sit on his feet. people would attack us while trying to click on him and ofc we would kill them. I also would duel low level rogues in westfall then /forfeit the second the duel started because most would be spamming sinister strike and would hit me after the duel(flagging them so i could kill them). some other favorites were summoning non undead friends(who didn't have a water breathing class) in super deep water where they couldn't swim up in time before drowning. and summoning them on a super narrow branch in the back of teldrassil with probably the highest drop in the game. It was hard for people to walk on the branch even if they stopped and were trying not to fall while walking slowly but, often when people get summoned they will jump around or just walk randomly before even seeing where they are and then fall to their death.

[@Tellah3]

A point regarding the 8 piece prophecy bonus. It had an interaction with the holy talent Inspiration. When our guild was progressing through Naxx40, it became invaluable for learning the patchwerk fight. We would put our 3 main tanks and main healer in the same group with me spamming low rank prayers to keep their armor buffed by 25%. Niche for sure, but super effective.

[@Matthew-uv6gl]

A note on wands: Pick up tailoring and enchanting. You can disenchant linen green items to get enchanting high enough to make a level 5 wand and a level 13 wand. You don't need to keep tailoring/enchanting if you only want it for the starter wands. Alternatively, there will be a lot of priests doing this and I imagine most will be willing to part with a crafted wand cheap, if not free if you donate some linen cloth (it is just wood + 2 lesser essence, a couple silver worth of materials). Seek out one of these priests to get the wands early without needing the professions yourself. These will hold you over until you can do the Black Fathom Deeps quest for Gravestone Scepter. This wand is amazing for its level and will carry you up to 40 for Shadowform easy. So even the con of "starting out slow and needing to spend gold on the AH" isn't much of a con if you plan around it. The wands in the 40-55 range are not so great, and if you still want to play without the AH, try to hit up Mara or Sunken Temple for wand upgrades. As a healer you can get by squeezing into dungeons at a lower level than you normally should, since your dps against higher level enemies doesn't matter. It also breaks up the monotony of the solo dot/wand grind. Have dps minions kill stuff for you while you trail along and get loot :D

Mind Blast having higher threat was because, and hear me out here, Priests were supposed to be able to tank. Kinda why Inner Fire exists as well. But thankfully the idea was scrapped very early on and Inner Fire/Mind Blast threat are just the hold overs of that crazy idea.

[@izidor]

First Char i ever created was a Rogue..after we lost every BG at lvl 30~ cause we didnt have heals i was so mad i lvled up a Priest and played it till today.

[@cattysplat]

I played priest all through vanilla, leveling as holy priest for that true masochist experience. The class had big changes throughout the patches so the pre-TBC patch talents that Classic will be launching with massively improved the class. Prayer of healing is a truly incredibly spell, with talents, downranking and set bonus you can top the meters everytime, however I managed to actually pull boss agro from the sheer amount of healing it outputs so need to be careful. Shadow is literally gods of PvP until they run out of mana, they will destroy anyone 1v1 even in garbage gear until people are hitting tier 2, abuse the crap out of mana burn to make healers cry. Priest actually has many more weakness, is incredibly weak to rogue with no way to remove poisons and slows so enjoy the inevitable ganks, the only CC is 30 second cooldown aoe fear which is insanely dangerous for pulling more in dungeons, the lack of an interrupt outside of talented shadow silence is really awful against casters and no slow outside of channelled mindflay hurts against melee, you will be tanking alot of damage so keep inner fire and Pw:shield up at all times. Overall priest is a great class but certainly not the best, you will be competing against mages, warlocks and other healers for that sweet caster and cloth gear, utility is pretty boring and skillcap is low, plus you will be forced to heal in raids and mostly dungeons, so if you like shadow enjoy spending and farming 2x50gold every time you swap. Make sure you have a best friend as a mage as you will need that sweet sweet water, a few stacks to get by everyday else priest life is expensive and slow.

Shadow at 40 was so fun - go for max Hit so you can fight lvls way above you; DoT, slow, stun them to death. (Hmm, dammit, that was TBC, but build looks very alike here.)

[@TeamCGS2005]

Yes. I decided to level up my brother's shadow priest in tbc (he was rank 14 geared though) and I was in hellfire peninsula when I was attacked by two rogues. They must have been level 70 because they appeared as skulls to me, but I managed to kill them both at level 60. I finished the last guy off by activating the zandalarian hero charm (which I might add was still amazing in tbc before it was nerfed to bits). Remember that encounter well.

Hmmm tough choice!

Hunter probably, you can solo farm some cloth by killing humanoids while leveling and at max level then use them for tailoring on the priest.

[@sanji2158]

Shadow word pain is better than warlock dots in pve by far . it ticks harder, last longer and it procs vampiric embrace, which should be improved to heal maintank and warlock(s) lifetap damage which you will be grouped with People treat priests as poor dps, but in reality they are a hybrid healer-dps, and their total output is very respectable. if you are allowed to use shadow word pain you can and will outheal some of your healers if your group takes consistent damage. you can stack warlocks who dont use their imp for buff in a group with a SP and you will cover all lifetap damage . and on vaelastrazs you will also be able to almost singlehandedly keep your own group topped off. I would argue that any free debuff slot the raid has could open up a shadow priest slot, but for fights with low raid damage they do fall off in efficiency. Undead SP with decent spelldamage also becomes a god of grinding. shadow word pain, vampiric embrace and rank 2 touch of weaknes(due to spellpower scaling and mana cost) spam will drop a mob on the move, and you will be able to keep this going almost forever without needing to eat or drink. Any 5 man group with a druid healer also want to bring a shadow priest if possible due to their ress and slight edge over ret paladins and dps shamans

I can’t decide on a class. I’m also having trouble picking pvp/pve server. Even which faction to play. I played horde 80% of retail so I was thinking of going alliance for a fresh experience but I love to pvp and horde racials I’ve leveled a Druid to 12, a mage to 19 and now I feel like I want to play either a Spriest, lock or rogue.

[@jaredgarden2455]

As a warlock main, absolutely non of the warlock dots do anywhere near as much dps as shadow word pain. The thing is locks have alot of dots. Shadow priest at their best will do about 60% as much damage as a warlock of same gear level within a raid setting, the 15% extra shadow damage then adds to this and so if you have any more than 3 locks in a raid, you are always better off bringing a shadow priest over another lock.

I'm thinking of playing undead warlock and priest with my friend. SL warlock and shadow priest for PvP to be specific. In theory they should have some nasty synergy in PvP. They have loads of rot damage with multiple curses and other debuffs that boost shadow damage taken by insane amounts. Shadow weaving, +15% with 100% uptime - curse of shadow, +10%. 100% uptime - imp. shadowbolt, 20%, uptime scales with lock's crit (only usable with the shadowburn spec, not when specced 20 in aff for better dots). These specs have insane CC with fears, deathcoil, stun procs, and silences. But the real obnoxious kicker, is what a pair of immortal tanks they can be. SL warlocks are by themselves really tanky with 2 potential voidwalker sacrifices, the shared damage with the tanky blueberry, 10% reduced phys dmg taken, healthstones, and drain life... But add in a SP that has shields, and permanent vamp embrace to leech 30% of her shadow damage dealt to the target, and deliver it to the most injured friend. The SP isn't that squishy either, with 15% reduced physical damage taken, shields, renew, health stones, and the devouring plague heal.

Liam Wilson it may have had the classic world in it but the game wasn’t very similar to classic. WotLK introduced a lot of the “QoL” changes that started ruining WoW

[@liamwilson7549]

joey b I didn’t say anything about mechanics I simply stated the world itself.

[@liamwilson7549]

joey b and honestly there’s nothing wrong with LFG, it gives people who are solo players such as myself, the opportunity to experience the storyline in the raids.

[@liamwilson7549]

joey b yea no need to argue we all have our own views :)

[@liamwilson7549]

joey b I’m just happy there are still people around from those days, I often feel like I’m the last of my kind in wow lol 😂

When they removed priests racials, my brother yelled out in trade chat “I can’t feel Elune’s grace! My connection to my goddess has been severed. I don’t know what’s worth fighting for anymore! Guess, I’ll go to the dark side...”

[@WillEmmo]

rip, cant believe they ditched them

"Not everyone will be standing with Benediction ! Believe me !" In the mean time in Stormwind : every priest is equiped with Benediction. :D

Was 'disco bubble' priest in Classic or did that only come around in tBC? I don't remember now. I was always a druid underdogger, but later I went to Disc Bubbles and really enjoyed tossing bubbles everywhere; some keybind that would do a little explosion AoE buff, and half or all the party woudl get bubbled up was fun too.

@@professionalhater3929Speak for yourself, homeslice.

[@tedrion6420]

Can't fucking wait , this may be my last time going through vanilla so I am taking my time and enjoying the leveling

[@WarMonkeyPlays]

Can't wait for the Death Knight video!

[@WillEmmo]

Big soon

[@redeemedcoops]

2021 watching, and remembering my naive 2019 self and how excited I was in anticipation for classic - the first time I binged all these videos - and feeling like a doomer

[@ir0n2541]

Get ready to do it all over again with Classic Fresh!

[@OneOfTheLoveless]

It's weird hearing past quality willE

[@irlshrek]

dude your videos are so good

[@vellcounty213]

My Night elf Shadow Priest ( Silent ) melted faces off! He was a Night Lieutenant in PvP armor, and I stacked Intel and Stam enchants

[@skrounst]

Shadow priests might struggle in raids, but are literal GODS in PvP. Especially 1v1, a good shadow priest should almost never lose a duel, unless youre severely outgeared. welp nvm you got around to it in the video... should have just waited before commenting lol... great video!

[@WillEmmo]

Thanks haha, yep totally agree they are really scary

[@BlackBirds93]

Finally! Love your videos

[@Colabusken]

I know all of this stuff, played both actual Vanilla and some private servers. Still love these videos! Keep up the good work :).
