lv10 for talents, finally....was driving me crazy

[@danielgolubski8791]

Dude I treated this video like I was in college again. Best believe I took detailed notes! Thank you so much for taking the time to make this video

[@dmytrosprynsian9541]

As a completely new player to WOW I can't thank you more for this video. Everything is structured and explained so well. Amaizing work!

[@starchaser6024]

To be experiencing WoW for the first time, and for it to be classic wow.. amazing 🥰

[@maximemorinleblanc7795]

same here. ready to start levelingfor end game with my veteran wow friends

[@joelperez5471]

Hey, how has your experience been with WoW so far? I've been debating getting into WoW but wanted to hear some other new player experiences before!

[@dmytrosprynsian9541]

​@@joelperez5471 Hey, I played SoD actively for a month or so during phase 1 (lvl 25 max) and stopped as it became boring. Now it's in phase 3 and should have more things to do (also lvl 50 max now). While I stopped playing SoD, I switched to Classic wotlk. In which I got to about lvl 60-70 and stopped as well. I know that there is a lot to experience at lvl 80, but it was too repetitive for me, and I realized that I'm not enjoying it anymore. And I never tried Retail, so can't say anything about it. Overall, things I liked: - huge world without loading screens (interesting that they managed to achieve it so many years ago) - lore (it's WOW, I don't think this needs much explanation) - quite relaxing majority of the time (positive if that's what you're looking for) - nice community (at least in Classic) Things I didn't like: - you will suffer without addons and macros (I don't get why can't they just make it convenient without those) - too relaxing, you can watch a movie at the same time (majority of the time you will be killing mobs without active engagement in the gameplay) - becomes overly repetitive (like with many MMOs, make sure not to ask yourself why you still playing this :D ) As you can tell my experience was quite limited and I'm probably not the best source of information.

[@dmytrosprynsian9541]

@@joelperez5471 Hey, I'm sure I replied explaining my experience in details, but my comment is not showing for whatever reason. I will reply shorter then - SoD became boring for me in the middle of phase 1 and I switched to Classic wotlk where I got to lvl 65 or so and left as well. Overall experience was okay, but I lost interest to it faster comparing to other MMOs that I played.

[@nicholasarthur8841]

Such fond memories. I'll be thirty in July. World of Warcraft and Runescape were so huge in my childhood. Very tempting to try classic

[@nickyvissicky79]

Same boat - I’m 27. Jumped into WoW and can confidently say it is satiating all my nostalgia. It’s very reminiscent of how it was and there’s tons of people just like us playing. Definitely worth.

[@rayleigh5336]

As someone whos looking forward to start playing WoW classic with the season of discovery i cant explain how helpful this video was to me! Im also really surprised on how underrated the video is considering the Quality of it. So thanks for taking your time making this Video. Im sure it helped and will help a lot of new players like me.

[@LuckyGhost]

Thanks a ton!

[@krushrtv]

People like you keep the game alive! Huge respect for this amount of work.

[@Larsson91ml]

No he doesnt.

[@Dualities]

Doesnt sound like a bot promo comment at all xd

[@Calciferno]

Cheers for the massive video, that would have taken a lot of work. Sometimes it's difficult not knowing what you need to know. That's why comprehensive guides like this are sooo good. Learned a lot especially about macros and available add-ons, I now feel ready for when SoD starts. For the Horde! 🤘

[@Pedelty]

started 2 days ago, brand new player to WoW, this was packed full of really useful info that has really added to the experience!

[@dubyy4140]

This is actually incredible, really appreciate the in depth explanation of everything in this video. Seriously, thank you.

[@LuckyGhost]

Glad it was helpful!

[@Valcreee]

I just decided to play today for first time ever. I really appreciate this guide and will watch it fully before I start!

[@zantsmith4257]

insert interstellar gif of Matthew McConaughey punching on the bookshelf from inside the blackhole crying dont do it no !

[@GlitteringMagic]

I’ve been playing wow since day 1, but man, this video was so well structured and spoken that I watched the whole thing without even realizing. Even though I already knew everything in the video, I still walked away feeling enlightened lol. You explain things so well, and your voice is pleasant to listen to. I also can’t imagine the amount of work that went into this video. Great, great job! If only I had this video back then on day 1, it would have been life changing 😂 Keep up the great work! I’ve no doubt you’ve helped tons of people with this one video!

[@mochabearry]

Wow Veteran here and will still happily listen to all of this. Always just love listening to WoW info. Gets me even more pumped up for SoD, oh man!!

[@salttrader]

You weren't kidding that it is a complete guide, I have played since Vanilla but have been in and out since the end of MOP when our guild broke up. Very keen for SoD, excellent video.

[@HYMSeb]

Never thought I would spend 2 hours watching a guide but, by God this was good, thank you very much!

[@ry_an_uk]

im only at 11mins, but wow. i am already impressed by how the video is build and how smoothly you explain everything. imma watch the whole thing now, probably no better guide out there! keep it up man! update: im done watching it now and it was absolutely insane. thank you very much for this guide, it really did help me alot!❤

[@LuckyGhost]

So glad to hear it!

[@Brosifer]

Amazing video! saved to watched later since I only got 20 mins in. First time ever trying WoW with a couple of buddies and this is really helping understand everthing needed! I don't feel like a nube now!

[@RichSmithson]

Watched the whole video. Haven't played Classic since launch in 2019 and was a little scared getting back into everything again. But this video has made it all come back and now I have a list of the best addons again. Thanks Heaps!

[@onurbaser]

Thank you Lucky Ghost! This video is awesome for someone like me coming from ESO. I will start WoW SoD, this is what I needed. Cheers...

[@scruffytlr789]

Having played in over 15 years and I feel fully ready to roll. Thank you very much!

[@marcosberges1387]

What a video mate! Congratulations and ty so much ❤🎉

[@estel-randir]

Thank you for this! I just recently started playing classic (right before SoD -- how stupid, I know!) but this was a great overview and I'm excited for what's to come.

[@bigbabyjack]

This is my first time playing WoW and I can’t stress enough how helpful this video has been. I keep coming back to it. Thanks so much!

[@LuckyGhost]

so glad to hear it helped, and thanks so much for coming back and commenting !

[@Sabertooth12]

Thank you for the video. I've been and on/off player sice 05. It's nice to come back and see the popular and useful addons to make the whole experience more enjoyable. Thank you again sir!

[@cptcaveman1986]

Wow! Thanks so much for the in-depth guide! Can't wait to jump in on sod

[@raeanna451]

Great vid, thanks for going through the work and releasing this. Great info 👍

[@LuckyGhost]

My pleasure! Thanks for the kind words

[@SimonGrmm]

Thank you for going so in-depth on everything :)

[@sethgunn2385]

Great video Lucky I learned a lot about the game I've been playing off and on almost half my life time! Thanks

[@LuckyGhost]

Heck ya! Thats what I hoped for!

[@Thunsegen]

Thank you for this incredibly comprehensive video. Back to WoW after 16 years... I had forgotten most of it.

[@orcthebot]

the best up to date guide for wow classic and thanks for making it a real beginner guide, not like the ones that says beginner and acts like you already know all basic stuff...

[@notavery]

this is an amazing guide! i've always played retail but classic always scared me weirdly enough because there's so many differences, yet its actually so much simpler. classic wow is older than me so i wasn't even able to experience its peak. thank you!

[@LuckyGhost]

Glad I could help!

[@Fowl797]

Awesome work man! Helped me alot.

[@sfbandyman8304]

Thank you for this! I just decided to give WoW a try today and this video helped tremendously!

[@taylorsoileau28]

Season of Discovery comes out Nov 30!! Make sure to log in. It will be very crowded first couple weeks but that’s a great thing because so many people to play & group with & easy to make friends you can play the entire season with!

[@dustinmiddleton2336]

such an awesome guide! seems like you put a lot of work into it. Thanks for all the info!

[@LuckyGhost]

Glad it was helpful!

[@Cooperharley0204]

Love the content brother! Nice work. Would love to see more WoW content from you, but nonetheless all your content is fantastic!

[@mikkriive2687]

nice guide :D really expanded my viewpoint about the game

[@andycastaneda2519]

This in an incredible guide. Great video!

[@matthewdillon7872]

Never played WoW in my life, friends have played for 8ish years and told me to try out Sod. This is the best guide I've ever seen for any game thank you so much man this game is so confusing for new players

[@Diana-ie4oq]

Can't thank you enough for this comprehensive explanation - I was so lost starting my first character & learned some of these the hard way

[@caseyaston4273]

Planning on playing again so this refresher was nice.

[@aguss3163]

La mejor guía que vi en toda mi vida. Mi ingles no es muy bueno, pero aún así me sirvió mucho, gracias!!

[@marcosjoaquinbergesbuxeda836]

What a video man. Saw it all. Congratulations

[@LuckyGhost]

Thanks a ton!

[@adgr5744]

I never ever played WoW and just wanted to play it for the first time with the new Season of Discovery and this video was very helpful with the classes and races Thanks alot

[@LuckyGhost]

[@timmeytim405]

I am going to start wow in 1 or 2 weeks and this video is absolutely huge for ne. Thanks a Lot!

[@AlexEnMadrid91]

Amazing guide! Thanks a lot!

[@Bruno-rm4zq]

Tysm! Gonna get my popcorn and get ready to SoD! Never played nothing before BFA, so I can't wait. I do hope the best for classic cause I do feel like changing from retail.

[@taylorsoileau28]

You will love it. Classic is such a good game & SoD is such a good time to get into it!!! Fresh servers are amazing. So much fun!!!

[@TheGuachoCN]

I loved this video, this should be an illustrated book guide, it's so well explained and easily understood

[@1Silverlining]

This is the BEST guide, I have ever watched!!

[@deanm375]

[@shane724]

[@Alexandros.Mograine]

i have played classic on and off for like 10 years now and still watched this :D

[@Lifendason]

Wow, awesome video Ghost. I'm sure many folks will benefit from this.

[@kennymcintyre4791]

Started wow yesterday for the first time and quickly realize I would need a guide. I'm glad your guide was the first one I found, so well made. Now I think my challenge now will be to find people to play with that has patient for a noob 😉

[@allenjohnroe]

great video! i do a few things everytime i log a new character. 1 hit V, it turns on enemy healthbars (in large open world or multi raid pvp i hit shift v to show friendly HP bars) goto options by hitting esc or the computer at the bottom, under options i click auto loot. Then goto interface and turn off helm and cloak. Under action bars i just click all 4 bars not just the 2 the author here does. under combat i turn on "enable floating combat text, and select "scroll down". This makes outgoing damage and healing go up while incomming damage and healing goes down. I also use a multi button mouse with 12 thumb buttons so i do some fancy keybindings making them my auto run, personal/raid & groupbuffs. on my characters with healing i make the f1 through f8 buttons the action bar above my primary bar so i can just move up a row and off heal. I also go into the options on my chat settings and select "show class colors" on general and global settings, Dont forget to select lfg and any other channels under global you would like to join. good luck and may the wow gods bless you with epic loot.

[@LegendarySilence]

My wife and I just started playing WoW Classic and we came into the problem of anytime we searched something to learn more about WoW, we were met with a bunch of advanced, end game guides. For example, I looked up "where to buy mounts" and the top 8 recommended videos were "Best Mounts in Game!!" And "How to Get the Rarest Mounts!" Things that really weren't applicable to us. Right as we were about to give up on this game, we found your guide and it uas helped so much, that we are not uninstalling and are instead moving forward with great passion! Thank you so much!

[@blurryhm2013]

As a player looking for new MMO’s and etc , this video has really helped a lot , best spent 2 hours of my life

[@batectazo7880]

[@11080chooiy]

the universe of Warcraft has been in my life since the RTS Orcs & Humans when it came out and I played it on MS-DOS and WoW since its launch (yes I am old-ish :D).. I want to thank You for this AMAZING video.. you Sir have done an amazing job in explaining the core of this game.. as an experienced player I most certainly will send Your video around to any new players wanting to start this epic journey.. the only thing I cannot agree with is the reading part hehehe :D you have got to READ the quests thoroughly :D I will definitely save Your video for my kids to learn off of.. RESPECT to You my friend! Lok'tar Ogar!!!

[@LuckyGhost]

Wow this is so kind and thank you so much for sharing!

[@PmmGBalu]

dude this is a really cool video for beginners. I played wow for decades and know 99% of your explanations but its awesome for newbies

[@Alucardd-tt8eb]

16:29 this can also be a negative in certain situations. There have been many times when playing as a gnome where I couldn't cast on a target because I was too short to see them. I would often have to carry noggen fogger's or savory deviate delights to circumvent this, which wasn't hard but was a pain.
