Was Vanilla WoW hard at all? Or was it just because no one knew what they were doing? So far 95% of my friends quit due to it being boring/too easy, the remaining 5% just log on for raid and that's it

Classic WoW is a fucking joke, people are on crack if they think ANY aspect of it is hard.
It was hard because people didn't know what the fuck they were doing, the idea that Cthun would have been impossible like some later bosses like hardmode yog were claimed to be is absolutely laughable, people though patchwerk was some sort of gearcheck even though people could pass it with MC gear.

It has nothing to do with it being "solved", every boss has two mechanics and dps is 2/3 button spam
Matthew Sanders
It's 15 year old game, there's not a single thing about it that's difficult, raiding is piss easy, PVP is piss easy, leveling is piss easy, the game isn't hard.

It's not that it's solved, it's that the game is just overall easy as fuck, 1-2 button rotations in raid, almost every boss has little to no mechanics, the game is barely a game.
Ayden Nguyen
Good thing you have plenty alternatives and won't play it
Jaxson Anderson
>"ZG Is when things heat up, it'll be hard!" nonody ever said this
Hunter Perry
It launched on the easiest patch. Classes are much stronger overall, and the naxx catch up gear is already in the game.
Literally doing MC with AQ+ strength gear. Of course it’s easy as shit

>"It'll take months to hit 60 and clear MC!" No one ever said that >Was cleared in first week in one night by sub level 60s >"BWL Will take weeks, the raid has mechanics!" >Cleared literally in less than an hour on first night >"ZG Is when things heat up, it'll be hard!" >Cleared in 20 minutes on first night The game is on the 1.12 version, meaning that talent trees and class tunings are overpowered relative to the content, and the raids were nerfed. Plus people play hyper meta with world buffs that literally no one used in vanilla not even guilds going for world first races that increase your throughput by 25-40% Also ZG was never harder than BWL >"Ummm...g-g-g-groups will struggle in AQ, right?!" Possibly, at least the tuning will be slightly more adapted but AQ is 1.9 and several classes got total overhauls by 1.11
Xavier Scott
everyone who actually played back then knew it wasn't going to be hard, the boss mechanics were extremely trivial
Zachary Perez
what gear do you mean? D-3 set?
Tyler Green
Fpbp
Benjamin Ross
A lot of gear was overhauled between MC and BWL and post BWL, and again between AQ and Naxx.
Colton Myers
Classic is tedious, not hard, the grinds are long, but the content is so easy it's laughable.

I assume you did all those things yourself right faggot? Private server autists did and have nothing to do with the general population of the game Yeah game is easy, I agree with you there, my guild does 1hr mc and 1 hr bwls But no way did we do that first fucking week And no one ever said ZG would be hard, literally a ketchup raid
Jason Sullivan
>"ZG Is when things heat up, it'll be hard!" Said literally nobody ever
Andrew Bailey
There was never any point to releasing classic other than a museum of what it used to be. Classic+, now that would have been a game. But there's no reason to play an mmo that has nothing left to explore in it, both in terms of physical places and strategies
Josiah Cooper
>Not having all raids cleared yet >2020
Zachary Myers
AQ will go down in less than an hour after launch, maybe two because it's a long raid Naxx MIGHT take a day, but i doubt it, a famous streamer did some maths around the DPS requirements to kill the DPS check bosses, and you can theoretically do it with less than 10 people with world buffs and AQ gear, Classic was never hard, people were just bad.
Daniel Smith
Ah yes 4 horsemen with less than 10 people.
Nicholas Russell
What about 4H? Will guilds not need the T3 set bonuses for prot warriors?
Isaiah Evans
There's no content No idea what people expected Classic was never going to turn you back into a teen
Liam Lewis
Horsemen is literally the only exception, every other boss can just fucking die before enrage and the mechanics actually do anything, the DPS requirement for bosses is pathetic, Patchwork requires less than 350 DPS per damage dealer with 28 damage dealers in a raid party, while most warriors with world buffs do over 1k with current gear, that number is probably going to be MUCH higher with AQ gear.
Hudson Peterson
who are you quoting?
Gavin Cook
World buffs is the stupidest meta because it makes the game a chore and spoils the raids. I don't understand that mentality.
Thomas Allen
>"It'll take months to hit 60 and clear MC!" >"BWL Will take weeks, the raid has mechanics!" >"ZG Is when things heat up, it'll be hard!"
nobody who actually played vanilla said this, AQ 40 will probably be a bit harder, but still be cleared on the first day, naxx also it wasnt fucking hard it was hard to get 40 geared people to actually run it

>Was Vanilla WoW hard at all? >Classic WoW is a fucking joke, people are on crack if they think ANY aspect of it is hard. What's the point of the thread if you just answered your own question?
