I loved the scourge invasion back in the day - fun times!
I think if it is a big success they may have Classic and Wrath as separate servers myself.

Just curious what people think of my proposed horde comp.
I three-box, and plan to only raid on one toon, and I guess farm and explore when I'm not raiding. I only want to dps in raid.
My comp will be-
Mage (raid toon)- undead
Priest- undead
Hunter- orc
I thought maybe of going with a warrior instead of the hunter, but I love hunters! It's the closet thing I have to a main in BFA
So there is no auto looting in classic, only shit+right click.
In retail I use the 'Interact with Target' on the corps to let my minions pick up their loot. Unfortunately the equivalent to that method in classic would be to shift+'Interact with Target' .. but this comb doesn't work. Does anybody know a workaround other than giving Lootmaster to your main account?
The auto-loot option was present in the BlizzCon demo for Classic, probably because auto-looting was already a thing in Vanilla with Shift+click, so they left it. I don't think the #NoChanges crew is up in arms about his being left in, so I doubt it'll be removed since Blizzard has already stated they'll be using the modern interface on top of the Classic client.Quote:

An alternative would be warrior, shaman and warlock if you want to min/max melee buffs for your warrior who will be doing most of the DPS most of the time. Imp buffs and curse of recklessness plus totems add a decent amount of DPS for a fury/prot warrior. Hell, even two healers would be solid so you could just go ham on the warrior.
Most importantly you want a way to combat fear and to dispel magic effects and slows on your warrior.
Thinking of a good composition for 2 5-man teams that I can throw together and do 10 mans with. This is what I have so far:
Team A
Warrior
Priest
Druid
Mage
Mage
Team B
Paladin
Paladin
Mage
Mage
Warlock
I 5 boxed a few teams back in BC through WotlK and loved it and am looking to expand the challenge a bit with 10 mans.
I realize that individually, as 5 man teams, they are not the best but with 10 mans in mind I was going for:
Tank
O Tank
2-3 Healers
5-6 DPS
Appropriate array of buffs and utility
Are there any changes I might make to the two teams to ensure more success or to make things easier on myself?
**Edit: Swapped out S Priest for additional Mage. Forgot it was after BC before they became mana batteries.
Long time lurker here. I did some 2/3 boxing back in TBC. I’ve been considering getting back into it for classic. What would be the best way to practice between now and launch? Get ISB working on a few retail trial accounts? Try to use HKN or ISB on private servers that permit it? Something else entirely? I understand that any way will likely require adjustments once Classic launches, but I would like to choose the path that minimizes friction in the transition to classic. I probably have more catching up to do working with boxing software than I do on classic gameplay basics. Thanks!
I re-upped my old retail accounts and started leveling new toons so I could work out my ISB setup, macros and addons. Same as you, just trying to prep to be ready when it hits.
I've only run Deadmines and Stockades so far - but, needing the practice, I'll go on up the line.
That's how I'd level them.Quote:

If you're mostly looking at PvE I'd also swap out one of the mages in the first group for a hunter. Kiting makes a lot of fights much easier (Drakkisath) and tranquilizing shot is mandatory in some raids.
You prefer druid over paladin for off-tank? Are the priest buffs enough to warrant giving up the extra mage?Quote:

Human warrior, pallys
Night elf hunter and druid
Gnome priest, mage, warlock or go dwarven priest?
