Classic Plans

[WinconGaming]

I'm so excited to 5 or maybe even 10 box a team when Classic comes around. Being able to solo level 60 pre-raid dungeons is such a cool concept. Going to try something drastically different then what I've done in the past to maximize the loot tables and prevent wasted gear.

Plan on running a Warrior - Druid - Shaman - Priest - Mage team, not entirely sure about the mage yet but we'll see. The survivability from 3 different healing classes that can all do decent range DPS is going to be a lot of fun.

So, what's your plans?

I think including a Mage in most teams will be a must, for faster traveling. I'll definitely be doing a mixed team of some type. Honestly it is still too early to nail down teams for myself. I want to know more details on the final configuration of the server rule set. I.e. addons, client version (important for IsBoxer support), talent tree and many more.

I think there's still too much information outstanding to make solid plans. Will we get any QoL changes? Balance across classes? Will we have auto loot, area loot, interact-with-target?

Hell, we don't even know if there will be pvp/pve servers or if they'll use the new toggle they're planning?

Assuming the only long-range travel options are blimp/boat, then yeah, I'd expect mage portals will be a hot commodity.

True that. I think it will be a lot more helpful than Warlock Cookies and Soul Stones. The real question, is it worth dropping a healing class for a Warlock? The versatility of 3 classes with the ability to heal will be really nice at 60, hell I could realistically multi-box all of MC with three healers (Sha-Priest-Druid).

Depends on how they deal with Paladins, I think. They were all over the map back then. If they keep current talent trees and just revert content (which I expect to be the plan), prot paladins will still be pretty nifty.

Light of the Protector will be good. Sadly, consecrated ground is 90, so that won't apply.

[edit] Guardian druids will be good, too, I suspect.

Wayyyy too early to start planning anything really. It'll only set you up for disappointment when things don't align with how you're envisioning it.


Actually, that may happen regardless!!

What were some ideal group composition s for vanilla wow?

I've scrolled the Internet and could barely find any group setups for vanilla wow. The ones I mainly seen was for TBC or later.

So far I think I am going to go:

warrior(prot at 30+)
Rogue (combat)
Priest (holy/disc)
Shaman (enhance/resto)

The rogue in the group is a must since when I decide to stop multiboxing, that is the character I would want to play.

I am unsure what I want for a 5th. This group is mainly for instance running with very little world pve and no pvp.

Any suggestions for a 5th member? I was thinking of mage for sheep/water, arms or fury war for extra windfury dps or maybe another rogue for the same.

Edit: thank you Mirai.

I've merged two classic threads. I don't feel that we need multiple threads about classic servers at this time because it's all just theorycrafting and guesswork until Blizzard releases details about these servers.
