World of Warcraft Classic Discussion Megathread

[Apatheist]

If there are enough of the enemy faction around to kill you while boxing there will certainly be enough around to kill any single character. I feel like if anything boxing is protection against ganking in most situations.

Grinding dungeons is safer and faster than questing anyway. I'm in no rush to get to 60, apparently the current plan is to release Dire Maul one month after launch anyway and I figure we'll want to spend some time grinding DM gear as boxers before we give ZG/MC a try. Particularly if most of us plan on playing casters -- which is usually the case.

A lot of unknowns still. No idea if /follow will be disabled in world PvP or if IWT will still be present.

Those 2 things are very important. IWT could be present because it could be considere like an accessibility thing like colorblind mode. that help people who are disabled to play. then we can hope it will be present. As we all know if IWT is there that will open a lot of possibility for multiboxing.

/follow disabled in pvp is not vanilla but it could implemented. It will depend of their policy. There is no way to know what they will do about it for now.

I'm pretty excited to multibox classic, but /follow not being enabled would pretty much be the game breaker that it is for me now. I've not played since October, and BFA was the first xpac that I didn't multibox in since BC. So, fingers crossed!

Well getting rid of follow in world pvp would mean they gonna do warmode ... and they can't be that stupid people would riot all over unless they have the "YoU gUyS hAvE pHoNeS rIgHt" guy in charge.

Other than that no follow in battlegrounds wouldnt be a big deal anyway.. you're not going to make #14 by 5 boxing then anyway so just enjoy the good old world pvp at every corner and get into pugged MC for gear...maybe give toons vastly different names so no one will notice in a 40 man raid anyway

To be fair, any PvP combat, War Mode enabled or not, breaks follow. You can attack faction city guards without War Mode enabled and you will lose follow, so I would assume that those API functions would work the same way, in Classic.

Even Legion PvP WQs were causing follow to break after the BFA pre-patch, and War Mode was not required to complete those. So, again, I would bet that follow, in PvP, would work the same way, assuming those API strings stay in the Classic client for release.

what I'm worried is that they forget stuff like that before releasing the servers, then realize alot of people botting to grind #12+ and then after many boxers have their teams on lvl 60 they remove follow as on retail without announcement

Well after 2 weeks of not logging in, Im going to unsub. I had fun for the couple of months I came back to boxing, but PvP will never be the same as it was back when I did BG's 80% of the time. And the PvE game has gotten boring for me.

Im looking forward to boxing Classic without restrictions though. I do have a small bit of experience boxing dungeons and i liked it, so that slow grind will keep me entertained for a while. But boxing PvP is where its at for me and the longevity of my sub will be dependent on that.

But as of now, I honestly dont see them allowing /follow in BGs or WPvP.

I also unsub'd recently and just waiting for classic. I hope /follow is in BGS or at least WPVP. If not, I won't be playing

This is going to be interesteing, I was reading up somewhere that you can have Classic wow if you have an active licence on your battlenet and I was testing out on blizzard beta that I could have multiple Classic wow running on the one battlenet even tho I have 1 BFA licence running.

Does this mean for classic wow as long as you have a BFS licence and subscription available then you can have 1 to many classic wow accounts.
