World of Warcraft Classic Discussion Megathread

[Apatheist]

Thinking of playing 5 mages when Classic is released. Does anyone know if AoE abilities like Blizzard could be synchronized across all of them? I'm guessing it could if targeted on one location\mob. Anyone know if that's possible as it would be pretty amazing?

If Blizzard don't change their mind about using the modern API there will be all sorts of addons and conditionals that will be available that weren't in vanilla proper. Weakauras, player debuffs, /focus, [nochanneling], /castsequence -- as well as the ability to target GTAE skills using @player and @cursor.

I was planing of dual boxing a warrior-priest combo. Warrior for raiding and priest for pvp later on. I was thinking of adding a mage to my Team for portals, food, aoe farm and mby soloing 5-mans later. Will that slow me down in the leveling-phase?

It will slow you down in terms of splitting your XP per kill kill further and increasing the time it takes to complete some quests. However, it'll also speed up your leveling a fair bit having access to free food and water and being able to teleport between cities. A lot of classic quest chains have ridiculous travel times between zones and even across continents.

Unless you just want to play a priest, shaman or paladin will provide far more useful buffs for your warrior.
