World of Warcraft Classic Discussion Megathread

[MiRai]

Against my better judgement I just signed up for the Classic Beta. I typically never play wow betas, but I'd really like to test some team and profession comps out before August rolls around

You can only gain access to beta once per BNet account, so unless you signed up on multiple BNet accounts and have them actively sub'd, you will only be selected one time.

Have you tested this using characters with wands equipped? Remember some time during Cataclysm (I think) IWT with wands started only moving your characters into wand range.

I have not specifically tested it on this newer build, no, but I tested exactly what you ask in my Classic BlizzCon Demo video, and it worked just how it used to.

• It is still expected that /follow is disabled while in PvP combat, but I obviously cannot test this out on my own.

I wonder, do duels count as PvP combat? If one were to initiate combat during a duel and the try to /follow a friendly player from outside the duel.

• Yes, add-ons are enabled and the ISBoxer add-on works with no noticeable issues.

Are you aware which version of macros are working? Are macro generated by ISboxer still working?

I'm not sure I understand the question.

If you're asking if 1.12 Vanilla macros work, then no, because Classic is currently built upon the 8.X API (and ISBoxer can't use the 1.12 API). On the other hand, if you're asking about macro conditionals, such as [mod:shift] and others like it (that ISBoxer uses for FTL), then yes, since, again, Classic is currently built upon the 8.X API.

8.X API.

Any chance you could test whether the [@player] condition works with GTAE skills like blizzard, rain of fire, etc?

Son, I'm a Warrior - Get some other lackey to test out those conditionals.

Actually, it just occurred to me that we could use [@player] to toss grenades and stuff on melee teams. That's pretty OP.

I don't think it would happens and it's probably a big no, but can we use cross realm battle net friends on classic ? I'm not talking about usual cross realm, just the part where you can summon friends from other server when you have their battle net.
That's really a feature that i will miss. I loved my old cross-realm team who can travel accross realms at will.

Few question about engenering in wow classic :

- Can you learn Gnomish engenering, unlearn and respeck Goblin and keep your Gnome stuff ?
- Saper Charge ? It does domage only to you, or you're whole group ?
- Ultrasafe Transporter vs Dimensional Ripper : What is the best for boxing purpose. I remember the fail was a teleport over a cliff on the gnome one (things that's annoying while boxing), and a dot on the goblin one (don't seems too bad, especially if you have a healer on your group)
- Do you think about some tricket or specific engenering stuff who scale well with a 5man boxing team ? Will you trade a slot of you're equipement for a engenering item outside of dungeon for one or more of your characters ?
