[Classic] Good farming team?

Gotcha thanks, that makes sense.

I suggest everyone stay clear of hunters. I cant imagine having to deal with ammo again, along with the dead zone and pull trapping.

If blizzard is going to eventually release Burning Crusade then ele shamans are the way to go once that is out.

Oof, yeah - Hunter's, imho, would be very very sketchy in Vanilla, that inbetween spot where they're stuck not being able to shoot would be a pain to get around at a times if you weren't 100% on top of aggro, and i can't remember when they made it so you could actually shoot while moving. Not to mention the ammo situation, lol.

I don't think i'd consider anything other than Priest + 4x Mage or 4x Warlock, and maybe 5 Shamans.

I think the hunter movement largely came along with the talent redesign (read: dumbassification) with the possible exception of Aimed Shot. I don't recall having any of that in the 30/21 build days. Which is why Feign Death resists were so annoying. [edit] Old talent calc shows Arcane shot as instant, but I recall that being a mana hog as BM.

FYI, the old patch notes up through 1.12.x are here if y'all are interesting in some historical reading. http://wowwiki.wikia.com/wiki/Patches/1.x

[edit2] The more I look at this, I wonder if 4-5x shadow priests would be worthwhile due to Vampiric Embrace healing for 30% of damage output. I seem to remember that working somewhat but I do know I never made it to max level with them and my memories from vanilla are...chaotic and admittedly somewhat rose-tinted.

I remembered seeing some videos of 4-5x Spriests from back in Vanilla and the self healing alone was pretty crazy, so i went and checked what the % on Vampiric Embrace was back then(on Classicdb.ch). It seems to be 20% with the option to put 2 talents into Improved Vampiric Embrace for another 10% total. So yeah, i think the self healing alone would be pretty good.

Also lol Feign Death resists, i remember going afk while FD in Ironforge once and came back to my Hunter actually dead, fun times.
