Stress test findings so far

[Moorea]

things I learned:

- don't auto repair, it's way too costly - turn it off in ema-classic (can we change the default to be off ?)
- don't auto sell grey, many are upgrades, better than whites etc
- bag space is huge pain; got my tailor leveled to where she could make bags, that was better, but cloth was scarce too
- collection quests are terrible- I would love love love a curated list of quests to do
- fedex list works; is there one for horde side ?
- follow doesn't work in BG (can't follow that unit) even if you queue as group

Fair enough, though at the time I pulled these, none of the popular sites had any that resulted in a stable client in the beta. The above (with noted caveats) actually work in the classic stress test and beta.

I'm assuming you meant to use the following link instead?

https://legacy-wow.com/classic-addons/

Your original link points to the Vanilla add-ons, and I doubt that there are any Vanilla 1.12.1 add-ons that work on the modern WoW API, which is why there is a massive movement to port everything over to Classic (even most BFA add-ons need to be slightly adjusted to work on Classic).

Time is a flat circle, and history repeats itself.

Yes. /facepalm. Link in other post fixed. Thanks for the spot.

legacy addons would not work as that is a old API/LUA for retell classic


Yes EMA-Ebony's Multiboxing Assistant is the new jmaba

there is a post

I'm still tossing up whether to level one toon to begin with or do my normal three boxing.
One thing I do know, is that leveling on the 27th of August will be an absolute shit show, a thousand times worse then the launch of any private server due to classic not having dynamic spawning.

Ill be running the team. You can leave starting area and take on higher mobs, and explore for discovery xp and get nodes.

Counterpoint: do you really want dynamic spawns in a starter area with aggro mobs? (Think about it at a solo player rather than a boxer.) Personally, as a 5-boxer I'd love it. Having made it to 30 on the beta server, I can see how many people would basically get murdered randomly because of spawn rates if that were in place. And the graveyard runs in classic are no joke.

I remember launch day for WoW, and I remember standing there with about 50 other people just spamming target+attack in case something popped. I also remember that situation not lasting so long that I gave up.

There are quite a few clips on YouTube of this kind of thing happening already due to the weird behavior of their "layering" tech. Running into a cleared camp only to get layered and finding yourself in the middle of 10 mobs.

Kind of funny to watch on a video but not so amusing when it happens to you, I guess.
