Humor / Meme Shoutout to that Warlock that yoinked Ashbringer from the last Naxx of TBC

Post image

That Warlock in StaySafe’s last Naxx of TBC that yoinked Ashbringer a couple years ago, I guess he was playing the long game because in a few months it will be useable in the Mists of Pandaria pre-patch.

No joke, you might be the first person to ever actually answer with a real reason. Enjoy your PvP!

I actually do think WoD classic will slap, if we get it, which I bet we will if nothing else but to get to Legion. I’ll be shocked if it doesn’t end there though.

The issue was lack of content. Classic gets content faster, plus, they may actually try to restore some stuff, but, I shouldn’t get too hopeful.

Actually the issue with WoD was the first implementation of stat squishing, not that it was a problem with the game because yeah maybe numbers were starting to get too high. Nevertheless, the first stat/number squish and scaling system is what makes WoD NOT Classic. But a serious problem I have with WoD as a pvp player was class toolkit gutting. Removing iconic abilities from so many classes for no reason. It felt like an expansion that got rid of everything that made MoP fucking peak.
