It's very hard to wait, but I'm trying my hardest to save my experience for release.

I have been, and it's made me even more confused as to what I want to play... Unless you're already really good and experienced with the endgame, it just adds a lot of confusion to drop into a level 60 character to try and figure out what you'll like to play at endgame. Especially since leveling is a bit part of the experience as well. Also there's the fact you'll probably never have as good as gear on these instant-60 servers, and with the fact you'll likely never go against people with the same itemization as you. :lol:

The second One is use is
https://www.wowclassicbis.com/
Oh my gosh, thank you. I couldn't remember what that URL was to that site!

No... I'm practicing on a private Burning Crusade server :)

And I'm making notes of EVERYTHING. I'm making notes of the real level ranges of each zone. I'm making notes about the best way to powerlevel tailoring, blacksmithing, and cooking (make woolen bags from level 105-115, then red woolen bags from 115-125, then bolts of silk from 125-145, then back to red woolen bags from 145-150...). I have notes on which NPCs give which class-specific quests. I'm jotting down the vendor values of all the quest rewards so I know which ones to pick when none of them are appropriate for my class. I even have a "wow spider legs.txt" file that includes the following section:
fish oil used for shaman water-walking
naga scale 1 tailoring recipe
sharp claw 2 blacksmithing, 1 alchemy recipe
large fang 1 enchanting, 2 leatherworking, 3 blacksmithing
light feather used for "slow fall" and "levitate"
vibrant plume darkmoon faire???
torn bear pelt darkmoon faire???
small venom sac 1 first aid recipe
large venom sac 1 alchemy, 1 first aid, 1 rogue poison
shiny fish scales used for shaman water-breathing
discolored worg heart 1 alchemy recipe
raptor hide 3 leatherworking recipes
deviate scale 3 leatherworking recipes
long tail feather 1 leatherworking recipe
slimy murloc scale 2 leatherworking recipes
perfect deviate scale 2 leatherworking recipes

Notes on everything.

Currently just dueling and hanging out at https://pvp.henhou.se/

It's a fun little custom server made for premade bgs and dueling. Everything is layed out for you, so making a character and getting gear is easy

Surprised to see many are already playing on private servers. Personally, I wanna wait until classic drops. That way the experience is as fresh as possible. The withdrawal is kicking in pretty hard though, so I wouldn't blame anyone for taking a sneak peak :mrgreen:

I didn't "forget" anything. I'm still at only level 42 and still making notes.

Yeah, I'm thinking I might suck it up and jump on a vanilla server. I plan on leveling semi-casually anyway, so I may just roll something I know I would never main and just fuck around.

Yeah, I'm getting a feel for levelling economies and making sure I can get a mount as soon as I hit 40. So far I've been able to get well over that 100 (90) gold mark even without tradeskills, so I don't think its going to be an issue.

Don't wanna burn myself out before Classic even hits. I know my main, I know my alt and the 12 years of playing the game is enough practice for now.
