Grats on 60 and your successful MC pug, sounds like a lot of fun, and almost certainly much too easy! Get any loot?
No loot unfortunately, but the guild got some nice pieces so it was a big win.
my Guild <Praxis> got server first MC ! ( Zanadalar Tribe EU) while racing another guild <TRASH> AND https://classic.wowhead.com/item=17204/eye-of-sulfuras dropped !! meanwhile am lvling my priest lvl 44 dwarf priest and am at 300 tailor/280 ench xD

Massive congrats, that is huge! Drop rates seem a lot higher than private?! Today alone we had a Myrmidons Signet, Boots of avoidance, Wardens staff, Plans: Lionheart helm and the epic skin off of the beast in UBRS. There were probably a few others too, but damn, it seems like a lot of these drop rates are WAY higher on Classic. Its not just us either, a lot of other guilds on our server have been noting the same thing. Could just be us BSing, but we are consistently getting flooded with quality loot.
Where did you get this number?
I've run scans on my high/full pve realm from a completely empty database, so it would only be off by "whatever amount of players logged on/off during a 30min period" which would also cancel itself out.
I've seen counts in excess of 15k just for alliance side
Now granted my realm is likely 60/40 Ally favored but I'm inclined to think that Realms reach capacity (= show queue) at closer to 30k players.
Re: difficulty.
I'm not yet in raids but I passed the mid-point and doing some of the instances at Uld/ZF range things do feel off.
My working theory if this holds up, is that if they are being truthful that their "reference" client and data was found in some TBC backups
(and it's not just embellishment to add some "flavor" to an otherwise geeky story)
They might be using as a comparison point the "state of 1-60" as it was in TBC pre-patch or early BC.
Because what I'm seeing now in instances is exactly what I remember them feeling like going 1-60 with alts in BC.
I was taking it very slowly so far. I wanted to enjoy the levelling ride the best I could. Apart from that I also had to study the first week of launch quite a lot so I couldnt put much time into it anyway. Right now I am lvl 38 and closing in on the sweet lvl 40. Still gotta do a lot of gold farming until 40, right now I am at about 50g but with that lvl 40 spell costs I gotta get much more. I dont expect I would have enough money to buy mount right away but hopefully pretty soon after that. I had a lot of fun so far as well as some unpleasant moments including one where I realized I am kinda getting annoyed by a irl friend of mine after all that time spent with him grinding, lol.

Thank you ! , it certainly feels more rewarding yes, yesterday a guildie got Staff of Jordan drop in SM cath trash !!! AND another guildie got Crusader enchant formula in less than 2h farming (its worth 500g in our server ) !
@Stfuppercut that’s unbelievable. I raided in vanilla and remember wiping on all those. 4 golem pulls. 2 imp group pulls.
Something smells fishy here. Not sure if pservers were the ones off or if Blizz accidentally made the raids a cakewalk.
Main tank wearing scarlet chest and a bunch of random level 40 blues. All dps warriors except one wearing SM helmet. I've never seen so many carrot on a sticks. To be clear, no one on this raid team has done UBRS. Not once. I cant express how poorly geared this group is.
So this feels fishy indeed. Like yeah, we know how to play the game better and itemization and specs etc. etc. etc.
But something has to be super off for it to be this easy, with this gear. I'm kinda worried.

What do you mean you ran scans?
Not disputing your numbers or anything, just curious how you did this.
What do you mean you ran scans?
I used an in-game addon (CensusPlusClassic) that does /who breakdowns (adds qualifiers until it gets less than 50 results) and adds them all together to count unique characters on a realm for the faction you're running it on.
There were probably a few others too, but damn, it seems like a lot of these drop rates are WAY higher on Classic.
I dunno dude, maybe have a word with the https://classic.wowhead.com/npc=2351/gray-bear - I get the feeling https://classic.wowhead.com/item=3476/gray-bear-tongue only occurs in albino bears based on the abysmally low drop rate.
I was level 48 on friday...but I decided to quit the game.
I'm very unhappy with the game, it's not WoW Classic for me, but something else that doesn't give me the Classic feeling back. I had way more fun on private servers.
So ye - I am out of classic wow.
Could you elaborate please? I am curious to hear a different view on the matter.
So happy to have him!
Congrats Jax! You think you will wait till the next phase for the free Epic or put down the gold beforehand?

Thank you Peon! You asked good question... I want Dreadsteed so much (which is not free, cheaper but not free) but I also want Epic as soon as possible, but on the other hand cos of layering, no bgs, getting epic mount asap is not such necessity and that gold could go into some bis items already... I dont know to be honest. I am leaning towards getting items 1st and if I get good roi through AH flipping I will buy mount during Phase 1 then ofc get Dreadsteed, if not I will patiently wait for Dreadsteed.
Taking sometime to report my progress!
As undead I ran to barrens because my friend is a troll priest so we can level together.
Left barrens and went to Stonetalon and i think I finished all the quests there!
We did WC and ragefire, looking forward to the weekend to do SFK!!
One of my favorite dungeons!
I am 25 and 1/2 at the moment and heading to thousand needles!
125/150 tailoring
200/225 skinning
8g at the moment, spent money on skills/abilities, a wand on the AH and about 2 gold on wool to level tailoring
Can't wait for level 30 when I can get Siphon Life!
But really want level 42 for Death coil and of course mount!
The pace has been slower than i wanted but it still has been really fun!!!
Sometimes I find myself helping others finish there quests even though I completed them!
EDIT: Also leveling with a warlock has been so much easier than my Priest in Vanilla, but that can also be because i was an idiot and never usded my wand and didnt know what i was doing lol
Either way I have been enjoying Warlock as a class and feel very strong while soloing because i have a few oh shit survival tools to get away!
