Re: PLEASE Fix the Blessings/Totems Buff Conflict Bug

How about this? Paladins and Shaman are blocked from group together in dungeons/raids... cause you know, NEVER was a Classic thing and so what if we have X-faction? X-faction has issues. It SHOULD. It's not even close to the WoW developers concept of the game. (well obviously that is not gonna happ...

Re: PLEASE Fix the Blessings/Totems Buff Conflict Bug

We're aware of this "bug". We've already had many discussions on this in the class channels on Discord as well. In short, retail/classic never had Shamans and Paladins being able to group up and thus it was never balanced around these buffs stacking. The team will refrain from altering th...

PLEASE Fix the Blessings/Totems Buff Conflict Bug

For those who don't know, there is a bug on the vMaNGOS server core that pretty much all Vanilla pservers, including Turtle WoW, use as a basis; the bug causes totems to overwrite/remove similar buffs created by Paladins (Windfury and Strength of Earth Totem overwrites both Blessing of Might and Kin...

Re: Removing/reducing Transmog for Class / Item Identity

Skin identity is a huge part of the game. In every interaction of the game, the skin of the gear has an influence. I've always found this to be something that's greatly overexaggerated. Sure, back in the day tier sets were something of a much more legendary status, but these days a lot of classes' ...

Re: Racial melee specialization rebalancing.

I think that overall, its probably an improvement over the current system, and it does give a decent bit more flair to the other races in some ways.

Probably not. The hope of Classic+ type servers removing the debuff limit has existed for as long as the idea of Classic+ has existed.

Re: Let's talk about PvP system!

I think once the server gets a bit larger, it'd be great to have more incentive for people to do BGs while leveling, by having more of an experience reward from turning in Marks of Honor; enough to be a viable supplement to questing without outright replacing questing or dungeons. You could maybe ev...

Re: Make tailoring great again

The idea of shirts giving stats goes against the entire point that shirts exist in the first place. Even if these "stat shirts" have something so overwhelmingly minor like a single point of Resistance on them, people will still wear those because it is better than nothing.

To provide a little bit more reasoning as to why I think this wouldn't work: Converting shields into bucklers to make bucklers a new thing wouldn't really work well because to do so, you'd have to significantly reduce the armor of those shields to make them into those lighter bucklers.

I think it'd be cool to have the option to tame a mechanical gorilla early on (since that's the only type of genuine mechanical beast that's really in Vanilla) but that's about it. Anything beyond that would probably be more effort than it's really worth.
