Staying 59

[Shamma]

Bloodsail buccaneers server (NA RP-PvE) is popping with HC players. They hit 3 digit online numbers for the 1st time since before SoM yesterday. Turtle is getting competition again. They actually have an endgame goal there - they can stay HC at lvl 60 and go after Ragnaros, Ony and Nefarian. Why are we being held back intentionally? Are we afraid we might steal all their players and Blizz will come after us?!

[Sinrek]

More like devs suck at understanding how HC should be working at 60 and they just wanna have as less "separation" of the server community as possible. It takes balls to go and say: "Alright, here's your HC on 60 and never even try to bother us on restoration if you die for any reason."

As if there's no such policy already.

Hi, what do you(evryone) think of upgrading dungeon gear at lvl 59, I mean like realy hard grind in dungeons/raids to upgrade ur Dungeon gear which is not worth for a lvl 60 player since they can get T gear.
Whether its using professions or quests.


I think devs care about HC59 but idk how hard this is to implement.

No they don’t, see posts above.
Unfortunately, they don’t see high level HC as the desired design for turtle.

I wonder if it could be possible after reaching immortal 60, to again talk to the stranger and request to have the mortal/hc status put back onto the player. Idk how its all coded in, maybe add another quest with lv 60 req that just puts the hc status back on? Might conflict with the announcement system though...idk.

Both will be suitable changes. Imo making it so that u stay HC and need to disable it manually (like how u enabled it manually) is more fitting, but anyway they implement is fine. Just have it available at 60.

This is giving me very slight hope.

We might get to close this thread soon guys!

Do what you want.

I personally hate the HC because it takes away from the community, it splits it. Makes it harder to find people to level with, or do dungeons with but whatever man, I can't wait for your eventual HC message.

So much bile, hatred and spite … which HC have had you killed?

[Fridrikn]

So with the staff teasing 60 HC on the discord, is a timeline for when it will get implemented?

And what will it look like? There were many great suggestions in this thread about the implementation, but it's still up in the air.

We're so hyped about it, many that had quit are coming back for 60 HC.

[Nokidding]

No, like you said, it's only teasing right now.

I think it's a bit strange since in this thread, staff basically said there are no plans to have 60 HC, while at the same time staff on discord is teasing it.

Not sure what to think of it and if it's really realistic that 60 HC may come.

[Shamma]

Let the devs know we still want lvl 60 HC.

DMs are open for suggestions related to HC, please send whatever you'd like that is or isn't on the forums yet. Thread links are appreciated as well!

[Nokidding]

The dream is still alive.

Waitin with anticipation

Hardcore 60 has been confirmed as in works with an anticipated release of patch 1.16.6

Great news!

Sincerely hope they'll just add some levels to each boss defeated on HC challenge at 60. I mean raids. Starting with Blackrock Mountain from the Depths and up to the top.

– So, what's your HC level?
– I'm just chilling out on my level 4.
– Whaaa? AQ WHEN?!

They should add some kind of hardcore cosmetics that have a chance of dropping off end game dungeons while hardcore. Like maybe a mount, or a transmog. Hardcore dungeons at 60 will be an exciting experience for sure but it'd be fun to have some extra rewards or status symbols for hardcore achievements.

Not something I'd go for personally, but yeah. If people want to stay HC at 60, I'm all for them being able to get some special looks to show that they did extra bonus challenge content they didn't have to do. Shadowlands added some cloak slot items that give you wings or a halo, and while I'm not sold on the implementation, something similar feels like an appropriate cosmetic for non-immortal 60s. Or, like, as some kind of illusion you can apply, like how the Blazing Wings toy works. I mean, just look at those wings. Tell me that those - either as a buff or a vanity cape - wouldn't make a really cool reward for something like Hardcore Ragnaros.

I hadn't even thought of raids, I was mostly thinking of 5/10 man content, but yeah, I just feel like hardcore dungeons group experience at 60 would be incredible if there was enough motivated people to make it happen.

HC end game dungeons are happening daily in <Hard Chores>. A dedicated bunch of lvl 59 HC players. Just tonight we did a few UBRS runs in a row. Every dungeon is on farm.
