Lol, half of them still died (not wipe, but they shat their pants for sure), if they practiced Ragnaros for years to finally get world first in official Classic server, they aren't even THAT good, nor is Classic hard.
Congrats to APES and mainly Cadet, the leader of many raids since Light's Hope private server, if you guys are reading this i can confirm the composition, potions used, talents spended because many of that private servers players are getting world first on raids, mainly because how hardcores they are and also i can confirm Classic is really easy than any other private server i played. Again Congrats to APES and Cadet and run for World First Onyxia!
No surprises here knowing apes.
To all the people that say classic was easy.... it was just different. Sure in 2019 its a different story and quite easy since most bosses only have 1-2 mechanics but back then the game actually introduced us to all these things. We didn't know $%^& about anything. At AQ/Naxx it went up to 3-4 mechanics and more complexe ones. We were learning the game. Addons evolved over time but they were not any huge help at the beginning either. There was no knowledge to be gained on the internet. We had to learn stuff by wiping. It was a journey... a very nice one. That why the nostalgia.Its just logical that with all the knowledge gained through out the last 15 years, going back to the beginnings would result in it feeling very very easy. Its like re-visiting first class at school after 15 years of education.
They did this because they enjoy the game and wanted to do the best they could. So many haters over nothing. If you don't enjoy something enough to put 100% effort in fine...just keep your mouth shut instead of criticizing others for something you can't or won't do. Sitting on a message board complaining about someone else's achievement just shows how little you actually achieve.
154 Days first time around. How many days was it this time? I can't remember.
It was a private server not legit Classic. Its not even remotely possible to have 40 level 60 characters raid ready and attuned in what? 4 days? Come on sheeple and think for once.
If u don't find fun in working to achieve a goal just for the fun of it then thats YOUR problem. Some people enjoy it & just because it might seem like a stressful situation to u doesn't mean it was stressful for them. I WANT to get to 60 as fast as possible, is it stressful/unhealthy or taking away the fun from the game? NOPE, because I want to do it because I love pushing myself to findout my limits. I do it at work, at school, & in sports. GO FIND SOMETHING U WANT TO ACHIEVE & PUSH YOURSELF TO DO IT INSTEAD OF LETTING YOURSELF OFF EASY. : )
I'm curious what this means for the longevity of the classic game, as people plow through the content at breakneck speeds eventually they'll get bored. I don't want to play classic, I like my blood elves, worgen, Draenei, Monks and demon hunters. That said I want to see things like Skill trees, reagents (warlock shards/ammo so forth) and even pet happiness. I want to see ROLE PLAY elements reintroduced to an MMO-RPG and yea I'd even accept the loss of LFR/LFG if it also meant an end to sharding.
good on you, now enjoy those contents all by yourselvesalso enjoy waiting 3 months of nothing, plenty of time to cry content from blissard
When I played my first Souls game, Dark Souls 3, it was hard and I finished the base game in about 70 hours.People have speedrun that game (all bosses+DLC, no glitches) in 1 hour and 24 minutes.This does not take away my experience, and it does not take away my experience if I play it again and it takes 40 hours.The game is still hard, immersive, and has a beautiful world.It's the same with this. Good job speedrunning MC, but for the commenters here saying "see Classic isn't hard", for most people, it is still quite hard. For people who have been playing Vanilla hardcore for many years via private servers, who know everything about the game, it is not.I won't deny that it's of course easier now, with the knowledge, databases like wowhead, etc., but people are still struggling with Deadmines, so I don't think this MC clear shows the state of the game, haha.
<APES> is a hardcore private server guild that's been around for a long time now. They literally had years of practice before Classic was announced and they've been working out the best leveling routes, class/race comps, etc since the announcement was made specifically so they could get world first. At this point, Rag is farm content for them. Personally, I'm just happy it wasn't Method. Their egos needed be knocked down a few pegs.
We said it for 13 years. With every "This game was hardest in Classic!", we said "To 2004 players, sure", and they'd go "loOl Retail plebs couldn't handle it if released today!11" in response.Repeat ad nauseam. Am glad that Classic came out and finally, FINALLY, we can put that ever running, horribly beaten horse to rest proper. Sure, there are already those now saying "But the OTHER raids tho, Naxx will take moooonths!"... Let them hang on to that hope for just a while longer I guess.
That "first kill" seems a little bit too fishy.- less than 40 man having level 60, huge part being mid 30-40- farming rep for the runes to actually summon ragnaros- green gear and 1st try?- all in about 4-5 days?i don't think that's legit.even if so, what the f+++ is this? Any% Speedrun with Glitches?
