riot officers are probably the most toxic people on this server

idk what they tell the Riot plebs about what happens in the UN channel but it's legitimately embarrassing

also, the idea Riot "got good" and is now showing AM who's boss is an amazingly contrived narrative

imagine taking a guild who spent 2 years perfecting meta A - to the degree that they literally had to change the server rules - and expect that same guild to excel in meta B

not to mention, meta B fucking blows

all of you guys taking offense to the proposed rotation is laughable when you championed the RW and ST rotations

i bet we have way hotter dudes too, cmon post pics - you won't

Ummmm AM created Meta B lol c'mon man.

Aftermath has always been an opportunistic guild with respect to adapting to the current raiding meta; good or bad, have to give credit where it's due. It's worth noting that the primary reason AM ended up as the top guild for so long is due to their neurotic frapsquesting of Awakened and using those fraps to capitalize on compounding raid suspension times against AW; this ultimately led to the dissolution of AW into Tempest and Untz/Core. The longstanding domination of Aftermath is less owed to their skill and more due to the fact that their biggest competitor had all of their momentum zeroed out. Glad to see AM is on the way out (if true) and that the superior group of players is rightfully back on top again. Cheers to my old AW buds.

You're blaming Awakened's downfall on Aftermath because they had the nerve to catch you cheating?

my quick synopsis after being on the server for 10 months.

Big guild runs shit, gets everything. People think they are baddies.

Smaller guilds combine, compete against big baddie and win.

All remaining guilds now blame Big guild or New Big Guild for not getting mobs they want.

Smaller guilds have free shots at mid tier mobs. And fail to kill them uncontested.

Still blame big guilds for not being able to get kills.





At the end of the day, the people complaining can't handle the mobs they are bitching about anyway. They went from bitching about one bad guy to two. Even though from what I've seen, the new guild has made an attempt to include the smaller guilds in kills.

If you want big mobs, join a big guild. If you want casual, keep your mouth casual.

So having never played WoW in any real capacity, what’s the allure of a WoW Classic server?

I assume it’s nostalgia similar to P99 nostalgia, but what’s your sales pitch for jumping on to one of those servers if you never played WoW before?

No real threat of death, you run back to the corpse as a ghost that can't be attacked. The game is setup as a themepark instead of a sandbox. The leveling will take you around to new places and in those new places will be town NPC's with a question mark above their heads. You will get your quests from them as questing is the primary means of leveling, not grinding a camp or zone like EQ.

There is an active quest tracker to help you keep up, no one reads these as the quest area/mobs to kill will pop up in your map and lead you to them. What you need to do will be labeled on your active quest tracker, just complete what it wants and return to the quest NPC for rewards and some xp. You don't have to learn the lay of the land or check maps/spawns on a wiki site.

The game keeps you moving from place to place. All of your spells/ability can be on the hotbars at the same time. There is no spell book. There is no need for food/water except for boosts. All classes get a "gate" ability they can use every so often to return to town. Some of your dungeons are instanced so you will not have to share. You can also level up and raid without speaking to another soul so you can avoid the neckbeards as much as possible.

The artstyle is specifically WoW, this is when Blizzard changed up their style to be more pleasing. Its cartoonish but not offensive or grim. Later games such as Diablo 3 are said to have been improved due to this change. Wow is the more accessible MMO"RPG" and for many it was their first game of this type.
