Default Nostalrius/Elysium

Anyone checking out the vanilla wow servers tomorrow? After coming back to P1999 I've been having so much fun, and the community is amazing. I actually really like the slow play of EQ. I only heard about the Nostalrius wow server when Blizzard sent them a C&D letter. Now after several months, they gave their game to Elysium who will be bringing it back. They will also be releasing a fresh server in January some time. I was pretty excited to hear they were coming back, since I never got to try them. However, in the search to find a decent game I stumbled across my old P1999 account, and am having a blast... decisions decisions.

Just play WoW if you want to play WoW. The live version is infinitely better than vanilla. The new artifact system is pretty cool

I think TESO might even stack bundles on vanilla WoW.

But vanilla WoW world PvP griefing, etc is pretty good.

I can safely and accurately say that Legion is better than vanilla is any/every possible way. Please tell me 1 thing vanilla has that Legion doesn't (besides misplaced nostalgia). I'll even start

1) Transmog farming is fun
2) PvP is in a good place with balancing
3) World pvp is at an all time high/centralized due to World Questing. 10000x better than Tarrin Mill/South Shore
4) New raids are pretty gud
5) Quality of Life changes over the last 15 years are excellent
6) 95% of the player base is unable to clear current Mythic content (no face roll)
7) There are 4 raid difficulty levels so you can be as neckbeardy or casual as you choose. Mythic raiding is pretty ridiculous, need good guild to progress
8) NEW content is still being produced at an incredible rate - First real raid tier (Nighthold) drops mid Jan.
9) Addition of Demon Hunters and Death Knights
10) Artifact weapons!!!!

Why do you even play P99 then? You could say all the same shit about 'improvements' on EQLive. Got to be one of the back asswards posts I've seen in a long time on these forums.

I've tried Legion. It sucks. It's an extremely polished turd, but it's still a turd.

So your argument is if you love classic of one thing, you must also love classic of another? The difference between EQ live and P99 is not the same as classic WoW and Legion. This is only my opinion and you are welcome to have a differing opinion.

counter arguments as to why vanilla is better:

1) no transmog, the gear you wear is what you EARNED in current content.
2) PvP has vanilla rank system and none of that normalized stat bs in legion
3) wpvp (lol)
4) og 40man raids, legion is just rehashed garbage "dont stand in X"
5) QoL changes?? aka dumbing down the game. outside of healers does anyone have more then 4 buttons?
6) Mythic is just artificial difficulty, mob has more hp and does more dmg.. WOOOOWWWW
7) Raids should be for those willing to put in the time, not any neckbeard who can hit the LFR button (see BDA's move to phinny)
8) "NEW" content term used loosely, same rehashed shit told badly and heavily influenced by what is/was currently popular (broken shore = a game of thrones episode)
9) no DK's and emohunters
10) no artifact weapons

If any P99'ers on the Nost PvE server are looking for a casual, mature, leveling guild, look for <Misericordia>. Tharyn, Jaseve, Vestige can invite - just tell them you saw my post.
