As someone who loved World of Warcraft from the beginning, what I really wanted was to see the stuff that was cut, like the Emerald Dream. Azuregos (and the other 3 dragons) were supposed to be an "Attunement" of sorts for the Emerald dream which was supposed to continue the story threads began in the Wailing Caverns. Obviously we eventually got an end to that storyline in Cataclysm but I for one didn't like where they went with it. I wanted to see the Dream. There's also a portal in the Tanaris dessert that leads to Uldum, or rather that would have led to Uldum. I know Uldum was eventually added, but it was originally intended to be a vanilla raid, and it was supposed to Continue the story or Ulduman. This is the kinda stuff I always wanted. Many of the dungeons had stories if you bothered to do the quests and many of them left threads hanging which were meant to be continued, either in later quests, dungeons or raids. Many of these plans were dropped as the plan changed, and were eventually re-imagined in a new expansion, but the way it was done was very unsatisfying to me. The vanilla quests sotries were not continued much less concluded, I do not like loose ends, or dropped storylines. A big part of why I loved World of Warcraft was because there were so many stories if you took the time to do the quests, things in one zone or one dungeon that were part of something bigger, or that would have led to something bigger. I am aware that the realities of game development mean that a lot of that stuff never gets finished, but I view classic "plus" as the perfect opportunity to go back and finish those stories. I don't want Blizzard to try and fit it into the wow that exists today... I want Blizzard to go back and look at the threads left hanging and finish those ideas, or at least continue them and I want them to see where that goes, a whole new WOW, new expansions, is that the slightest bit realistic, no of course not, but I loved the stories of Vanilla WOW, I want to go back and see where those original idea's could have taken us.

It's interesting that you mention the vertical progression. What if classic plus was not so vertical ? What if there were multiple raids/content sources that were of equivalent levels in parallel. What if the new content sitted next to old one in terms of power level so you essentially have more content but it doesn't get obsolete right away because of old content or the opposite. Also content can take many form they could reshape drastically the game just by adding new mechanics to the game, new spells to classes and so on while keeping the spirit of classic.

What you need to do is to create new loot that doesn't increase your ilvl above that of the existing vanilla content. In Classic, the solution is pretty easy -> offer gear for meme specs. Take the example of Phase 1: -Have boots, belt, legs and wrists not drop from MC. To make sure that bosses still have decent loot tables, we will now have a set for every spec. Paladins for example will have a prot, ret and holy (lawbringer) Tier 1 sets. Goal here is to make sure that MC still has enough loot to be rewarding, while also putting some of the loot in other content. At this point you can be creative. -Have boots be an exalted reputation reward from a new faction (Wildhammer Dwarves ?) -Have the belt drop from a new level 60 dungeon, alongside some other blue items that could be well itemised for a few classes (Uldum ?) -Have the wrists be a craft from a new profession recipe that you get through a big questline (could even have that questline start via an MC drop) -etc. You get the point - there are tons of ways to add new content without having you reach ilvl 7000 within 3 patches. Then if you add some vanity dungeons/reputations with vanity items, a mount, a pet, etc. you can easily have quality side content

New content would fit the same place they've always put "stuff we dont know what to do with." Half-Tiers. I know this comment is a bit jumbled and not explaining everything well but basically if you're going to "plus" the game, you're gonna have to subtract a lot of the things weighing it down simultaneously. Class and item balance would solve a ton of it as having more classes using more gear means everyone gets geared out faster instead of "plate or its useless," creating new versions of old items but better in each tier, catchup smaller raids that release about 2-3 months after the "main" tier that also offer various challenge modes to challenge raiders, making farm raids less prevalent etc. Think of it this way: When you renovate a historical property, its not as simple as building it brand new. You have to take care to make it around the existing framework but improve it at the same time. If you do it right, you get a blend of the modern and traditional that makes people happier with it than either aspect would on their own. It's clear that doing it wouldn't be easy- you do have to tear down a significant amount before you can put things in its place- but if they do it right you can replace things surgically to change only that which needs changing or would benefit the end user instead of with a mass stripping down to the skeleton. If they do this and patch up the holes that have existed for ages, and shore up the weakest areas that were there from day one they have a wellspring of content, a solid frame built on a flawless foundation to constantly rebuild around to bring customers back for years to that comfortable place they've always called home, but with better amenities and more modern comforts than the original owners ever knew.

It's almost like a pserver Vanilla+ exists (new content, new races, class updates, new dungeons, new raid, etc), and it's constantly growing. Classic NEEDS to be a living mmorpg. The style changed over the years, which is why players returned to vanilla/Classic. Players want the style back, but want it to be a living, developing game under that style. The #NOCHANGES crowd was always wrong, I said it before Classic launched, and I say it here because I'm right. Classic, derived from vanilla pservers, was at it's core a movement toward an older school mmorpg. Meta players are detrimental to any game's vision. Meta players play the current meta and hate change, which is the antithesis to developing a living, breathing world. Designers need to take back their own vision, but I feel Blizzard lacks such vision. They only put out polls, which lowers any game to it's lowest common denominator. Players will direct any game into oblivion if you let them, and this is what happened to Wow. Vanilla+ keeps growing because it continuously adds more horizontal expansion outside of the broken raid tier structure. You don't need anything better than Naxx, because most raid tiers already do not provide gear sets for many offspecs already. More professions, more recipes per profession, and many more leveling paths with more rep options provide a lively leveling experience.

Imagine all of the sudden underdog specs become viable (Rets, Protpalas, Boomies, SPriests, Arcane Mages). Would you relive Classic experioence as a spec you love instead of the spec that is viable? Theorycrafters go BRRRRRRRR! 2. Itemization rebalance: all of the BiS and pre-BiS loot tables are irrelevant. Guide creators and theorycrafters go BRRRRRRR!!! 3. New quests, some zones' revamp (like Azshara, Theramore, Deadwind Passs), perhaps more questlines 4. Crafting revamp with more useful professions, not just Engi and Alchemy, completely different items redistribution and requirements. 5. Dungeons and raids reblance to accomodate to increased viable specs 6. Honor/Ranking system rebalance to make PvP items more in line with current tier (not AQ40-level during MC phase) and ranking itself less painful Just imagine how lovely the game becomes when youi finally add all these variables to a seemingly solved equation.

I think Classic+ would ultimately fail because there are so many ideas about what it should be that you wouldn't be able to please everybody. For instance, I can deal with the leveling speed of Classic, but I'd never want to go back to half the spec not being raid viable and only warriors having an interesting rotation. I'm going to guess that PvPers don't want to go back to the days when it was rouges, frost mages, then everybody else way behind. Also, I think Vanilla just came out at the right time, and timing is something that can't really be recreated. It came out after several other MMOs, so the team was able to look at those and see what worked and what didn't. Also, everybody had heard of EverQuest, but a lot of people were scared off by the time requirements. Vanilla was able to position itself as the casual alternative to the other MMOs of the time. So it ended up attracting a lot of people who never played MMOs. All that said, this is a different time. A level of commitment that would have been considered casual back in 2004 is considered no life in 2023. A lot of the old players who might even want to come back won't be able to put in time due to adult commitments, and a lot teens and young adults don't want to have to play one game 10+ hours a week to keep up with everyone else. While I personally would really like a Classic+, if it were my job on the line, I probably wouldn't risk it.

Blizzard needs to develop things a little more instead of just releasing something old. I would love to see a few changes on: - Talents - DG/Raid loot (drop more items and to make progress faster) - Create new items: with the database they have, they can check items there were being used by so many players. Check the classes that are doing this and create new items that can be BIS for some classes at the same time as maintaining the item BIS for others. This would make gear distribution better, thus not needing to re-run a bunch of raids weekly. - New Raid contents could be fit in between raids. You said: 12 months for new content? Why not add a raid in between. We all know much of the MC loot isn't necessarily good, however having a new raid between MC and BWL, making some new items very similar to the ones on MC. It will make the guilds raid the old content to equip some players and also raid the new raid. Another good example is a raid between AQ40 and Naxx. The jump of stats on Naxx gear is too high and unbalanced, a new raid content in there would be really interesting making the gear gap smaller. - New raid after Naxx would be awesome, a really hard raid that requires players to push their gear's limit to be able to progress. I honestly would love this content to be released with Naxx as well, allowing players to go either way. Adding the old concept of "dps check" and "heal Check" that we haven't seen in a while, making the progress to stop unless your raid is pretty well equipped. - One thing that is really important: Alliance and Horde MUST be able to play with Shamans and Paladins. I can't stress how much this is needed. - Server wise we all know servers have a tendency to become a mega server and something must be done regarding this. I am not a specialist on this area, however it would be nice to create incentives. Something that comes on top of my mind is possiblity of additional loot, rep and xp bonus when there is a gap higher than 10%, bonus only aplicable to the one nation with lowest number on current raid progress number.

I agree with the problems you pointed out, that's why I think classic + would have to be done differently than just adding raid tiers or whatever. You would want to make add heroic mode for the leveling dungeons, so they're meaningful at 60. Doesn't have to be all 5 mans heroic available at the same time, could be a rotating schedule or something. I don't think there needs to be much big "new" content, as much as shuffled content. Change the itemizations up all over the place, change up the tier set bonuses, mess with boss placement, boss health and abilities (not just in raids, but 5 mans too). Maybe add sections to raids and dungeons, add rare spawns with new abilities. You could even add 5 man dungeons, considering there is a heroic mode at 60. Basically, add a bunch of small things all over the place, and shuffle the details around (including class balance) and you'll have a fun, fresh experience.

Phase one of classic plus: level cap set at 20, everyone runs RFC/DM for loot, the raids are WC/SFK/BFD, scale them up to 10 players, remove level requirements on BoP loot, or change it to proper level cap. Repeat for level 35. Stocks/Gnomer/RFK/SMGY as dungeons. SM/RFD as 10man raids. Repeat for level 45. Ulda/ZF as dungeons. Mara/SunkenTemp as 10man raids. Repeat for level 50. BRD as main dungeon, possibly break it up, possibly have new content/bosses. LBRS/UBRS as 10man raids. Repeat for level 55. Dire Maul, Scholo, Strath can all be 10man raids because of only 5 levels since the last gate. Reaching level 60 unlocks chronoboon. We play phases 1-6 with chronoboon. No new content needs to be added. Just gate it by level, and force everyone to play the content that is already there. Right now the vast majority of classic era gamers boost their character 90% of the way to level 60, gamers want new content in that old style, but don't even play all the old style content currently available. Scale old content that they don't even play.

You just take a page from retail and even just the next couple of expansions and add in heroic modes for everything, this lets them make the old raids harder, add new mechanics and even makes it so all dungeons have a reason to be ran at max level. Also doesn’t take much effort to develop as it’s mostly just adding more HP/damage and maybe an extra ability or two.

I haven't played WoW Classic since 2021, but here are some ideas I think classic+ may need to consider. 1: Completely rebuild the classes and archetypes so that any class or specialization can offer something to the raid/party, or at least give players more options in how they want to play. 2: Focus less on large raids and add more smaller scale options. Classic has four 40 player raids, two 20 player raids, and one 10 player raid. Granted my memory is a little fuzzy on exact numbers. 3: Perhaps instead of having bosses drop gear change it to materials that you turn in to a craftsman NPC to make an item, or if you have the right profession you can make it yourself.

I don't understand how they can't just nerf warrior skills and output but say 10-15%, keep the maximum dot counter on bosses from the start, and remove spell batching. Once that balances its self out, and maybe even more nerf--start adding in 'new content' such as the scarlet crusade raid, kara raid etc. The only down side I see will be the new round of bots/RMT throughout another fresh launch. Things such as lotus spawn times and adding chrono gadget to save world buffs from the start will also help with the 'griefing' issue on PvP servers. Which will make world PvP a thing again because there's no 'real' penalty to dying...Just purely having fun trying to capture a Zone for your faction. I have plenty more to rant about, but I imagine most of you who read this far get the gist.

They could implement two things: 1) new dungeons during leveling, just regular new stuff to explore not a big deal. And new endgame dungeons dropping comparatively the same gear as raids, but make them mega hard and on a weekly lockout. 2) more item turn-ins. Make raids/dungeons drop pieces of “loot” which you need to farm up and create top tier gear which you can later upgrade with even more materials dropped by the new dungeons and already existing raids. Yes this would incentivize the tryhards to farm everything every week, but it could just give smaller groups of friends something to do besides 40man raids. Or you could upgrade current raid items with new dungeon specific enchants obtainable via material turn ins and not the professions, similar to ZG enchants. Or the new dungeons could drop pvp gear comparable to the blue set which could sort of level the playing field at the beginning of pvp? Idk But new content along the way to level60 is a super neat idea I would totally do it, especially in the 40-50 bracket.

What would be cool is if they did a Classic + according to the original design document for WoW. Where the dungeons, raids, classes and abilities that were scrapped from Classic and put into TBC / Wrath were actually in classic. I think that would be a really good reason for people to play classic +. Also. People that think that Classic+ would cost more than $0 to develop has to consider that WoW Classic, TBC Classic and Wrath Classic also cost more than $0 to develop. They had to put classic zones, abilities, gear, quests, revert itemization and stats to how it was all on top of the current engine. It was not cheap or easy to do it. Development teams cost money, regardless if they work on current, previous or no content at all.

imo to make Classic+ work you'd have to: 1. Re-do itemization, especially around class-specific gear and spec-specific sets. Also, reduce the massive increase in power in higher tiers. 2. Tweak class balance(carefully) esp. underused specs. For example re-balance things like +weapon skills for warrior hit chance and make +skills actually increase bow/gun damage in PvE. 3. Move existing 60+ raids and dungeons down to become lower level, for example MC could become a level 50, 10-man dungeon and Strat could be ~lvl 40. This would give a new feeling levelling experience. 4. Create new end-game raids with new gear to chase after such as Timbermaw Hold and Emerald Dream, release as part of normal content cycle.

First of all, we all damn well know how ActiBlizz works these days, sadly, so even a slightest idea of actual Vanilla+ is just a dream. But hey... so was WoW when it was first put on a whiteboard. A dream which turned into a legendary eperience and altered gaming history in a massive way, while making money for ActiBlizz. So it's not impossible if AB is just willing to invest into it for 2 years in order to cash out big time in the next 5 afterwards. New content and experience is easily done - as some said, look at Turtle WoW. You can literaly sit for 5 minutes and come up with something like this: - New Dungeons from 10 to 60, depending on zone. Plenty of options - Azshara temple, Furbies "Capital" behind the gate Northern Azshara, demon-themed dungeon in Felwood's Jaedenar dungeons, Winterspring elemental/undead/demon themed dungeon in any of the relevant areas in the Mid-South, Silithid dungeon in Tanaris/Ungoro as a full-out prequel to AQ opening event, etc. the list goes on. - Heroic mode for Dungeons (as done at 70 in Outland) - same pattern, viable Epic items from last bosses, literaly tons of new gear to play with so gearing is a fun, new and less repetitive thing to do, so You don't spam UBRS for 200 times again just to get the swords/trinket etc. More dungeons = more viable options for gear per spec = more places to visit/run. - Update of Class' Talents and rework of "gimped" specs = makes alts even more wanted and fun to play, gearing those specs would be new thing to do, more reasons to have new dunegons from 10 to 60 + the Heroic mode of them. - Add new bosses to Molten Core and AQ40 - easily done, just open new corridors and boom, new content, add gear supporting the "newly viable" specs. - New 20-man raids to fill in time between Main raid-days - focus on social aspect, mounts, pets, generaly stuff you can run while getting drunk with your friends, bringing back the experience the real "old-timers" cherrish, not the gear hunt, but the whacky AQ20s and ZGs. - New World bosses and Time-relevant events (like Elemental Invasion) - supports both competitionand gives even semi-casual players a new experience across the world to join a pug or semi-guild run to down them. Essentially will push more ppl into joining an active guild just to do these and 20-man raids for more community content. - New Tier 0.5 (or similar thing) to support the additional specs and just giving out new interesting bonuses, so that ppl can mix Tier gear with a small 3-set bonus from dungeon epics. Make it a Heroic-dungeon thing maybe (and progressive). - Make Heroic dungeons and old raids drop a specific currency, which you will be able to upgrade gear from the previous content (Raid/HC dungeons) to a higher quality to better align with higher tiers, aking up for more gearing options per spec. (ex.: supporting AoE threat for tanks, or AoE dmg for Locks, Mages, Boomkins, etc.) - New cap for professions - new craftables, more potent alchemy and enchanting paterns to cover for the new PvE content in the game. - Rework of Gathering professions - new nodes, additional drops, Black lotuses and Arcane crystals (or even higher item of such type) dropping by random from high-level nodes. - Making Gathering highly accessible so players can go out and efficiently farm stuff for themselves or for the guild, to support community aspect. I deeply miss the farming nights while boozing over Ventrilo and roaming Winterspring or EPL as a party of 3-4. - Make nodes "pickable" by anyone withing 30 seconds from initial pick - adding onto above point, it would be awesome to just roam high-lvl zones farming with guldies for the needs of the guild itself, supporting guild crafters in their needs. We really REALLY need community aspect back, not just more efficient ZUG-ZUG tactics and raid-logging. I'm a hardcore player, but damn, F that stuff. It's boring... Game needs more depth. Game needs more community stuff! - Add new sub-locations in zones, systems of caves, etc. for End-game farming sand new quests, that'a very small change to the existing content that adds whole new experience almost for free. - list goes on... So yeh, we can all hope that one day... the game will become something "Plus" and more and will start a different path that will give players fun for more then just a set period of time between expansions, or Seasons (12 month cycle is really effin small for a MMO game, tbh).

Classic+ just needs to follow the same model as old school RuneScape and they’re golden. 1) small, dedicated, passionate dev team 2) start from where the game was at its peak (debatable, but general consensus can be roughly selected) 3) add new content in an “alternate timeline” style. Maintain the feel and aesthetic of classic wow, but select from the best additions from retail. Osrs does this by taking the best content/aspects from rs3 and reskinning/remaking them with that old school feel/principles… this allows them to skip a lot of the development cycle for new content and accomplish more with fewer resources 4) focus on content replay-ability.. this allows you to not have to rush out updates and be more selective in what you make as players don’t rush through content and then crave more. Things like challenge modes for raids, speed running rewards, hardcore and Ironman modes, etc. less focus solely on gear progression and more focus on things like status symbols, cosmetics, achievements, account building. Can also give some type of reward cycle for alt building. These all lengthen the lifespan of content without being too grindy for no reason. 5) rely extensively on community feedback, either a poll system or veto process allows devs to make decisions while maintaining a finger on the players pulse 6) profit

Could add world bosses that drop rank 14 gear, when the boss spawns in there could be a giant announcement to both horde and alliance, when you attack the boss, it auto flags you for PVP. Could add low level raids that drop BIS gear for the twinking bracket / create low level gearsets that have bonuses for each piece acquired. In hardcore there are some that are doing lower-level dungeons with 10 players however they are extremely below level requirement. Would create a fair chance for anyone who wants to get into twinking to get best gear, could add the NPC to turn off XP. Would create more competition in lower level PVP brackets... Could add another 40 vs 40 PVP zone similar to AV, except you work on summoning a world boss and killing it before the other team to get PVP loot. They could just include all expansions into classic + and adjust the level required to run them / tweaking the gear and also changing the boss fights / adding bosses. Bosses could even have RNG with how they react to you, so you wouldn't know how the fight will play out, each encounter type will drop different armor. Really looking forward to seeing Classic + become a thing, however hope they do it justice and give us a magical place to explore.

I would personally like to see two main things things; revive the old world, and embrace some of the new world. I'd love a classic friendly version of archaeology that expands on the lore. I'd love some of the new fishing mechanics and bits and bobs and collectibles. I'd love more collectibles in general. I'd love to see the old world brought to life, flesh out zones all the way to the coast lines, populate the mountains, add more places to explore, add more lore and quests so when we level alts there's NEW stuff to do. We could get goblins and worgen. We could get pandas and MoP. We could get all sorts of things while keeping the spirit of classic WoW intact, which to me means complex talents with many viable options, I'd love to see more hybrid builds be competitive raid dps. However I want those specs to have flavor, style, substance, when every caster class feels relatively the same it stinks. I'd love to see larger loot tables, maybe more raid bosses overall, more amounts of loot dropping so a 40 man raid can feel properly satiated with their lust for epics. I want the old school play style with new school zones and raids, what makes classic great is that classes have genuine substance, a unique feeling. Cataclysm, well sort of wotlk, was the beginning of the end of that unique feeling and flavor. I'd love to throw money at blizzard and play WoW casually, however Blizzard never learns a lesson about what people want vs what is making them money. They always listen to the money which inevitably leads them off a cliff, players have been screaming at them for YEARS about what we want, and it never materializes.

The problem with adding a new zone to classic is how the current zones are designed and tie with each other via quests, lore and progression. It would be very hard to make the zone feel like it was part of the world before the update so if you just put it in the game with tbc like quest hubs, nothing unique to go there for its gonna feel very out of place, it would probably be the same not only with zones but with everything new you add the to the game. Also replay ability of new raids wouldn't be a problem in my opinion, just make it like a catch up raid for new character like ZG or AQ20 or put it somewhere in between big raids in terms of power (just don't go past naxx cause it would make the gap between fresh 60 too big). The thing with classic is that its very replay able, cause each class plays the game very differently and in my opinion is the big reason why people still keep playing it to this day. Good video as always, WillE. Have a nice day.

Once you got max level and gear the game would just end, and you could appreciate your 50 dollar investment. But noooo, people just can't comprehend when a game is over. Our biggest sin as games it that we want replayability. Replayability, let that sink in for a while. The concept of replayability is what is killing the game industry. It's what's turning the mystery of a game into a scripted gameplay, and into a youtube video. All magic gets lost in replayability....

There's something that you are missing, but you touched on it at the very end Willie. "Rethinking the formula that makes people actually like classic in the first place." It's not just the social aspect, or the getting stronger aspect. People do things based on what they need. Classic+ is not a chore. It's for experienced players to be able to play the game in a new way, so it could be that we just get lvl 60s and treat the gear as the lvling. What is the best part of wow? It's not leveling to 60. It's not getting the last piece of BiS. It's getting another piece of gear. Theory crafting is pretty much dead, because of how stats work in later expansions which is the only thing "vanilla" about it is the stat template. There's hit, weapon skills, resistance, high stam gear, ect. The game is only at vanilla stats to make it simple and easy for everyone. 1 stam = 10 hp, 1 stg = 2 atk pwr, 20 agil = 1 crit and so on. So you can look at a piece of gear and instantly know if it's good for your Set A, Set B.. Classic plus is not built on the idea of getting stronger. It's built on the idea of new ways to play the class, like with meme specs. This means that blizzard use all of the world's assets. Maybe instead of getting vanilla - wrath raids first, we get Cata raids first so the cata fans can also get their itch. The system is built on the legion client, so to say that things are hard to "cross over" is just nonsense, I'm sorry lol. The issue at blizzard spending is not content, it's advertisement. They already have a legacy, and for many many years were trying to reach out to investors instead of more players. So the moment you stop seeing adds for an expansion, or a release of their titles is the moment you will start to see some actual improvement on the game. Also to compare Classic+ to anything on retail is just a horrendous misunderstanding of what classic+ needs to be, but I understand it's hard to really understand after so many years of being on a leveling based system. Classic+ is more of a sandbox to play in rather then something you need to do for any particular reason. People want to craft things. They want to be imaginative, but with the current set ups everything is either extremely one sided or figured out to begin with. The best example of people wanting to theory craft was vanilla, which is why it is mentioned so much but it is by no means supposed to be vanilla 2.0. Paladins trying to figure out how to one pull SM Arms/Cath. Using lvl a lvl 45 epic axe for more light procs. Paladins still in wotlk try to do preg pali. I'm working with my experience as a warrior, paladin, shaman, and some warlock in vanilla/tbc/wrath. So I don't know the answer to every class, or know all the talent changes required to pull something off that could feel different. But one example for rogue would be spell power rogues, for poisons, like on a private server I heard about before. Another could be paladins get dual wielding, or maybe just more of the spells like exo on all targets or crusader strike. Warriors can charge in combat. Mages get iceblock at 30 all specs. Idk just random ideas that could allow people to try new specs out. Maybe allow warriors to try the fabled 2H+shield tanking. Or shamans finally get a viable tanking spec. All of the content can be recycled. That's what makes it easy. It doesn't matter if it's AQ, nighthold, siege of orgrimmar, what ever. We just need somewhere to get gear for other specs. A way to really get things started is basically bring back the old school version of blizzard. Custom World of Warcraft lobbies. Want a guild hall? Build one. Want an RP retreat? Here's the tools to design it. Monetize private servers. They don't need to be entire worlds, they can be sections that can be changed, and prices can be determined on how big the land is to pay for that server. Let people design new BGs, new modes, new specs, but all on what we know and love. The talent tree system, and the range of craftability of the vanilla system. With crushing blows, and glancing blows, and weapon skills, items that have +dmg that have spell coefficients, life steal +coefficients, all of it. If a server has a good idea, then we can bring it into the core classic+ game. It's what fortnite did, and it spawned what blizzard originally had. A massive creator platform that progress the game as a whole with the ideas of the fans.

One of the only things that I basically begged to be added was the npc who turns your xp off. If people didn’t have to worry about that, I truly believe that easily 66% of the classic players would make a twink with a good chunk of them actually finishing them and pvping.

I think classic+ should encompass all 3 of versions of classic we had. Games like FF14 are able to keep old content relevant, blizz should at least attempt something similar with the breadth of classic content.

One feature that I think HAS to be developed and included into Classic at some point is an option for NPC allies for dungeons. I played Classic but was way behind and missed the hype train, and I just could not find other players willing to run early dungeons with me unless I wanted to either pay them or rope together irl friends (and I'm poor and friendless so neither of those were options). FFXIV does this really well. You can run dungeons with NPC's if you don't wanna deal with other people or can't get a group together, but the NPC's do less damage so the dungeons takes longer, so there's still an incentive to playing with other people (unless you count for people dying or leaving and needing, but ymmv with these things as always). I would absolutely advocate for an NPC allies system to be included in a Classic+ just so that I can play the damned content. Hell, I'd even be happy with them including the bodyguard system from Legion and letting you hire NPC's (maybe for a gold fee in major cities) to follow you around in the open world. It'd make levelling some of the classes like warrior way better.

The problem with Classic+ with the formula of wow is how will power progression translate? If we are stuck in classic, tbc, or wrath, would they just add new raids with a higher gear score? If so, the ladder progression for anyone coming in late would need to run alllllll the older content in order get to the new stuff, unless they introduce catch up raids and dungeons which then runs into the current issue of no one running older content. Something they could do is introduce heroic versions of all the classic dungeons and raids, bringing up some lower level pieces, for example the Ravager but tuned for level 60 heroics. A system like that could keep all content alive longer with more replay ability. While all this is going on, it could give the devs more time to decide what to do for content. As WillE stated in the video, if blizz sticks with Vanilla wow, they could finalize the original plans that they had for Outlands or Hyjal being one new zone. Something else I would love to see is although theres still a lot of work with making older content playable again, the story and content is practically finished. Maybe introduce lore changes that they've retconned over the years, or use the extra time make the stories only from books or comics into playable questlines. From an OSRS approach, I think having the community vote for features to come to classic, such as transmog, the barber, arenas, player/guild housing, professions, could keep the game feeling new while still keeping that classic feel. Then for newer content, people can also vote on which new zones are added, dungeons, raids, etc.

There is a big reason to do viscidious in AQ 40 in wotlk, scarab brooch baby. Can't believe people sleeping on that. During wotlk back in the day a few top guilds to down heroic lich king had a resto shaman with that lvl 60 trinket.

New content = Phase 7 on. Grim Batol = Raid, Karazhan Crypts = Raid, Hyjal zone portal = Raid. Use Hyjal as a zone, redo the map to open the zone northwest of EPL, open the zone east of wetlands/loch modan. you can introduce new battlegrounds, introduce heroic versions of dungeons and raids and tune them to be that much more difficult.

Phase 1 MC Onyxia Timbermaw Hold (20 man) Phase 2 BWL ZG Karazhan Crypts (10 man) Phase 3 AQ40 AQ20 Un'Goro Caverns (40 man) Phase 4 Naxxramas Bastion of the Scarlet Crusade (20 man) Phase 5 Scarlet Citadel (40 man) Round the stats up of all items to not be worthless trash. Change some classes to be more like their TBC versions to be viable. Add tons of flavor text. Fill in the gaps with hints for unsolved lore questions. Add a bit more AOE leniency for tanks. Take the very best (not overpowered or lazy) aspects of vanilla, TBC, and wotlk and merge them. Allow the Corrupted Ashbringer to be cleansed in Scarlet Citadel with a massive questline starting in Naxxramas similar to Scarab Lord questline, but much grander.

You need to think outside the box here; the new content does not need to include new gear, since itemization is next to impossible post Naxx while retaining the level cap. What if the new content added new skills or new classes as a reward though? That would be an entirely new story.

A fresh server starting from vanilla would be awesome. To freshen up the 1-60 grind they could simply change some of the bosses up and add different loot options without needing to make a full new dungeon. Maybe add the quests that improve the leveling in tbc and add the sped up exp from som. People aren't going to run mc/bwl/aq40/naxx every week, they didn't do that in vanilla classic and they didn't run every single raid in tbc every week. People just pug the earlier raids if they still want loot from those. No-one is forced to run every single raid every week. Are you still running naxx 25s alongside ulduar with your guild?

For Vanilla and TBC put the qol changes from wrath like 1.5s mount and 1 click mines (maaaaaaybe q bgs from anywhere). Add hard modes to every dungeon; but it doesn't give unique loot, just more, or a higher drop chance at the best stuff in there. Do a blanket change for hard modes to give variety of actual difficulty to dungeons. Some dungeons' hard modes will actually be borderline impossible to do at the appropriate level, and others most pugs will probably prefer to run it that way: Like triple hp/double dmg or twice the mechanics and attach vanity items or titles to them given that they are done within the appropriate level bracket. Or do achievements for that. Find out which dungeons turn out to be the hardest on HM and put the "best" achievements on those. Make achievements account-wide. Lower subscription price and add a cash shop that only sells vanity stuff (BUT no new mounts introduced to the xpac that they didn't exist in; just access to other faction ones). Then run it back every 3-6 years. When this version of wrath ends drop only two servers of each - classic/tbc/wrath "pvp focused" server. Enable transmog for all of them. Make one version of the servers with very few changes. Fix bugs but no balance changes or re-working items. Final, polished-state 1.12/2.4.3/3.4.1 status, but with transmog. Then, for the other version, make balance/class/game changes how you see fit, add new qol, new mounts, boss difficulty challenges etc. For those three versions of servers you can import any character you've played (granted it 'fits' in the xpac) during the three expansions that are getting cycled over and over. For those "PvP" servers, make insta-max characters with boosted-like gear available to create and gold not even a thing, gatekeep gear behind solo-achieveable pve/pvp achievements over time, but gatekeep super-bis a little bit harder; only so much as to make a player put in time for it. So like 20k HKs and you get access to GM weapons type thing, but the next best thing is not very hard to get, like 1k hks. Run endless arena seasons and feature tournaments at times. Tournaments could come around that have silly rules but also give a silly pet to the winners. Only ever sell/reward with vanity items/titles/achievments. The populations will drop over time but the game would be played pretty much until the heat death of the universe.

Step 1: Fix and balance the classic classes. We are going new, so be new. Fix classic pallys. Give Druids ooc rez. Tons of stuff to do just on the character side of things. Take what you have learned from xpacs and fix the old stuff. Step 2: Fix gear. Just because you have the same dungeons, doesn't mean it has to drop the same gear. Let paladins and druids tank and dps and provide the gear to allow this to happen. Fits in perfectly with step 1. Add +hit to gear or reduce needed +hit so it isn't terrible to actually get MC and some BWL gear. Step 3: Give some great QoL things. Give classic transmog. Once again, you aren't running classic, you are running classic+ Step 4: Fill in the gaps. The first two alliance instances in Kalimdor are BFD and then ZF (you can argue WC but that instance was not made for alliance). That is a massive gap. Fill it in with another instance for alliance to do. Pop in some cloth and mail gear. Step 5: New professions. Nothing wrong with adding inscription or jewelcrafting or survival etc. Just give it a role to play and recipe drops. Step 6: New zones: Nothing says you can't drop a new island out in the middle of nowhere and there are several unused zoned on the classic map that could be used. Not only that, but there are just some outright terrible zones that could do with some help like Barrens and Azshara. Fill it in! Make changes. Make it alive! And what about that promised player housing that was coming soon? Step 7: New endgame instances. Hyjal, Stormwind Prision, Azshara Furbogs, Karazhan, all of these have places built into the existing world where new dungeons can be placed. And nothing says you can't add more. Make them level 30 or 40 or 50+. Hell make them level 60. There are no rules. You don't have to play the same game. Step 8: New races. Nothing is stopping anyone from dropping in the worgen or goblins or some as of yet unknown race. Pop em in. Step 9: New quests. Some levels were really hard to power through in classic and can be beefed up with more questing in more places and maybe even new zones. No issue, no reason not to. Step 10: Nothing stops new updates. Remember, this isn't classic you are talking about. It is classic+ which means same base, new skin. You can and should change a lot. There were a lot of warts on classic. This would be the chance to fix a lot of them. And this isn't even addressing the fact it gives a chance to add differing modes into the game. The problem is, WillE, you seem to think classic+ is just classic with more content. At least that is the vibe I got. It can be that, but that isn't what it has to be. In fact, I would say that would be a waste of time if that was all it was. This would be classic as crafted by hard learned lessons with no end date in site. Imagine what you could do and imagine the possibility of content that could be added and corrected.

Your ideas of making a flatter endgame is really good and I hope they do it. Getting items like DST which last multiple raids is really good. With Classic Wrath, they've already started making such items more accessible via the Heroic+ system. This would definitely be good for classic+. To me, Classic+ would be more than just a few new raids. There is a lot of cool mechanics that came and went in classic. For example, Ret was junk in vanilla classic. Seal Twisting made the spec great at ST but entirely lacking cleave. Then Wrath gutted the twisting tempo, giving us cleave options. Classic+ would ideally give us a Ret spec with Twisting AND Divine Storm, to finally give us the classic spec with decent options. Same goes for other specs. Lorewise, I think this would be a cool setup for classic+: at the end of Dragonflight, we defeat an Infinite Dragonflight boss. However, he escapes in a time bubble before we kill him, never to be seen again. This dragon then pulls a Garrosh and messes up the timeline, just before the Vanilla era of the lore. The result is that a ton of things can happen differently. What if Onyxia awakened Deathwing? What if Arthas showed up in Naxx? How does that change the story? I call this mode 'Infinite WoW'. The cool part about this mode is that the devs do need to do a lot of work, but most art assets are already available to use. And the altered timeline allows us to not only revisit old content, but change (and possibly improve) the lore. Infinite WoW is highly unlikely to ever happen, when Cata can just be pumped out. But man I'd love to play it.

Love the alternate timeline idea, definitely a direction they could use. The raids need to feel completely fresh though, I think if Classic+ is just fresh with a few changes (like SoM) then it will fail because we've all been there and done that.

In order for classic + to work imo the whole games needs to be tweeked slightly 1-20 could probably remain mostly the same, but adding some extra quests here and there def wouldn't hurt. A really fun thing blizzard could add would be hero classes, but instead of just picking the class it is instead an extension of your character class treated as kind of an extra talent tree (maybe unlocked at 60) Paladins could become death knights, hunters; darkrangers, warriors; blade masters, ect. Perhaps the points required to unlock these classes can only be obtained once per character per end game raid or something. This system would create a new level of content to be played through and something to keep end game content fresh. I also think creating bigger and new end game content can synergies well with old expansions. Take Outland for example, blizzard could tweek the whole zone and essentially make it a new kind of raid experience. Obviously just spitballing here but making something like a guild expedition where the whole guild can access Outland but they have a month to clear it before resets. More events like the opening of AQ could also be fun. Idk though I think with some creativity there could be alot of cool things that would essentially revolutionize the game and give classic players fresh experiences

*The difference is that GOOD GAMES like: Final Fantasy 14, Oldschool-Runescape, Guild Wars 2 etc.* *is that the Developers actually listen to the player bases, and content is released when it is FINISHED.* *The Old-Content is still relevant and just as difficult as they were when they were released.* *Progression feels meaningful in their own way, without the arbitrary daily- or GDKP bullshit.*
