There is a blast from the past. Quick reminder tomorrow's reader's post is what you have convinced other WoW players to do. There have been some great ones so far so keep them coming you have until tonight.
I always wish I was around back then. Seems like it would have been fun.

Throwing purples should be brought back Resilence has ruined the PvP aspect of the game.
ReplyDeleteOMG SOMEONE LOOT THE HOUND!!!!

Oh man...making fires with flint and tinder. Someone would need buff food in the middle of an instance and you'd have the flint but not the tinder. Or you flint was taking up bag space on an alt.
ReplyDeleteMy very first UBRS raid with my guild and no one had the key, not even the Guild Leader. He stood in IF for 10 minutes asking for someone to come open UBRS. I vowed then and there to get that key.
I still have my hammer and my scepter and the ashes to call Nightbane. Some things you just can't part with.
Nice post, Gauss.

What about no flight path in Rachet? remember that damn run?
ReplyDeleteMy guildies came up with a few more:
ReplyDelete1. Having to click your mount in your bag.
2. Use Bloodlust more than once per fight.
3. Attunements-right of passage
4. Doing 2k dps was HUGE.
5. Rogues could only singe target dps.
6. Actually having to read a quest and not "questhelper" anything.
7. If you were a douchebag, you stayed a douchebag - now you can re-skin and change your name.
8. Having to run everywhere until you were level 40 and then you got a VERY SLOW MOUNT.
9. You were rich if you had over 50g.
10. Hunters had energy and could only lay traps out of combat.
