  2. Uh actually… Quel'Serrar and Quel'Dalar are not the same. And with patch 1.12 you actually were able to get the tank sword in "Classic" already. itemlevel 71 😉 You had to be a warrior or paladin and you had to do a quest which could actually fail leaving you with nothing.

  3. Can we all stop and appreciate everything Hayven Games brought us before he passed away. The world hasn't been the same without him and we all love everything he did for the community.

  4. My favorite way to trick new players was to go to a lowbie zone as a druid, go into bear form, turn on pvp, and just /walk around. Curious lowbies, who didn't know what pvp was and didn't know what a skull icon meant, would think this strange bear was a juicy rare mob and….. attack me…. and get stomped. All in good fun back in the day.

  5. I unfortunately didn't play WoW in my youth, but my version of this was with GTA San Andreas. That game had SO MANY mysteries and urban legends like Bigfoot and the UFOs. Going to a friends house after school and trying to find CJs mom's ghost in the family house, things like that were so fun and interesting back then.

  6. One fun memory I had was when My best friends all played together, I was a shaman, bestie was a pally and the other 2 were a Hunter and a Rogue. I used to be able to outsmart both the rogue and the hunter friend when it came to 1v1. Was hilarious when hunter was 50 and we were 60 on the grind, I pretended to whisper some "secret" tactic to take down rogues regardless of level and all I did was cast earth shield and totems (before buffs were nulled for duels) and he'd just wreck our friend rogue, only for me to take over as the hunter and it was never about knowing the mechanics of classes but I knew my friend really wanted to show me up so all I did was constantly put my traps directly in a line behind me and pretend the pet would find him by running right or left to pressure him into the trap only for me to either push him out of duel range or use the pet to distract him by side stepping behind my character since he couldn't click. I eventually showed them both the trick and they showed me a few in return while my pally bestie would show us that one shot hit on bosses hahaa.

  7. What a great video! A lot of nostalgia! The one that I remember my friends and I all losing our minds over and constantly searching for was Ashbringer. When TBC was announced we were all SO hyped!

  8. I don't really remember a specific myth or urban legend. I just remember the feeling of actual exploration. Seeing sections of the map become revealed. Hesitating to go into a cave because it didn't have a map. Hunting down quest mobs and items because there were no waypoints or GPS markers. The wonder of the game is definitely gone unless you make an active effort to avoid all of the constant spoilers, data-miners, addons, and fight the urge to check wowhead every time to don't instantly know the answer to something.

  9. My husband and I made the journey from Stonetalon Mountains to Shatterspear Village in northern Darkshore in WotLK, which, back then, was normally only seen as decoration when you were in the flightpoint. We wanted to see what we could find there – lore points from the NPCs, maybe a secret vendor? But no, when we made it there, trekking through unfinished areas that looked like an episode of "Reboot", we didn't find anything. The NPCs would not interact with us. It was still an amazing WoW adventure though! We were convinced the Shatterspear trolls would properly join the Horde in Cata. It sucked when all Blizz did with the Shatterspears was let the allies slaughter them instead. A lost opportunity, IMO.

  10. I miss my honeymoon phase in wow when I was 13. It was the most incredible game I had ever witnessed. A mystery around every corner. I'd give up a lot to go back and experience that again.

  11. I remember taking DAYS to level up my blood elves to level 12-16 just to be completely murdered by luzran and knucklerot, so many times… It was an other game really, the many hours trying to form a group, going from orgrimmar to brd ON FOOT, without any fly, trying not to die from mobs, players, then trying to finish the dungeon…
    I remember making FRIENDS in warsong gulch lmao, the afternoon long warsong gulch like it doesn't exist anymore. It was so much better when people didn't just tryhard eveyrthing, but hey, I was 11 so maybe I should take that into account.

  12. For the longest time I believed in the myth that the expansion after Cataclysm was going to be the last one ever. Because Blizzard would want to turn off the money-making spigot that is WoW, amiright?

  13. in vanilla I was a rogue and my friend also a rogue told me you can pick pocket high level elites and get a lockbox that had epic dagger in it, I picked about 2000 mobs in Lbrs/ubrs/brd after that. got nothing.

  14. NGL the fact there were specific sound effects alluding to it.. I totally think they planned to stick an old god down there, and didn't get around to it before they decided they actually went and added one in Wrath, and by that time they'd have preferred it be where everything was going down instead of around the Forsaken starting area. Kinda sorta hope something turns out to still be down there now, and that the Legion reveal is just a red herring or retroactively made into one. If something is down there, given it's proximity to the Undercity and the fact it's been there since well before the sundering, it might be cool to see it utilized during Shadowlands what with the lore spoilers we have at this point in time.

  15. I remember being the person to discover that after getting under SW through the torch in trade district, and you were a mage with slow fall, you could slow fall for 20 mins under STV and eventually land on an island (just a square) under all of Eastern Kingdoms. Got banned for 1 week lol

  16. I mean not wow but it's still funny.
    My friends were showing me minecraft and I accidentally hit a wolf and they told me I'd be fine if I jumped into water because I needed to wash off the wolf blood. So I jumped into the nearest river I found. The wolf deaggroed (because I got far enough away from it). So for around 2 months of playing the game I thought it worked like that. I found out it was a lie when I tried again and the wolf followed me into a river and killed me.

  17. I have refused to look at any information from beta, alphas even the PTR since day one of playing wow, only ever looking up things on wowhead If I was truly lost, and only after a couple of abusive comments for going to google from in game haha. This has kept wow far more enjoyable, I believe wilful ignorance is key to enjoyment haha

  18. The Ashbringer as an urban legend in WoW was a thing since early vanilla, years before Naxx. With each patch Blizzard added more hints to the sword. All the Naxx stuff was kind of a let down as it ruined the treasure hunt for people. There were online forums dedicated to discussing clues. It mostly had to do with random NPC's mentioning it, descriptions on grey items and things you could fish up and certain times of the day. If you do some digging in old databases and use a bit of logic you can sort of piece together an old scrapped questline and that the sword was supposed to be the legendary from BWL. Not Thunderfury.

  19. I'm think the rattling chains and heartbeat is in every crypt. In that big mmochampion list they mention them being in the Karazhan crypts. Tomorrow I'll go and see if it's in normal crypts and report back. It's definitely a cool sound effect

  20. Kharazan Crypts with the upside down sinners, I remember dueling to get polymorphed through the door and walking around thinking it would be a dungeon one day. (It was eventually used in Legion for at least one of the Warlock weapons.)

  21. I really dislike datamining, it ruins a lot of the mystery and surprise. If it could stay in a community of people that are interested it'd be fine, but there are far too many people that are miserable enough to enjoy spoiling things for others.
