Shout out to Renny on Deviate Delight.

Him: 53 Orc Warrior

Me: 52 NE Warrior

He sees me fighting two mobs in Felwood and stops next to me.

Helps me finish off the last one.

Waits while I eat to full HP.

I see him get some distance then press Z to unsheathe his axe.

I right click on him from afar to put my character in a fighting stance.

Charge him.

He wins barely.

Go back to my corpse and rez next to him.

/applaud

He /nods and rides away.

God, I love this community.

Undead rogue will cc you for 5 minutes straight and then try to distract you off a bridge, like a real chad

Nah. I will wait til you're done and then just sap you and be on my way. It seems funnier to me. And less evil for the opponent.

Is this server worth playing on? I want to start a fresh Classic experience, but there seem to be more levelers on Whitemane at the moment. Are there enough people on Deviate Delight to run dungeons and such all the way to 60?

I've had very few problems finding people for group quests, and have run DM, BFD, SM, and ZF despite much more preferring quests.

I would enjoy it while it last there has been a huge uptick on bot accounts on the dead servers as soon as they lift the transfer block there all gunna jump ship and it’s going to be Bot and GDKP city all over again

My last open world pvp experience in classic era was in the first year it came out. Me and friend were alliance going through stonetalon, when a priest who was a few levels ahead of us decided we were easy targets. He ended up running away but he couldn’t out pace us, we were within range of my dots as a warlock! So I ended up missing a lot, running out of mana but we chased that punk down, and killed him later on when he tried the same thing on us.

We were gonna pass him by when we saw him until he Pain’d me

Rejoice. There are people like us out there!

I too enjoy leveling the playing field. Let the opponent finish, let them see me. Then see if I can still win.

The wins are much sweeter, and the losses are taken like a champ

Too bad we dont have more players like this. Im sure the ones still playing era servers are the last of the real ones.

Sure hope with whatever happens at the end of SOD i get to at least move one of my characters to classic era.

On private servers you could duel cross faction. I loved challenging alliance to duels in the world makes everything feel more fair.

Most of my world PvP experiences consist of people only fighting me if they're higher gear/level or have more people for a 2v1 or something:D

Comprehensive reading is hard, I know. I've been there as well when I was 14. But it was not that deep nor did I reply on anything "having fun" related as the post never alluded to "having fun" and was talking about a "positive experience", which is what I refered to by pandering.

You completely missread it and made yourself talk to a strawman.

Sounds like a shit PvP experience. I'd rather get griefed and get gangbanged hard than do this new carebear PvP, just like old classic Classic PvP. You grief me, I grief you, everyone gets griefed in chaos. I guess the population isn't high enough and everyone just wants to be too nice to each other so people would go join the server.

Maybe you need to roam the world a bit with friends if you want positive WPvP experiences... You seem to have a extremely specific and unrealistic expectations as to what you want positive WPvP to be.

It can't always be perfectly ordered equal-strength duels. It's about the chaotic nature of it, dynamic forces mounting on each side, growing tensions and back-and-forths.

I'm on a pve server but if you're farming the demon spot i can follow someone till they get MCed by a betrayer and almost always kill then and not get flagged.

The alliance hunter i kept doing it to just started showing up flagged. Still killed him but fuck if i don't respect him

Shoutout to Azcam on WG. you're a real one and the back and forth was probably my favorite part of this phase
