I think they will have to evolve the game eventually, if they just make vanilla and stay in vanilla forever it will die. To start, it should be vanilla, but chose a patch where most of the initial bugs were fixed. But its hard, because some of the fixes that were rolled out, also made content easier. I mean, how old is Nighthaven now? - And Rag was just killed by horde yesterday... I wouldnt mind it being a bit harder in Classic. What i definetly dont want that I've seen suggested in a lot of places, is balancing of specs. I dont want the game where all the hybrid classes and viable in all specs. I dont get why somehow people feel they should be allowed to play a ret/prot pala, as if its a human right just because the class has a spec for it. Sure, you can play it in PvP, you can farm with it etc. but in vanilla if you wanted to get into a proper guild as a pala, you were holy. Thats what I want again. Basically, I want a fixed vanilla, not a remade vanilla.

Well, the point is to raid, so I would want to play a role that actually is possible to get into raids with :)

Read on a reddit post that raid spots, on vanilla servers, are borderline impossible to get as a prot warr, is that really true?

Thats exactly the info I needed! Would have gone for prot warr or mage if i didnt have that. I like to play several classes, and have a few that I actually know how to play in Vanilla. So the choice is stick with prot warr and out-shine all the others to become main tank, or a dps other than mage. :)

Hello! I am new to Elysium, stumbled on it after the announcement of Classic WoW got my WoW juices flowing :D I want to start playing some of the best WoW which was Vanilla and TBC, so figured since this is a fairly new realm, I'd start here! Seeing as Im new here, I have no clue how the ratios are on Elysiums server, so Im looking for some advise. I would be playing for the PvE part mainly, so what I'm eager to figure out is: Horde or Alliance for raiding? In Vanilla Horde was superior due to bloodlust, but is that also the situation on Elysium, are Horde generally better at PvE? Which class? In Vanilla my servers mainly lacked experienced tanks, primarily warriors. I played a mage in Vanilla, being in the nr. 1 guild on my realm (all server firsts in Vanilla except 1 ZG boss). But in TBC I swapped to prot warr and LOVED it, i ended up migrating to join a top world guild (Silence on Silvermoon) and progressed through BT before having to go a bit more casual. Ideally I would play a tank, and preferably a main tank at that, but that is dependant on actually getting to tank and do stuff, otherwise I'd prefer DPS. Basically I thrive when I actually get to do stuff :) So what does Elysiums servers generally lack more, what would be the right thing to play? Thanks in advance for any pointers!
