WoW Mists of Pandaria Classic: Discover New Features & Prepare Like a Pro

This post originally appeared on MmoGah.

Blizzard has announced that Mists of Pandaria Classic will be released in summer 2025, bringing back one of the most beloved expansions in the history of the game. With its release, players are eagerly anticipating the chance to revisit the mystical land of Pandaria, experience its unique features and content, and prepare for what lies ahead.

1. Exploring Pandaria

Pandaria is renowned for its breathtaking landscapes and diverse zones. The expansion introduces nine distinct areas, each with its own unique aesthetic and storyline. From the lush forests of the Jade Forest to the tranquil farmlands of the Valley of the Four Winds and the eerie, war-torn Dread Wastes, Pandaria offers a rich tapestry of environments for players to explore. Each zone is filled with quests that delve into the lore and history of Pandaria, providing a deep and immersive experience.

 

2. The Farm System

One of the standout features of Mists of Pandaria is the introduction of the farm system. Located in the Valley of the Four Winds, players can acquire their own farm through a series of quests. This system allows players to plant and harvest crops, which can be used for various in-game purposes, such as cooking and crafting. The farm system adds a relaxing, almost meditative aspect to the game, reminiscent of popular farming simulators like Stardew Valley and Animal Crossing. It provides a break from the usual combat and questing, offering a different kind of engagement for players.

 

3. The Pandaren Race and Monk Class

Mists of Pandaria introduces the Pandaren, the first neutral race in World of Warcraft. Players can choose to align their Pandaren character with either the Alliance or the Horde, adding a unique twist to the faction dynamics. Alongside the Pandaren race, the expansion also brings the Monk class. Monks are versatile fighters who can specialize in tanking, healing, or damage dealing. Their combat style is fluid and dynamic, incorporating martial arts moves and chi energy. This new class offers a fresh gameplay experience and adds to the diversity of character options available to players.

4. Classic Raids

For many players, the highlight of any World of Warcraft expansion is the raid content, and Mists of Pandaria does not disappoint. The expansion features several iconic raids, including the Siege of Orgrimmar, Throne of Thunder, and Mogu'shan Vaults. These raids are known for their challenging encounters and rich lore. They provide opportunities for players to team up and tackle formidable bosses, earning powerful gear and achievements. The return of these classic raids in Mists of Pandaria Classic allows players to relive these epic battles and experience the thrill of high-stakes teamwork.

 

5. New Storylines and Quests

Mists of Pandaria Classic brings with it a wealth of new storylines and quests. One of the central narratives revolves around Garrosh Hellscream and his descent into tyranny. Players will embark on quests that reveal the dark path Garrosh takes, which ultimately leads to the climactic Siege of Orgrimmar raid. The expansion also explores the rich culture and history of the Pandaren, their philosophy of balance and harmony, and their struggles against ancient evils. These storylines are woven into the fabric of the game, providing a compelling reason for players to engage with the content.

 

Preparation Guide

To prepare for the launch of Mists of Pandaria Classic, here are some steps you can take:

 

Level Up Characters

• Ensure your characters are at the maximum level in Cataclysm Classic to smoothly transition into the new content.

• Participate in events like the Turbulent Timeways to quickly level up additional characters.

• Take advantage of WoW MoP Classic Boost services to enhance your leveling experience and reach your goals faster once this game releases.

 

Gather Resources

• Stockpile essential materials such as herbs, ores, and cloth, which will be in high demand for crafting new items and gear.

• Focus on gathering professions like Herbalism and Mining to maximize your resource collection.

Complete Achievements

• Finish any remaining achievements in Cataclysm Classic to ensure you're ready to tackle new challenges in Pandaria.

• Engage in pre-patch events to unlock exclusive rewards and prepare for the new expansion.

 

Investment Guide

Investing wisely can help you make the most of the upcoming expansion:

 

Crafting Professions

• Invest time in leveling up crafting professions such as Alchemy, Blacksmithing, and Tailoring. These professions will be crucial for creating high-demand items like potions, gear, and bags.

• Focus on crafting items that will be essential for raiding and PvP, as these will have a steady market.

 

Market Trends

• Monitor the auction house for trends in item prices. Stock up on items that are likely to increase in value once the expansion launches.

• Consider investing in rare materials and recipes that will be sought after in the new content.

 

Gold Management

• Use some WoW MoP Classic gold to invest in new mounts, pets, and other collectibles that will be introduced in Mists of Pandaria Classic.

• Be prepared to spend gold on essential items and upgrades to enhance your gameplay experience.

 

As the mystical land of Pandaria returns in Mists of Pandaria Classic, players have the chance to relive one of the most beloved expansions in World of Warcraft history. With its breathtaking landscapes, engaging storylines, and exciting features, this is your moment to prepare, explore, and make your mark. Don't miss out on the adventure that awaits—get ready to embrace the journey!

Good Solo Gear Score Farming Locations in New World

 

This post originally appeared on MmoGah.

Today, MmoGah would like to give you some good watermarks or gear score farming locations. These locations will help you to get a great start and end in the game, and get some really solid gear score upgrades.

 

 

Lonely Climb

I will specifically say that the first location is a healer-focused location because the blessed void gauntlet is so hard to find that you can't force it on any craft.Also you can get a very good blessed life staff. Now let's go straight to the first spot.

 

The first spot is to take us to Shattered Mountain. You will go to the mountain home Outpost and then the Lonely Climb (As shown below) to farm two Ancient Skeleton Bosses.

The healer focus spot is where you're going to get some healer gear. On the first boss who blesses you, a void hand guard will be added to the loot list, meanwhile this boss will drop a life staff to restore mana and bless you.So if you're a healer looking for these two things and you're looking to get your healing set started, I would suggest going there. Something else is every boss will drop decent watermarks, but you'll also get legendary crafting components. I've got the ice crystal core, musket drop, shield drop.

 

After you kill Darshan, you're going to go up the stairs behind him. You'll follow the path pretty much straight and take your first left, and you'll either go left or right. If you want to go left, keep following the path straight, and then you'll get another fork later which is in a little bit of a cave. And you can either go left to get the first chest as I always do. Or you can go right and go straight to the boss to keep that loop continuing, you'll cycle between Darshan and the other Skeleton boss just over and over again. Then you can get whatever loot you can get which is a great way to get a starter watermark going. You can also run in groups.

 

So, in order to improve your chances of getting more watermarks, make sure you kill the mob between each boss in each rotation. Be sure to pack the boxes as I did in front of the second boss. This first position is just a highlight for me, especially when I want to start running, so I can make sure that my vanity gloves are higher and my life stick is higher.

 

 

Edengrove

Our second location going to take us right here in Edengrove.

It's a really easy boss to farm. There are two chests you can get, they can have legendary trophies, legendary stuff, more drops. And the boss is only on a two minute respawn and is very easy to kill. So since he's on such a low respawn time, it's a great spot to solo watermark, but it's also a great spot if you really want to grind out legendary crafting components for certain weapons and make some gold or use them yourself. It's a fairly easy location to get to. You just have to climb up some rocks, climb up to a small temple, and then you just sit there in the back, but he will not aggro you, and you can sit there and farm them over and over again, and it's super easy. Sometimes it's a little bit more competitive, so I have to do some PvP.

 

 

Spryla Tower

Our final location is also to take us to Shattered Mountains in the Blighted Wild specifically Spryla Tower.

Although this boss is a 64 elite, he is still very easy to kill. You just pull him over to the tower line of sight him so that he runs over to you. This location is especially good as your watermark gets higher because he has a 64 elite. While he has a longer spawn timer that means his potential to drop a more average higher watermarked piece of gear is higher as well. And then in your downtime, what you could do is just run around to kill whatever else in the zone. There are some chests to open up, and you can get a pretty solid source of watermark increases from this boss. When I did I was getting items in the high 550 range, somewhere 557, 559, and you could even go higher for sure.

 

Conclusion

So these are the top three solo watermarks farming locations we would like to share with you. I hope all of these locations helped you out a ton. If you are interested in this content, you can follow Lemoni's channel since has more explanations on this topic. And most content of this article also comes from him.

In the end, I still can’t help but want to recommend MmoGah to you, because I guess as a New World player, you may really want to know where to buy cheap New World Coins. MmoGah must be the best choice for you because the coins here are not only cheap but also the shop has a high reputation. Start buying now to enrich your inventory.

Some New World Items You Can Sell For Quick Coins

 

This post originally appeared on MmoGah.

If you want to know how to make gold in New World, you can try to sell these items listed below. These are the items we have been selling to make quick gold in New World. So let's go into the trading post directly.

 

Orichalcum Ammunition

Arrows

Orichalcum Arrows are selling at the moment on my server for 10, 15, 20 cents, and it's actually quite low.

But the reason I sell these now is that I am trying to improve my engineering, and it doesn't even matter what price it is. I always put them up for 20, 30 because what happens is when there's a fight going on or a war, people come and buy all the small orders, and they keep going and buying up all the rest. So I put items on for whatever price I want. You can put it on maybe an hour before there's a war or maybe at peak time when there are some PvP quests on, and you can definitely make some good money with these types of arrows.

 

Cartridges

Cartridges are actually at good prices, maybe you want to go and sell these depending on your server.

Sliver of Adderstone

The Sliver of Adderstone is another good one I have been using to make gold. It ranges usually from 200 to around 100 gold. Right now it's about 140, which is pretty good because I can get Sliver of Adderstone for four or five of them within 10 minutes.

 

Orichalcum Ore

The next one is Orichalcum Ore. I've been making a lot of gold with it, and I would recommend you do this because it is blowing up right now. The reason why this is blowing up is there's an update coming out soon where Orichalcum Ore can be used to make other rare items like Cinnabar. So I would highly recommend that you could do this right now as much as you possibly can because this is going to be worth quite a bit of gold in the future. And people can actually use this in the future to create legendary materials. So Orichalcum Ore is a really good one that you should be selling right now. I haven't specifically been selling this myself but the reason I put it in is that this is a good one to sell in the future.

 

Starmetal Logging Axe

I've been actually selling a lot of this recently, and this might seem a bit strange because it is the star metal tool, like your axes your pickaxes and all that sort of stuff. There are not many people making them because they think that they can't make money with them anymore, but there are still new people coming into the game, so you can sell them to the new players.

Now you're not going to make tons of gold doing this, but if you're trying to level up your engineering and stuff like that, this could be a potentially good item to sell in New World.

 

Last but not least is Chunk of Adderstone. You can go to Sike's video to learn about the details of this item. In addition, most of the content of this article also comes from his video. If you are interested, you can follow his channel.

Conclusions

To be honest, no matter how good the methods of making gold are, it is not as fast as buying gold to obtain them. Now, the New World Coins prices are very low on MmoGah, and we have a large amount of coins in stock. Buying coins here can help you get rich quickly.

Secrets of Rapier and Musket in New World

 

This post originally appeared on MmoGah.

Today, MmoGah would like to share some of the tricks we use on rapier and musket, but this isn't meant to be a one-stop guide, just some tips and tricks that you may not know about. let's get into it directly.

 

Tracers

The reason why I use a lightning channel is because of the tracers. And the lightning tracers don't linger in the air as long as the Arcane Void and Ice tracers do. Tracers that linger in the air a long time are easier for other musket users to track and hunt you down. An ice gem can be a decent choice if you attack players impacted by Ice Gaunt's Ultimate Chill debuff often.

 

Swap to Reload

You can swap weapons to reload your musket instead of letting the reload animation play out and slow your movement. It won't make the musket reload any faster but it lets you move freely to be evasive and use evade to avoid attacks. This is especially useful against other ranged users. Just make sure you use tactical reload once every six seconds to get a second shot off.

 

Double-Tap Fast

How do you fire your second shot so fast? This one is fairly simple: you just keep holding the right mouse button when you dodge to reload and fire as soon as you are back on target.

 

Peeking Left vs Right

Since your camera is offset to the right of the musket, and your bullets originate from the end of your musket, you need to take care when peeking from the left.                                 

As you can see, my bullets are already hitting the wall at this point. From the right, you can aim directly up against cover without issues.

 

CQC Targeting

Again since our camera is to the right of the musket, you need to adjust your aim in close quarters a little towards the right side of the character model. You'll get a feel for this at different distances with practice.

 

DoT Wallhax

When you do damage to a target, you can see it through cover and walls for a few seconds, however, if you apply a bleed from Keenly Jagged or burn from Powder Burn, you can see it for the whole duration of the damage over time. This is extremely useful when you tag someone and they go behind cover.

 

Crippling Powder Burn

Crippling powder burn isn't just slow, it also increases your damage by activating passives. The kikkom wilder down passive in the musket tree adds 10% damage, and the 250 dex passive adds 10% crit damage.

 

Final Zoom Low Sens

In patch 1.1, an additional zoom level was added to musket. Just scroll wheel up one more notch beyond the second zoom level to access. The biggest benefit of this additional zoom level is that it has very low sensitivity.

 

Evade Distance

Evading forward moves a short distance while evading back moves you quite a bit further. If you're close to an opponent when you evade side to side, it will automatically loop around their model.

 

Evade Cancel

Evade can cancel any animation including Fleche, and you can cancel out of a light or heavy attack into her post or even do combinations like this.

 

Fleche Combo

If you have a stationary target, you can do some significant burst damage with a Fleche into the Interruption backstab followed by a Momentum buffed Light attack, then Evade into another Momentum buffed Light attack.

 

Evade for Stamina

If your stamina breaks, you can use evade to get back to full faster so you can dodge again.

Gear

Now let's talk about gear. I've always shown you what I'm using but we haven't talked about my priorities or my ideal perks.

 

Ideal Earring

For earrings, I'm searching for one that has decks or ant, generic physical or elemental resist and Refreshing Toast plus either Nimble or Purifying Toast.

 

Ideal Ring

For rings, I'm searching for one that has decks or ant, generic physical or elemental resist and Keen Awareness plus Leeching.

 

Ideal Amulet

For amulets, I'm searching for one that has decks or ant, generic physical or elemental resist and Health plus Empowered.

 

Armor Perks

For Armor perks, this is my priority list.

 

Crippling Powder Burn is my absolute top priority. Next, I want to have Sundering Riposte and Empowering Shooter's Stance. If I can get pieces that have Resilient along with those perks, all the better, but I'll take those weapon perks over resilient if I have to. For the other armor slots, I prioritize Resilient over the other weapon perks, but if I can get Resilient and the weapon perk, that's great.

 

Why Resilient

I've been asked why I prioritize Resilience so much even though I wear light armor, and the answer is that I don't like getting too tapped by other glass cannon muskets or one shot at by bows. The combination of full or nearly full Resilient, the hail and hale and hearty town buff and health on my amulet makes me a three tap for muskets and requires a bow to land more shots on me than just a single heavy attack or penetrating shot to knock me down.

 

Musket Perks

Weapons can be tough to attain, and there are a lot of good perks. That said my ideal musket would have Vicious or Enchanted, Keenly Jagged and Keen. I think there are plenty of other viable options like Infamy.

 

Rapier Perks

My ideal rapier would have Vicious, Keenly Empowered and Keen. Rogue is still a good perk but is now correctly only impacting back attacks.

 

Choose for Yourself

Overall, you might have different builds and priorities than I do, and I highly encourage you to experiment and check out other content creators, and find what works best for you. In closing, if you enjoyed this guide, you can follow Kutsuu's channel, because most of this article’s content is from him.

Outro

Compared with others in the game, coins may be the players’ most concern. Cheap New World Coins are what players really want to get. Our price is lower than that of the same industry most of the time, and we also hold various promotional activities from time to time. So, choosing us can help you save more money.

PoE Builds 3.16: Corrupting Fever Tornado Shot Build - Gladiator

 This post was originally appeared on MmoGah.

 

"Is there a full PoE Build Guide for that Corrupting Fever Tornado Shot Gladiator people play?" "Of course!" Grimro has made a video on his channel about the build. Today MmoGah will share this sorting build with you.

 

 

 

Steel Skill Leveling Act 1-4

Level act 1-4 with steel skills use rustic sash weapon recipe. As long as you have the links ready, swap to blood slinger right after killing Malachai in act 4 and hitting level 38.

https://pastebin.com/sMt0SAe9

Use the Act drop down and toggle between acts 1-4.

 

 

Bleed Slinger Leveling Act 4-10

After act 4, switch to Kinetic Blast (KB)/Spellslinger setup. Right after swapping to slinger, make sure to respec your melee nodes to the correct nodes on the tree. After swapping to bleed slinger, focus on making sure all of your links are correct. Ensure you stay on top of your resistances and aim for enough resists staying capped after beating Kitava.

https://pastebin.com/sMt0SAe9

Use the Act drop down and toggle between acts 4-10.

 

 

Bleed Slinger Leveling Map Gearing

If you have PoE Currency from leveling, consider purchasing the following leveling uniques if they are cheap.

- Le Heup of All

- The Magnate

When hitting atlas, focus primarily on acquiring all of the gear in CF KB League Start PoB. Continue to complete your atlas, but it is secondary to acquiring your basic gear. If you hit a damage or survivability wall, go down a few map tiers, upgrade your gear, and level up your gems.

 

Upgrade Priority

+1 physical wands

Cluster Jewels

2 Mod Crimson Jewels

Delirium Essence Gloves

 

If you can't get an item, move on to the next item on the list or settle for 1 mod less or 1 passive point more on the clusters.

https://pastebin.com/JLUtDPcr

Refer to the CF KB LEAGUE START tab in this sheet for crafting advice. Check the prices of sellers versus crafting it yourself.

 

 

Pure CF KB Swap

After acquiring most or all of the gear in the CF KB LEAGUE START PoB, you can swap your gem setup and drop spell slinger. Dropping spell slinger will improve your clear damage but decrease your single target by an amount, so don't swap if you're struggling. Swapping to pure CF will allow you to run more auras and get you ready to change to TS after a few more PoE Items. Your gem setup and gear should look similar to the PoB listed here.

https://pastebin.com/JLUtDPcr

 

 

Tornado Shot CF Transition

Before swapping to TS, you should ensure that your CF damage will be high enough to be effective. Before swapping, make sure you have the following minimum crafting tips in CF TS MID BUDGET tab.

- 6L redeemer aura chest

- A damage focused amulet with the no mana cost focus mod +1 or multi is fine

- Level 1 empower (higher lvl the better)

- 6L crafted bow

- Projectile speed frenzy quiver

 

Upgrade everything else in the sheet listed with **New** using instructions

https://pastebin.com/ivuH3iP3

 

 

 

It's important to note you will still be a squishy TS build at this point but with insane clear and good dmg.

 

 

CF Tornado Shot Upgrading

Work towards the high budget PoB the following changes will have the biggest impact.

- Pick up and endure small composure cluster and take endurance charges.

- Acquire a level 3-4 empower for massive damage gains.

- Craft an awakened +2 amulet and anoint charisma.

- Acquire an enlighten 3 and, combined with the amulet, turn on the determination.

- Acquire a 2 mod herald of purity ring.

- Pick up a 1 or 2 mod watcher's eye for damage and defence.

- After gaining damage, respec your tree bit by bit to drop the damage nodes on the tree for defence.

- Finish your perfect clusters for Armour, Chaos res, life, and resistances.

 

Round out the rest of the upgrades from the PoB and crafting sheet.

https://pastebin.com/bSVcnEPt

 

 

CF Tornado Shot MAX

If you made it this far, you know exactly what needs to be done. See you on the other side of wave 30 simulacrum.

 

 

Here is the end of this build. I hope this can help you a lot, and enjoy your path!

 

What is New in Final Fantasy XIV Endwalker

This post was originally appeared on MmoGah.

Are you expecting the newest expansion-Endwalker in Final Fantasy XIV? Do you want to know the new things about Endwalker? Let’s have a look.

 

 

There will be a new storyline, a new playable race, two new jobs, new areas, a new level cap, new raids, a new housing district, a new data center, and many more new things waiting for players to explore.

 

 

FFXIV Endwalker Release Date

 

FFXIV Endwalker will be released on December 7, 2021. The expansion was initially set to release on November 23, but it was delayed to ensure everything is stable for launch. It is only two weeks later, and no one is blaming anything since they are only trying to make this new expansion perfect and make the game more classic.

 

 

FFXIV Endwalker New Story

 

The new story is about the tale of Hydaelyn and Zodiark. The Final Fantasy XIV company-Square Enix, always have the power to blow our mind with the stories and music, and this time, I believe they will blow our mind again.

 

 

FFXIV Endwalker New Playable Race-Male Viera

 

The first Viera in-game only have females, and it was added in Shadowbringers back in 2019. Two years later.  We are about to have Male Viera to play with, thanks to the development team.

 

 

 

FFXIV Endwalker New Jobs-Sage and Reaper

 

The new job Sage is a healer, using Nouliths as its weapon. It looks like half dagger and half gun, and Sage controls four of them floating around to heal and attack. It is the coolest healer ever.

 

Sage’s starting city is Limsa Lominsa, and starting level is 70.

 

 

The new job Reaper is a melee DPS. DPS is short for damage per second, and it means that classes deal damage in-game. Reaper uses a two-handed weapon-scythe, and there is red and black smoke when they are in battle, which looks so evilly cool.

 

Reaper’s starting city is Ul’dah, and starting level is 70.

 

 

 

FFXIV Endwalker New Areas

 

There will be two new towns called Old Sharlayan and Radz-at-Han, and other areas called Labyrinthos, Garlemald, and Thavnair. I guess these places are level 80-90 areas for players to do quests and level up.

 

 

 

FFXIV Endwalker New Battle System

 

The arrival of new jobs and a raised level cap brings a new life into the battle system. New gameplay elements and new actions for existing jobs allow players to experience the thrill of combat as never before.

 

 

FFXIV Endwalker New Tribes

 

Two new tribes will join us in the coming expansion-Arkasoodara and Loporrits. One is big and strong and looks like an elephant, but with longer ears and a shorter nose; the other looks like a cute little rabbit.

 

 

 

FFXIV Endwalker New Threats, Challenges, and Raids

 

The new threats are called Anima and The Magus Sisters. Anima is a giant monster that bound with thick chains. The Magus Sisters is a unique style in the game, and I think it may have an interesting background story for us. Also, the new raids, Myths of the Realm and Pandæmonium, are waiting for players to challenge.

 

 

 

FFXIV Endwalker New PvP Content

 

The new PvP system is a brand-new content type. It brings the opportunity for casual players to participate in heart-pounding battles without role restrictions and have plentiful new rewards. The battlefield will be hectic once it is released.

 

 

New Housing District: Empyreum and A New Data Center: Oceania

 

We need more places with more players joining the big family, so now we have a new housing district-Empyreum in Ishgard, and a new data center called Oceania.

 

How to buy a house in FFXIV at the new housing district, first, you need to prepare a decent amount of Final Fantasy XIV in-game Gil before the release, and then check for the houses once you log in, so you can have plenty of choices to find the perfect place for your home.

 

 

 

Island Sanctuary

 

Other than intense battle fights, there is also a new relaxing place called Island Sanctuary.

 

It says on the loadstone, "Come and relax in your own personal paradise, where you may let your minions roam free and while away the hours to your heart's content."

 

So this place may have an entrance like an inn room, and maybe you can summon out all of your minions and mounts to hang out together. It would be so much fun.

 

 

 

Data Center Travel System

 

For the first time, adventurers will be able to visit Worlds on other data centers, form parties, and enter duties with friends! Some of our friends may play on different data centers. Now, we can all play together with this new travel system!

 

 

With so many new updates, what do you want to experience the most? My guess, all of them! :P

 

 

You may have some questions about the new expansion or Gil buying in FF14, so I have listed a few to help you.

 

       What to do before Endwalker?

-The top priority is to buy FFXIV Gil, so you can buy new things or new materials for new recipes and craft them to sell for a higher price at the beginning of the release.

 

       Where to get safe and cheap FFXIV Gil?

-I recommend MmoGah. It is a reliable MMO in-game currency selling website with fast delivery. You can also buy game boosts for FFXIV. They are very professional and have been in the business for 15 years now.

 

       Why buy FFXIV Gil before Endwalker, not after?

-Because it is comparatively cheap before big updates. When there is a new expansion, suppliers also need to learn about the new things in-game, and everyone will be busy experiencing new things and leveling up, so there will be less farming, and the price rises when there is less stock in the market.

 

       What is the best way to get Gil in FFXIV?

-The best way to get your Gil is Face-to-face trade, and it is better to put an item on the trading bar.

 

If you have any questions, feel free to contact their Live Chat at any time. They will help you with patience. I wish you well, and thanks for reading.

 

Is It Worth Playing WoW Classic Season of Mastery

This post was originally appeared on MmoGah.

WoW Classic Season of Mastery (SoM) is coming on Nov 16. Many gamers are discussing these questions recently: 

Is it worth playing WoW Classic SoM?

Is WoW Classic Worth Playing 2021?

Is Classic SoM popular?

Should I play Classic WoW SoM?

Well, if you are trying to figure out whether Classic Season of Mastery is worth playing or not, then the answer is certainly yes because it is actually so amazing!

Blizzard's vision for Classic Season of Mastery is simple. They want to offer a faster cadence by having this season last 12 months with only a couple of months between the patches while offering more challenging content through harder raiding.

 

Blizzard added a whole lot of new things and changed a bunch of stuff which made the game actually feel like a completely new product. Here MmoGah.com will share some important changes, and you can't wait to play it. Let's get into it.

 

Leveling

Leveling is probably one of the most changed areas in Season of Mastery. Leveling speed will be increased. For example, Adventure Awaits buff gives a 40% bonus XP to quest.  

Dungeon quests and Elite quests will also give more XP. I actually tried this new leveling change on the beta and got to level 40. This was definitely noticeable, and it definitely made leveling faster than Classic WoW. I guess the only issue is that the amount of WoW Classic gold you get keeps the same while leveling is faster, which means getting to level 40 with Classic WoW gold to buy your mount is going to be more difficult

 

When I got to level 40 on the beta, I had just around 60 gold. Actually, it needs 100 gold to buy riding skills and mount, and I was definitely applying all the leveling etiquette to save as much WoW Classic Season of Mastery gold as possible.

 

Leveling is awesome as it basically removed the need for grinding mobs, so you're going through a journey and trying to keep alive. If you have no time to do it, you can buy WoW Classic boost to help you level up fast.

 

Hardcore Support

One big selling point for Classic Season of Mastery is the support for hardcore leveling. It's a community-made thing where your goal is to reach max level without dying at all.

 

Now Blizzard officially supports that Soul of Iron mechanic. You can go to Ironforge or Undercity, and you'll find a high Elf NPC there. If you talk to him or her, you'll be able to enable Soul of Iron, which gives you this buff for the rest of your journey until level 60. Whenever you die, you'll receive a debuff called Tarnished Soul, which also decreases your stats. Don't worry, as you can remove this debuff if you choose to continue playing your character. But obviously, you'll not have the Soul of Iron buff anymore.

 

No Boosting

Another big change on Season of Mastery is the complete removal of any form of boosting.

 

Maraudon mobs are immune to snares, slows, and roots 30 seconds after entering combat. Stratholme mobs also gain immunity to snares 30 seconds after entering combat, and most importantly, mobs give significantly less experience when a high-level character is grouped with a low-level one. These changes will also help combat bots.

 

Faster Ranking

Season of Mastery's one big change is the PvP honor system. We all know how difficult it was ranking up in WoW Classic, and it took people weeks of playing non-stop to reach rank 14, and only the most dedicated players managed to do it. Well, Blizzard is making it easier to rank up in Season of Mastery.

 

The PvP honor system has been adjusted to accelerate the rate at which players rank up, as you can see below.

This should make ranking up significantly easier, and you definitely won't have to play 15 to 20 hours a day non-stop to reach rank 14 anymore, so if you want to reach the coveted rank, it can shorten your time in Season of Mastery.

 

Quality of Life Changes

There are a bunch of small things brought to Season of Mastery, like meeting stones being turned into summoning stones, the Looking For Group tool from TBC, mining and herb nodes increased in number, the debuff cap removed, and world buffs also removed from

raids, but all those small quality of life changes should make everyone's time with Season of Mastery feel a bit more enjoyable.

 

Raiding

Let's move on to the crux of the matter – Raiding. It has been made significantly harder in Season of Mastery. Blizzard not only doubles every boss and mob's health but also brings a bunch of mechanics to each one of them. World buffs have been very infamous in Classic WoW for locking people out of their characters for days and also making raiding much easier than before. People were stacking full world buffs on every raid and clearing Naxxramas.

 

Blizzard is pulling the plug on world buffs, and you can still get them, but the moment you enter a raid, they're gone. You can go to buy Chronoboon Displacer that was added in Phase 6 of Classic, grab all the world buffs, save them, and pop them when you enter a dungeon or something. That single-handedly makes raiding significantly harder.

 

Onyxia

There are a plethora of changes brought to every boss in Season of Mastery. Let's start with the most insane of them - Onyxia. Phase 1 is basically the same as Classic, but once she flies off, she will summon two wardens, so they do a bunch of AoE fire damage and hit like a truck. Melees can't stack on them, so it's basically the range's responsibility to kill them. Meanwhile, Onyxia is still in the air, spitting Fireballs at everyone, which disorient you once they hit you.

 

Molten Core

Blizzard recently announced that Molten Core would be receiving updates to boss encounters on the Season of Mastery Beta. Here is a list of changes during the test so far.

 

Lucifron

You are only able to kill one boss - Lucifron, and you can wipe continuously to Magmadar and Gehennas. Lucifron has 4 Flamewaker Protector (FP) instead of 2, which means double the amount of mind controls, and I'm pretty sure the debuff he does was also happening faster, but overall, Lucifron was not hard as long as you can manage to tank and kill all 4 FP.

 

Magmadar

After Magmadar is engaged for 20-30 seconds, 2 Core Hound will spawn next to the boss. These addons will respawn if they aren't all killed at the same time. Lava Bomb is cast much more frequently, leaving many more patches of flame on the ground.

 

Golemagg the Incinerator

Golemagg's Core Rager pets are permanently buffed by  Golemagg's Trust, increasing their physical damage and attack speed. Golemagg casts  Earthquake throughout the fight, whereas before, it would only be cast below 10% total health remaining.
