@HisRoyalDudeliness lal, you don't get it, tanking is skill, healing is art, dps is science (which you ofc copy paste from a site :) ) This has ALWAYS been the rule. Tanks is the once with the biggest responsiblity in a group, and the once who have to pay for the countless mistakes DPS do, at all times :p
Ahh, good times. You had to spec for consecration in the holy build, and seals wore off after each judgement! Oh, the epic moments. I wish I could travel back 7 years, back when WoW was in the beta, and everyone were noobs in MMO's!
Everyone says how bad WoW is and how much better WoW was with the first expansion. You know, when it took two hours to organize a 30 minute raid. When it took 2 hours to organize a 6 hour raid (IM LOOKING AT YOU MC), and when there was only ONE viable spec per class. Come on, Much better PreBC? I don't think so. Im not saying its perfect now, im saying its BETTER. MUCH better then it was.
@johndoz better is a horrrible word to use in describing a game, i'd say the new world of warcraft is more viable for the average gamer, it is much easier now, raids are easier..etc Old pre-tbc was made more for, you could say hard-core gamers, nerds maybe, however described you understand the point.
yeah, but until you had full t2 or sth similar you were not able to tank raids....... and that was the frustrating part. i tanked all 5er instances as holy paladin in t1, so it wasn't that hard. btw: i played starting with the beta version and canceled a few months ago and played 90% of the time with ma paladin.
@Alesandros356 i understand your nostalgia feeling because i have it too.. but you are also wrong.. a while back i was able to find a wow server perfect copy 100% similar to the last vanila patch before the pre tbc patch rolled in and trust me you could really see the the tbc patch was a huge improvement for the gameplay.. tbh i dont understand why qq people like yourself even play.. you make yourself sound like one who hate the game but is addicted and cant stop..
This brings back the good old days. My original toon was a paladin in Vanilla and I leveled him as holy. Back when judgement got rid of your seals and you had to make the most out of your auto attacks =)
i used too pally tank my first serious char and doing mc old naxx it wuz fun o used too sometimes heal to ogain aggro well more i was always at 100% or trieing too get past 80% never below it!!! imagine new wotlk tanks tanking levl 60 endworld.
i remember my cousin was a paladin tank in prebc, he worked damn hard to get all of his tanking gear and he was a damn good tank aswell, tanking in a 40 man raid, i cant remember which one i was young back then but amazed while watching him play with other people
great video. have any of you fellas saw the wow cheats pack on warcraftbotsXinfo (replace X with .) ? it is incredible, i recently downloaded the pack. it's got absolutely everything in it, gold guides, bots, hacks, glitches and even the new arena glitch. i perhaps shouldnt tell folks about it but at least this gives you all a reasonable chance to dl it before i own you all!
Also, "uncrushable" (aka blockrating capped) was pretty much impossible preBC because gear was almost never highly specialized, and no gem sockets to further specialize your gear. For example a "tanking" item would be Stam/str/agl. By the time you were raiding you might get gear that was Stam/str/defence, and there were a few items with stuff like br, bv, dodge, parry, etc.
You couldnt get block rating AND defence on all your gear which is what in TBC let paladins become true tanks.
Pallies were actually quite shit tanks in TBC. At least for raids. You had to balance spelldmg, defense (which you never got capped if you stayed balanced) and HP + ridiculous manaregen and migitation that doesnt match warrior at all. I played paladin back in preTBC. I had tanking gear. I MTd few BWL farm runs. Mostly I was used as OT for some bosses (in case warrior OT couldnt come ect.). Paladin wasnt meant to tank in Pretbc. Ofc you could but, never as well as warrior. Thats a sole fact.
@mikenordo healers were probably cheering him on wishing they were him rofl. as well all know, PALLIES ARE ONLY GOOD FOR HEALING PREBC - AS CLEARLY SHOWN BY THIS VIDEO - and for idiots out there. yes that was extreme sarcasm.
See, nowadays when i decided to give WoW another chance, people think you need to be specced completely to do even a normal instance. I ask them, how you think we got it done back in the day before everything got so ubered up? They respond with "noob" i find it really ridiculous some people will yell at you for tanking or healing DEADMINES without being proper spec, you only have like friggin 6-7 talent points by that level
ok yeah the gear was fuckin cool pre BC, but if you say pre BC was better than BC. then you never played it. fuckin you had to play this game like a god damn job to get geared which was horrible. and fuckin 40 man raids.. dont even get me started.
@adney93 No you are very wrong.. I have been playing since wows first beta. you actually had to play this game like a job to get anything done. you can get full ICC gear in no time at all.
@Iamawesomeo666 i just couldnt agree with u more... in bc everyone had their roles, and specs were needed to be mastered not overly spammed classes like we see now. WoW to me has fell off...
Either your healer(s) sucks ass or you're statement about pallys doing well with tanking pre-bc is false. As metsfan92286 said, you were always oom, low on HP and your group was pulling aggro off you left right and center. I do agree about pallys being OP as tanks now (as I have one and out dps my entire raid most of the time), but we can all be thankful that in Cataclysm they are making it so you will need CC again! tho im sure most people have forgotten what CC is in PvE lol
I'm sorry but all this shows was how horrible prot paladins were pre-BC. You only hit a button once every 10-15 seconds, you are constantly oom and/or dying, and your group is constantly pulling agro, and the mobs are dying before you can get agro back.
Not saying it's your fault, you did the best you could with the tools you had, and the gear available to you (there wasn't much in the way of paladin "tank gear"), but to say that paladins tanked "pretty damn well" pre-bc is simply not true.
@OBell95 D2, Quel Serrar, Drillborrer shield, t2 boots t2 gloves, Dungeon 2 gear (in the begining)
int he strathole heis using drillborrer disk, mandokirs's sword, looks like some d2 and d1, also looks like hes wearing t1 shoulders and belt, but im not sure bpout the belt
I see the Divine Plea spell, as well as the Blessing of Sacresty (or whatever) and the holy sheild spell... I am not saying this is fake, but I don't ever remember those spells being in Classic WoW...Tell me if I'm wrong.
Note that this is after righteous fury was put into the game. Before that, a pally tank was even more laughable at the time. no taunt, no threat, no mana regen like divine plea+imp talent, holy shield, etc.
@LinkLover892 I agree - while you could ninja that non-set warrior items (like i did) and rely on a trusty Quel'Serrar and Chrommagus shield (which i was lucky enough to get) there wasn't much that had the stats you needed in order to generate enough aggro to make you a viable tank.
On the other hand, holding aggro wasn't a problem - once you had the mob in possession. That was the tricky bit.
I just got a respec from ret to prot so if anyone could tell me which they think is the best ret prot or holy plz attach a vid with it but so far my luck on bein a prot sucks cuz i can't get a good shield or sword
i think that classic raids should be back with 40 mans and hard as hell bosses that u have to have skill to kill, pvp should be balanced the way it was in tbc, and pve should be that only 1-2 guilds per server can down the end boss not every noob guild that want to raidand dont no what the fuck to do... and no trash epics like kara or naxx shit in wotlk...
Do you know what you're talking about? Taunt has a number of uses, and it costs practically no mana. I, as a paladin tank myself, use it on pulls... if somebody takes aggro randomly, and to pick up adds that just spawned.
Ok, Dethklok , you didn't even read what I was typing. I never said "omg, back in pre BC I used taunt to pull." No. I was replying to Isuck's comment about taunt being useless NOW.
i think pre bc was the most fairest of all the expansions because pallys couldnt do everything and the damage wasnt so jacked up and it took some skill to play your class cuz not everything was handed to you
Most fair? Yeah right. Classic was buggy, and not to mention imbalanced. All the pve'rs whine that resilience ruined pvp, while a level 60 warrior in 5/5 high warlord or GM with ashkandi could oneshot people. I'm someone that has played since 2005, and I'm quite satisfied with TBC and WOTLK now. I wouldn't want classic back that badly.
TBC wise, you pretty much had to be either an Arms Warrior or a Resto Druid to compete in 2v2.
WotLK wise, burst damage is so imbalanced for some classes (e.g. Mage, Rogue and Warlock), and underpowered classes (e.g. Hunters, Warriors etc) are being nerfed again and again all the time.
Paladin Tanks are actually thought to be quite overpowered now with the passive cooldown. Warriors are pretty much the same as the other tanks, they just sometimes have a harder time doing enough Threat per second.
Strat was a 10 man raid and UBRS was a 15 man raid...blizzard changed it so that strat went down to a 5 man and UBRS down to 10 man.
Clearly you havent played wow back in the "good old days"
It took ages to fill the whole raid up with players thats one of many reasons why the blue items at that time was indeed "rare" and pruple items "epic" not like tbc and wotlk trash epics :P
I can agree on the wotlk trash epics, but tbc was still harder then wotlk!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! wotlk sucks, and I am going to write tickets to blizz 'till they make them tbc/pre-tbc servers!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Pre-tbc paladins couldn't tank, if a guild had even thought of having a paladin tank anything tougher than UBRS the guild was instantly labled a noob guild.
Sorry dude but this isn't really tanking, you are just tanking trash mobs because the warrior was AFK or something, the only thing paladins could do was heal, even then I would never trust a paladin as main healer in a 5man.
Lol ur a scrub. Pallys are good healers (id pefer druids tho) but stfu, cuz id like u to tank at 60 as a pally. see how hard it is (personally it was actually easy when i was playing my pally, but maybe cuz grp was lacking dps )
No, pallys were shit healers, the only reason they had to go holy was because that spec was the least shit.
Yes tanking as a paladin at level 60 was difficult, because they are so shit they hold aggro like a hunter using feign death, and stay alive like a level 1 rabbit.
another fantastic video, most of the boons commenting here have absolutely no idea how challenging lvl 60 tanking was, i was a warrior tank at 60 pre tbc and i could no where near match this threat generation!
History lesson: all the instances started out with no level cap. You could 40-man everything.
The caps were first introduced in patch 1.3, limiting most instances to 10 players and Blackrock Spire to 15.
In patch 1.10 (the patch after AQ came out), the caps were lowered again to what we know today. All dungeon instances were now capped at 5 people except Blackrock Spire, which was capped at 10 - long before Burning Crusade ever came out.
I hate how the older game content aren't played simply because the drops aren't worth anything anyomre. Why not do the same thing to everything as they did with Naxx (only for like outlands instances/ raids and Pre BC Raids.
Why was this downranked? All this person did was tank 5 mans and trash in raids. That's not very impressive. Protection paladins were vastly inferior to warrior tanks when tanking bosses in raids, since paladins were designed to heal pre-BC.
Why if it stayed the way it was ppl would have left everything changes for the worse and the best blizz has a dream of what wow should be and are constntly tweeking everyday
I find this video difficult to masturbate to

isnt that just a prove that paladins don't need a taunt to tank?
wolffe93 2 years ago
@ Isuck232
Do you know what you're talking about? Taunt has a number of uses, and it costs practically no mana. I, as a paladin tank myself, use it on pulls... if somebody takes aggro randomly, and to pick up adds that just spawned.
L2P.

they didnt have hand of reckoning back then...only righteous defense...hence u cant pull with that...
dethklok11792 2 years ago
Ok, Dethklok , you didn't even read what I was typing. I never said "omg, back in pre BC I used taunt to pull." No. I was replying to Isuck's comment about taunt being useless NOW.

ikr i'm a pally tank to i mean if pally's didn't have taunts why do dungeons...:p
jaykidd888 2 years ago
i think pre bc was the most fairest of all the expansions because pallys couldnt do everything and the damage wasnt so jacked up and it took some skill to play your class cuz not everything was handed to you
mrgibblz 2 years ago
pre-bc was not an expansion, was original smart one.
dabomber1300 2 years ago
Most fair? Yeah right. Classic was buggy, and not to mention imbalanced. All the pve'rs whine that resilience ruined pvp, while a level 60 warrior in 5/5 high warlord or GM with ashkandi could oneshot people. I'm someone that has played since 2005, and I'm quite satisfied with TBC and WOTLK now. I wouldn't want classic back that badly.

VALKURION 2 years ago
Oh ye, and TBC/WotLK WEREN'T imbalanced.
TBC wise, you pretty much had to be either an Arms Warrior or a Resto Druid to compete in 2v2.
WotLK wise, burst damage is so imbalanced for some classes (e.g. Mage, Rogue and Warlock), and underpowered classes (e.g. Hunters, Warriors etc) are being nerfed again and again all the time.

Where did you get that from???
Paladin Tanks are actually thought to be quite overpowered now with the passive cooldown. Warriors are pretty much the same as the other tanks, they just sometimes have a harder time doing enough Threat per second.

I agree that DK tanks suck atm. They currently have damage spike on them at random intervals, and badly too.
I'd perfer to tank as a Paladin, Warrior or Druid anyday.
Clbull118 2 years ago
TBh, druids and paladins are now the best tank considered by many theory crafters, so what are you blabbling bout?
Warriors and DK's come close.

Strat was a 10 man raid and UBRS was a 15 man raid...blizzard changed it so that strat went down to a 5 man and UBRS down to 10 man.
Clearly you havent played wow back in the "good old days"
It took ages to fill the whole raid up with players thats one of many reasons why the blue items at that time was indeed "rare" and pruple items "epic" not like tbc and wotlk trash epics :P

Pre-tbc paladins couldn't tank, if a guild had even thought of having a paladin tank anything tougher than UBRS the guild was instantly labled a noob guild.
Sorry dude but this isn't really tanking, you are just tanking trash mobs because the warrior was AFK or something, the only thing paladins could do was heal, even then I would never trust a paladin as main healer in a 5man.
Shamans and Hunters had it the best back then.

BUT HOW THE FUCK COULD A SHAMAN OR AN HUNTER WOULD TANK ?

I didn't say Shamans or Hunters could tank, I said that they had the better deal overall back then.

Lol ur a scrub. Pallys are good healers (id pefer druids tho) but stfu, cuz id like u to tank at 60 as a pally. see how hard it is (personally it was actually easy when i was playing my pally, but maybe cuz grp was lacking dps )
TaurenRestoDruid 2 years ago
No, pallys were shit healers, the only reason they had to go holy was because that spec was the least shit.
Yes tanking as a paladin at level 60 was difficult, because they are so shit they hold aggro like a hunter using feign death, and stay alive like a level 1 rabbit.
dougpecklord 2 years ago
ya pally tanks were a pain to heal back then but awsum tanks

You are in a group of 5 in strathlome? This isn't Pre-BC! Strathlome was a 10man raid when back when. He took this Vid when burning crusade was out!

History lesson: all the instances started out with no level cap. You could 40-man everything.
The caps were first introduced in patch 1.3, limiting most instances to 10 players and Blackrock Spire to 15.
In patch 1.10 (the patch after AQ came out), the caps were lowered again to what we know today. All dungeon instances were now capped at 5 people except Blackrock Spire, which was capped at 10 - long before Burning Crusade ever came out.

Why was this downranked? All this person did was tank 5 mans and trash in raids. That's not very impressive. Protection paladins were vastly inferior to warrior tanks when tanking bosses in raids, since paladins were designed to heal pre-BC.
