WOW CLASSIC Blogs

World of Warcraft Classic is known for the countless charming, but antiquated systems that make up its core. These systems created an RPG that has no real comparison in this day and age, and are a large part in why it retains its relevance so firmly.

Hunters in Classic are emblematic of this different design philosophy for mechanics. Preparation and management are key aspects of the class, which are further enhanced by Hardcore's higher stakes.

While many systems in Classic can be viewed as both faults and endearing mechanics, its no hyperbole to say that its PvE encounters are severely pared down in complexity, even when compared to The Burning Crusade.
