Nostalrius Begins - Quality wow vanilla realm (1.12)

Just wanna tell my opinion regarding the players that get access to the testrealm. With a server that supports 8k players I think it wouldnt hurt to allow every raidguild to test the raidcontent. Right now several guilds are being shut out and the guilds with access does gain an unintended advantage when it comes to progression. Once BWL is released the guilds that ran it on the testrealm know what works and what doesn't. Just look at MC atm, it has some bugs which can cause wipes because the script isnt working properly.

I'll also refer to how it was in retail, where everyone could access the testrealm. However, I don't think its reasonable to allow every single player onto the testrealm but I atleast think it would be reasonable to allow every raiding guild to test out the content in order to promote a healthy competition among the guilds.

You're testing in a proverbiale wonderland compared to the things real testers endure, argumentum ad hominem is going to do nothing but discredit any real points you may have. Try testing 14 years ago in Pre-Alpha on Windows 98 your head would spin.

Literally who cares about windows 98 pre-alpha.

I am not sure if you're trolling or just being ignorant on purpose to try and further your point. Are you telling me you do not understand how extra time in a instance is an advantage? Not to mention the bugs that were not fixed and then I can only assume were abused with Molten Core.

We didn't test Molten Core, and neither did any other guild as far as they'd like to have.

But yeah, I really don't think getting HOURS ON HOURS of practice watching the KTM threat meter in BWL isn't a big deal. Are you telling me that you fucking need hundreds of hours to learn how to stay below the 3rd and 4th brown box in your KTM threat meter to kill Vaelastrasz? Do you need 12 attempts to learn not to put curse of recklessness on Broodlord? Maybe you need help with basic instructions like "taunt the drake every time bigwigs tells you to" or "tranq every time frenzy comes up", but the vast majority of the raiding population isn't completely lobotomized, and has been raiding these instances fairly consistently for the past 2-3 years in some cases. Oh wait, I forgot how hard time lapse was. lols.

Once again not sure if trolling or purposeful ignorance. You think reading a strategy an hour beforehand is an advantage but hundreds to thousands of hours inside said instance before other players is not?

Everyone on this server going for server firsts has hundreds to thousands of hours inside BWL already. If you're not going for server firsts, why do you care?

Don't play the martyr son, you wanted to test it and it benefits you greatly. Also it makes no sense no one is yelling at you they are yelling at the actual Nostalrius team, you're trying to martyr for an issue your not involved in lol

I don't want to test it. I do want a good instance though. So I test, because I don't trust other people to make accurate reports because things like Drakk and Ragnaros being untauntable made it into the live realms because of some random report that wasn't sourced properly at all. And people are yelling at the guilds involved, maybe you should step up your forum trolling "SON"
