Text of the page (random words):
ath classic from 2021 2023 i found it far more enjoyable in a relaxed setting since the crowd that rushed to the end had already gotten to max level ages ago even now on the anniversary servers with the dark portal having only been open a short time that crowd was already steamrolling karazhan instead of working a new toon up to outland so i was a bit unprepared for what happened last night i d gotten to the point where briganaa 2 0 could finally go to blackrock depths so i started looking for a group within 10 minutes i found myself in one and i headed over to searing gorge to lope to blackrock mountain the first indication that something might be amiss was when i began seeing no you re summoning me summon brig in party chat then a minute later no not me click on brig then click the stone i eventually did get a summons to inside the mountain and we waited on the tank to go repair and our healer to get some more water both tank and healer reappeared and we all ran down together and into the instance except for the hunter help me the hunter eventually called out so we ran outside expecting to see dark iron dwarves beating on him just outside the instance but nope instead of following us down he ran up and was wandering in the outer ring at the entrance of blackrock mountain uh oh i had no idea why he decided to wander off but there it was strike one we eventually corralled our wayward hunter and restarted the instance the group was doing okay making progress but i did have my concerns we didn t have a lot of aoe damage in the group which meant that the quick respawn room where hordes of dark iron conscripts wandered about in packs of about 8 10 would be a big issue but before we could even think about getting there however the warrior whispered me shouldn t the hunter be at the top of the meters knowing how hunters as a group tend to be infatuated with big dps numbers frequently to the point of ripping threat away from the tank i replied with an affirmative he s only doing 78 dps right now now for full disclosure while i use the details dps meter add on i typically use its tinythreat option to manage my own threat i ve learned since 2019 to not bother looking at my dps output because it would merely depress me but at that moment i thought about switching back to the dps tab just to see what our hunter was doing but still our slow but steady progress suddenly made sense if the hunter was putting out barely any damage we were effectively 4 manning a 5 person instance i thought about inspecting the hunter just to see what his gear was but i became too focused on keeping up with the group and managing totems that i let it slide that was strike two then the hunter started rolling need on gear that was most definitely not for him the hunter won some leather gear that multiple people could have used myself included so i didn t complain about that hey that s the breaks of rolls right but when the hunter rolled need and won a pair of leather healing gloves i said something hey that s healer gloves not hunter gloves i got no response after that point i began keeping a close eye on what the hunter was rolling need on we didn t have any obvious gear that the everything is a hunter weapon stereotype would have rolled on so i began to consider this just a mistake and that the hunter simply didn t have english as his first language then this dropped off of golem lord argelmach i hadn t seen this drop since i first began playing classic in 2019 which is saying something i have seen hand of justice several times but not this i immediately congratulated the healer on his luck because this thing has something like a 3 5 drop rate and is a fantastic trinket for healers then i saw unc nooo in the chat and i realized what had happened the hunter had rolled need on the trinket and won it strike three the rest of us immediately began telling the hunter that was simply not a cool thing to do and i floated in whispers the idea of kicking the hunter because he seemed to simply have no remorse at all he eventually said sory spelled like that but i didn t buy it the only real problem was getting another player as replacement since it was well past my usual bedtime and we were pretty far into the instance we reached the tavern in blackrock depths and we ran over to the storeroom where hurley blackbreath s casks of ale were stored you can start the hurley fight by destroying the casks or you could start a fight with the goblin ribby screwspigot and pull him into the storeroom to prevent him from aggroing the nearby bar patrons the tank ran out of the storeroom to pick a fight with ribby and just as he came back inside i suddenly saw our hunter begin destroying the nearby casks noo i yelled stop the hunter ignored me and destroyed the rest of the casks and hurley ran in while we were up to our eyeballs with ribby oh crap the hunter then proceeded to shoot at and pull a bunch of nearby bar patrons and then dropped group we might have been good enough to handle some bar patrons and one boss but not both bosses and the bar patrons it was about 12 versus 4 and we quickly wiped why did he do that the tank asked that expletive redacted did that on purpose i replied we called him out and he wiped us in response he was barely doing any damage at all the warrior added the healer was doing more than him more than me i wasn t attacking at all probably totem damage i added besides he stole that trinket from you i lost the trinket and the gloves to him we gamely made an attempt to finish the hurley blackbreath fight but we discovered that he runs out the back of the tavern if he defeats you and by the time we got to the tavern the random mob that shows up at the back entrance was already there we tried to kill the mob but we inadvertently pulled more bar patrons and that was that i was initially certain all of this was done maliciously and from the standpoint of pure greed but after a night s sleep i now think that the hunter was actually a bot the lack of damage output the rolling need on blue items that a hunter could use but not on gear a hunter could not equip the lack of response other than help me or sory or lol out of him and him following very specific patterns starting the hurley blackbreath fight instead of ribby which is the traditional pattern for a brd run and using multi shot which pulled nearby bar patrons are all things a bot could now be programmed to do after the group broke up i d checked to see if the hunter had vanished completely but i noted he d immediately gone to felwood not only a level appropriate questing zone but also a zone where bots are well known to farm felcloth and other materials so yeah i think we were taken in by a bot who did just barely enough to keep us guessing none of us also wanted to jump to the immediate conclusion that he was actively sabotaging our group and our initial reaction to the gradual escalation of anti social behavior was that it was a language barrier it was only when it had become obvious did we call him out and i guess the bot s controller decided it was better to split before anything else or as the warrior put it he took advantage of us trying to be nice i did tell the rest of the group that i enjoyed running with them and hopefully i ll see them in outland just not that hunter i typically look for a group to run an instance when i ve accumulated enough quests to visit the instance in the original vanilla leveling design you gain access to the quests and are marked as yellow on the quest log when you re the right level for a dungeon the biggest exception to this rule are the scarlet monastery instances for an alliance player because the alliance gains access to a seed quest that leads to scarlet monastery at level 35 easily past the level requirement for the first wing of sm graveyard and on the high side for the requirement for the second wing library ideally you d want to visit graveyard around l30 32 not l36 which is what you ll end up at by the time you complete the seed quest on the other side of the planet and head over to southshore library is more about l33 36 so while l36 fits it just barely does the baseball analogy is highly appropriate today as it s opening day for major league baseball in cincinnati being the home of the oldest professional baseball franchise the cincinnati reds est 1869 opening day includes a parade and all sorts of pagentry kids frequently skip school to go to downtown with their parents to watch the parade see the game and hopefully celebrate an opening day victory i don t care if the official drop rate is something about 8 12 because my experience is that it s more aligned with what the community sees as 3 5 posted by redbeard at 12 00 pm email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels group content operation spread the love wow classic anniversary 2 comments shintar march 28 2026 at 8 22 00 pm edt i thought bots were mainly used to do things by themselves or with other bots seems to me like it would kind of defeat the purpose of botting if the owner keeps having to come back to interact with people i never quite know what to think of people like that because you just don t know what s going on behind the keyboard i ll never forget in classic when someone breathlessly whispered me that they wanted to report a bot in our guild the person they were reporting was a guildie s young daughter just because she wasn t playing like normal people expected reply delete replies redbeard april 2 2026 at 11 47 00 am edt as it turned out my friend wasn t a bot per se but a griefer i kept encountering him even when i wasn t trying to but i finally seem to have ditched him but yes i was reluctant to call him out for the longest time because i thought there was either a language barrier or he didn t know how to play the thing is his gear was pretty much what you d expect out of a hunter but the dps and in game behavior told a completely different story delete replies reply reply add comment load more newer post older post home subscribe to post comments atom
