Reviving my "Tips and Tricks" series. This time, for Classic WoW only! When Classic launches I will be streaming it over at www.twitch.tv/madseasonshow. Come say hi!
IwasMurloc yeah I’m really excited for the community, a bunch of the people from the stress test made a group and are planning on making a guild with all of us, so I’m excited for that
I thought the mobs for easy weapon leveling were located in the blasted lands, not the badlands?
I just like to say hi, here. With all that knowledge of the game you have, you are going to be sooo busy farming stuff like shards for your warlock (if you will stick to that choice), and all those nefty items you mentioned in the video. Somehow I don't portray you as an aggressive pvp player. More of the defensive type, that won't engage much first but who will always be ready to punish the fools who will. The choice of warlock is relevant, because one has to be highly prepared to engage a warlock on pvp. Except probably undead rogues, many will just not get the trouble to try . Am i right ?
@@michelromero1412 Except that he has said on stream multiple times that he is planning to roll a Warrior. And Warriors need as much help as they can get in PvP since they have no healing, no escapes, can't kite, etc.
I used ur link to say hi, but met Hobbs playing hearthstone on your channel.
Your voice is so relaxing, you don't sound dead. *Feels rested*
Double XP it is!
Also sounds a bit like Randal from RST video
DexterityShow more like it’s a fringe medicated croak of a voice
DexterityShow give this prick some emotion
He sounds a bit different compared to his usual videos or it maybe because I listen to the video at work instead of home.
"You'll notice that your breathing timer is much shorter in classic" - **laughs in undead**
while im laughing as shaman
While i'm also laughing as a warlock
*laugh in undead warlock with hydrocane*
:D
Would it be *laughs in gutterspeak*?
my Nana, whom has been playing wow from almost the beginning wants you to upload more classic wow videos, she loves all you're videos, finds them informative, and she says you have a very lovely voice, she says MAKE MORE CLASSIC VIDEOS PLZ, lol. Dude you are very informative, and i enjoy watching your videos.
Gotta play bald characters for the aerodynamic speed increase
My lord this made me laugh.
Don't forget to equip tight suits for that bonus too tho! Haha
Bald gnome to minmax?
@@marcelvondermassen3262 no, giant ears create too much air resistance.
Take it from a bald guy, I can feel the difference.
@@danrebeiz4598 However, beard makes more resistance
You just saved so many lives with that splitting grouped mobs tip lol
It's not as easy as he made it look with a Warlock, since their range lets them stay out of melee while still kiting the one you want to kill. Paladins will have a much harder time of it. Another tip is to make sure you are strafing away (Q or E keys) rather than just running away. You are less likely to get dazed due to a hit from behind.
@@baldie80 Baldie it works very fine with each class. Even warriors. You shoot your target, rend it asap and run while jump-turn-hitting for a few steps while the other mobs turn back. That's how I used to do it since 2004 as a warrior fanatic :-)
Started playing last week and the amount of times I've been mobbed that is a true god send lol
I don't think ever seen a madseason video that I didn't thoroughly enjoy watching.
I think it's cool that Vanilla has all these nifty items that are useful in certain situations. And man, I did not know about most of these! Thanks a lot for sharing, and I look forward to your next video!🔥
My favorite was a magic eye consumable that you could only hold 1 of at a time that dropped off the baroness in UD stratholme. It was basically counterspell. You could really surprise someone in PvP with it by locking down their spell school as a warlock or something.
Please make an AV video with how everything works. No one knows how it works anymore.
People don’t understand the mechanics or how to summon the much-needed mini bosses.
People need to understand the mechanics to summon the mini bosses and collecting scraps.
I may have run AV 1000 times from BC thru Cata, and I still feel like I don't know half of what goes on in there. This would be a great vid.
It will figure itself out, don't worry
Blizzard has chosen not to include the old-style AV.
There is a video of old AV
I’m in Australia and I can literally hear all the gold farmers in China rubbing their hands
dude they'll be hiring the ex-pro farmers that used to farm back in the day. There's going to be entire guilds of gold farmers.
@@Psyb3rLoL do you know that most professional China farmers were not doing this on their free will? I'm actually not kidding saw some docus. Some are tricked into this same way as they do it with prostitutes and some are even threatened that their families will be killed if they don't farm. And they don't get shit for that and just a super small meal per day so the bosses get maximum profit. It's a dirty business
@@Psyb3rLoL many died to exhaustion aswell since they are forced to play more than 16 hours a day sometimes.. it's a real mafia. No memes, no shit..
@@luke571 I don't believe you about the deaths, but the rest sounds like typical Chinese labour. They treat each other like animals, sad really.
@@Psyb3rLoL I mean you don't have to believe me but i saw 2 docus at a time when this was a thing back then. The world just somehow forgot about them.
You know that wow caused several deaths over the years even on normal people that played at home due to exhaustion? Many cases you can look up of people playing 48-72 hours without sleep and then dieing through exhaustion
"More dead than usual"
No worries dude, we don't hear the difference :D
This must be a troll from him at this point...
@@rubik224 Right? It seems like every other video he apologizes for his voice and if self conscious about it.
@@waffel4220 I'm sure it's a troll...
He has that sexy roughness in the voice we all get when woken up
Tell my family I love them..... I'm going in!
Genuinely one of my favriote CZcamsrs, one of two channels that I get excited to watch a video of! Keep it up :)
Brand new player here. Going to be trying classic out. Hope it goes well! Thanks for the tips
Hi 1 year later how did it go? Ive just started playing classic today
If you view replies at all. Try private servers. Turtle WoW is a great one i've been playing recently with a nice community but there a lot out there for free but they do things a little custom.
I hope you've had fun
Hey MadSeason, thank you for all your classic videos. They make the wait for classic bearable. You rock, keep up the great work!
I love u dude and what u deliver to all of us, I specially love how u use some Crock Legends Of The Gobbos background music to some of ur vids, Both Classic Nostalgia and PS1 Nostalgia at the same time
Still my FAVE Mono-Tone Tuber out there! Had aforgotton about some of these, and learned a couple of new ones too! Thanks for that bro! Keep em comin!
Love your videos and the FFIX music! Thanks for taking the time to educate all of us.
Top 3 tips & tricks:
1) Wear diapers.
2) Buy a mini-refrigerator with lots of water.
3) Delivery man is your best friend.
JinKazama1993 agree with the mini fridge. Delivery will cause you to go poor just invest in deli meats and some good cheeses for a quick sandwich and a decent variety of chips, Doritos, Cheetos, flamen hots, takitos, etc you know what you like. Seriously a sandwich takes 2 mins to throw together. And I think you will find wearing diapers will cost you more time in the long run. Just use the toilet for when you got to shit, piss jugs on the other hand are actually important, always have a sturdy piss jug, and I don’t mean one of the empty water or Mountain Dew bottles, I’m talking an actual medical piss jug that is made of thick plastic and a good lid/cap. Trust me, I made the mistake during some of the private servers of using plain water and pop bottles, the ammonia somehow leaks through the plastic, turned large sections of my carpet from a light blue to a pure white like some one had spilled bleach on my carpet. Gl kids
JUST get mini freezer with that fridge and a microwave on top. stock hot pockets. gg
@@garlicjrmade6409
I'm not gonna judge you for peeing into (multiple) bottles, but i mean it only takes a minute or so to get up, take a piss and wash hands.
Or you could go when you are flying somewhere etc
Is it really worth it?
Christian Stachl you will understand if you actually play classic. Vanilla isn’t like retail, how would you like to be camping a named mob for 15 mins and all of a sudden at that 16th min you get the urgency to pee, the mob in question is on a 20 min spawn timer. You gonna take the chance to go to the bathroom? Say you think you got time and while you’re in the bathroom the mob spawns and some other guy comes along and kills him or loots the thing. Looks like you are waiting another 20 minuets, all cause you were to good to piss in a bottle next to your compute. Now I’m not saying you can’t stand up and do it off to the side, I’m not implying you literally sit at your pc and piss sitting down. Also you can keep some soap in your room and wash your hands with a bottle of water over a towel or something or keep some of those little packets of like alcohol soap things they sell to clean your hands with or use hand sanitizer. And I’m not even to go into how handy piss jugs are for when you start doing end game, raiding, dungeons, Battle grounds, you wanna get kicked from a raid or get deserter because you just couldn’t hold it any more?
@@garlicjrmade6409
I played Classic back then and i also understand what you mean. If you or anyone else want to do it, go ahead, but for me personally it's too "extreme"
Sure, it would be pretty annoying in a situation like the one you described with the named mob, on the other hand a) how often do you have such a situation and b) i'm at an age where it doesn't bother me THAT much anymore. Shit happens.
Also the point with raiding or BGs. You can go pee before a BG starts and with raiding there should be some little breaks every now and then so people can go pee or get a snack or so. I wouldn't want to raid in a group where there is no little break in the next 4-6 hours or so.
But again, if anyone wants to play that way, go ahead. I was just curious why people do that ;)
Miss the streams already, cant wait for the classic release so we get to see you back at it. Until then have a good one :)
Your videos are enormously well made, the all around feeling is very comforting. Thanks MadSeason. You are actually one of the few channels I disable my Adblocker for.
Thanks for the tips! There was a few of these I had never known about before in classic. Looking forward to this so much. Thanks for the great content.
The relaxed vibe of your videos are perfect to watch late at night, great video as always MadSeason.
I remember weapon skill leveling being one of the more aggravating parts of being a Warrior, but probably only because I made damn sure to keep each and every skill (including Unarmed) at max or as near as I could before the next level hit. I had one of each weapon type with me at all times and would swap them around as my obsessive nature demanded, "just in case" I found a really good weapon and wanted to use it. Keep in mind that a 12 slot bag was HUGE back then, and 8 slotters were a good mix of affordable and practical (much like 16 slot bags are today).
My obsession with keeping every skill as close to max as possible also crept into Blacksmithing, where it simply was not feasible but I did it anyway. I didn't have my mount until 50 not because I blew all my gold on class skills, but on Mithril. So much Mithril I bought just to avoid "wasting time" on Mining because it was already max...
Anyway, uh, lesson here kids is that it's far from vital (and not always possible) to have every weapon skill maxed out at every level. If you have to spend a dozen fights leveling a weapon skill for that nifty new drop to be worth a damn, so be it. It's better than keeping an entire bag full of old crappy weapons from 10+ levels ago. Side lesson is that you should maybe manage your finances a little, and not blow every coin on something you can get yourself.
Thanks man! That was VERY useful, especially the weapon skill grinding tip. Keep up the good work!
I love that inro man.... such a great sound to go with the video MadSeasonShow Sir. Much love and respect from Southern California.
Love your vids mate! Very informative, not boring at all and always that chill and soothing narrator ;)
Your videos are always done so well and are very helpful man, keep it up! Your becoming on of my favorite CZcamsrs
I love your background music choices in your videos
Just wanted to say that I absolutely love all of your videos. They are so fucking comfy, feels like I just hearthed back into a comfy home, when I start watching.
Thanks for helping out us Wrath Babies ! Much appreciated man - Great videos please keep doing more till launch !
You do not speak for the rest of us.
@@caboose.20 ?? What
As a 30 yo man who played wow back in vanilla, but really got stuck into the more hardcore aspect of the game during tbc... This video is so informative. I would've never known back in those days about stuff like the magic dust and certain farmable consumables like that. I'll have them on my radar going forward thanks to this video. So excited to get back into classic and get my nostalgia flowing!
I play this game since the release and yet there are some tips here that I didn't know. Thanks for sharing!
These are actually great tips! I didn't know those last two, those are excellent!
Great video, Man!!! Loved seeing the old stuff!!
I've benn playing vanilla since launch and I didn't know about heckular dropping greens.. Still learning to this day! Thanks for all of your wonderful videos :)
Thank you so much for reminding us of all those nice to get items. Completely forgot about that water breathing staff. Now I just need a big to do checklist!
Your videos are so soothing to fall asleep to, I love the long videos I can just let run.
Your videos are extremely comfy and informative
Good to hear that you're a fan of OC Remixes as well, Mad :)
FF music, just marvelous!! I love your videos man, keep going! greetings from Spain
Wow, this is a very helpful video! It's been so long that I either forgot or never even knew Magic Dust and a few of these other things were in the game!
I'm so happy you've blown up this much man you deserve it...you'll definitely be one of the more prominent youtubers once classic hits congrats bro!
You're the first CZcamsr who I actually click like on all videos lol
I really appreciate the tips prior to launch! I loved wow and have been wanting the vanilla experience forever since I was too young to*actually* play the game to it's fullest
I was a fisher and a cook back in the day and I also do remember Hunters and Rogues approaching me because of the Winter Squid. I told them how this thing works and I will either fish for them, or they join me. Luckily, the Rogues were kindred spirits (I was an Arms Warrior until I got my hands on Fury Weapons) and they all joined me when the Winter Squid Season started :)
We had a good time fishing and sharing all different kinds of stories. Either from the real life or in game. It turned out, 3 of the Rogues were musicians like me. I am a guitarrist and I found a bass player, a singer and a drummer IN MY OWN GUILD! I do miss my rogues. We had a real life meeting and boy we had a wonderful unplugged session there for our Guildies. Good times... I miss them...
Nice! I thought I'd already know all this but you schooled me on a couple. Keep 'em comin'.
Saving this for when classic drops. Thanks dude!
That Firbolg Wand trick is DIIIRRRRTTTTYYYYY. Love it.
Thanks for making the wait more bearable 🐻
I knew about the hydrocain but I had no idea about the weapon skill stuff. Nice video!
MadSeason is this one Warlock who would give free green cookies to random people
Lol I do this too
You, Good Sir Mad Season, are the quintessential World of Warcraft emissary. I'm glad to see you're still producing WoW videos after all these years. I shall be returning to WoW Classic upon its release simply to rehash the good times I so fondly remember from 2004 and 2005 (or at least try to find them). Man, what an era for gamers to have lived through. Are you going to be running Alliance again MSS?
Man I sat here zoned out to a bunch of stuff I already know. The way you speak is pretty relaxing and the music choice keeps me uppity. I hope you blow up when classic comes out!
Been so long since I played vanilla I almost feel like a beginner, appreciate your videos
I love all the Final Fantasy music as the background!!!
I love the Magic Dust. that stuff is so funny to put on an upper level in PVP and they try and figure how a non-mage just cc-ed them.
Hell yeah another Mad classic video!
Mr Mad, I have mad respect for these videos but more for your use of classic FF music in your videos... a very pleasant touch
Just a little correction. The servants are in Blasted Lands, not Badlands like you mentioned. Love your videos.
God, I love waking up and hearing this intro ! :D
Dartol's Rod of Transformation was awesome! I used to have it in Classic. The effect was so fun to use that I just ignored the quest chain and kept it. Unfortunately nowadays these kinds of items are temporary and have a short shelf life.
Love that ffix melody in the background
More Classic pls! Continue the great work!
Lots more to come....pumped for release!(Even though you probably can't hear it in my voice)
@@madseasonshow your voice isnt as bad as you think though :D
The Fulborg cast in genius. 200 IQ play.
Dude, these tips, didn't know about most of these, and I'm a vet from back in Vanilla beta, so thanks - Awesome video! See you at launch :)
This was a great video! Thank you!!
I miss weapon skills. Something just seemed so cool about you having to actually get good at the weapon you want to use
Thanks for the tips and another great video man!
Shout out to the FF9 music and the orchestra cover. I barely recognized it, but that's my favorite jRPG. Also, great informational video.
I had forgotten about the Ghetto Hearth nice reminder and a great video!
Great Tips & Tricks for Classic WoW by a great Classic WoW CZcamsr with a lovely, monotone relaxing voice... what more we can ask for?
I simply cannot wait till Classic comes out!
Another great video brother!
switch back to your "normal weapon" ... *equips Sulfuras, Hand of Ragnaros*
hahhahaa excellent
Which is literally broken af :D
Good video as always Madseason.
You were featured on Pantheon: Rise of the Fallen’s Facebook page, next to Brad Mcquaid! Good job brother and keep up the good work!
I didn't know about the Hydrocane staf.
Thank you.
I love all your video’s. Please keep posting and ill be watching!
Have the biggest crush on Madseason. Thanks for the content! Its like a nostalgia hug
The best, like always! :) We thank you bro!
is this rly final fantasy 9 music on the background? great video buddy ;)
I remember it as ff7 frozen path music
@@grahamwilliamson5306 it was both
@@rafaelmeza566 thats awesome. Never played ff9 glad to see thar music got more uses its awesome
The one ff that's eluded me
@@luckyhands4995 its absolutely worth getting on the online store if you have an xbox one or ps4. Its a masterpiece you'll be glad you started
Thank you for posting content with the world first race going on everyone is afk while your hard at work putting out theses awesome videos thank you
Always love watching your videos, even if you sound "more dead than usual". Keep up the good work!!!!
Number 3 - the servant weapon skill grind no longer works as announced. They will stop attacking for 1 minute at 1% HP, then resume normal combat and ultimately slay you if you persist.
You don't sound dead, you sound smooth and soothing!
another awesome video, thanks dude
Ty for a great video! I didn’t know many of these things
Im so excited for Classic!!
Getting so excited!
Great video!! classic can't release soon enough!! SOOO READY!!
Nice Video man!
Thinking about loading funny edited WoW classic stuff up 😙
You forgot the Peon slapping stick from Durotar valley.
You can take it outside with you, and animation cancel anybody, somebody hearthing? NOT ANYMORE
Somebody casting? YOINK
Great video, I dont know about others, but I find listening to your voice relaxing 👍
Sweet, thanks for the help!
The "leaving the party" trick still works to this today and it's even easier to do: you can create a private group in Group Finder and leave it immediatly. It's mostly useful while farming some old content, if it doesn't offer you a quick exit. For instance, if you want to farm everything in Caverns of Time, that's the way to go, otherwise you would have to set your hearthstone nearby or something. I mean, if you are farming a mount or something in a dungeon, you could just back and it could take less than a minute, but I still prefer to AFK for a minute and come back later lol
Love yours vids you put a lot of effort in them :) thank you
You're so wholesome my man. I haven't played wow retail for years, and I haven't played classic for even longer. I just jumped back in and currently spamming your vids.
I'm sure when i play classic wow and have your videos in the background, my character will start getting rested EXP cause your voice is so relaxing
These are some AMAZING tips thanks!
Soothing....thank you.....I had a headache before this video
