So many great memories from vanilla I played a warrior tank. Granted I know nostalgia plays a big part but it was my first mmo and I loved it. Here is a list of things I remember:
- The sense of wonder first time I got to Kalimdor as my human warrior and started lvling there was great so different than the other side it also made the world feel huge.
- My totally rational hatred for my pally and warlock friends and their lvl 40 mounts.
- The freaking repair costs as a tank and the cost for buffs before raids, I was broke most of the time. After a while 2 guildies (a pally and a warlock ofc they had money) got tired of waiting for the MT slow horse and bought me the fast mount I loved them for that and they got a tank ready to help whenever they needed it.
- I have a fun memory of AQ was going there for a raid and got ganked on my way there several times by a horde guild. Then my guild came out in force and butchered the horde. It was really great seeing 30+ players rushing out of a raid zone to save my ass.
- Doing random shit on the raids we had on farm to make it more fun. Like every one (who was on voice chat) had to drink when someone died, that spiraled out of control.
- I was on a mostly Dutch guild and 2 of our main priest tended to be high as fuck during raids it was painful and sometime hilarious.
- I also loved doing random stuff after raids in the evenings. Like launching organized PvP raids to horde capitals or the Barrens (sorry horde people).
