I seem to remember getting my Warlock's
mount at 40. The quest was "Go talk to this guy in Ratchet and he'll teach you
how to summon a demon instead of making WOW
gold, have fun with that". There was no sense of accomplishment, just
"Here's a free mount that costs half your mana bar to summon, so don't expect to
use it to escape in PvP". And, as I mentioned, having to wait for 2/3
of the leveling process to be done (if not more) to be able to afford a mount
sucked.
Imagine that you had to wait till 70 to get
your first mount and 90 to get epic land riding, and you don't get to fly
because the game wasn't ever designed for that. Some of us would prefer to cut
back on the time it takes to get an alt up to 90 so we can fill out that raid
spot and make some WOW gold that we need, like Heals or Tank or Ranged
DPS, and I'd rather not take 6 months getting to level cap just to start a 3-6
month gear grind to catch up to the rest of the raid so that we can progress
past douchy boss #6.
For some poor unimaginative souls out
there, sure, they just did a web search and played follow-the-leader. For a
majority of us (back in the day), talents were almost a never-ending area of
exploration, testing, learning, trial-and-error. This is especially and most
meaningfully true for the PVP side of the game, where such choices could really
make or break a one-on-one encounter. No, Blizz wanted to roll out cookie-cutter
toons and to sell it they offered the same line that you and many others now
parrot. However some of us still paying attention to that and prefer going to
buy WOW gold from some online
sellers.
I'm not parroting anything, I'm stating a
fact. I was one of those people figuring shit out for a spec that people thought
was for PvP only. The fact was, I was doing things that others weren't because
that's how I played, not because it put out the most theoretical DPS, but
because the build was so integral to my play style that it worked better for me
than the "cookie cutter" builds everyone else was using. Also, you tell me how
you had endless hours of fun spending WOW gold trying to figure shit out,
I never had the money to respec, I did all my calculations with calculators
(both talent and actual) because where I was coming from (Diablo 2) if you
screwed up your build. Respeccing is for noobs so GTFO. Also, there weren't
Endless Builds, there were MAYBE 4 per class that worked back in vanilla, and
here's the talent calculator to back it up.
