Neat note: the Ravager up until WOTLK had no target limit. This meant you could Bladestorm EVERYTHING you pulled agro on. My dumbass STILL carried it up until level 80 for the redone Onyxia raid cause during the whelp part, I would bust it out and send them all to oblivion. I love how high the chance of proc is, especially since it procs on any hit, even AOE abilities.
so much this. Also note that the classes that could use it didn't exactly have greta AoE to begin with. Paladin's had Concecrate and MAYBE seal of command. Shaman eventually had magma totem... Warrior's Whirlwind was capped at 4 targets. Ravager was a lot ofpeople's main AoE when you got into pulls like Ony's whelps (cause someone got feared in) or if a mass of mobs jumps in (like ZF stair event). It's a minor point now because AoE for everyone is more prevalent and not almost exclusively a mage/warlock thing.
@@Testifiable I'm sure he did, but it definitely isn't ideal. One of the big problems with bears was crushing blows. all it took was back to back unlucky hits and you're dead.
Here are some you could've also included here: - Hand of Edward the Odd (proc to cause instant spell cast -- even affects Hearthstone/herb gathering cast times!) - ZG fist weapon set (transformative proc) - Eskhandar's set (proc summons a pet for 2 whole minutes) - Blackblade of Shahram (proc summons an elemental that heals, does damage, buffs, slows, stuns and restores mana) - Runeblade of Rivendare (the only weapon to increase health regeneration & movement speed) - Corrupted Ashbringer (makes mobs in Scarlet Monastery friendly etc.) - The Shoveler & Freezing Shard (class-restricted BoE drops) - Ironfoe (amazing proc, but it also allowed you to speak in the Dwarven language as a member of the horde, allowing cross-faction communication [sort of]) - Spire of the Stoneshaper (the Use-effect increases your armor by 1000, but makes you unable to attack) - Weapons with profession restrictions (Digmaster 5000, Phytoblade) - Lightforged Blade (the only quest reward with a level restriction, and that's because they first forgot to make this item BOP and people abused it by sending it to alts as a leveling weapon lol) - Serenity (proc removes buffs from enemy target) - Neretzek, The Blood Drinker (proc drains health from target, but also scaled with spell damage, which caused massive health drains for shockadins/shamans -- nerfed in classic) - Sword of Zeal (the only weapon in the game that uses gender pronouns in the proc description) - Goblin Smasher (the only weapon with a race restriction) - Staff of Conjuring (a weapon that conjures level 1 food in stacks of 5) - Might of Menethil (highest vendor value of all weapons: 163g; highest DPS of all 2-handers) - Boot Knife (a useless thrown weapon only obtained through pickpocketing specific mobs) - Rockscale Strongfish & Steelscale Crushfish (obtained through fishing, and the only weapons that look like fishes) - Keen Machete (the only bind-on-equip weapon of Common rarity)
i believe there was a bugged weapon back in the early days of vanilla where it had a chance on hit to net the enemy and if u had it proc on the flag carrier in wsg they would drop the flag. memory is a bit fuzzy so cant quite remember what it was.
@@myhandsarebananas Oh yeah, now that you mention it I remember it clear as day. The weapon was The Judge's Gavel, a blue BoE zone drop from BRD. Thanks for mentioning that one. Funny, unique and obscure as heck.
The Blackblade of Shahram, super unique. I was surprised you didn't have it on here. It would summon a flamewalker who would do one of 6 things: Curse of Shahram: AE Slow Enemies Might of Shahram: AE Stun Enemies (~5 sec) Fist of Shahram: Group Haste - 25% (~8 sec) Blessing of Shahram: Group restore life/mana (20 sec) Will of Shahram: Self +50 all stats (20 sec) Flames of Shahram: Flamestrike enemies (~100-150 damage) I had this on my warrior in vanilla and loved it, the AOE stun was so unique and useful in pvp. The dps was a bit low but the procs made up for it with fun factor. Random stuff like this is part of what what truly made Vanilla great.
I can't remember my first blue, but the first epic I ever got was Nightblade. Was given to me by my then guild master because it was level appropriate, and even though it wasn't that good of a sword, it just looked so cool and meant a lot to just have it. I STILL use it as my main weapon transmog. :)
@@Corrupted I got 1 of the swords just by chance, then someone in my group told me about combining it with the other sword that can drop and i got it in the next 2-3 runs. Was unbelievably chuffed to have a purple item/
I grinded ZF for it. Forgot how many runs it took, but I started at 45 and was 50 by the time I got both swords ...then replaced it with IBS a level later. Still in that character's bank though!
I remember in TBC I was leveling a Blood elf pally and some guys were spamming Zul'Farrak for whatever reason I can't remember, and took me in as a guildy and got Jang & Sang swords to combine Sul'Thraze in the first run. They were hyped and I was confused why 🤣
Nice! That's awesome. :) I had a similar encounter, but it was during the pre-WotLK event in Kharazan. I was in a PUG, and that special boss who was only in the game for a week dropped the Arcanite Ripper. Everyone rolled need, so I did too, and I won. Congratulations all around, and only after I left the group and linked the axe to my guild master did he inform me of its (at that time) hidden effect. It's still the crown jewel in my collection to this day!
Atiesh made a portal to Kharazan! Not useful at all for a Vanilla player unless they raided T4 in TBC, but super unique. Also it gave aura buff to team dependent on users class
Felplague I was going to comment how the video quality has significantly increased, but I guess that credit belongs to you. So great job, it adds a lot more character and entertainment value.
OH! Soo THATS how those puppies always got away! 04/05 Warlord of The Horde, Okanar the Hunt, always shit his pants when paladins holding that sword and super gold clothes come running round the corner. “Oh for pete sakes” I remember saying.. every time 😅
I think you missed 2 very importat weapons (or should i say 3) 1. The twin fist weapons from ZG. To start with, those are a set, which is already rather unique. But what makes it even better, is that, the bonus set gives you the chance to proc a 300 attack power buff, which at the same time transform you into a huge tiger humanoid, like the one from Karazhan Opera House. Very few people knew of this effect. I loved to used them in random dungeons tru wotlk and cata, because pugs would get all confused and surprised. The transformation was something realy unique and awesome to behold. Still is, if you ask me, 2. The runeblade of the varon Rivendare. This realy elusive 2h sword has a very low drop chance, and it has a damn weird effect of increasing your movement rate and life regeneration speed... how much? who knows! That's all it said in the damn tooltip! I Do Not remember any other weapon with a "life regeneration speed" bonus, do you?! To make things even more unique, the baron's sword happens to be the default weapon DKs get when they are created. In WotLK, when starting your dk, the very first weapon you get looks exactly the same, and is also, of course, a runeblade, only that it dosen't have the unique "life regeneration speed" effect... WHICH IF YOU THINK ABOUT IT Is fucking weird! Why does DEATH KNIGHT, an undead soldier, needs a LIFE regeneration speed increase? They are dead! WHAT THE FUCK lol. Im serious, did anyone stop to think about it? Why does the undead Baron Rivendare needs a weapon that increases his non existant life regeneration speed?! Why isn't this weapon the number one in this list?!
Want more unique and rare weapons? Here, let me give you material for a 2nd video on this topic: Hurricane . A bow with one, if not THE LOWEST speed in the game! 1.6 seconds!!! In its original form, this bow had an added frost dmg to all its shots! It had the effect of lowering the speed of the enemies. It was then changed to a chance to shoot a frost arrow. My friend used to burn tru his arrows so damn fast with this bow. But he loved it! It was a boe world drop epic. Spire of the stoneshaper. A caster staff with an on use that would stun YOU, not your enemy... it would stun YOU and grant you 1k armor for like 10 sec... and you could NOT interrupt the effect. Is the literal WTF of the vanilla weapons. Force Reactive Disk. While not necesarily a bad item, this crafted shield has the issue that it has the chance to dmg itself whit its own proc. In short, this is an item that you need to repair way more often then any other regular shield. It's just silly!
I liked that blade for two reasons. Before it was nerfed, it delivered additional fire damage with every hit. And if I remember correctly, it had a 25% damage variation for a one hand weapon instead of the usual 50%. But I'm not sure about the second one.
@hirumaredx Parry can be used by DPS melee classes to reduce swing timer that allow to swing more often, if you are attacked by melee enemy. Successful parry reduce swing timer by 50% of weapon speed. About MCP Retribution Paladins and Enchantment Shamans with Spell Power gear use them to proc their special abilities (SoR and Windfury) with procing on hit consumables like Dragonbreath Chilli and Shadow Oil. That can increase their effective DPS even by 100% compared to popular builds.
Arlokks Grasp and Thekals Grasp from the original vanilla Zul Gurub. Have the set still to this day because the chance on hit is so cool, turns you into a giant man tiger beast with the extra attack power.
Slight correction: No. Warriors do not allways wield a sword and shield to tank. There is a thing called "The fury tank spec" which is essencially a Tank, wielding 2 weapons. You use those when healing is not the problem, but threat generation is.
2:38 I ran SM probably 150-200 times just to get this axe and Herod's shoulder. This was during BC, when I was still leveling and I was on Alliance. So it was quite a haul to get out there as well.
You missed the most overpowered one. There was an epic dagger from the last boss/princess in mara that had a chance on spell cast to deal 100 damage to the target and restore 100 mana. The proc rate was like 30% and worked on ANY SPELL. I played priest on a pvp server, and i would frequently just mind vision people to death. It was one of the few ways you could kill someone while they were trying to fly away on a griffin, or kill someone literally across the content from you. You could sit outside or hidden within an enemy city and just spam 100 damage hits on players until they died with nothing they could do to escape it. Because mana/health regen wasn't a thing they couldn't heal themselves longer than you just kept getting 100 mana back from every proc.
I believe in either vanilla or alpha wow, the original Azzinoth blades that were in the game files (artifact quality i believe) could be combined together to make the set, outside of quest or profession, but wasn’t available in game (at least in that form).
as a druid tank who tanked all but i think 3 bosses in vanilla I call bullshit on your only tanks where warriors in vanilla. druids could tank almost every boss with the exception of a few that required special warrior mechanic's and where better than warriors on most. because they where more predicable and easier to heal and had allot more TPS
And could get crushing blows (crits) and insta die if unlucky . Had no good tank items they could get. And took actually more dmg because blocking was extrem good. Yes they could tank but were a lot worse at it. (btw. And heal and dps were the same which is the reason why druids were not realy good in classic overall)
Lol just saw this. Yeah when I originally put the vid together I put 10 crowd pummeled thrre. And even looking at it made my PC lag. And the program crash once. I tried rendering and it said 8 hours so I cut them out and it brought it down to 2 and a half.
I think Typhoon was meant for survival hunters; big agility boost for ranged attacks, smaller strength and stamina boosts for close range, and the parry boost for counter attack.
Well, druids could tank in Vanilla too. There's not so many bosses that they can't main tank, and on some bosses druids would be preferable. But of course back in Vanilla days not many people found the way to tank good as a druid. In 2019 classic though I'm sure it'll be viable.
About the parry stat on two handers: people to this day do not know how parry worked. Not only did you block an attack, but it also lowered your swing time for the next attack by 50% or close to 50%. Which explains why warriors had 5% parry talent in the Arms tree and not the protection tree. Basically parry is good to have
Fun fact: Manual Crowd Pummeler is now also the centerpiece for "Spelladin", which is a spellpower focussed retribution build, that uses "shadow oil", spell power, mcp and procc-items to maximize proccs and seal of righteousness hits. Because seal of righteousness dmg counts as a seperate attack, thus doubling proccs.
I know this is a year later, but the Judge's Gavel should have been on this list. It was silly broken in Warsong Gulch. It would banish targets hit for a few seconds, making them immune to damage. This forced people to drop the flag for easy returns.
Oh man... I remember people "Cleave Tanking" with the Guardian Blade, Pulverizer and Ravager. They were so good for places like vanilla Scarlet Monastery. Hydrocane was essential for us explorers on PvP servers, where water was one of the few "safe" places to level (Tanaris coast), or useful in avoiding Mind Control shenanigans to be drowned by griefers. Thanks for this video. What a pleasant blast from the past, from some of my favorite times with WoW.
Early wow items had so much charm and flair. Every 10 levels were defined by people wearing certain gear. You would plan your levelling around getting certain weapons. That are still iconic to this day. Getting a cruel barb on your rogue in classic is more fulfilling than getting a new M+ weapon that massively increases your DPS. Can you name a single weapon or piece of armor that’s not a raid drop from Cataclysm up to now? Cause I still to this day remember the weapon trajectory of classic and Outland.
Um.. warriors aren't the only class that can tank, druids can tank really well also in vanilla with the right gear and consumes and generate the same or more threat in raids. I have watched a lot of feral druid and prot warrior guides and with the exception of a few bosses in the game, druids work just as well.
Bears could generate threat, but they also could get hit with crushing blows, so it was pretty easy for them to get one shot if they got unlucky. It also was extremely difficult to gear a bear since the gear wasn't tailored toward that spec. Warriors had equivalent threat as deep fury and they had access to taunt, which druids wouldn't get for an entire expansion. Druids could tank, but they were inferior at it. They had some very specific niches, but overall you were better off just having warriors. You have to remember that you cannot base your assumptions on private servers. Those people have had years of running weekly Naxx to get BiS gear that allows them to do things that really don't work unless you have an incredibly specific gear set. In actual vanilla there were often fewer than 5 guilds per server that had even cleared Naxx, let alone were farming it.
@@strongside4565 I do see your side of the argument and you are right that private servers are different in the way certain mechanics and functions work. For all we know they could have been overtuned on private servers like Lights Hope and suck in classic (or vice versa). I just wanted to put out there that druids are viable tanks if nothing but just offtanks that do some occasional healing in-between bosses. Prot / FuryProt warriors will always dominate the tanking scene in classic, there is no doubting that, but druids can do more with less gear from dire bear form. By that I am not saying that they can waltz into BWL with half the bis gear from MC, but going into MC with pre-raid bis and dire bear form will make for great starting tanks to progress with until you fill out the roster more.
@@aGhastlyGuy The moment I saw a BiS priest on Warmane's Wrath server playing Holy with every piece of gear gemmed for INT, I knew private servers couldn't ever be a point of comparison lol.
So Jeklik's Crusher: This was a hated weapon in Vanilla, and got sharded as often as Vendorstrike. So naturally when I was asked to heal on my Paladin alt I was given it as a favor to the raid. This thing was awesome as ret in BGs...the proc chance was fairly high, and it could crit for double...which was awesome because old school ret was similar. Low white damage, but when you crit and your crusader enchant procced and this mace...LOL. Good times.
There is Dragons Call missing. A epic drop from Atal'Hakkar. Very low drop chance. Proc to spawn a small dragon assisting you. Proc'ed quite quite frequently. Unique animation (a skull orbiting around the tip). Had it on my Pala and quite frankly bragged with it until very late in classic. Knew only one person to own it (me). Sorry, Vyse for outrolling you.
I found out that parry in vanilla had a unique effect. When you parry it makes you auto attack faster than you're usual speed. Decreasing time in between autos when parrys occur in your favor.
Would you be willing to do top 10 hunter pets of all time? Or at least, most interesting? I remember there being a lot of variety before things got evened out. I think I even remember a story about a hunter trying to tank Sindragosa with a turtle or a worm back when it was current? There has to be a lot of stories like that.
Oh damn a friend of mine allways claimed in Vanilla that MCP is the or one of the best weapon for his druid and he farmed it everyday.. we didnt believe him but we did let him play with it. Well guess he was right xD
I really like the new format, I loved the old one too but with the music you added and the new format it just seems dope and is a great change of pace! Good job keep up the good work! (:
8:10 The meta in Naxx is warriors with a 2H for most fights for extra threat, so 1% parry would work there. In solo, 1% parry is good, too. Especially on a Paladin for Parry Haste. Druids could tank most content, but they couldn't use swords.
In classic vanilla, Warriors are not the only class that can viably tank bosses in raids. DRUIDS in bear form were some of the best threat per second tanks with the on use item found from gnomer called crowd pummeler. This information was not added when talking about your item number 8 weapon typhoon. Some may argue pally tanks were "viable" but was just not a true statement as DPS would have to purposefully hold back to not pull threat.
Except Paladin's are basically top tier 5 man tanks in Vanilla, especially when undead/demon targets are involved. Not to mention they make for passable off tanks in raids for aoeing the trash. Just because the warriors are the best overall and were the default main raid tank doesn't mean that the other 2 don't exist. There is more to the game than just raiding, especially in vanilla.
I Have to correct you on that Warrior Tank thing :) Firstly: You can argue about Paladins but Druids are not only viable but in some nieche situations the better tanks. Secondly: Highend Warriors would often go dual wield Fury Prot for Extra Thread which allowed more dmg -> faster kill times
No guild would be caught dead with a pally tank because they were such powerful healers. They also didn't have the tools that made them such good tanks moving forward. I do remember hearing about druids being better tanks in niche situations, but I never heard of a guild that had a dedicated bear other than for those specific fights.
@@strongside4565 That's mostly because back in the day, druid bears had no taunt. It wasn't because of their other abilities or anything. Yes ofcourse some tanks fit certain fights better, but the biggest reason was they had no taunt back then. They do now and they're perfectly viable.
@@Sarnatuile Of course they do now. They had taunt as early as Wrath and they were powerful in Wrath, but warrior was he only class that had taunt in vanilla. You just didn't tank with bears unless you were trying to do some sort of unrecognized achievement because they couldn't get threat back if they lost it. Anyone that says any class other than warrior was a good tank is just kidding themselves.
Surprised the Barman Shanker wasn't on this list as the best Rogue weapon even when lvl 60 epics became available. It's speed, at 2 seconds, made it the highest damage dealing dagger for a long time. Right up until you got Perditions Blade from Ragnaros. And no other dagger had a 2.0 second weapon swing until the Grand Marshals dirk later in Vanilla.
Lobotomizer had 2.0 sec swing no? And also this was a dagger that was obtainable by literally ANYONE who wanted to have it. While Grand marshal weapons.. not so much
@Cunt Goblin Just call it illegal how it is. You are same like hippies who cal pirating stuff "shaariiing man". Nobody cares if you do it (well except for the owner of that property i guess) but at least call it what it is.
I had Dark Iron Pulverizer on my warrior, back in vanilla. :) It was such a pain to get! 1. The recipe itself was a drop from a boss with a random chance to spawn in BRD. And you had to be a weaponsmith. A weaponsmith had to go out of their way in order to learn how to make this weapon. 2. 18 dark iron bars, each smelted from 8 ore... You could only smelt the ore at a forge in BRD. 3. Like all Dark Iron recipes, you could only smith it at a special anvil in BRD. All of this is for a lvl 50 blue item. Whose only shtick is a long stun. AND you get a badass polearm at lvl 51 from doing a quest in AV, anyway... AND a lvl 43 blue axe is better...
@10:00 Benediction is formed by clicking on an item in inventory to combine it with two other items, if that counts. Also, no mention of Silent Fang? While it was hard to use in PVP due to it being a high speed mainhand, it made for a solid dungeon tanking weapon, and was used by some death knight in pvp 2 expansions later, resulting in a quick nerf.
Actually warriors can 2h tank well while levelling if you don't pull big each time. Probably better option for fast dungeon runs, smaller pulls but faster killing
@@RazanaArcclaw Sure there is. Your gear level rises and, with it, the fights become easier and healers start complaining about boredom rather than going oom.
If you put some thought into it they are bis for quite a while in long fights The proc adds so much potential to the hunter as they stagnate before naxx
Note that the Manual crowed pummler was actually viable for rogues to since their main attacks if they went combat or assassination was speed/agility based, so basically they would use a dagger in a off hand and used the mace for their main hand since the 50% extra attack speed was essentially 50% more agility right off the bat, this does not mean it's the best in slot item for rogues but it was up there for good dps output during their first raids since they could switch it out after with a sword or dagger and continue fighting just with the extra 50% attack speed for 30 seconds it was pretty much viable for any class that needed that agility boost.
I still have the set in my bank. During Cata especially, I would often use them on the training dummies in Stormwind and instantly get whispers about what the tiger thing was whenever it procced. I'd just play dumb and say I didn't see any tigers. The proc lasted long enough that you could run around with it like a crazy person to really get people confused.
Chromatic sword its such a weird collectable these days but back in the day it was also weird if I remember correctly. it was a mid-level green that gave +7 to all resistances and dropped only from one rare mob in stranglethorn.
The weirdest wepaon i ever owned, was a mace that had an on hit effect, that would make the one affectes speak Dwarf language. I say i owned because i vendored it without knowing it would become rare.
Oh yeah, when languages were a thing in WoW. I remember that, one day logging on to try and speak /dwarven and looking the fool was weird. Also looking into your skill tab, where your known languages were, and just seeing "Common" and even that just disappeared later.
List could have been about "Chance On Hit weapons in early WoW" and would not be all that different I think since 7 already have an CoH effect on them.
Hah, that Feral Druid bit is real funny. I'd like to know more things that people have figured out over the years on illegal servers that goes against the conventional wisdom of what's good in vanilla.
I had the Halberd of Smiting back in the day, before it was fixed the proc could crit and was dealing a lot of damage, 2100dmg crit while a mortal strike crit at that time dealt around 1300.
you would have to include the 2 handed axe that transformed you into a metalhead undead that would break into a heavy metal guitar solo. Was only available from a certain boss during the halloween event and only in karazan. Now that the instance has been modified it's no longer is available. It was a 2 hander for hunters for stats but was fun to break into the guitar solo. I would also add the "letter opener" which at the time was a must for rogues as it had the fasted attack speed in the game.

7:47 "Tanks included warriors and that concludes the list of classes that can tank" *Sad Bear noises*
fun fact bear tanks are pretty good at the start of vanilla with manual crowd pummeler
Yep! I've heard early on in vanilla that bear tanks have massively higher threat than warrior tanks meaning everyone can go ham on dps.
@@jesuslikeslsdnwiid Pretty sure they had some niches in Naxx too.
Look up Skarmtank on youtube, dude tanked 15/15 Naxx as a bear!
@@Testifiable I'm sure he did, but it definitely isn't ideal. One of the big problems with bears was crushing blows. all it took was back to back unlucky hits and you're dead.

- Corrupted Ashbringer (makes mobs in Scarlet Monastery friendly etc.)
- The Shoveler & Freezing Shard (class-restricted BoE drops)

Curse of Shahram: AE Slow Enemies
Might of Shahram: AE Stun Enemies (~5 sec)
Fist of Shahram: Group Haste - 25% (~8 sec)
Blessing of Shahram: Group restore life/mana (20 sec)

Nice! That's awesome. :) I had a similar encounter, but it was during the pre-WotLK event in Kharazan. I was in a PUG, and that special boss who was only in the game for a week dropped the Arcanite Ripper. Everyone rolled need, so I did too, and I won.
Congratulations all around, and only after I left the group and linked the axe to my guild master did he inform me of its (at that time) hidden effect. It's still the crown jewel in my collection to this day!
Atiesh made a portal to Kharazan! Not useful at all for a Vanilla player unless they raided T4 in TBC, but super unique. Also it gave aura buff to team dependent on users class
Hope everyone likes it, this one has been a long time coming with me having to learn after effects!

@@DraxonTehWarrior Oh its more of Captain Grim's doing, my stuff is the least noticeable, Grim's are the ones you are thinking about!

2:23 "You spin me round, round baby right round, like a record baby, round, round, round, round"
I think you missed 2 very importat weapons (or should i say 3)
1. The twin fist weapons from ZG. To start with, those are a set, which is already rather unique. But what makes it even better, is that, the bonus set gives you the chance to proc a 300 attack power buff, which at the same time transform you into a huge tiger humanoid, like the one from Karazhan Opera House. Very few people knew of this effect. I loved to used them in random dungeons tru wotlk and cata, because pugs would get all confused and surprised. The transformation was something realy unique and awesome to behold. Still is, if you ask me,
2. The runeblade of the varon Rivendare. This realy elusive 2h sword has a very low drop chance, and it has a damn weird effect of increasing your movement rate and life regeneration speed... how much? who knows! That's all it said in the damn tooltip! I Do Not remember any other weapon with a "life regeneration speed" bonus, do you?! To make things even more unique, the baron's sword happens to be the default weapon DKs get when they are created. In WotLK, when starting your dk, the very first weapon you get looks exactly the same, and is also, of course, a runeblade, only that it dosen't have the unique "life regeneration speed" effect... WHICH IF YOU THINK ABOUT IT Is fucking weird! Why does DEATH KNIGHT, an undead soldier, needs a LIFE regeneration speed increase? They are dead! WHAT THE FUCK lol. Im serious, did anyone stop to think about it? Why does the undead Baron Rivendare needs a weapon that increases his non existant life regeneration speed?! Why isn't this weapon the number one in this list?!
Well the sword mimic the unholy aura from Warcraft 3, where undead regenerate their life on plagued ground
Want more unique and rare weapons? Here, let me give you material for a 2nd video on this topic:
Hurricane . A bow with one, if not THE LOWEST speed in the game! 1.6 seconds!!! In its original form, this bow had an added frost dmg to all its shots! It had the effect of lowering the speed of the enemies. It was then changed to a chance to shoot a frost arrow. My friend used to burn tru his arrows so damn fast with this bow. But he loved it! It was a boe world drop epic.
Spire of the stoneshaper. A caster staff with an on use that would stun YOU, not your enemy... it would stun YOU and grant you 1k armor for like 10 sec... and you could NOT interrupt the effect. Is the literal WTF of the vanilla weapons.
Force Reactive Disk. While not necesarily a bad item, this crafted shield has the issue that it has the chance to dmg itself whit its own proc. In short, this is an item that you need to repair way more often then any other regular shield. It's just silly!
There was also the offhand i was debating, that one.... Name ewscapes me but you could sacrifice health to increase your speed
@@RazanaArcclaw Skull of Impending Doom?
@@josejuanandrade4439 yeah skull of impending doom!
"bears can't parry attacks anyway" sounds way to funny to me for some reason
Back in Vanilla, I farmed Hydrocane forever. I finally got it to drop and I was so excited just to find out Pallies can't use staves. Grrr... :)
kek no underwater breathing for you
I think have another weapon (mace) or equipment with same stats, but I can't remember where. 🙄
No Dragons Call? A sword that summoned whelps!
Totally could have took “Deathblow”’s spot on this list.
Funny, I was expecting that one too
The Reforged Blade of Heroes was unique becuse you had to reforge it.
I was really dissapointed to find out there was no more weapons like that at all
@@marcelosamame4357 same, it was a really cool concept
I liked that blade for two reasons.
Before it was nerfed, it delivered additional fire damage with every hit.
And if I remember correctly, it had a 25% damage variation for a one hand weapon instead of the usual 50%.
But I'm not sure about the second one.
You missed Hand of Edward the Odd. Which was brutal with wind fury shaman builds.
best thing about it was instantly hearthstoning in pvp
@@Barduk793 or instant arathi flag caps

Phantom Blade was the best!! My rogue had one. It looked awesome as an rp sword because it sheathed on your back
@hirumaredx
Parry can be used by DPS melee classes to reduce swing timer that allow to swing more often, if you are attacked by melee enemy. Successful parry reduce swing timer by 50% of weapon speed.
About MCP Retribution Paladins and Enchantment Shamans with Spell Power gear use them to proc their special abilities (SoR and Windfury) with procing on hit consumables like Dragonbreath Chilli and Shadow Oil. That can increase their effective DPS even by 100% compared to popular builds.
Arlokks Grasp and Thekals Grasp from the original vanilla Zul Gurub. Have the set still to this day because the chance on hit is so cool, turns you into a giant man tiger beast with the extra attack power.
Wow bro you got me all hyped up when I saw "The Nicker" 0:06 and you didn't even mentioned it D: 😭
4:11 anyone else notice the music changed heavy metal when he started talking about deathblow, very clever hiru....
Yeah, Hiru is very clever.
Slight correction: No. Warriors do not allways wield a sword and shield to tank.
There is a thing called "The fury tank spec" which is essencially a Tank, wielding 2 weapons. You use those when healing is not the problem, but threat generation is.
Pretty sure that only became a thing starting on private servers though.
2:38 I ran SM probably 150-200 times just to get this axe and Herod's shoulder. This was during BC, when I was still leveling and I was on Alliance. So it was quite a haul to get out there as well.
Absolute bullshit, herod drops about 4 items, of which 2 are the axe and shoulder. There is no way in hell that took you 150-200 runs
You missed the most overpowered one. There was an epic dagger from the last boss/princess in mara that had a chance on spell cast to deal 100 damage to the target and restore 100 mana. The proc rate was like 30% and worked on ANY SPELL.
I played priest on a pvp server, and i would frequently just mind vision people to death. It was one of the few ways you could kill someone while they were trying to fly away on a griffin, or kill someone literally across the content from you. You could sit outside or hidden within an enemy city and just spam 100 damage hits on players until they died with nothing they could do to escape it. Because mana/health regen wasn't a thing they couldn't heal themselves longer than you just kept getting 100 mana back from every proc.
Back in Vanilla, I got both of the swords to combine into Sul’thraze in the same run. I guess you could say I was happy.
My best friend who was a hunter ran me through ZF SOOO many times to get me Sul’thraze. It was my very first epic item.
I got sulthraze at like lvl 55 what a waste
I believe in either vanilla or alpha wow, the original Azzinoth blades that were in the game files (artifact quality i believe) could be combined together to make the set, outside of quest or profession, but wasn’t available in game (at least in that form).
as a druid tank who tanked all but i think 3 bosses in vanilla I call bullshit on your only tanks where warriors in vanilla.
druids could tank almost every boss with the exception of a few that required special warrior mechanic's and where better than warriors on most.
because they where more predicable and easier to heal and had allot more TPS
And could get crushing blows (crits) and insta die if unlucky
. Had no good tank items they could get. And took actually more dmg because blocking was extrem good.
Yes they could tank but were a lot worse at it. (btw. And heal and dps were the same which is the reason why druids were not realy good in classic overall)
I loled So hard on this "druids can tank too" xdd
Bear bis in MC I think pulls ahead of warriors because of threat but that's about it. Dps prot becomes so strong it's not even comparable
"Imagine like 10 crowd pummelers here I dont want this video to take 50 hours to render" am I the only one who caught that?
Hai Hai yes cuz u NERD
you forget staff of jorden
Lol just saw this. Yeah when I originally put the vid together I put 10 crowd pummeled thrre. And even looking at it made my PC lag. And the program crash once. I tried rendering and it said 8 hours so I cut them out and it brought it down to 2 and a half.
I think Typhoon was meant for survival hunters; big agility boost for ranged attacks, smaller strength and stamina boosts for close range, and the parry boost for counter attack.
It actually looks like a warrior sword (mostly pvp/solo farming). There is mechanic as parryhaste in a game
Well, druids could tank in Vanilla too. There's not so many bosses that they can't main tank, and on some bosses druids would be preferable. But of course back in Vanilla days not many people found the way to tank good as a druid. In 2019 classic though I'm sure it'll be viable.
I remaber my main character was a feral druid tank in classic
Here before balding male inspects this videos content

Because you are*
There was a 1hand/offhand mace/axe that was a wrench that had a decent chance to disarm proc. I used this alot on my Fury warrior in Vanilla lol.
Hello Mr. Bald, we've been expecting you
About the parry stat on two handers: people to this day do not know how parry worked. Not only did you block an attack, but it also lowered your swing time for the next attack by 50% or close to 50%. Which explains why warriors had 5% parry talent in the Arms tree and not the protection tree. Basically parry is good to have
7:50 *laughs in Skarm*
Haha I love he pointed out the “fatal wound” cause when I read it and saw the damage I thought the same thing
Dunno about you, but in vanilla 160 DMG in the 30s and 40s was serious business!
Broken Blade of Heroes because you had to repair it as a blacksmith to get a usable weapon.
"outside of professions"
Fun fact: Manual Crowd Pummeler is now also the centerpiece for "Spelladin", which is a spellpower focussed retribution build, that uses "shadow oil", spell power, mcp and procc-items to maximize proccs and seal of righteousness hits. Because seal of righteousness dmg counts as a seperate attack, thus doubling proccs.
I know this is a year later, but the Judge's Gavel should have been on this list. It was silly broken in Warsong Gulch. It would banish targets hit for a few seconds, making them immune to damage. This forced people to drop the flag for easy returns.
Oh man... I remember people "Cleave Tanking" with the Guardian Blade, Pulverizer and Ravager. They were so good for places like vanilla Scarlet Monastery.
Hydrocane was essential for us explorers on PvP servers, where water was one of the few "safe" places to level (Tanaris coast), or useful in avoiding Mind Control shenanigans to be drowned by griefers.
Thanks for this video. What a pleasant blast from the past, from some of my favorite times with WoW.
Cookie's Tenderizer just for the looks.
Early wow items had so much charm and flair. Every 10 levels were defined by people wearing certain gear. You would plan your levelling around getting certain weapons. That are still iconic to this day. Getting a cruel barb on your rogue in classic is more fulfilling than getting a new M+ weapon that massively increases your DPS. Can you name a single weapon or piece of armor that’s not a raid drop from Cataclysm up to now? Cause I still to this day remember the weapon trajectory of classic and Outland.
Um.. warriors aren't the only class that can tank, druids can tank really well also in vanilla with the right gear and consumes and generate the same or more threat in raids. I have watched a lot of feral druid and prot warrior guides and with the exception of a few bosses in the game, druids work just as well.
Bears could generate threat, but they also could get hit with crushing blows, so it was pretty easy for them to get one shot if they got unlucky. It also was extremely difficult to gear a bear since the gear wasn't tailored toward that spec. Warriors had equivalent threat as deep fury and they had access to taunt, which druids wouldn't get for an entire expansion. Druids could tank, but they were inferior at it. They had some very specific niches, but overall you were better off just having warriors.
You have to remember that you cannot base your assumptions on private servers. Those people have had years of running weekly Naxx to get BiS gear that allows them to do things that really don't work unless you have an incredibly specific gear set. In actual vanilla there were often fewer than 5 guilds per server that had even cleared Naxx, let alone were farming it.
@@strongside4565 I do see your side of the argument and you are right that private servers are different in the way certain mechanics and functions work. For all we know they could have been overtuned on private servers like Lights Hope and suck in classic (or vice versa). I just wanted to put out there that druids are viable tanks if nothing but just offtanks that do some occasional healing in-between bosses. Prot / FuryProt warriors will always dominate the tanking scene in classic, there is no doubting that, but druids can do more with less gear from dire bear form. By that I am not saying that they can waltz into BWL with half the bis gear from MC, but going into MC with pre-raid bis and dire bear form will make for great starting tanks to progress with until you fill out the roster more.
@@aGhastlyGuy The moment I saw a BiS priest on Warmane's Wrath server playing Holy with every piece of gear gemmed for INT, I knew private servers couldn't ever be a point of comparison lol.
So Jeklik's Crusher: This was a hated weapon in Vanilla, and got sharded as often as Vendorstrike. So naturally when I was asked to heal on my Paladin alt I was given it as a favor to the raid. This thing was awesome as ret in BGs...the proc chance was fairly high, and it could crit for double...which was awesome because old school ret was similar. Low white damage, but when you crit and your crusader enchant procced and this mace...LOL. Good times.
The crowd pummeler was amazing in WoD lower level bgs since it scaled up to your level :P
There is Dragons Call missing. A epic drop from Atal'Hakkar. Very low drop chance. Proc to spawn a small dragon assisting you. Proc'ed quite quite frequently. Unique animation (a skull orbiting around the tip). Had it on my Pala and quite frankly bragged with it until very late in classic. Knew only one person to own it (me). Sorry, Vyse for outrolling you.
Female dwarf warrior... Respect
kekus maximus thats the real rarest thing in the video
I found out that parry in vanilla had a unique effect. When you parry it makes you auto attack faster than you're usual speed. Decreasing time in between autos when parrys occur in your favor.
That was a cool feature! Wondering though, could it apply to the next Ranged Auto-attack?

Would you be willing to do top 10 hunter pets of all time? Or at least, most interesting? I remember there being a lot of variety before things got evened out. I think I even remember a story about a hunter trying to tank Sindragosa with a turtle or a worm back when it was current? There has to be a lot of stories like that.
Yes
Oh damn a friend of mine allways claimed in Vanilla that MCP is the or one of the best weapon for his druid and he farmed it everyday.. we didnt believe him but we did let him play with it. Well guess he was right xD
@Brian well i never researched it :p
MCP is also used for Spelladins with righteousness procs.
Did anyone said Thunderfury,

8:10 The meta in Naxx is warriors with a 2H for most fights for extra threat, so 1% parry would work there.
In solo, 1% parry is good, too. Especially on a Paladin for Parry Haste.
Druids could tank most content, but they couldn't use swords.
1/10: druid weapon
9/10: Hunter weps obviously
I remember getting the Ravager during my first time levelling in WoTLK, I used it for such a long time
6:32 So it's a glowstick that makes it too bright for the enemy to stealth.
In classic vanilla, Warriors are not the only class that can viably tank bosses in raids. DRUIDS in bear form were some of the best threat per second tanks with the on use item found from gnomer called crowd pummeler. This information was not added when talking about your item number 8 weapon typhoon. Some may argue pally tanks were "viable" but was just not a true statement as DPS would have to purposefully hold back to not pull threat.
You didn't mention why the ravager was hated in group play: it broke cc such as sheep or sap.
Except Paladin's are basically top tier 5 man tanks in Vanilla, especially when undead/demon targets are involved. Not to mention they make for passable off tanks in raids for aoeing the trash.
Just because the warriors are the best overall and were the default main raid tank doesn't mean that the other 2 don't exist. There is more to the game than just raiding, especially in vanilla.
Yeah like doing 5 mans all day everyday
"Warriors. And that concludes the list of classes that could tank in Vanilla"
* Skarm has left the chat *
I Have to correct you on that Warrior Tank thing :)
Firstly: You can argue about Paladins but Druids are not only viable but in some nieche situations the better tanks.
Secondly: Highend Warriors would often go dual wield Fury Prot for Extra Thread which allowed more dmg -> faster kill times
No guild would be caught dead with a pally tank because they were such powerful healers. They also didn't have the tools that made them such good tanks moving forward. I do remember hearing about druids being better tanks in niche situations, but I never heard of a guild that had a dedicated bear other than for those specific fights.
@@strongside4565 That's mostly because back in the day, druid bears had no taunt. It wasn't because of their other abilities or anything. Yes ofcourse some tanks fit certain fights better, but the biggest reason was they had no taunt back then. They do now and they're perfectly viable.
@@Sarnatuile Of course they do now. They had taunt as early as Wrath and they were powerful in Wrath, but warrior was he only class that had taunt in vanilla. You just didn't tank with bears unless you were trying to do some sort of unrecognized achievement because they couldn't get threat back if they lost it. Anyone that says any class other than warrior was a good tank is just kidding themselves.
"illegal Severs"
Surprised the Barman Shanker wasn't on this list as the best Rogue weapon even when lvl 60 epics became available. It's speed, at 2 seconds, made it the highest damage dealing dagger for a long time. Right up until you got Perditions Blade from Ragnaros.
And no other dagger had a 2.0 second weapon swing until the Grand Marshals dirk later in Vanilla.
Lobotomizer had 2.0 sec swing no?
And also this was a dagger that was obtainable by literally ANYONE who wanted to have it.
While Grand marshal weapons.. not so much
11:10 you can just use term private server just like normal person.
@Cunt Goblin Just call it illegal how it is. You are same like hippies who cal pirating stuff "shaariiing man". Nobody cares if you do it (well except for the owner of that property i guess) but at least call it what it is.
used to have Ravager as second two handed to trick rogues to disarm“blade storm” and then switch back main two handed to blade storm. fun days.
*cough-has-tanked-every-instance-in-the-game-with-2h-wep-cough*
I had Dark Iron Pulverizer on my warrior, back in vanilla. :) It was such a pain to get!
1. The recipe itself was a drop from a boss with a random chance to spawn in BRD. And you had to be a weaponsmith. A weaponsmith had to go out of their way in order to learn how to make this weapon.
2. 18 dark iron bars, each smelted from 8 ore... You could only smelt the ore at a forge in BRD.
3. Like all Dark Iron recipes, you could only smith it at a special anvil in BRD.
All of this is for a lvl 50 blue item. Whose only shtick is a long stun. AND you get a badass polearm at lvl 51 from doing a quest in AV, anyway... AND a lvl 43 blue axe is better...
And it's also thanks to these "less than legal servers" we now get Classic so let's remove the stigma surrounding them.
Still illegal mate.

Also, no mention of Silent Fang? While it was hard to use in PVP due to it being a high speed mainhand, it made for a solid dungeon tanking weapon, and was used by some death knight in pvp 2 expansions later, resulting in a quick nerf.
WHERE IS MUH [Thunderfury, Blessed Blade of the Windseeker]??!??!?!
Actually warriors can 2h tank well while levelling if you don't pull big each time. Probably better option for fast dungeon runs, smaller pulls but faster killing

If you put some thought into it they are bis for quite a while in long fights
The proc adds so much potential to the hunter as they stagnate before naxx
I had Ravager as a hunter in classic.
Note that the Manual crowed pummler was actually viable for rogues to since their main attacks if they went combat or assassination was speed/agility based, so basically they would use a dagger in a off hand and used the mace for their main hand since the 50% extra attack speed was essentially 50% more agility right off the bat, this does not mean it's the best in slot item for rogues but it was up there for good dps output during their first raids since they could switch it out after with a sword or dagger and continue fighting just with the extra 50% attack speed for 30 seconds it was pretty much viable for any class that needed that agility boost.
The fist weapon combo from ZG that turns you into a Tiger...
I still have the set in my bank. During Cata especially, I would often use them on the training dummies in Stormwind and instantly get whispers about what the tiger thing was whenever it procced. I'd just play dumb and say I didn't see any tigers.
The proc lasted long enough that you could run around with it like a crazy person to really get people confused.

its such a weird collectable these days but back in the day it was also weird if I remember correctly.
it was a mid-level green that gave +7 to all resistances and dropped only from one rare mob in stranglethorn.

you would have to include the 2 handed axe that transformed you into a metalhead undead that would break into a heavy metal guitar solo. Was only available from a certain boss during the halloween event and only in karazan. Now that the instance has been modified it's no longer is available. It was a 2 hander for hunters for stats but was fun to break into the guitar solo. I would also add the "letter opener" which at the time was a must for rogues as it had the fasted attack speed in the game.
