Moocluck and I are having a little competition over whose shirt looks cooler. What do you think?
TEAM MOOCLUCK: tinyurl.com/3rm59958
TEAM NIXXIOM: tinyurl.com/5974k2zc
Definitely Nixxiom because DK's always look epic!
Can’t wait to see the Druid, hunter, and warrior shirts! Warrior shirt would look cool if it referenced asmongold somehow, although a skinny bald warrior might not feel right. And a suggestion for if you do a hunter shirt, the most popular hunter pets (Skoll, Loque’nahak, and Thok the Bloodthirsty) would be a dream come true to see on there, and I would pay extra for that!
16 is not a surprise at all since the original trait was to boost sword damage.
Yours all the way m8, knight wins every time
Aww cmon... It's like asking a child if he loves mom or dad better
Sad that you had to use clickbait and didn't bring up that fact used in the thumbnail.
Seriously. Surprising from Nixxiom.
That's youtube in a nutshell now. Just garbage tier content for engagement bait.
Lol sad to be you
@@everettjohnson9374 lol no u (got 'em)
It was true though. She did sell herself for epic flying.
Not sure if they removed it, but gnoll tents used to have human faces sewn into them.
If you fly behind Mulgore (towards Feralas) you can find a little hut in between the mountains. There’s also a giant maze of thorns.
In Feralas lake (northwest feralas) there’s a spa being run by goblins.
If you can glitch behind strathholme then you’ll find a small green pasture that’s instanced to Quel’thalas
You can glitch behind deepholme to find a lot of testing areas for textures. Druids are the only ones able to fly there.
Worgen can teleport out of their starting zone by running to a specific spot on the edge of the map, deleting their hearthstones, and clicking teleport to graveyard.
In Azuna (broken isles) there’s a unicorn NPC you can kill named Charlie. You can in fact loot his kidney.
Before they covered it you could glitch into the Sinner’s Room underneath Kharazan. There were a lot of bone piles. (I know this one was mentioned but it deserves another mention :D )
If you sit with a kitten pet out and do /sit on them, they will sit in your lap!
There is a lady in The Culling of Stratholme who sells bouquets and you can buy them if you talk to her before Arthas goes nuts.
This is all I could think of for now. I know a lot of these are common knowledge, but if you didn’t know then there’s some fun lil tidbits for yah!
Very cool! Thanks for sharing!
regarding the gnoll tents with human faces, from what I remember they're still there in retail!
the worgen teleporting glitch I think was fixed though
😮😮😮❤
@@NerdzTM Actually I think Game Uncrafter did it a few weeks ago so it's still possible. :) He does a lot of out of bounds glitches.
@@Knight-of-Sarcasm ohh okay! Ty for the insight :)
Paris Hilton can be found at the inn in Shattrath city where she sells stuff including the "Gigantique" Bag which I believe has an achievement tied to it. Also, Henry Cavill in an interview said that when was first called with notification that he got the Superman part, he didn't answer the phone because he was raiding in WOW.
There was an incident where briefly Horde and Alliance were able to talk to each other. The trashtalk and insults got so bad, the game was shut down until they got it patched back to normal.
when was that? I don't remember that
@@matttx It was from before I started playing, so somewhere around 2005-2008. It might've been something glitched with a patch and no one noticed until someone asked in trade chat where a particular vendor was and the answer wasn't in the faction of the asker. I don't know if it was all the servers or just a few, but it was probably the fastest a hotfix was pushed through.
I remember I was in the Storm fury event and this Blood elf warlock was constantly talking to me. I obviously couldn't understand her and she was acting as if I could.
I think some people are either trolling or confused about the Horde/ Alliance chat with all the new fusing going on.
Not to mention the characters only choose to talk in their opposing tongue in cinematics
Wasn’t their ability to talk to each other through the /me emote? That was back at or before TBC.
@CaseyCrouse24 yeah your right! They removed that sadly.. I think the potion is still usable though
If you /salute a stormwind guard it will salute back. If you make a macro and spam it, it will make it impossible for the guards to attack you. The more you know :D
i think u can spam only 3 emotes at a time no?
@@infinitecorruptor2695 you have to target the guard and /salute they stop and stand there to complete the salute animation for 2 or 3 seconds. But you have to target each guard that gets close to you which might be more than 3 a second but at that point your probably dead lol
There was a legendary necklace named "Talisman of Binding Shard", that was looted by a player named Noktyn. It was said to never be intended to drop on the loot table!
Bonus: A shirt named "Martin Fury", which could kill everything within a certain range was accidentally given to a played named Karatechop, who used the shirt to clear Ulduar 10-man with a group and everyone in that run was banned for cheating. Since the original version, Martin Fury now kills the caster rather than everything in a certain range!
Banning a player for their Blizz's own mistakes is fucking retarded. They could have just removed achievements and loot from the accounts but instead Blizz decided to blame the players for Blizz's own errors. Real professional.
My all-time favorite WoW easter egg will always be the Pandaren NPC named Adele who can be seen flipping/rolling over and over to move. She's located in The Widening Deep in Pandaria. This, of course, is referencing one of Adele's first hits, "Rolling in the Deep". I found her by complete accident one day while herbing and I lost my mind xD That was way back during MoP and nobody ever talks about it or knows what I'm talking about when I say it lol. Blizzard definitely is nowhere near perfect, but damn...they can put in these very small, but awesome tid-bits that just make me want to explore every inch of the game!
He played for 22 days straight, without a break. Well, with his sacrifice, we now know to stop at 21 days and take a fifteen.
Fact 101, moocluck needs more episodes.
not gonna lie, I actually loved the underwater zone they made, it was so unique and different I thought it was great fun
Same, i don’t get the hate for,it, i thought it was really fun
I have levelled many an alt through Vash’jir. It’s usually quiet with no other players around.
@@danielemarie439people hate change. Look how many people still think we should have 4 buttons like classic.
@@t.ydunston2251or maybe, just maybe it happened to be super slow and clunky area to navigate and fight in? Even to this day fighting in water is just pain in the ass. But sure, lets blame the "old" crowd before thinking logically.
Btw no one liked vanilla because of 4 buttons. They liked vanilla because of community.
@@vasilije94 you really need to learn to talk to people. You one of those “keyboard warriors” I see.
#101: Arthas did nothing wrong
how dare you say something so controversial, yet so right
Yes he just killed thousand and thousands of innocents but it's ok
agreed
I love these type of videos and I actually did not know a decent amount of these surprisingly, even after nerding out on weird or unknown parts of wow for a decade. Glad Moocluck is narrating it too
I played WoW about four months after release until about two years ago. This video brought me some strong nostalgia vibes. Thanks for making it.
In Dragonflight, if you go to the Dragonscale Expedition camp, just outside the camp is Fiona and her caravan friends. Loved that little bit of nostalgia.
Fact: there's a secret quest in Westfall that makes you cluck at a chicken, and bring it some special feed, to get it as a pet.
Early in world of Warcraft there was a brief time when hunters could tame druids while they were in one of their animal forms.
wow thats sum i didn’t know thats crazy n cool to think bout
There also was a necklace in shadowlands that made anyone able to tame a druid in his forms and even shamans in spirit wolf
There was a long time during Wotlk too where the white worgen boss that's spawns during the stuffed beasts boss in Utgarde Pinnacle could be tamed.
Got fixed a while before worgens was announced as playable in the next expansion if i remember correctly, and replaced with a white wolf for the hunters that had tamed it.
thats hilarious
When you mentioned the youth from Make-A-Wish, you didn't include that they let him see The Eye/Tempest Keep prior to release and then gave his WoW toon the Ashes before any one else had even had a try to get the drop. Each time I fly my Ashes mount, I think of him.
that made me cry, omfg. And i hate that mount so much :,(
It just makes me remember getting it on my second attempt while everyone else I know tried at least 10-100 times and one guy did the raid once a week for 4 years until he got it. I swing by and do it twice and get it before him. That's what I think of rather than some random kid I don't give a shit about.
@@GLUFSAREN I got it on my first. I NEVER wanted it and I hate it.
Fun fact: it was the same kid who had the chance to create the merciless hunter pvp gear (if I'm not mistaken)
@@GLUFSAREN Well the kid did pass from the disease so he is one of several people in WoW that I think of often. Hayven is another. I still want to have the developers create a memorial in game for him--he did so much for the WoW players' community.
So no one sold their body like the thumbnail implied? I figured it would be click bait adjacent, but pure click bait? Or did I miss it?
When you equip the "Eye of Divinity" you can see Ricole Nichie next to Haris Pilton in the inn in Shattrath :)
Captain Placeholder was added when blizzard broke the boats, not before they had boats.
I love that after all these years, "garrosh did nothing wrong" is still remembered.
Lok'Tar Ogar
The person who's getting max level in the Panda starting zone with only herbs, is still doing it to this day
I think a melee priest would be awesome, especially lore wise
While I agree, it would clash to much with Paladin. I can see it made to work but would the feeling be right? Difficult to say.
My biggest character wish is a gnome paladin.
I am a former WOW GM. There are a lot of hidden and not so hidden memorials in WoW. Even one under the gates of SW.
Ah yes.
My favorite warlock is back.
Thank you Moocluck
Surprised you didn't mention Lunastar's Bengal tiger mount and her hidden questline for the pet that was also a Make-A-Wish.
Imagine running for politics, your opponent tries to do a smear campaign against you specifically because you play WoW and it backfiring and helps you win.
WoW truly is a magical game.
Number 44. My dad used to play WoW and was even a guild master. He met up with a few other WoW players who were in their 50s-60s. Also both my uncles play as well and they’re over 50. My uncle was the one who got me into WoW back in 2006. I was in middle school playing WoW 😂
I"m over 55 and game with my dad who is over 80 regularly. Been playing for nearly 20 years now.
biggest lie ever told about wow:its a kids game
Im 51 now, and still play. I was 32 when the game came out.
That's cool. I'm 66 now, been playing since 08 (Burning Crusade). Everyone in the guild I was in called me Granny Ruby (character: Rubyrose). I'm still playing and most of my alts have Ruby, Rose, or another gem/flower name.
I knew literally all of these things...what have I done with my life?
Least addicted wow player
there were a couple i didnt know but the only one i REALLY liked was that addon tongues for learning other languages
lol I actually was the go-to guy for my classic WoW rp guild for that addon because I had the version that was retro-fitted for classic. and I used it for my silly bug infested undead that spoke nerubian. Good times@@danielschander6586
I wish this video never ended.
Heres a fact. There is some one who looted a legendary necklace in molten core back in vanilla wow.
Eye of Sulfuras?
@@powernerdpro2064No, I believe the item was called Talisman of binding shard. Only 1 player looted it before it was removed from the game (he got to keep it though), and it probably had to do something with the Thunderfury questline before it was replaced with the Bindings of the windseeker.
@@brentf6747 Oh, THAT necklace!
Talisman of Binding Shard
One of the cool things I discovered was that Newmands Landing was the only place you could fly on Azeroth before Cataclysm. If you had a warlock summon you from the outlands while you were on your flying mount you could fly around the small area, but would get dismounted (I think...its been a while) if you went anywhere else.
Before _The Burning Crusade_ released: Only Alliance Players could be Paladins and only Horde Players could be Shamans. And before _Cataclysm_ released: Only Night Elves and Tauren could be Druids.
Teebu's Blazing Longsword is the most iconic Epic-level Sword in the game due to its name and appearance being shown on the Vanilla videogame box. In _Battle for Azeroth_ Blizzard created an updated version of the sword called Teebu's Scorching Straight Sword.
The majority of the Playable Races available in the game are either descended from Trolls or are connected to the Titans in some way or another, with the only actual exceptions being the Tauren, Highmountain Tauren, and Pandaren.
In the _Legion_ expansion the Players are through a series of quests available in Suramar are able to ascend the ranks and become the Jarl of a Vrykul Clan known as the Jandvik. This is significantly the ONLY time in the entire games' history so far where the Player is made an actual leader instead of a Faction Commander/General like in WoD, a Faction Representative like in BfA, and a Class Order Hall Leader like in _Legion._
The Hozen were introduced in _Mists of Pandaria_ as having joined The Horde, and within Dazar'Alor Horde Players can see new Horde Recruits storming in through portals including Hozen.
The Alliance technically has the allegiance of two separate groups of Murlocs with the Jinyu actually being highly-evolved Murlocs.
fun fact, there's a goblin vendor on the left side of dun morogh in wrath, that, as far as I could tell, requires glitching out of the map in stormwind to reach, cuz it's on the shore of the ocean, which, if you've ever been to dun morogh, is blocked by mountains.
Nah, at the time you could swim around the water and find that little hut. Its not confirmed, but it was said that that spot is where every new character spawns in before they are teleported to their home town. Though I think this was just Vanilla.
Mooncluck have such an amazing voice
83/100 are facts I knew…give or take a few. Loved the video, always great to hear from Moocluck.
This was so nostalgic, I didn’t realize how long its been since I’ve heard Moocluck’s voice or watched Nixxiom.
Where is the clickbait part? Not watching that
The Warlock is back, MA! MA! The Warlock is back!
Before flying in Azeroth you could reach The Gnomish Airport and get both behind as well as under Stormwind by climbing mountains.
my favorite spot to clip under stormwind was past the Inn and AH in the archway leading to the Mage quarter.
@@sykode that wasn't bad, though I think that was more well-known than the route that went over the mountains and had an amazing view.
The Undercity is probably the best city, lore-wise.
The ambience is such an amazing touch!
Melee Clerics for Priests please!
Elizabeth Weir's and Bill's conversation to distract Bill while Rodney give himself access to Stargate to return to Atlantis in SGA series
so uh, I havent played wow seriously in 5 years and even I knew half of these. still 10/10 video
#101 - The WoW episode from South Park is their most popular/viewed ever.
#102 - The blood plague researches were used to understand how COVID will spread etc
melee priests? Hope they will reconsider that idea some day, sounds pretty cool
sounds like paladin to me, tbh
I remember a friend of mine who became a TH-camr called Panda bought TWO Spectral Tigers, one for both horde and alliance I believe, it must've felt awful when mounts became account bound, though back then it was only like 1-2k.
Back when Molten Core was released, at the time, the in game events had to be tied to an in-game object. For Ragnaros to spawn after Major Domo was killed, it was tied to a rat that sat on a rock pile up in the corner of the room.
I loved the Vashjir underwater zone.
I know almost half as the huge nerd i am. I loved Vashj'ir btw, I think they did a great job with how fast you were there. Plus, people hating on it meant it was always almost empty, contrary to Hyjal, which made it even better for me.
the whole double agent fun fact brought back memories I forgot I had. was leveling a panda, forgot the server and I just saw a level like 106 or 116 running around. got confused then realized who it was lol
101. In WOTLK, in the Dalaran sewers, there are three young turtles talking to a rat. A reference to the ninja turtles.
Still waiting for that necromancer class
Diablo says Hi!
As one of the .5% of older players - and a real woman - I’m feeling… well… chuffed, really.
Now, make dragon races easier, you horrible little kids.
55. Been playing since year 4. We stand united!
We need a guild if there isn't one already. Boomers United!
It really makes me wonder why there are so many males playing females. Is it just because they like watching them run from behind?
I remember the opening of the Dark Portal, the server I was on kept crashing!
I don't think a kid dying from overplaying belongs in such a list, It's not something that should be mentioned so casually.
I wonder what percentage of WoW players are 65 or older?
The Slaughtered Lamb pub in Stormwind is a reference to the same Pub in the movie An American Werewolf in London.
Leeroy Jenkins is, on occasion, even more well known than WoW itself. I've seen his historic and monumental warcry uttered by people who then, as it happened, didn't even know where it came from in the first place.....
if you wave at a guard, in Stormwind, they have to wave back. this is how a lot of people were able to invade Stormwind at lower levels. they would macro /wave to all of the guards they see
Didn't the alliance to horde playerbase ratio skew back in favor of alliance now that x-faction gameplay can be done and most people went dwarf for stoneform? just curious
not only that but Elves and Humans have really good racials nowdays
Rest in Peace Hayven Games
Please, please Blizz. Do a memorial? Perhaps a NPC in the Cathedral?
What I'd do to get a classic wow restoration. Where we get a developed and released version of everything that had planned for vanilla.
I don't know how much of a nerd this makes me but I knew most of these, great video regardless! 😅
As a horde if you had the mace Ironfoe from BRD and it procced, it gave the wearer the buff «Fury of Forgewright». This buff allowed the player to cross faction communicate as the wearer could speak and understand Dwarfish. This being the only way to cross faction communicate was actually against therms of use considering you werent allowed to cross faction communicate 😂
Mindcontrol worked also. You could talk via /me if you mindcontrolled a player from the other faction.
before wtolk when the event were people became ghouls you could actually talk to players from the other faction if they were ghouls as well.
This looks fun! To save me time ill just watch that 🌕 bold dude reacting to this later! So i dont have to watch the same thing twice..
(just kidding, already watched the whole video and gave a thumbs up 👍😂)
P.S. I thought you gonna mention that in Zul Farak dungeon - if you dont kill the NPCs that you free up on top of the troll pyramid, they are going to use hearthstone to get out of there!
Or that the taurens make the "moo" sound if you do the /moo emote (i binded it with the stomp)
Or that if you open the deadmines door using picklock or blacksmithing instead of a blast, and it wont spawn additional NPCs and not alarm the tauren pirate.
0:48 What? An ex raid member sold his acc for 14000 euro in tbc. He had full t3 and atiesh. And I got offered more than 20.000 euro some years later and declined. I also had full t3, gressil, tf etc. - currently I wouldn't even sell my acc for 30.000 euro. The difference is: Not everyone brags about it in a newspage.
Ah blablabla
Just as some feedback, I feel like there's so many cool obscure facts you could cover in a video like this but things like the release date and player count feel like cheap additions.. It feels more like the list needed some filler rather than you trying to show some entertainment. Noone can argue the fact was either functionally a good fact nor was entertaining as it had no jokes surrounding it. Bit dissapointing.
That was GREAT ...just like old times.
Fun fact: in the cataclysm-beta there was a game-breaking bug with the new zone phasing on the Lost Isles trapping players. The quest causing this bug was "It's a Town-In-A-Box". What happened is that the map-cluster which contains the town, that was created by a goblin explosion, didn't phase properly. So when you walked in the cluster meant you could not walk out anymore. The only way to get out was a difficult from the mailbox to a roof and then slide on the other end from this roof.
Undercity was so bloody confusing the first time I went in I had to hearth to leave
Fact: I have the Spectral Tiger, but as a Megabloks character. Yes, there was Warcraft "Lego".
Another one for you if he dosent say it.
You used to be able to swim from Eastern Kingdoms to Kalimdor.
The age data is interesting. where did it come from.
As WoW is old enough now that those demographic many have significantly changed. I mean if it was from 2015 even a 20-25 year old is in their late 20s and early 30s. If it was from 2010 you are into your mid to late 30s now. If it was from 2020 then it is likely accurate... but the info would be useful.
I had that mount in BC. I contacted blizzard after my account was hacked. They moved that mount off of my account. Blizz never helped me get it back. This was way before battle net.
@@meatdepartment69 it’s why I refuse to spend anything outside of monthly fee. Cause if you get jacked, rest assured, they won’t help beyond un-delete services etc. they are the laziest contact group in gaming today.
I even had to ask for a new debit card because I canceled a sub, and it even listed as canceled on battle net. But it kept coming out. A bug? They just kept replying to the ticket, need more info. I had to cancel that card and request a new one to stop charges.
The time u took for this video props :)
Would love a part 2!
101 - Blizzard is still working out how to include the biggest villain in game, Chick Norris.
I sooo wanna do the Running of the Gnomes!
Umm.. Rustam, the kid that died for playing 3 weeks. It clearly states in the article he was playing Defense of the Ancients which is warcraft 3 custom map not world of warcraft...
In canals od Dalaran you can find 4 turtles around the rat.. “Ninja turtles” ? :)
100 Facts About World of Warcraft (that you forgot you've heard 100 times already)
Forgot about Haris Pilton in Shattrath
Warcraft is healing, the cluck is back 🩹⛑️
Fun fact about languages in wow: if you learned Furbolg in Df, then those other fraction peeps who also did it can understand it, thus it can be used as a common language between horde and alliance ;)
I have a bunch of the dc limited figures for wow. They're badass. Even if i don't play wow they're always on display
Fact 101: When I played it in the US, around 10 years ago, you could do /pizza, and order a Pizza Hut pizza right in game. The best part, was it would remember your previous order, so you could be in a raid, and within 2 seconds, order some food.
Sold her body for 5000 gold. Seems like a fair deal.
laughs in ff14
You will never get tired of these videos even if you know most of the facts❤
I remember using my tank/off tank experience as a marketable skill for a job interview and it actually worked
If you poke the eye while in a que for a random dungeon it will change color.
Can't believe you hired Matt Berry to narrate this.
Still have the 3-D printed statue of my main (complete with stand and glass dome) that you could buy back in '07 or '08. Don't know if that company is still around...
The Cranius Presents shoutout is amazing god I love his videos.
The number 8 thing wasn't actually WOW, it was DOTA which is a custom game inside warcraft 3. Nixxiom is a wc3 fan so it's honestly surprising he mixed them up.
You forgot to mention the series of adverts, one of which was with Mr.T and introduced some funny grenades in game.
Melee priests are fairly decent for levelling in vanilla/classic, even if they don't have talents.
Wand until melee swing is off CD, Melee, use instant cast spell of your choosing, wand, repeat.
Best part is that they benefit greatly from AP if you are using dragonslayer
I was wondering what level DoubleAgent made it too. Cool he hit lv 90! I started to do the same thing but gave up about lv 30 lol.
defias pillagers, the most fearsome enemy in WoW
and the hands down worst mob in hardcore
you forgot Hemmet Nesingwary = Ernest Hemingway
