i started Sod 3 weeks ago (New), playing a Paladin with 1 hand and shild. For me is Sod like a new game and i have very fun with it. Yesterday i was hitting lvl 40 :)
I Am member of the light healing the wounded and shocking the wicked but with all the changes , my path of the elements has started. Sod is the way for those who already did classic too many times and need something different.

Shartqueesha the Ret Paladin here, I joined SOD 3 weeks ago, hit 60 2 weeks ago and I'm already BiS with the exception of back and trinket. One shotting people in BGs, clearing AQ 40. The barrier to entry is much lower than in classic and loot is much quicker. Community is alive and shoutout to Arkaviun for pushing us to the open world for PvP and giving us a place to hang out.
I love finding your shorts only to see this video too. And you to just stare the viewer in the face and say "Improve". Love it. I'm happy to be here. Keep at it you legend.
Much love bro.. I was there back in the day.. played since 2004-2005.. still friends with a lot of my guildmates I made back then. We have not played WoW in a long time.. we just don't have the time these days. Maybe we should check it out though. Love the video.
Time to enjoy the game. That's the sole reason I enjoy ESO and Gw2. Gear in those games is lateral, you can come back and still be competitive. Gear makes gameplay changes and isnt about pure stats. Thanks for this video. I am going to give it a shot.
I love your videos but the Legend of the Dragoon soundtrack had me weak for sure. Such great memories for a game that was way ahead of its time. Great content and awesome voice man!
As a fellow introvert i felt that solo alone part. I dig pallys and been maining one since I started 20 years ago. I think I would like playing what looks like a retail pally in vanilla.
Bro, I just need to get r14 and Im good with my paladin. Just need the weapons and Im happy. The Grand Marshal gear looks awsome and the weapons too. But would love to get the Judgement set also.
I've been tempted to jump back into SoD but it just reminded me of a vanilla fun private server where everything is OP and there's no real challenge, if it was more like Turtle WoW where there's tons of extra custom content and talent/skill reworks rather than reused spells from other expansions I'd be all about it. Glad others are enjoying it though, it is fun to see how nutty PvP can be.
Its more challenging than anniversary so I dont get the point. Whats the alternative? I personally loved Season of Mastery, where we had no world buffs and raid bosses got buffed, which really was a challenge. But that had like a population of 1k players going into AQ, if even..
@ I play Anniversary for nostalgia and Turtle WoW for a better Classic+ experience. Like I said at the end of my original comment, if you enjoyed it that’s cool I’m just not a fan of how Blizzard has done Classic+ so far, it just feel gimmicky to me.
Do you have a ret pala pvp guide/ build i love your vids and how you kill them all with the power of the light. Gonna start my first char in sod soon and i always wanted to play pala in classic
You can join the leveling progress in SoD yes, but when you hit 60 what can a fresh player do that? cuz with little gold and no gear and you just wanna keep up with other 60s but you will never ever be invited to A Raid and get gear as a fresh i know the players mindset be overgeared for the content for smooth and easy run, so you has to grind entry level gear for months? I love your shorts tho they are insane :D
You are part responsible for bringing me back to SoD. Quit begging P4. But now my ret is 56. And look forward to log in every time I get game time. Cheer bro. I'm now sub'ed and look forward to more of your content
A lot of low level dungeons still being run in SoD and it at least has more than 5 viable speccs compared to classic. As soon as I reached 60 in anniversary I realized that I don't even want to bother with that lame endgame and changed back to sod
SOD is fun, i played after P1 however getting into groups is a bit hard considering people want geared players for their easy content, e.g: a zg some would expect you to be in BWL gear. joined a real farm group got kicked after scholo because "i wasn't geared enough".....
i need your advice please: with t2.5 out and the 50% dmg buff on crusader strike, do you still play 6xt1 and 2xt2? im trying to figure out what works best overall and planning 2xt2.5, 4xt2 and 2xr13. id love to get your opinion on this. (and what about timeworn?)
but with so much added power, isn't leveling too easy? I like leveling in Vanilla - I like the new spells and viability, especially as a Paladin lover, but it seems it's a little too much?
Chillsteel -shaman here feel the same about sod as you , plenty of stuff to do in sod. A lot of the current wow content creators always talking down on sod and I have had nothing but a good time all of sod.
I think eventually it only makes sense for SoD to be the main WoW game. Look at OSRS, they did it and their modified classic servers are way bigger than RS3
@@Magetastic69 Enjoy half the specs in classic era not even being viable. New Tank/Healer specs, level up raids, and runes are dope. Idk how anyone would prefer to play classic without them? Edit: Maybe you're a Warrior main?
Since mid P2 SoDisaster has been on a downhill trend. It's a powercreep nightmare and falls short of anything a P server can offer. The only good thing I have noticed is it has got rid of a lot of the sort of players who almost ruined Classic in the first place. If they keep the game mode alive and it stops the morons playing Classic, I am all for it.
At the very least SOD is a massive early access/beta for classic+. The more data and feedback they get the better. Plus new raids and dungeons and abilities in the classic world, isn't that classic+ already??
Can you decide if you are an informative WoW-fan that wants to share his passion for SoD - or a dangerous drug selling gang member trying to talk in a cool and dangerous way that impresses and scares 14 year olds?
It's not worth it everyone wants your parses, fully buffed, have to have beaten the raid before won't inv new people. It's easy you don't need any of these things
I quit playing because i was not giving the 10 year anniversary gift that was handed out i paid for 11 years had over 70080 hours game time i told them good buy thats bs when my friend had 2 acounts got 2 of them
i just want also to say that i was hitting lvl 60 with my first char in SOD and i do my best to get my gear but its very very very hard bec they ask me what is my "GS" i mean WTF full t2 grp going MC and asking people for GS?!?!?!? they is very very sad if this is the future of WoW SOD than i see it very black
I only started playing on Christmas day, never played before. Having fun so far, though the rune stuff is a little confusing at first. Took a chat in general to realise it was redundant and I could buy them for a copper piece. Might try the classic as well, though unsure if era or the new ones released, they i think they are the same game
WoW in general is ass, any version of WoW is repeated content…you login and do what? pvp, do dungeons, do dailies, farm gold, farm mats, sell stuff rinse and repeat the same “content”
ewery class feels strong rofl wht a ton of BS just a few ppl going all in on BIS then going One shotting people in BGs yh lot of fun ... just dont bother SOD unless u got a guild to carry and DONT BOTHER PVP (if u bother go shammy,boomkin thats izi way one shot ewryting befor the can do shit. SOD is just burst damage game over not pvp just BIS BIS and a ton of BS
What class are you going to level?

Bro in one minute you summed up and explained everything that I’ve been trying to find out all week so thank you for that great video
Great video Ark! I agree man. SoD is in a great place. It’s as close as we have come to a classic plus. And Phase 7 is going to be awesome.
Your shorts are great and you low-key sound like Ronan the Accuser. Much love, brother.
Yo Arkaviun, really enjoy your content bro. I stopped playing SoD at the end of phase 2 but you definitely persuade me to try it out again
Been enjoying your PVP videos a lot, especially as a 20 year paladin player. But having seen this full one much respect.
Just hit lvl 10 in SOD after watching this
Started back tonight, already feels great again! Still playing fresh for nostalgia, but really excited for phase 7
Much love bro.. I was there back in the day.. played since 2004-2005.. still friends with a lot of my guildmates I made back then. We have not played WoW in a long time.. we just don't have the time these days. Maybe we should check it out though. Love the video.

Pathfinder here, SOD is awesome, you are awesome.
I haven't played in 15 years. I watched a couple of your shorts and laughed my ass off, never been this close to coming back.
Come give it a shot brother, 15 bucks and 30 days of your time. try it out and see if you like it. havn't had this much fun in wow in years
bro i started sod last week and i am in your guild complete by accident, i started sod because of you haha your clips are amazing
@XxAmyers93xX Welcome brother. May the light guide your path
@@arkaviun what realm are you on boss??? I wanna join play again and join the guild!!! Ret pally main here, FOR THE LIGHT!!!

You’re the reason i wana reroll alliance and start a paladin homie. Keep Up the great work. You dominating the PvP sod space 10000%
Couldn't agree more, SoD has been great and looking forward to its future.
Bro, I just need to get r14 and Im good with my paladin. Just need the weapons and Im happy.
The Grand Marshal gear looks awsome and the weapons too.
But would love to get the Judgement set also.
I started to play SoD again.
running a Smitepriest. while it is not optimal, it does work.
You’re very convincing. And I enjoy watching your Pally very much so I believe you have convinced me to join SOD.

I am playing a Ret since P3 and i love it. SoD is pretty nice to play as a casual
Dude, love your fucking battles. Amazing stuff.
SOD seems like the perfected classic paladin we all asked for way back in the day
Do you have a ret pala pvp guide/ build i love your vids and how you kill them all with the power of the light. Gonna start my first char in sod soon and i always wanted to play pala in classic
love the content brotha, keep it up man. you're him
You can join the leveling progress in SoD yes, but when you hit 60 what can a fresh player do that?
cuz with little gold and no gear and you just wanna keep up with other 60s but you will never ever be invited to A Raid and get gear as a fresh i know the players mindset

Hi mate, you plan on a Guide for Phase 6/7?
i can feel the spit of this guys syllables on my skin now, very convinced

no if u have 2 t2,5 you can go rest draconic until u have the 4set of t2,5 (if u play exodin ofc)
Legend of Dragoon music??? :O
i have a ret pally on retail got bored with that and started playing anniversary, but sod looks fun, how would you compare retail ret to sod ret?
its a mix of TBC+Wrath Ret with easier seal twisting and hard hitting Cstrike/DivineStorm + Exor on anything
I feel like I just watched Ice-T circa 1991 sell me on Season of Discovery...
PS subbed, you've got me considering switching from Classic Anniversary to SoD as I would like a little more '+' in my Classic WoW.
Great video, sub earned
but with so much added power, isn't leveling too easy? I like leveling in Vanilla - I like the new spells and viability, especially as a Paladin lover, but it seems it's a little too much?
Do people still do the older raids MC/BWL/ZG or only AQ?
SoD is hands down the best version of Classic so far.

Playing games is not a waste of time if you have fun, recharge your batteries, and doesn t cast a shadow on your normal life
nice video, convinced me to come back, any chance u can make a video on fast leveling or proffesions?
Bro got me thinking about it
What server are you on?
Bring in lambs for the slaughter brotha..... I need to make a video/guide to warrior in sod
Only wish ferals get some love they so squishy atm lmao
ill try it today !
Hell yeah 👍
SoD > Classic Era
You're out of your fkn mind 😂😂😂

Ran with u for a while in ST til my guild fell off
