Meanwhile in Classic, seeing someone in tier 3, whatever. Seeing someone in tier 0.5 omfg mad respect.
lol true
+
It's probably harder to get 0.5 lol
holy shit this is the most ridiculous quest chain i have ever seen in mmo.. good job covering this holy
Serpienta Anterrková nah, it was good for players that where not raiding
laughts in Scarab lord
You haven't seen ridiculous quest chains lol. So many ridiculously long quest chains in vanilla.
This quest is the reason I never had an epic mount.
I did this quest chain on my paladin in BC and early wrath. It was simple since I can solo everything but it still took forever. Glad I did since you can't get the gear anymore.
This was hands down the greatest experience I've had in all of World of Warcraft. As part of a social 5 man guild that just about got ZG done by the end, this was our end game content. The Baron 45 run was infamous and they even tried to recreate it in Shattered Halls.
Your content is seriously amazing.
I remember these quests when I played retail vanilla, the items were really cool but the quests were so expensive to do. I only managed to get the bracers, gloves and belt (Feralheart set) but I was superproud of those items :)
I have 8/8 feralheart and still use today as xmog
@@Muilisxx ok
I did the entire quest chain!.. But i never got the helm to drop so i had the last turn in haging in my log untill super late TBC.
My shaman only managed to get 3 pieces as well because I was too broke to do the whole chain. With my warlock I didn't bother because I had my T1 on him.
Me and buddies did it back in classic cause we didn't like 40 man raids. There was about 7 of us that committed ourselves to the quest. It was an amazing adventure and took us probably close to 3 months to complete because we all backtracked to help each other. The bonds that we formed lasted for years until we all realized everything after litch king sucked, still in contact with 2 of the guys. Defenitly my fondest memory of wow, nothing comes close. I would never do it again lol! I very much regret selling off the set when bc launched😧
Although I've been playing WoW since the day BC launched, I had no idea this quest chain existed. Once classic drops I'm unlikely to be a serious raider due to time constraints, so knowing I can get a set like this has been really helpful, thank you.
The hardest thing with these bosses in this chain was that noone, and I mean NOONE else but you had any knowledge of what was going on or what the mechanics was. So it was a big part of the quest to gather a proper crew with the skills and intelligence to absorb your explanation of the fight and actually execute on the laid out plan.
For sure. I remember the final bossfight in UBRS - a damned hard 3-phase fight that basically nobody is familiar with and even trying to find info about it was a friggin' challenge. Then he wipes you out and half your group isn't even clear why they're fighting this boss...
@@51gunner Yep! I came equipped (after having read up on the fight) and gave everyone a shadow-protection potion before the fight. We wiped once but got it the second time.
I love really long and detailed questlines. Real adventures.Can't wait for classix
Not coming out til aq 40. You won't do this unless you're a masochist..
@01000001 00101110 01001001 00101110 yeah a smol little casual that has something like 300+ golds to spend
01000001 00101110 01001001 00101110 that’s me
ran into gnome mage with the brazier,not sure how we met or what sparked our conversation,but it went something like this,i think i was questing in kalimdor,and a mage whispered me,and iwas on a low level alt,he took me to dire maul,and we summoned isalien(it took a few tries,but he insisted that we didn't leave until i got the piece of loot i could use),at the the time i had no idea how rare this encounter was or how people still had the brazier after the cata changes,note that this was from the perspective of a player that started late in tbc,so i had vague idea that these types of bosses and loots were leftovers from a old quest,but this video came full circle and it clicked all together,thank you for sharing this video it means more to me than you know.( i really wish i remembered that gnomes name they were a really nice person,it almost felt like a nostalgic adventure killing isalien after all these years)

It's so cool all these quest chains in vanilla. There just feels like there is always so much to do
This is my plan for when the classic server is released. I don't want to have to raid on a set schedule again, so instead I'm going to aspire to get my full T2 dungeon set. Awesome videos MadSeason, thanks so much for making these!
This is phase 5 content.
in todays wow this would be a legendary questchain lul
In today's wow there'd be a lot of anger and uproar about something being behind a quest like this lol
dand why And you'd get ported to the front door of each step
and obviously it would be all soloable.. we can't let players group up after all... what if they talk to each other, it would be terrifying experience for them.
@@Riverfall_ Doesnt really explain why multiple questchains in both BFA and Legion led to various dungons then
@@MyLittleYeti You think there wasn't any uproar about it back in the day ? At best people didn't complain because they didn't know any better, but this sure was way too much of a bother for what it was.
Man your videos are always so peaceful. Makes me feel so calm, thanks for all the content!
Conclusion of dungeon set 2!
Ah the memories! I remember all these quests. Ran these many times helping others with these quests.
Hello MadSeason, I'm currently binge watching your vids in preparation for launch of classic. I've played warrior in vanilla and this brings back memories :) btw your voice is so calming and soothing. Keep up the good work. I really enjoy your videos.
Hey I got another recommendation for an episode. You can do one about some of the long quest chains in vanilla, the ones that sent you all over the world (Not attunement/weapons/event related).
Like the quest chain for the Blasted Lands elite demon boss (A really epic quest, don't see those in WoW anymore), the alliance quest chain to find out about the missing king, the quest chain with Tirion Fording, and many more.
I just love to listen to your videos. It’s a bit melancholy and the music is so retro.Also your voice is so interesting.👍
I appreciate it...glad you like them!
That fake ending really got me, lol.
These two videos have my nostalgia running hot. I actually finished this chain. The ordeal was a memory and experience unto itself. Like many accomplishments in classic wow, wearing the set was a point of pride because I knew that everybody else knew that this chain was no joke.
THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST VIDEOS ON THE INTERNET
Man, now that I'm looking at it, early WoW could've been a blacksmith business with all the chains it made you do.
Last week I decided to be your patron . Because you deserve it.! Your vids are really good man ty
Imagine going all the way to Lord Valthalak, killing him, dragging your amulet onto him and accidentally destroying it...
Man these vids really throws me back and make me realise how much wow has changed. Would I do this all over again? No! Still it does put retail wow in perspective, its no longer the same game really.
I started late vanilla and had no idea it was a thing until SOD. Now some of our BIS is 0.5 gear, so we're doing this crazy chain. Thanks for the guide!
I remember going through this on my alt back in the day. Including the around 50 stratholme runs to get my tier 0 pants. I made an agreement with a guildie of mine that we would help each other complete our sets. It was a blast, and it was awesome to get a refresher on the whole process of obtaining it. That being said great video! Stumbling across this channel has been a great experience!
What an absurd quest chain! My eyes glaze over just listening to this. Obviously this is the first thing I have to do in classic, even if I do nothing else. I got the first two parts of this on my mage originally, but never the last part. It was mega expensive and super confusing at the same time. Not my favorite combination of things for something to be at the time obviously, and I just gave up. Will definitely be returning to this particular video shortly.
I remember the runaround from the stupid goblin very well though, so I definitely got that far into this craziness. I basically said exactly what you said in this video "You couldn't have told me about this when I was leaving to get the ash earlier!?!" What an ashhole is just right.
Did not get to actually see 50% of these before so was very neat to see thank you.
Lovely memories. On my Troll Priest, I did some raiding, through Molten Core at least. It was nothing compared to the enjoyment of embarking on this quest chain, and finally got the full Virtuous set, which was just beautiful in combination with Benediction. Loved doing 5mans with random new people, with a mission that very few others shared.

But the soundtrack of the Gwyn fight is awesome :D
Dude every vídeo a new master piece. 1 love ,keep up
I think what made special these quests is that they made you travel from one corner of a continent to the opposite corner of the opposite continent, expend time and effort there (like a campaign, with it's own adventures) and feel some kind of relief once you were able to come back "home". Traveling was difficult back then (at least harder), so you were very likely to meet new people while doing so. Also, getting to the new place and getting whatever you were sent to find wasn't that easy, because as we can see in your video, once you get there, you're asked to do multiple tasks before getting whatever you were sent to find in the first place.
To be fair even regular questlines would ask you to do that. The Legend of Stalvan Mistmantle had you treking all over Eastern Kingdoms, forging the lightforged rod...it felt like an actual..well...quest...
Ever since Hayven passed away I have been watching you and you make your videos so interesting and informational! Keep up the good work!
While a little grindy, this is a good example of content that casuals that aren't able to raid can tackle to get some gear of their own, rather then just a watered down version of the latest raid (LFR).
they need more of these kind of quest. Not easy but mostly soloable quest that get you decent gear.
But... WoW was aimed at casual players from the very beginning, blizzard themselves said it
I love the addition of the Zelda theme at the end! Great videos man
I love the part with “which are solo-able if you got the right class and gear” when you keep in mind that whole reason to do it was to get decent gear in the first place...
In WoW Classic, which I still love and play nearly every day, I completed the grind for my rogue Tire 0.5 set. Yes, it was challenging, but it was a great feeling to finally complete and turn in the last quest for my helm and chest pieces. The Darkmantle set is is seriously good for rogues, and some argue that the full set is BIS… period. I have no plans to replace it, only things like my weapons, trinkets, etc. When I show up in 40-man raids, I still get compliments and /salutes. Every rogue and his mom and dog seems to have one of the rogue tier sets, but very few have the full Darkmantle set, so it tends to stand out. Very cool.
Thank for making these videos, between your guides and a multiboxer guildie helping out this chain wasn't too painful for me.
I had so much fun doing these back in Vanilla. I finished it on my Priest the day before Burning Crusade launched. Baron 45 was still one of the more epic moments in Vanilla for me.
I was so proud of the time we completed Baron 45, with a group of friends, very well coordinated, but fast pulls, multiple people with tanking and healing possible for some parallel pulls for patrols (for example, while the main tank, a fury warrior was taking care of a group of ghouls, our retri pala pulled the patrolling gargoyle), and a truly epic intense final bossfight just 2 minutes before the timer was out.
Have fun in classic y'all. Nice vid man .
Back in 2009 i was playing WoW in a private server named Valhalla WoW that started at the TBC then upgraded to the LK expansion. I was always a Classic Junkie since the first time i played WoW was in a Private Classic server and i just loved everything about the classic mobs and dungeons.
Came to the point i stumbled onto the NPC giving the Tier 0.5 quest and then i went to farm the whole armor set to do the quest chain and completed it! I was the only player in the server that owned the Sulfuras, Thunderfury and Tier 0.5 Set.
this quest is releasing tomorrow, thank you for the timeless guide @madseason. hope your rank 14 grind is going well!
When classic servers come to online these videos will be so much important for many people who dont know things like this.. great content which must be seen and you dude deserve more subs 🤘🤘
I was about to get so sad... Was like "what?! MadSeason is gone already???" But you pranked me and I was relieved af.
When the ending popped up early l legit thought my RUclips app was busted and restarted it. You got me good!
Love your videos man! always look forward to them!
Hey, I have never watched your vids but you are really calm and it is really nice to listen to your stuff. Thank you for not being the overreacting youtuber!
I never knew about most of these extra bosses just from a long chain for some upgraded dungeon sets. It is very cool that all of these areas that seemed useless at first sight had some pretty epic quest chains linked to them, wish I could have experienced them when I first played.
It was nice to have someone in the group with the brazier. An extra boss with some cool loot =)
Got the Virtuous Set completed yesterday. Definetly an amazing questline and worth it for the experience!
just wanted to say your music choices are always top on your vids!
Dude love you, and love your music selection.
100% gonna do this when classic servers hit.
what's messed up is, you could probably just kill a few mc bosses as a fresh 60 (with grinding the attunement asap) and still get yourself better loot while saving you way more time and 1,000s of gold.
Yeah but gear is not my end goal here. its a nice bonus but I just wanna do every sing;e quest in classic.
You mean when 1.10 drops? That’s after AQ. Have fun waiting a year after release to even see the NPC that gives the quest
its starting at 1.12
@@NorthzYT or just be a tank and get full t1 in a month
I feel like Blizz wanted this to be the “quester’s endgame”. For those who mainly just did pvp and world content, some epic adventure they could do go on at max level, what do you think mad?
Like he said in part one, the epic end game for the people that didn't raid
i found this entertaining and educational. you should teach kids at school about vanilla wow
Quality content MadSeason, brings me all the memories I had back in the day ❤️
Love your calm and mellow voice.
lol the tease and that toon name lol so much run around and dedication.
I remember doing this chain at the end of classic. I had a ton of help from my friends on our server along the way and even recruited a couple of DPS who were in our server's naxx guild to help us with the valthalak fight. What an epic feeling! As a "non raiding player" thank you to Macabre from Mannoroth US who allowed me to get both benediction and the tier .5 armor set as someone who's guild was only big enough to do ZG and AQ20!
This is some serious research right there! Love your channel, mate)
Still don't understand who would prefer this over the ZG pug : /
That's true end game content
Hey man, keep up the good work, love your stuff
I appreciate it...thanks man!
For a damn second i thought video was over i WAS TRIGGERD because you rarely upload but your videos are really fun to watch man please upload more ._.
Best WoW RUclipsr, thanks for all the amazing videos
I got 3 of the pieces of Darkmantle on my rogue (in Vanilla) and then gave up! I actually had a lot of gold back then (sold a lot of raiders resist gear and enchants), but I didn't really have many friends or guild members that were good enough to clear all the dungeons/bosses lol. My rogue still sits at level 60 with some of her old gear and relics of the past. I love watching your videos! Thanks for all your research and hard work!
Love the videos and music. Keep it up man. That fake out had me rolling
People that haven’t played classic are not prepared for classic servers
how to spot vanilla players. you don't have to, they will always tell you
Why Not? Classic was never the hardest or most time consuming compared to some other MMORPGs
I never played classic back then. I'm playing it on a private server now and love it.
@@@Trendydwarf Most MMORPGs didn't have quests, so it was a different kind of hard. But compared to current, vanilla is massively hardcore. Saying that people who haven't played classic aren't prepared for it is definitely accurate. Like those thousands and thousands of zebras in the Barrens who managed to walk around without hooves. They should all have hooves! Why the fuck don't they all have hooves? I quit, because this game is stupid!
I can't wait...
@@politicallycorrectredskin796 or all the raptors who are alive without hearts
I don’t know about the other classes but the Soulforge armor was the absolute best you could get until T2 for Prot/Ret pallies. And if you didn’t want to heal in the raid it was the best you could get period.
Vanilla has the craziest quest content. This set reminds me of scepter of shifting sands questline.
This is an excellent chain, but I don't know why anyone would bother if it's all so expensive and the rewards are inferior to tier 1. I guess it's all just group content, not raid content, so if you're 100% against forming a raid, then I guess this chain is for you.
I hope we see this chain as early as phase one, but since parts of it take place in later-phase dungeons like Dire Maul, I guess we won't.
Got my full Darkmantle set back in the day because my guild initially was too small to run 40 mans so I wanted to still have a sick set to show off my prowess as a rogue. What was awesome was once I was raiding, I was out dpsing many other rogue wearing most of their nightslayer set pieces. The Darkmantle chest piece was so good that I didn't change it until I had my 4 piece set bonus for Nightslayer. It was definitely a legit set and was sexy as hell, if I must say so myself. Lol.
Just got to the cinders part myself and gee whiz I still have got quite a while 😂 excellent video
Imagine working so hard to get that set and then TBC gets announced, blizz should've come up with a better model than making the previous expansion irrelevant honestly
This is a great video, watch this so you never have to do it
Love every video you make.
In the context of these sets being *specifically* for players who are content with doing Dungeons and staying on that level, and never to Raiders in the first place, this is actually a fantastically designed, albeit expensive, chain of quests.
It may sound daunting to have to travel around the world and run all these dungeons but seeing as this was the top content for this portion of the playerbase, it no doubt made them feel like Blizzard felt they were important.
The world was so small, but compared to now, it was harder to travel from place to place so this whole questchain really felt like an epic journey and people who were content with doing Dungeons instead of Raid felt like their playstyle still mattered, and honestly, seeing someone with full D2 sets were still cool since you'd know how much work it took.
Holy shit. After all these years I thought I had a few pieces of tier .5 but it turns out I think they're tier 0!
to all who finds the t0.5 crap: it was never about he stats, it was about the adventure. one of the best questchains ever. something some people never understands.... I have my set done, and it's more worth than every other tier in the game.
I don't even read quest text. Blizzard has the worst story writers.
So thats probalby why u don't get shit together in this game.
All the good writers left by wrath of the lich king some left before burning crusade a bunch left after burning crusade and they had third world writers after wrath
Yeh you got it! My 13 year old brain did not care at all about the stats, this was just the next step in my quest for greatness :D
@@basillah7650 So that explains why before Wrath, chracters were just made evil and usually insulted there Warcraft 3 Counterparts
Cant get enough of these vids madseason keep them coming! :)
Thanks for watching them Kasper!
thank you for this madseason, great content as always
I had 6/8 on my Priest on Nost before it shut down. I also had the T0 head. Only the chest was missing. Good God I was so proud of that gear.
And if you watched it for nostalgia.
I hope you had some flashbacks.
i remember fighting those bosses to help people, man it was a fun time
This is how a quest should be done.
Because once you finish it, you not only have a Set to wear as prove that you did it, no! Even after completing it, you still have a special item that makes you someone of great import.
Being able to summon 5 Unique bosses because you finished an expensive, long and dificult questchain is a reward in of itself.
Not only that: it is an adventure. You don't just go into a raid and kill a boss you kill anyways for an item *COUGH COUGH* Emerald Nightmare *COUGH COUGH*
You crawl through dungons and defeat bosses specifically for YOU. Because you earned it.
I remember doing this as an alliance Priest (Ted) on Shadowsong EU, we had a great 5 man team (from Ancarim Iron Legion) who always played together. To be honest, I remember the timed Strat run to be the hardest part. There was no time for any sort of mistake. One time we got to Rivendare's room just as he killed her, we were gutted.
And here I thought hunting down a recipe for the vial of sands was time consuming; I sit firmly corrected.
I was a casual in vanilla and I got stuck on the 45 min Barron run. It was very challenging for a pug group
the rogue 4/8 D2 set bonus before blizz nerfed it paired with the T3 set bonus was essentially unlimited energy.
Also the gloves for the D2 mage set, boots from the D2 warrior, and entire D2 priest set were highly sought after.
Awesome work man. Keep it up.
The extent of how outrageous these quests got were kinda ridiculous. That and the BC keying was where Blizz I think kinda went buckwild on making stupidly long chains and all of that armor isnt even epic. Back in Vanilla it wasn't a big deal but Blizz really should've made it full epic
This is the kinda stuff that made this game so great
Ring ring ring ring ring ring ring.... Bananna Preist! (Boop booba doba boop)
Did the whole chain on my priest way back when. All the way up to the last boss Valthalak. Then blizzard decided LFG channel was too effective at forming groups and chopped it in 1.12 I think. I was pretty pissed. Valthalak was stupid hard to get a group for. On top of that, I worked night shift in those days. Meaning i could only play in the mornings. Needless to say, I never did get the chest slot. Still have all the quest items though.
I remember having to solo most of the group content they sent me on. Mostly I'd mind control the elites and make them beat each other to a pulp. Then polish off the survivor as best i could.
My 45min strath run was the stuff of legends. A well oiled mechine that was largely being driven by an over powered tank. Even with that advantage we all had to be on point. Got there with a minute and thirty to spare. Since I couldn't raid, this my proudest accomplishment as a healer in Classic.
At least I was able to complete the look when darkmoon started selling the appearances.
Hi there, thanks for the upload Mr Mad.
that really takes me back. Didn't do all of them, but i did several in Vanilla and BC. Have you done a vid on some of the other crazy-long quests chains in vanilla like the Lost hero of the Horde that starts and ends in the Blasted Lands? There was another chain started by captive dragon UBRS (I think) that had you going all over hell and and back - I remember it included one quest that had you hopping up the side of a mountain in Winterspring and getting booted all the way to the plaguelands in the eastern kingdoms. I think Chromie was involved in that one...or she her own quest that had you running allover the place, too
It's funny because I've helped some people do parts of that old Quest but like 10 years ago. I started playing wow almost exactly when burning Crusade came out. I group 10 helps these guys and one of the things we needed to do was drop that battle standard in the middle of the arena in Blackrock Mountain
Wow this seems so awesome. I had long ago obtained Tier2 or higher so I didn't really bother much with this set. I have couple pieces on my alt and couple pieces on my main, I guess those that didn't require to spend any money since I didn't want to put out 200g for something I wouldn't wear.
Anyways this seems like a nice ending for the solo / small group player who doesn't go to the raiding much. Very very long chain that you can spend your time with before the end of the Classic and get the "best" pre-raid stuff on.
Love when you pop up on my list !
I'm kicking myself the longer I watch this little series.. my druid has the set complete and I'm fairly sure I tossed them years ago.. T-T
Should have waited for 7.0.1 xD
