On caves you missed a BIG thing. I have two harvesters whos main job it is to supply my 9 crafters. the ONLY (gonna repaeat) ONLY time you go INTO A CAVE to harvest. Is when your 5 levels higher. This prevents all the dangers you covered in your video. Mobs should be gray if you can but 5 levels should let you live through anything.
Same, I tried it out forever ago but I don't think I even left the starter area. Going in as a complete noob has been extremely refreshing and honestly the HC aspect is what pulled me to it ( outside of all the content on YT ) Ive been enjoying the hell out of it.
One tip I haven't seen addressed is. Level your defense skill. Let some weak mobs beat on you for a bit so you don't get crushing blowed by something at your level or even under
I never got that one, as in why you need to level it because at least as a priest I get hit so much its always high yet I saw mage and druid go to low levels areas so perhaps my dps is just poor vs theirs :D so I get hit enough times to never need to level it.
@@ErrorGameManiac because if your defense skill is low you'll get hit harder by lower level mobs, priests is a class that just sits there and takes hits cause of how the class rotation works so yeah you don't usually have to worry about it with priest
@ErrorGameManiac the reasoning is priests get hit a lot since they just bubble and tank hits. Mages don't really get hit, locks and hunters don't get hit if they use pets correctly. Priests and melee are the only ones leveling up their defense properly as they level most of the time
First time playing wow was hardcore this spring. I died over and over and over again... every time i died I made it another couple levels. Finally got to 44 after over 400+ hours and about 30 attempts. Stopped playing because other games came out. Such a fun experience and ill likely return for official.
You don't have to tell your pet to stay. If he's attacking, you can run away while he continues to attack where he's at. Once pet despawns, mob resets. To live in a bad situation as a pet class, run early, run fast. It's easy to know your pull went bad, so if it does, run with cheetah instead of fighting. In order for mob to resist fd, he must be in LOS, so if you have to fd, try to run behind something, keeping in mind if a mob can shoot through what you are behind, you are still in LOS.
honestly I was never gonna touch hardcore at all but since I heard that blizzard allows non hardcore characters to transfer out on death to a normal server I might actually wanna try it
It really flips the whole game on it's ass imo. I never knew it was something I wanted, or needed, in WoW, but I honestly don't think I can go back to normal WoW now after playing it. It just feels boring by comparison. Whether that's a downside or not is up to the person to decide lol.
One tip that got my lvl 50 char killed, is that inside a dungeon, if you play a healer ALWAYS keep a max distance from tank, I have a paladin randomly use BoP on himself, while he was on 80% hp, I got the aggro, and me sitting right next to him, got immidiatelly deleted from mobs.
This adds meaning to the game that hasn’t been there in a long time. It reinforces the lesson that If there is no chance of losing then you can’t win either
Doing the same, jumping between zones picking all quests to sort of outlvl the zones. Basically just doing green quests, using a talent spec that's primed for survival and not primarily for most dps. It takes longer with all the traveling and running but I rather run for 5 mins then die.
You're so right about awareness. 2 days ago i died on my 54 hunter exactly because of that. I just finished doing the Jin'thalor quests in hinterlands (horde quests) and I safely hs back to raventusk village. I was so happy that i pulled it off and was casually walking on the beach bragging in my guild of my feats just to get killed by the fucking elite turtle. Never in my life I felt the urge to break my monitor
Ohh man Jin'thalor is hard!!!!! That is so sad, but funny that you were talking and bragging and the turtle got yoU! That sucks. But also how it happens lol. Hopefully you didn't break y our monitor
I have three tips that are closely related to a recent HC death I suffered. 1)Never level in a zone with mobs equal level to you unless you have no other choice. 2)If it comes down to a choice between waiting for mobs to respawn, or pulling two or more, always choose to wait, especially if you're fighting mobs that are equal to your level. 3)If you ignore the first two tips and you find yourself trying to run for your life from a pack of mobs, absolutely do not forget to use one of the dozen or so Target Dummies that you painstakingly made for this exact scenario, you freaking dingus.
changing strafe to A and D is good but maybe consider changing your forward as well. Making forward E and then strafe S and F you then have access the A key as well for keybinding.
@@cococock2418 It is to create more binds not less. It may not be something you want to try which I can understand I just like it to have access to more keys when playing.
Kargoz is my boy. I wouldn't be where I am now if it wasn't for him and i'll be eternally grateful. I've also noticed that literally not one other creator gives him props for it. Makes no sense.
A list of all the mods used here would be helpful instead of scrolling through the video to find the specific bits but overall great video will help me a lot thanks.
I say this with nothing but love for my man crix, but I cracked up when you said you're going for world first warlock and then the first tip you say is 'don't rush on your journey, take it slow' :D I know that was advice for people wanting to survive, not getting world first, but just was funny ^^ Great video, been thinking about giving hc a try now with official, will definitely be watching you stream too! :D gl!
I died at level 20 today in Loch modan to 3 roaming level 20 elites. Everything else was smooth sailing up to that point, so my advice to anyone stumbling on this video is: Zoom out, look around and watch powerful enemies pathing. If you blindly run through a zone you'll get blind-sided like I did. Take things slow, look for where mobs are, where they're headed to and path away from them if you're just trying to get from point A to B. Moving the opposite direction from your objective around mobs taking an additional 10s is better than taking a 2 hours to get back to that point if you die. Some suggestions for classes for complete newbies; Hunters - until level 10 it can be hard, but once you get your pet it becomes way easier, you essentially have 2 party members. Just be careful of their pathing since they can aggro. Warlocks - Same as hunters, but with wands mana cost will be low and your void walker has a built in taunt ability - abuse it. Paladins - Unlike the other two, a pala doesnt have any pets to take aggro, but what they do have is "oh fuck" buttons in the form of two invulnerability bubbles, heals and damage buffs. Druid - Some of the fastest levelling out there because of their beast forms, just be careful you dont overpull or pull mobs too high level. Shaman - Really strong early, but falls off later, their damage is insane early game. Just be careful your totems dont draw aggro as they only disappear when replaced. Rogue - Slow start, but a lot of CC to help you survive once you get them. Priests - A lot of survivability as long as you can manage your mana consumption. Mage - A lot of CC: Polymorph, cone of cold and frost nova. Wands to reduce mana cost and blink allow them to jump away when needed. Top 4 picks; Paladin Druid Warlock Hunter
Got a fire mage to 49 on blood sail bucs. Just never finished it. I’ll go again on official fo sho. Maybe get a Druid or rouge too. Getting pumped! Great vid bud!
If you’re playing a lock, Curse of Recklessness can be your best friend. If your target starts to run away or if you fear something off and you’re worried it’s getting too close to another mob or pack, toss CoR on them and watch them come back. Possible crisis averted.
Got a Warlock to 21 then got caught by respawns in a mine and died. Started a mage a couple days ago and am level 16 now. HC is way more fun, because everything you do matters so much more now. Every mistake is potentially serious.
The part with the AFK heh. I dinged 30 on my druid, so i decided to skill herbalism. In the middle of my herb-sesh, my inlaws knocked on the door. I was on a road in the barrens, lvl 13-15 mobs around me. I just stealthed on the road... Came back after 5 minutes dead to a lvl 15 raptor... Then I leveled a new druid. Dinged 30 again. Thousand needles, get a call on my phone, stealth, go get my phone, 30sec call, come back with 50hp and died as i tried to run. Now I always logout haha
Because it's a fun class, fast to level & good survivability I've decided to go mage, my friend however I think is a true sadist and is going to level a warrior, may the odds ever be in his favour lol.
@Funkapotamus levelling a warrior has an unforgiving levelling process regardless, the reason why it’s got a high survivability to 60 is because of those wanting that true hardcore challenge. Let’s not pretend warrior is somehow easier to level based off that stat lol.
Great video Crix, thank you. I'm resubbing for the official HC servers. I searched Kargoz YT channel to see if he's put anything out and all his YT videos are gone. Do you know what happened to him? I assume he quit the game.
He unlisted them for the time being due to some people starting drama with him and spamming him unfriendly and toxic comments on his videos. He'll list them back soon tho.
I'll be making a ton of HC content! Class deep dives are next! And I'll be Alliance for my first character since we're raiding Allliance side. But I'll also have horde characters as well
I really don't understand all the hate kargoz gets The dude is the father of this entire game mode and community, if not for him we would have nothing. Great video as always crix.
Tempted to try this on Classic. I tried it back in 2005...best I got was level 52 on a shadow priestess...died in a pre-maintenance evenin lag spike. Yep...that was a thing. I do have three lv 70s now that never died, but they levelled during Shadowlands / Dragonflight...it is just much, much easier NOT to die now. Now..what would be the best class...I am thinking druid..stealth...Guardian...heals...seems to have it all.
That's why I'm not even going to bother playing HC. One lightning strike in your neighborhood can knock out the power for even a couple seconds and you die while DC'd. F that.
I started playing Wow in 2008. My character would die, and I would lose interest in them. It just didn't feel right to keep playing. I started deleting them and starting over when they died. No one understood why I did it, and called me crazy for throwing away a "perfectly good toon". People would go out of their way to get me killed on my server, just to see if I would delete and start over. Getting disconnected in the middle of an easy fight was the worst. I once had a 49th level toon die on an elevator in UC. I didn't even know that was possible. All in all, I played wow until 2018, and went through several hundred characters. I managed to get to max level twice in that time. I would've had a lot more fun with it if other's had played like I did, but I never came across anyone else who played the same way. I finally had to give it up.
Great Guide and thank you for having my clip on the video! The link to my clip is wrong, if you can update it and have the right link I would appreciate it :)
I finally decided to try WoW. And I chose WOTLK classic as my first taste of the game. Im playing an undead rogue and I've died SO many times. Im nearing the end of my 1st week in the game at lvl 40 and I would ragequit forever if I lost my character.I cant even begin to imagine losing a high level char in HC...
Yeah it's wild. It's pretty easy to die in the open world, but that's the fun of it IMO! Welcome to WoW my friend. I sincerely hope you're enjoying it!
@@CrixGuides my plan is to play for years. I’m gonna do solo play with mail trading between characters professions. No groups or anything. Gonna do one of each class, alliance. Won’t be doing a shaman. Maybe I’ll become a bot killer. We know there will be bots in low level zones and I’ll make it my mission to grief as many bots as I can regularly.
@@johngear1415 HELL YEA!! That sounds dope! My first character will be racing tot 60, so i'l do whatever means to get there, but after that all my toons will be SSF as well. love that aspect.
I am on my 3rd warrior and lost 3g I made up to lvl 18 when that warrior died. My 3rd warrior is doing good so far. So once the servers are back, going to pick up skinning and creating a bank alt and send the gold to my alt. Been making a lot of gold selling in the AH herbs, animal meat, cloth, and small fury paw. I vendor the green items instead of waiting for it to sell in the AH or waste my time in trade chat because I prefer to level.
Warrior is so rough. Leveled one when they added the classic servers, it was so brutal, died so much. Can't imagine leveling one in hardcore lol, must be brutal! Good Luck!
Good video. As a tip/constructive criticism, a LOT of people like to hear videos while doing something else. It would be a good idea to avoid putting important info on the screen only. If your video requires watching by nature, then it's fine. If you don't want to read everything, warn us that there is info on the screen that you will not go in detail about. Thanks for the content, I was on the fence about paying a sub to try hardcore, but the details on the video helped me decide.

Same here dude, decided to treat it. Never played wow before and into hc classic
@@avidotaku1198you quit yet?
@@avidotaku1198 if you play with a friend its fine. def hard though
The massive balls on this man. I've played wow from BC till warlords and then just did private wotlk and BC servers, and I struggle bus on hardcore.

We chatted about this over 10 years ago and lots of people were against it but I am glad it got traction and I hope to play it soon.
for bags there will probably be tailors in starting zones looking to get free skill points. just need some linen cloth and they'll make bags for free.
Hell yeah! Good tip!!
I will be going tailoring and enchanting or tailoring/skinning and can confirm this for horde US. Lol.
Thought u couldn't trade with people on hardcore??
@@tylerh96734 in official you can trade/grp/AH etc. will make hc more social for sure.
@@tylerh96734 on official servers you can

AGREEED!
I hate playing with nameplates.

Thanks for the video Crix and GL with the race to 60!!
Quissy! NP! Miss you and hope you're well!
your only real enemy is server disconnect. everything else is a joke compared to it.
if you don't trust it, don't start.
I like to keybind raid markers to help me keep an eye on moving or otherwise dangerous mobs. Allows you to see 'em easily and through obstacles.
Up arrow skull down arrow x left or right arrow moon (cc). Boom done
This video has me pumped for the official server. Lots of great tips
Hell yeah! Get hyped! Going to be a blast

Jesus man how many keybinds do you need lmao
@@IxxlostinaboxAt least 30
or if you're using a t-pad "shiftleft" and mean it
Horrendous idea. It’s vanilla wow, there are barely
Any binds…

Got a fire mage to 49 on blood sail bucs. Just never finished it. I’ll go again on official fo sho. Maybe get a Druid or rouge too. Getting pumped! Great vid bud!
Thanks and good luck! I have some toons on BsB as well and unsure if I want to finish them or not
Thanks for video, brought back some great memories and makes me want to play Hardcore. Got a new sub here looking forward to watching more.
Just started HC classic, died lv2 from tabbing out. Lessons learned
Atleast it was at the low level!!! Good luck my friend
Awesome guide man. First warlock to 60 let’s fuckin go
Fingers crossed! There's a few super good warlock speedrunners that are better than me! But ive been practicing alot, so should be a good race
Another great guide. Keep up the good work, brother.
Thanks brotha!
"I plan on being the first Warlock to hit 60"
"First tip - take your time"
I see what you're doing there, lol
Iv never really played classic but every since hard core was a thing iv enjoyed playing it and im having a blast but i cant wait for official

Never used rogues Gouge as cast stopping tool on a mobs, learned it the hard way 😂

Got a Warlock to 21 then got caught by respawns in a mine and died. Started a mage a couple days ago and am level 16 now. HC is way more fun, because everything you do matters so much more now. Every mistake is potentially serious.
Lost two characters so far, second one was more devastating though and it was because I was tired
GOOD luck on the next ones! You can do it
delog has a nice feture where it maps out deaths on maps.
Stonewatch has mobs that will aggro right through the walls in the back courtyard.

Omg. 😂😂😂😂 I'm sorry! That's so crazyyyyyy. I hope you didn't do it again lol
Because it's a fun class, fast to level & good survivability I've decided to go mage, my friend however I think is a true sadist and is going to level a warrior, may the odds ever be in his favour lol.
I'm gonna try and recruit an IRL friend, my son or (perhaps) my wife to do a duo. Warrior pala or warrior shaman.
@Funkapotamus levelling a warrior has an unforgiving levelling process regardless, the reason why it’s got a high survivability to 60 is because of those wanting that true hardcore challenge. Let’s not pretend warrior is somehow easier to level based off that stat lol.

A lot of these I already do without doing hardcore mode because I'm already a very cautious player.
More Crix HC content please! Are you just playing alliance for HC?
I'll be making a ton of HC content! Class deep dives are next! And I'll be Alliance for my first character since we're raiding Allliance side. But I'll also have horde characters as well
Honnestly after alost 8 years of not playin WoW... i think im finally gonna come back!
WELCOME BACK!!!
I really don't understand all the hate kargoz gets
The dude is the father of this entire game mode and community, if not for him we would have nothing. Great video as always crix.
Nice Vid!
Thanks!
Great work dude! When do you think Blizzard will drop the live servers?
I'm thinking the end of August!
Are the toons allowed to die after you’ve already hit 60? Or raid wipe equals delete everything?
If you die, you delete your character. Even at 60

All in all, I played wow until 2018, and went through several hundred characters. I managed to get to max level twice in that time. I would've had a lot more fun with it if other's had played like I did, but I never came across anyone else who played the same way. I finally had to give it up.
The a & d trick! I was wondering how people could walk aways always facing ennemies!!!! Thanks!
EVERY class?! You madman! 😂
It's going to be hard. Especially since I've really only ever played Warlock/Mage/Rogue lol. But should be fun
Great Guide and thank you for having my clip on the video! The link to my clip is wrong, if you can update it and have the right link I would appreciate it :)
Hell yeah! Dope clip! I never thought to use the dummies like that my guy! I'll fix the link asap when I get on my PC! Big cheers
Great video!
Can someone link me the discord server the link doesn’t work and I can’t find it. Thanks.
I finally decided to try WoW. And I chose WOTLK classic as my first taste of the game. Im playing an undead rogue and I've died SO many times. Im nearing the end of my 1st week in the game at lvl 40 and I would ragequit forever if I lost my character.I cant even begin to imagine losing a high level char in HC...
Yeah it's wild. It's pretty easy to die in the open world, but that's the fun of it IMO! Welcome to WoW my friend. I sincerely hope you're enjoying it!
I can’t wait to see HC raids. To date we haven’t seen a single legit HC raid. It’s gonna be rare indeed in official.
Yeah I'm very excited as well
@@CrixGuides my plan is to play for years. I’m gonna do solo play with mail trading between characters professions. No groups or anything. Gonna do one of each class, alliance. Won’t be doing a shaman.
Maybe I’ll become a bot killer. We know there will be bots in low level zones and I’ll make it my mission to grief as many bots as I can regularly.
@@johngear1415 HELL YEA!! That sounds dope! My first character will be racing tot 60, so i'l do whatever means to get there, but after that all my toons will be SSF as well. love that aspect.
@@CrixGuides personally I was really hoping for instant mail unlocked on these servers. I’d sacrifice auction house for that. 😅
@@johngear1415isn’t that gonna be non consensual pvp if you target those poor hard working bots? XD
this helped me a lot
Would love to know what add-ons you're using for your UI frames and name plates and action bar
I am on my 3rd warrior and lost 3g I made up to lvl 18 when that warrior died. My 3rd warrior is doing good so far. So once the servers are back, going to pick up skinning and creating a bank alt and send the gold to my alt. Been making a lot of gold selling in the AH herbs, animal meat, cloth, and small fury paw. I vendor the green items instead of waiting for it to sell in the AH or waste my time in trade chat because I prefer to level.
Warrior is so rough. Leveled one when they added the classic servers, it was so brutal, died so much. Can't imagine leveling one in hardcore lol, must be brutal! Good Luck!
Tip #1: Have a good internet. Sucks to do everything right only to die to DC
What addon do you use for UI and the font changes? It looks pretty clean
Got you dawg ruclips.net/video/byzqMZWOK7s/видео.html
How to not die in a game that doesn’t allow you to die: Just don’t die
hel yea your the man bro thanks
U Always talking about the auction house. But it’s disabled?
You can use it on the official HC server, but us SSF players won't be using it
There's a typo in the orange text at 13:55.
On what server and faction do u want to do the record runs?
Alliance and on the HC server
just lost my fourth character and im looking for motivation to start a new one. what have I gotten myself into?!
Good tip about afk I queued up some cooking and went to make a drink came back and I was dead I was too close to the fire 🔥
No wayyyy!!! That's crazy
Be prepared to run changed my HC life, I know it sounds stupid but how often do we run in retail ? It wasn't my first instinct in HC, thanks :)
Tip #1 : Slow and steady, dont rush
Tip #2 : Dont be stupid
Happy trails on tardcore.
Good video. As a tip/constructive criticism, a LOT of people like to hear videos while doing something else. It would be a good idea to avoid putting important info on the screen only. If your video requires watching by nature, then it's fine. If you don't want to read everything, warn us that there is info on the screen that you will not go in detail about.
Thanks for the content, I was on the fence about paying a sub to try hardcore, but the details on the video helped me decide.
By default strafing is q and e, that does fine
Attack critters like cows, rabbits .... to pick up cheap weapon skill points when you need them.
Will you make an addon video for official servers after they go up?
yep! I will!
I hope Icy veins is updated for wotlk classic and not stale with info from 6 months ago
Nice tutorial
Do not forget about cure poison potions from first aid
Getting a lock 60 brave of you
Can’t count how many times a potion actually saved my ass
Timestamp: 12:24 I'm a noob... What's a logout skip?
thanks!
i guess many ppl will save their light of elune for a makgora at 60 :D
