FUN / NOT FUN: Classic WoW Dungeons (and Raids) Edition

i don't want kill dragons in wow i want to enslave them lol i play warlock

"Wailing Caverns...one of the few dungeons you can actually get lost in in this game."
This needs an asterisk. It is true for RETAIL wow, but almost laughably inaccurate for classic.

Most classic dungeons are convoluted mazes. Even the mid-tier ones can cost a group hours if no one knows where to go.
See: Gnomeregan, Maraudon, Sunken Temple, Dire Maul

This isn't even considering the higher-end ones which are so absolutely gargantaun, they can even contain the entrances to raids INSIDE them!
See: Stratholme, Blackrock Depths and Blackrock Spire

I agree with everything, except whaling caverns. That is not a fun dungeon.

classic wow is the easiest mmo even made thats why so many are playing it retail is trash and hard.

ZG not fun D: ? While i didn't agree with everything you said i could see your PoV for disliking/liking something i did/didn't.
But ZG not fun D: ? My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined.

agree with most things however i always loved how hillarious the raid would look in nature resi gear so aq40 is a + for me

Your kidding right :D Uldaman is what shows you what Raids are like. Bosses with 5 adds, Items what you have to combine to summon a Boss. It is a Mini raid and i totaly love to go there :) It is just the same as Maraudon. so, how can you like such doungen, but you dont :D that makes no sense haha

I disliked because you gnomer was fun

I disagree sunken Temple is not fun

I think that your list was spot-on! Although I wouldn't say Wailing Caverns is fun, its left side sure is memorable at the very least.

I freakin love Uldaman so if you read this know there’s at least one person who loves it. The aesthetic reminds me of Anarchy Online and the fights are all fun imo

Bro TWD edit in gnomregan is actually deadly funny XD

I personally didn't like diremaul too much, it honestly just felt like a grind, only one boss was memreble, that being that big demon dog thing with all the eyes.
Otherwise it felt like a slog with some good loot.

Love this series

Not fun because it's too short? Lmao. What weak reasoning

Gnomer is still to this day the worst dungeon ever in the game. So very very awful.

You seems to be a very boring player

I was the only mage I knew that had the turtle polymorph out of ZG!

WC was shit mate, and ZG was great , what are you actually doing

I genuinely love Ahn’qiraj.

as someone who did do the bug farm i'll admit i did have a bit of ptsd after it going in to AQ40 despite that i do still love the raid and generally love all the vanilla raids overall, naxx is tho my least favorite it can be very fun and exciting in the start when you are going in for the first time but i feel like after running it for a while it starts to feel more like a chore to do it. my favorite raid overall is definetly BWL pretty chill raid to do imo :)

BRD was so good, it felt like an actual place, it is more detailed than even capital cities, it kinda overshadow the raids (though if they made it into a raid, it wouldnt feel as intimate as it is, it feeling like a infiltration is what make it so good), instead of a DnD dungeon, BRD felt like a whole module/short campaign

Only thing I don't agree on is AQ40. I really enjoyed that. In particular C'thun, but I think the majority of the raid is awesome apart from the slime boss, that one sucks.

Says WC and Gnomer were fun: Opinion invalid!!!!!!!

(But seriously, getting lost in there with the useless map is awful...)

Wailing Caverns = fun 🙃

Gnomer was never fun. Molten core was fun. ZG was the most fun raid 20 years ago. Other than that, list was mostly right.

Mara isn't fun

If we include getting to the dungeons as part of the 'fun' factor, I'd say a bunch of the fun ones suddenly become pretty unfun.

As someone who hasn't played for a loooong time: Almost fully agree.
I'm very sad that experiences like Blackrock Depths and Maraudon will never be recreated. The world is different now. Attention spans are just too short. :(

I will never miss Stratholme though. I finally got the damn horse after running it to the point where statistically I should have gotten it three times.

Stratolhme breeds lore and nostalgia

I loved MC tbh

How did you spell wailing caverns wrong

What? ZG is probably the most fun classic raid. Not a ton of trash, fun, unique bosses, good lore, nice visuals. Very refreshing compared to the dark feel of all other classic raids

Liking Scholomance 😬

I like Uldaman. It's a nice dungeon diving into ancient history and on top it is also really, really good for gaining XP - the dungeon gives soooo many XP.

The original versions of the classic dungeons where all better than the reworks some of them got. Scholomance, Sunken Temple, to a lesser degree even Shadowfang keep....all destroyed by the reworks.

I strongly disagree about Zul'Gurub - a super fun raid. And I'm not alone with this opinion - at least on my servers here in Germany Zul'Gurub was extremely popular.

Dire Maul Tribute was always my favorite run in vanilla. Not so much in Classic when people found ways to skip everything, but doing it "properly." Just the whole concept of being rewarded for finding a way to NOT rush through killing everything always appealed to me.

Most I agree with....but gnomerang is the worst dungeon in the game, it's boring, frustrating and tedious, and I'd much rather do uldaman than maraudon...

>zul'gurub
>not fun
opinion discarded.

Wailing Caverns fun ???? Since when ?

ZG was always a great time for me. Such a nice change of scenery from the underground depressing raids.

Maraudon and ST are trash. And too close to level cap to matter… but their gear is leveling quality. LBRS and DM east also meh.

I like the splices of Hearthstone cinematics for effect with Wailing Caverns and Deadmines, but it would be cool to credit them. Also, I have to disagree - Molten Core is very fun.

Damn who likes Gnomeregan and hates Uldaman ur crazy man.

Was good until you said Uldaman, that was like top 5 dungeons such an amazing and beautiful dungeon, faction unique bosses, epic bosses with great lore, epic end boss, free plate goblin rocket helmet. Then sunken temple fun? You mean the final dungeon they rushed out of development in a week that nobody ever runs and is literally a long hallway filled with monsters? What the hell

That's a fair list I happen to like ZG cuz I like jungles. Hakkar. And the special mounts.

My biggest accomplishment was outhealing a 8 piece tier 2 holy priest on the sapphiron fight with high +healing and 3 piece tier 3 and sniping the top heals spot

Ulda is one of my favourites 😅
