“The value of these low-level purple equipment was not only in their attributes, but also in their rarity. ”
“In the 1960s, many warrior players even sold their cards to buy the inferno battleaxe. A large card sold for 300 gold, and they took out 100 gold to buy the inferno battleaxe. ”
!!“From a later point of view, it was simply unreasonable. According to the gameplay of World of Warcraft, any low-level purple equipment was only valuable in appearance, while the quicksand robe was used for illusion. No matter how good the attributes of low-level purple equipment were, could they be better than a full-level blue equipment? ”
“This phenomenon was mainly due to the fast food attribute in the later versions. As the versions continued to adjust, farming had basically become a one-stop service. As long as one reached about level 11, they could directly level up the death mines, Shadowfang Keep, sanguine zul ‘farrak, Stratholme, Hellfire fortress, Pangya reservoir, and so on all the way to the maximum level. It would only take a few days. ”
“For these fast food fans, a low-level purple equipment was indeed meaningless. ”
“However, in the 1960s, it took a very long time for players to go from level 20 to level 60. During this process, a good set of purple equipment could give you a very comfortable experience of fighting monsters and leveling up for the next few dozen hours. It was also very useful when you encountered an enemy faction in the wild. ”
“In addition, the attributes of equipment in the 1960s were not as uniform as later on. For example, weapons had upper limit damage, speed, attributes, and special effects. These all directly affected the quality of a weapon. ”
“For example, the level 51 thief’s main sword, Crowe’s blade, was one of the godly items. Its speed was 2.8, and its attack limit was 149. Its only attribute was “”increase your chance of dealing a fatal blow by 1%.”” Its attributes were +7 strength and +5 endurance. It could be said that all aspects were perfectly matched. Of course, if they wanted to buy it, they would have to compete with other thieves, Warriors, and Knights. ”
“If it was enchanted with the Crusader’s or 15 dexterity, this weapon would be enough for thieves to live in the molten core from Level 51. ”
“Leveling up in the 1960s was very slow, especially after level 50. Getting this weapon meant that you could do quests without any problems before you reached the maximum level. You could do quests as you pleased, kill enemies as you pleased, and even struggle if you encountered a Max-level account with bad equipment. ”
“That was why many people said that reaching the maximum level in World of Warcraft was only the beginning. This saying had a specific context, which meant that the players in World of Warcraft would only get in touch with PVE and the core ways of PVP after they reached the maximum level. Only then would they really face the Epic team Dungeons. ”
“Many people thought that the content in World of Warcraft before reaching the maximum level was boring, and the players could level up with the help of others, which was an absolute misinterpretation. ”
“In fact, a lot of effort had been put into the low-level quests and Dungeons in World of Warcraft. Although these low-level Dungeons were not as difficult due to their difficulty, their story structure and playstyle were no weaker than those of high-level Dungeons. ”
“For example, zul ‘farrak, which zou Zhuo and the others were about to explore, had a history that could be traced back to the ancient times of Azeroth. ”
“At that time, the trolls were the absolute rulers of the continent, but some troll priests always used mediumship to summon demons with the idea of creating big news. They repeatedly Played with Fire and finally awakened the leader of the Zerg, kichiz, who was sleeping in Silithus. This directly led to the official establishment of the cancer of Azeroth, the Zerg ahek Empire, and began the war that lasted for thousands of years. ”
“In the end, kicicks played himself to death. In order to continue monitoring the Zerg of Silithus, gurabash built their own city in the Tanaris desert, zul ‘farrak, guarded by the sandfury tribe. However, over the long course of history, more and more races appeared, and these races invaded the trolls ‘land. ”
“The sandfury trolls could only retreat to zul ‘farrak. They hoped to create an undead army here, or even various evil creatures to conquer their territory. ”
“In the boss battle of the instance dungeon, the players also began to encounter more and more difficult challenges. For example, in the Scarlet Monastery, the B * stard couple had been given the title of B * stard couple by many players after they were resurrected on the spot. Zul ‘farrak’s boss was even more powerful and had more diverse fighting styles. ”
“For example, the witch doctor zum ‘rah had a large number of graves outside his altar, which were filled with all kinds of troll mummies. When the players first came here, they might go straight to the boss without knowing why. At that time, the mummies in the graveyard would run out and send the players back to the graveyard. ”
“If they wanted to kill this boss, they would have to patiently open all the graves outside the altar and kill all the mummies. ”
“In front of zul ‘farrak’s huge altar, the players would encounter a rare’ Guardian ‘boss-type combat skill. Here, after the players killed the executioner, they would find an expedition team locked in a cage. Their Captain, Sergeant Brad, had asked the players to save them. ”
“The sandfury trolls had already surrounded the altar and were attacking. Out of helplessness, the players could only fight against the troll Army with Sergeant Brad. ”
“The reason this place was called a hundred-man kill was because there were nearly a hundred sandfury trolls below. However, these monsters were a combination of elite and normal monsters, so many mages had a great time using magic burst to play AOE. ”
“This battle wasn’t as simple as just killing monsters. There were five different NPCs here, and each of them had different skills. For example, orc warlocks could cast spells, while Goblin engineers could bury bombs on the ground. At this time, the players needed to mark the NPCs ‘heads and pay attention to the safety of the key NPCs at all times. ”
“The Goblin Engineer must not die, because he would help the players blow up the door to the final boss. As for the others … After the boss battle ended, they would defect. The players could decide whether to let them live to the end according to their own needs. ”
“And the most praiseworthy item was probably the two-handed sword that zul ‘farrak dropped The godly sword SUSAS. This two-handed sword was not directly dropped. Instead, it needed to be combined with two blue one-handed swords dropped by the two bosses. Moreover, these two swords were bound to each other when picked up. It seemed to be unique in World of Warcraft to combine the matching swords of a set into one sword. ”
“Of course, the reason why this two-handed sword was rare was because its drop rate was very low. In the first version, the drop rate of its components, the two blue Swords, was only about 0.5%. One could only imagine how much luck one needed to farm and combine the two swords. ”
“However, the story of this sword showed how much importance World of Warcraft placed on low-level instance dungeons and world-building, and the players at that time were much more happy to get this purple two-handed sword than most of the purple equipment that they got after graduation. ”
