M jili777 anyinfluencers, professionals and enthusiasts will all set out on aquest to level up their characters to 60, the highest level in thegame, as well as claim victory over the game’s final objective –defeating Ragnarosand Onyxia.
WoW Classic is going to be a huge happening out there, with potentially millions of players coming back to the game. Based on the efforts on Nostalrius and Light’s Hope, two pirated servers to have changed Blizzard’s minds about launching a WoW Classic server, this is completely reasonable.
Meanwhile,MethodGM Shanna “Darrie” Robertshad this to say about the upcoming event:
“Beingable to bring the Classic Race To World First to the WSOE calendar ofevents in Las Vegas is incredibly exciting for all of us at Method.After three Race To World First events in Europe, it feels fantasticto bring an event to U.S. Soil. The passion of the Classic WoWfanbase is unparalleled and we are confident that Estars Studios isgoing to help us not only live up to the expectations of the fans,but exceed them.”
Methodwill compete in slightly different conditions this time around.Instead of racing through the content with geared characters, Methodwill have to instead gear themselves up and farm from scratch,including levelling their “toons”.
The live event will reunite a number of players who have been able to garner a solid following throughout the years and are known for their personalities or simply skill level at the game. Some of the names participating include “Esfand” and Scott “Sco” McMillan, Mike “Preach” Lamb, JB “Jdotb” Daniel, and Adam “Finalboss” Knych, and others.
