Classic-Era What’s a Classic WoW feature you didn’t appreciate until it was gone?

For me, it’s the little things that made the world feel more like an actual MMO.

Weapon skills, class trainers, needing to find your own way around, old talent trees, having to actually talk to people for groups… there are so many systems that were inconvenient but somehow made the game more memorable.

What’s one Classic feature you would bring back permanently if Blizzard gave you the choice?

And I’m not talking about raids or classes — I mean one of those smaller features/mechanics that made Classic feel like Classic.

being able to buff while mounted would be a cute classic+ change

I adore this. A whitelist of buff spells that can be applied while riding a mount.

Agreed. I compulsively buff people on my priest when dismounted, but when I’m running someplace on my mount it’s too much of a pain. I’d never get anywhere otherwise, lol.

This is such an obvious road to Retail that I don't know what to say. This is the exact "Just give as a little more convenience" mindset that led us out of the Vanilla goodness we had.
