That's all it ever is.

The first progression servers that I played on live had the revamp lavastrom and freeport sewers loot dropping during classic rendering whole swaths of classic gear moot. During the last ones, if I recall correctly because I didn't play, they had the out of combat regen system in place for the whole game.

You are correct to question this stuff because, unless you see something specifically to the contrary, you can assume that "progression" is purely about content unlocks in name only...It's just that content from the current game, pretty much, with exceptions.

They don't go in and restore the game to actually BE like it was in each era, if that's what you are looking for, basically.

yeah its going to suck dick, people are retarded. its going to have 15 expansions of tweaks and fucks to make it pointless.

I wish this was truly classic with non-revamped zones and items dropping from original mobs. I could do without the spell book to 35 but blind at night was good times. Paid to be a dark elf.
