[00:04] here on hardcore classic World of Warcraft where YouTube decides my future. You guys will control my character and my journey in the comments below. So the two most liked comments on this episode I will have to do in the
[00:20] winning comment says that I have to delete my weapon, that is what I will do for the coming episode. In the first one here, we are going to start out by making a human warrior because I feel like that is going to be challenging and
[00:34] like that is going to be challenging and we're also going to go with self found. auction house, we're not going to be able to trade, and we're not going to be able to receive or send mails. So everything we do we will do by ourself
[00:47] and try to survive for as long as possible. If I die along the journey, the challenge immediately ends, but we're going to try to go as far as possible and I hope you guys will not be too hard in the comments below. But
[01:00] really looking forward to actually playing some hardcore classic cuz that has been a very long time ago. I'm usually a retail player, so this is going to be very interesting. So to limit myself for this first episode, I
[01:14] am going to delete my main hand weapon and that is the restriction that I'm started with some leveling and see how it goes without a weapon. I actually performs without a weapon. It seems to
[01:28] So I hope we will be able to actually get some levels done without having a weapon. Oh, immediately dropped a pair of pants, thing you can let me know in the comments is if you want me to keep the
[01:43] restrictions forever after they are added. So for example, this first episode we run without a weapon. If you want me to forever now go without a weapon or if that should be reset in the next episode. That is totally up to you
[01:56] think is the most fun if we keep the restrictions or not throughout the different episodes. I'm also not going to be running with any add-ons unless you guys say so because I think it's really fun to go completely raw and try
[02:10] to figure it out without using any add-ons and I already noticed that I was killing all of these wolves like pretty much for no reason since the first quest was to kill those kobold vermins. But we did hit our first level up and hopefully
[02:22] to kill these mobs. Actually right now it feels pretty good to not have a weapon. We are dealing good enough damage. It's just sad that we cannot use be able to use the heroic strike. Nice, we just got a new drop here for a chest
[02:36] mail item. So now we're starting to look like a real warrior this full mail armor since I have so little experience with hardcore classic and not too much with classic overall. So like I have no idea how hard it will be later on to play
[02:52] without a weapon. Like is it even going to be possible to kill a mob if you're a going to be really interesting to see. I guess we will have to try to kill under level the mobs for quite some time. But it seems to be fine now in the beginning
[03:05] it seems to be fine now in the beginning here at least. saw that we don't have any gloves on us. So that's just free 17 armor. Let's actually check how much armor impacts like how much we survive. So it
[03:18] physical attacks. The amount of reduction is influenced by the level of the attacker. Damage reduction against a level two attacker is 22%. Okay, so that is good. So we basically reduce more damage if we kill a level one than if we
[03:32] going to be quite important for us to stay on top with getting the gear that we can so we really stay strong. And then always focus on killing the same level mobs or lower that we are. But there we go. We finished our quest here
[03:47] ahead and turn that one in. It looks like I actually forgot to take a quest here, so maybe that was for the wolves cuz I'm pretty sure that we're supposed to be killing some wolves soon or like I thought that was the first quest. Go
[04:00] with honor, friend. Speak with Egan Pelt Skinner. He's him, so I'm pretty sure this is going to be the wolf quest here after this turn in. Exactly, bring eight pieces of tough wolf meat to Egan. So now we have to
[04:14] kill the wolves. Oh, we just got a new shield. That's really nice. Oh, it's way better than our shield as well. Way more armor. Ooh, looking good.
[04:27] Oh, what a jackpot. We just looted the small brown pouch six slot bag. That's absolutely huge since we can't buy any bags from like auction houses and stuff. vendors. That saves us a lot of gold as well. So that's a huge thing. It's
[04:40] always so nice when you drop the bags and there we go. We just leveled up. Level three. It's feeling almost too smooth so far. I thought we were going to struggle hard without a weapon. Nice, a pair of leather boots that gave us 16
[04:54] armor. That's nice. Okay, so we killed all of the wolves now for the tough wolf cave cuz I think we need to kill the kobold workers now if I'm not incorrect. kobold workers. Then we also got to get some thieves bandannas. Oh man, look at
[05:10] getting decked out with all of the gears. This is looking good. Now we're looking at 236 armor. It's already pretty noticeable that we're killing the mobs very, very slow cuz we're hitting them for like six all the time and it
[05:25] looks like they have quite a lot of HP. So it takes a lot of punches to kill very much slower than having a weapon. That I've noticed already. But now we killed our last kobold worker, so that is good. So let's go and complete the
[05:39] quests. I'm not sure if we will level up, but if we will, I think we can go to spells that we can learn. We get a wrist. That's really nice. Okay, so let's see if we will level up here from the warrior quest turning. I hope so. We
[05:53] should. We did not. But when we level up, we can without a weapon, so that is really nice. Rend we will not be able to use without a weapon. Thunder clap, it looks like we can use without a weapon, but
[06:06] that is for level six. Parry, that is not going to help us apparently without a weapon either. And battle shout, this one we will definitely learn cuz this will give us some attack power and we should be hitting stronger when we have
[06:18] actually probably just go and kill one mob and then we level up and then we can that's going to be pretty big for us. I'm sorry to interrupt, but I just brother have released a free to play game on Steam. It's an incremental
[06:33] clicker type style of game and if you guys want to support us and also try out the game, please do so. It's linked in the top of the description and in the pinned comment. In my opinion, it's a really, really fun game. You kill
[06:45] monster, you level up, you increase your weapon, your damage. You can buy stocks can get a lot of stuff in this game. It's really fun and actually pretty playing this game like crazy since we launched it because it's just so fun.
[06:59] Also an active leaderboard so you guys can see who have performed the best and who has come furthest into the game so far. So if you guys want to support me like at a crazy level, please just check it out, give it a shot and see what you
[07:11] Discord. It's linked there as well and give us feedback what you think about the game or what we can improve. So please check out Cave Dude on Steam. continue with the video. Yeah, I'm hitting like way harder with the
[07:26] the battle shout activated. Let's also sell what we can to the vendor. Okay, so we got to train charge. We're not going to train rend now then since I don't until I know if you guys want me to re-equip a weapon for the next episode
[07:41] or if we keep the restraints over the episodes. But at least we have shards now, which is good. And the quest we're going to do now is the Cobalt laborer. I think that's in the cave over here again. Let's try out shards for the
[07:54] first time. That's nice. Oh, look at this. There's a batter chest over there. Let's see what we can get in that one. Nothing too fancy, sadly. 11 copper and some junk. Okay, nice. We
[08:09] just killed all of the laborers. We're 12 out of 12. So let's go back and turn go and kill the thieves and get some bandannas. Okay, so here we got to get some new feet, which is really strong. And now we get a quest to report to
[08:23] Goldshire, but that we're not going to do now. We're first going to finish all the quests here in Northshire. And yeah, we need the red burlap bandannas. That is the next one. Let's just vendor first before we go there. We got a main hand
[08:37] weapon, but yeah, that's going to the vendor. I guess we repair as well. Here they are, the thugs. They are actually like red mobs that is aggroing if we go too close, so we got to be careful here so we don't like pull
[08:52] multiple of them. Cuz I don't think we can handle that really without a weapon. Okay, so there is definitely another quest we're supposed to pick up those things here on the ground. I don't know if we get that after or if I missed to
[09:04] pick up a quest, but I'm pretty sure I looked everywhere. I think we're going to hit level five now. Which is the yeah, nice. Amazing. This is going smooth. Holy [ __ ] Okay, so let's get back to Northshire and turn in
[09:19] the bandanna quest and see if we get another quest for the buckets here. Cuz I'm pretty sure that we will do that. Of course, the rewards from this quest is just weapons, which is interesting, but we cannot use them. So we get two more
[09:31] quests now. We're going to do Garrick's Head, which is one like NPC over there again, that we need to kill, and Milly Osworth. She's over with her wagon on the other side of the Abbey, near the stable. I'm sure she could use a pair of
[09:46] hands like yours. Okay, so we need to find Abbey. I think she's over here, and buckets. I'm pretty sure that this is it. Like, I'm so sure that we actually going to have to pick up those buckets. There we go. Bring eight crates of
[09:59] Milly's harvest to Milly Osworth. So, there we go. Now, we're going to do Garrick's head, which is going to be interesting because I hope he's not have no weapon. We just looted another bag. That's
[10:14] amazing. Like, I think we're really lucky with the bags, cuz now we have two of them, which is just amazing. Okay, so we got all of the harvests. Now, it's just Garrick's head. Let's see if he is up. I
[10:27] think he should be somewhere. Yeah, it's probably down by the tent or something here. Or not. There we go. Garrick Padfoot. Looks like he has a little bit of a friend here. So, let's see if we can tackle both of these mobs. I really
[10:41] hope so. It's looking fine for now. It's looking fine for now. Garrick wasn't that strong.
[10:55] So, from Garrick's head, it wasn't anything good, really. We're going to more to the vendor. From the Milly harvest quest, it doesn't look like we really get anything, but there is a follow-up quest here. Bring the grape
[11:09] manifest to Brother Neils in Northshire Abbey. Okay. Yeah, that's in the building. I guess it's upstairs. I'm always so confused in here, like with the different levels of this building and where to go with the quest and such.
[11:22] Oh, but here Brother Neils is. So, that was lucky. Oh, an upgraded latched belt. one for some extra armor. And no follow-up quest. So, I think the journey
[11:34] now will continue to Goldshire because think we finished all the quests here in let's head down to Goldshire and see what's up there. I know that there sometimes can be some strange activities in Goldshire. I've heard whispers about
[11:48] Hopefully it's nothing too bad. And it looks like we will get a pikeman shield as well. Nice. It looks like it's raining here in Goldshire, so that's not the best, I guess. But here we're going to get the pikeman shield, so let's take
[12:03] that one and immediately equip it cuz that's going to give us some extra armor, which is really, really good. And let's go into the infamous inn here in Goldshire and see what is up. We do have some quests to pick up here, which is
[12:17] always very nice. We're also immediately going to put our hearthstone here, make this our inn, so we don't forget about that cuz that I always tend to forget. And yeah, looking at it right now, we already saved 10 silver actually
[12:30] dropping two of those bags. So that is a really, really nice. I think we have let's go over the state of our character right now. We are level five with 70%
[12:42] right now. We are level five with 70% towards level six. We are looking at 322 armor now with some really nice gear, I would say. We look like a starter warrior. The only thing we're missing is the weapon, right? And our total played
[12:54] in this challenge so far is 49 minutes. So we made it here to Goldshire in 49 minutes without a weapon. I wouldn't say that's too bad, but I do think that this is where our journey ends for the first episode of this challenge. If you liked
