The title really says it all, but I’m self hosting world of Warcraft wrath of the lich king.

I’m just so shocked that it all works to be honest. It’s blowing my mind still.

I always want to play classic wow, but I play so infrequently that it’s not worth paying a subscription.

It never really occurred to me that I could just host my own server until chatgpt recommended that when I was researching things to self hosting.

It’s not public yet as my upload speeds are too slow.

I think I’m going to set the server up on my laptop so I can play wow while on my 14 hour flight coming up.

I’ve always played the game solo anyway due to my casualness.

    I am also running my own instance of azerothcraft on a vps so that i can play with some friends. Love it so far but summertime means there is not too much activity yet. Im running with autoscale mod and it is quite fun to run some of the lower lvl instances at lvl 60 and it is actually a challenge (yes i capped the level at 60 because that is what i know)

    Anything in particular you like to do with your awesome gm powers? (moonfire spam wins)

      I need to look into mods. I didn’t even know that was a thing.

      I have no idea what a gm can do, I made a gm account though.

      I wonder if there are moss that will let me do raids solo.

      I self-hosted a TBC server for short period and I liked being able to crank up the default run speed and increase the drop rate of purple items.
