WoW: Hardcore in Classic Fresh - intentional and unintentional deaths of streamers
As you know, Blizzard offers a Warmaster variant of the hardcore playstyle for WoW Classic: Season of Mastery: You can mark your character for the iron path at level 60, but if you meet your demise, it's not necessarily the end. You can even clean the punishing debuff quite easily. Only the hardcore Way of Life will no longer be available to you.
A whole lot more exciting is what parts of the community have made out of it with their "Road to Ragnaros" hardcore event . The goal is to clean up Molten Core with all the new mechanics and restrictions (keyword: world buffs). The gimmick: if you die, you delete your character and start over. The whole thing is checked with the Hardcore Companion addon, which automatically notifies all users of the mod when a participating character has wandered into nirvana.
Only the best die young
But before it comes to Ragnaros and Co., the participating players must first bring their characters to level 60 and then selectively equip them. The first speedrun pros have already successfully completed the leveling phase. However, not all players have had this much success.

No joke. The level-43 Frostie from Esquire got as far as Tanaris, after all. But AoE farming, which is very popular there, is also associated with a certain risk. One careless Nova is enough:

And he was only level 10, and pigs are deadly, it's well known. And of course he "clicked". He probably wanted to use the laying on of hands. I get it.
