This is because Seal of Blood is just flat-out better than the Alliance version, so this is being done to preserve faction balance. Alliance paladins will get access to Seal of Blood, which was originally just for Horde paladins.This just means raids in Burning Crusade Classic will be more difficult as bosses will deal more damage and have more HP. Because WoW Classic's raiders are too good, Blizzard will be using the pre-nerfed versions of Burning Crusade's raid bosses.So while it'll largely be the Burning Crusade you remember from 2007, some things will be different.

While WoW Classic was originally a faithful remake of 2006-era WoW, Burning Crusade Classic is making some improvements to try and cater toward a more modern audience. (Image credit: Blizzard) You mentioned Blizzard is also making changes? It'll essentially just be a carbon copy of your original character. Blizzard has also confirmed that, for a fee, you can clone a character so you can play it both on WoW Classic and Burning Crusade Classic servers. All the current WoW Classic servers will continue onto the Burning Crusade, while players who want to stay with Classic will be moved over to a new set of vanilla servers where they can continue playing WoW Classic. When Burning Crusade Classic launches later this year, every player will decide if they want to continue onto The Burning Crusade era or stay in the Classic era, where the level cap is 60. It's your choice which one you want to play on. See, Burning Crusade Classic and WoW Classic (which recreates WoW as it existed in 2006) will actually be two separate games. This is where it gets slightly complicated. So how does this work? What if I like WoW Classic?

Horde players can play paladins and Alliance players can play shamans.

A much more focused PVP experience with the addition of arenas.

A whole new continent to explore with some gorgeous and memorable areas.

But if you're already playing WoW Classic and having fun, Burning Crusade Classic is going to be amazing. Classic is about stepping back in time, and, just like WoW Classic, many of Burning Crusade's rough edges will be what people love the most about it. It's a very different game to modern WoW, but it also does a much better job of forcing players to socialize and cooperate.

Like Classic, it's a relic of a different time when MMOs were a lot less accessible and a lot more demanding of your spare time. By today's standards, I'd actually rate The Burning Crusade as WoW's worst expansion. The Burning Crusade was WoW's first-ever expansion, so obviously that's a big deal. So, what's the deal with The Burning Crusade?
