Can we have an update on this subject? These world buffs have been disabled for long enough, it would be great to see them back available at all times. Or at the very least, confirm they will be disabled forever in Naxxramas so those few who want them can just deal with it quietly.

You sure are stubborn as hell about this argument, aren't you? It's not up to us to decide the minimum amount needed to run a PvE Server, we will all have diferent opinions on these numbers. Just imagine I say at least 2000 players online at all times, while you say 1000 and another random says 3000. Who's right then? What did you achieve by getting the numbers out of their mouth then? It's up to the Elysium Staff to decide whether or not Darrowshire is worth keeping, by checking the costs and the amount of players interested in playing. Stop asking for numbers. As for my opinion, I say just merge Darrowshire with the other 2. Don't waste money.

It's pointless talking about whether or not it would be good or bad. The merge is actually happening at some point (doesn't matter when), so there isn't much left to say.

That's great, looking forward to that.

Does this mean you're going to speed up Elysium content release in order to have all 3 current realms at the same patch as soon as possible and then release a single TBC server where you can tranfser from all 3 realms? Well, I guess this confirms Anathema has to wait for Elysium now.

When you make such statements, you need proof to back up your words. I'd be the first to be happy if what you said was true, but I find it really hard to believe it unless you show me some sort of official statement that confirms it.

Exactly. I've seen a very good amount of people stating that "it's for the greater good, we need to wait in order to fix the problems!". The truth is, I seriously don't think they realize what are the consequences of taking that path. TBC doesn't follow right after Naxxramas is released, which means this server would release either at the very end for 2018, or early in 2019. Is it the best option in order to fix the different timeline problem? Probably. Is it a reasonable path to take? Hell no, I don't even know if I'll still remember about the Elysium project by that point.

There's too many things we don't know, most of them already mentioned by you. The staff should definitely say something about it sooner rather than later cause no one has no idea how it will turn out. Even though they said all of that, nothing is still set in stone. That's just their original plan, which is still subject to changes. I really doubt that Elysium will follow right after Anathema, simply because the only time for them to have TBC is when they get their own Naxxramas patch, which is scheduled to be released around September 2018. It doesn't make sense to let them transfer to their own TBC server before completing vanilla. And that's why they might change their mind and just make Anathema wait for Elysium to catch up, then release a TBC server where everyone gets to transfer. Personally, that is such a bad outcome for Anathema players because they'd have to wait till 2019, I doubt they will farm Naxxramas and wait patiently for so much time.

Quote from the original post in the announcement sections. Can you explain to me again how did they not say "Anathema first"? Thank you.

What does that have to do with the fact that they were joking? They were playing with you because of your choice of words in your title. Anyone with even just a tiny bit sense of humour would have understood that. The first time I read this post I was like "oh look, they're playing with him, kek", and then I saw you raging all over cause they called you weirdo. Did that seriously hurt your feelings for making you react like this?

My respect, just take it. It's yours.

First of all, @Forest_ was obviously joking cause of the title. He was just being sarcastic since it's commong knowledge that most people are excited for TBC. I'm fairly sure it's the same story for @FEYAARES. Either way, it's still wrong to just go full retard and be rude to others cause they "provoked" you (and what they said is hardly provoking). Not to mention that you've been rude to @Ickus too, who has not been sarcastic like the other two and gave you a totally legittimate answer. Why would you go so far for nothing?

By @FEYAARES. By you. By @Ickus By you. Please explain in detail how they provoked you first when they both only replied normally to your post, sharing their opinion on the subject until YOU started being rude.

None of the current servers will become a TBC server. Instead, when the time is right, they will release a new TBC server and allow people to transfer there with their characters from Anathema (and eventually Elysium probably, but Anathema will probably be first). That's the plan for now, but nothing is set in stone and is subject to changes.

You're saying that you only asked one thing and a bunch of nerds attacked you because of it, but the truth is that you actually provoked them first, telling them they have no idea what they are talking about and that they know less than you, or even by saying rude things like "why are you respected when you speak so much 'poo'". After all that, you come back saying they attacked you just for asking if they were excited about TBC or not?

You are already wrong, since it would be at least 100% 1, which is me. Either way, I've seen plenty of times this argument, and to be honest it always comes from the players who can barely keep up with consumables. Ofcourse you would want everything to be removed, you have nothing to lose, so why would you care about the others, right? Don't worry though, even in the case they decide to do something about this, there will always be around it (except if they just remove it). If they place a cap on each account, I'll just ask my friends to keep some of it and then trade it back to me after the copy/transfer.

And how should that prevent us from speculating?

Because that's literally all there is to it. I really don't know what else to say on the subject other than "I rather have worldbuffs available". I don't feel like I need a reason for wanting something. But I suppose I should try and explain anyway, let's see if I can think of something. Personally, I don't mind the whole process behind grabbing the world buffs before a raid. I've heard people saying "Finally I don't have to stay offline and I can play my character instead of 'raidlogging'!". Well, I have a feeling that even without having to get world buffs, they probably wouldn't play the game anyway cause there is no real reason to log in apart from farming consumables. To be honest, gathering world buffs makes the people play more rather than encouraging raid logging even more. Also, I enjoy having the increased stats from all these buffs and I don't really get demotivated if I lose them at some point, it just happens. It's not a big deal to me though, if they decide to disable them permanently, too bad I guess. But if I could choose between the two, I'd pick everyday having world buffs enabled. It's just a matter of preferences, and personally having them disabled permanently or even only enabled during DMF week, is an idea I simply do not like, but I'll deal with it since it seems the majority wants this change to happen.

Because we as human beings are all different, and we have different tastes. I enjoy playing with world buffs, you don't. And that's totally fine, if you want to have world buffs disabled and want to push for this feature to be a permanent thing, go ahead, just don't judge others for doing the exact opposite because they like the exact opposite of what you do. I'm fairly sure I'm allowed to enjoy the game the way I want the most, and if that includes raiding with world buffs, what is wrong with that?

The chances of Elysium going into TBC before it finishes its course are very slim. According to the timeline, Elysium should have Naxxramas released around September 2018. If you take into account that they won't release TBC 1 month after Naxxramas, it's safe to assume that Elysium should have TBC at the start of 2019.

I really doubt there are any actual arguments to make on this subject. I prefer to raid with world buffs, you don't. What is there more to say?

I'm not entirely sure who are you referring to, but I play only on Anathema.

Puoi contraddirmi quanto vuoi, e personalmente sarei felice di sbagliarmi ma la vedo molto dura. Ho loggato qualche volta un po di giorni fa per vedere com'era la situazione e mi sembrava praticamente uguale, se non peggiorata. Il numero di player totali era aumentato (sui 135 mi pare?), ma allo stesso modo lo erano anche i player inattivi da più di 2 settimane (che di preciso erano sui 60). In mezzo a questi non ho messo dentro anche quelli inattivi da piu di 1 settimana in quanto è ancora presto decidere se hanno smesso o no, ma anche li saranno stati un 10-15. Senza contare poi i svariati secondi pg della gente, il numero totale di player effettivi che ho visto da voi erano a malapena 50-60, di cui la maggior parte lv MOLTO basso. Il fatto che ci sia gente invogliata a cappare velocemente per fare l'end game è una cosa si positiva, ma allo stesso tempo è allarmante perché alcuni di questi potrebbero non essere disposti ad aspettare chissà quanto tempo (svariati mesi direi) prima che tutti gli altri siano pronti. Ognuno è libero di avere il ritmo che preferisce indubbiamente, ma non sono abbastanza sicuro che la gente interessata VERAMENTE a fare i raid sia disposta ad aspettare così tanto. Vedremo come va nei prossimi mesi, ma personalmente non ho tanta fiducia. Poi ripeto, sarei felice di sbagliare e vedere una gilda italiana che fa i raid.

I really don't like this idea, but I guess we'll just have to wait and see what they decide to do.
