To be fair the population is obviously decreasing (not to say its in a critical state imo..) and it would probably be wise to merge Zeth'kur and Elysium to sate the whiners and cut down on server costs but Elysium deserves more credit than it's given in this thread. When nerds want to bitch about free-ware community work because it's not tailored to their expectations I'd almost lump them in with gold spammers as far as selfish losers go.

A lot of you are really over looking the life expectancy of Vanilla WoW. This game was never meant to support a bloated population for any significant duration, add the fact that this content is over a decade old and has absolutely no secrets and you've got the reason behind people leaving; there's nothing Elysium can do about it or should be blamed for. Elysium's goal is to provide Vanilla content in a blizz-like fashion for the sake of allowing old gamer to re-live their past experiences and show new gamers the significance of an archaic piece of gaming, and they've doneexactly that. I really don't know how else to put it; this is a boring ass grinding game that W I L L N O T E V E R maintain a huge population, ever, get over it. TLDR; quit bitching or quit playing because Elysium Staff doesn't owe you anything.

This is just stupid. Before the Pserver population exploded 3k at peak time was amazing for a blizz-like x1 rates realm of any expansion, average being like 500-700 on each faction and the server was in a healthy state. Whining about a population hitting 1,200 with a 50/50 H/A ratio (as Zeth'kur has) is extremely ignorant to the reality of what a healthy WoW population is. And Elysium has had 7k+ players online today (Thursday) with a H/A ratio of 50/50 (more or less) so what exactly are you bitching about? That you can actually complete a drop quest without having to compete with 200 others players at the same time? Poor baby. Furthermore, Zeth'kur provides the same content/patching as Elysium without the bloated population which is what some people prefer. Now that the quality of these servers have increased, drastically, and are attracting thousands of players you new guys want to freak out every time the population drops. Most people aren't going to stick around and play this game non-stop all year long. It's unrealistic to think the population of any realm will remain a static number after the current content gets old; noting that the population will again spike as new content is released. Here's a TLDR link to all the population/ratio/zone stats you'll ever need for Elysium: http://vanillaradar.com/elysium-stats/elysium/ Now shut up already.

I guess I'll be rolling H on a more populated server then. Thanks

If I roll Horde as a Shaman/Healer will I spend a great deal of time looking for a tank for lower level dungeons? Long being greater than 25mins

Awesome build all the way around. I'm going to roll it right now. Thanks!

Usually I use Atlasloot Enhanced to view all the craftable items of a profession but that doesn't seem to exist in 1.12.1 so if anyone has something similar or better they know of please share ^^ I don't need a link to the addon just a name and I'll find it my self. Thanks you
