KBet 0 Report post Posted March 23, 2017 Hey all, I have been playing wow since vanilla. I am no longer enjoying the game (Legion) and I'm looking to come to private servers for that originality from back in the day. How many current users are playing? Is it enough to PVP and Raid efficiently? Is it 100% vanilla? No queues? or do they have pvp and pve queues? I'm sure I have plenty of other questions I will think of as i go. Please let me know! So i can join in and play. Thanks all! 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Poly 1 Report post Posted March 23, 2017 Hi there and welcome. To see the current population you can always check out the realm status tab on the mainpage. There are four different servers to chose from - all of them offer a big enough community to socialise, raid and PvP with (Zeth'Kur is the smallest realm with 1-2k pop depending on time). Now to your second question. You won't ever find a privatserver that is 100 % blizzlike, it is just not possible to perfectly recreate this game with a group of volunteers. So no, it isn't - but it's quite close. However, there is no lfr or any other feature added by Blizzard in later expansions if that's what you meant. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brisies 0 Report post Posted March 23, 2017 Welcome to the Time-Traveling Machine that will take you to Vanilla! As Poly previously stated some of the answers you were seeking ill go into a bit more for you as well. 1. Currently the 4 servers are alive and have a decent size community on them. To go further in depth with the populations of each... Anathema (Old Nostalrius PVP) - Was the largest server here until Elysium Server released. It peaked at 10k prior to this, now however I have heard its down into the 5000 range? *Someone correct me if I am wrong* This server just got AQ40 WAR EFFORT Darrowshire (Old Nostalrius PvE) - Was the first and only PVE server here. It has currently a slightly higher than average Vanilla Population with around 2.5-3k at peak times. The life is still there. This server just got BWL PATCH. Elysium PVP - The Newest Server of the pack is the largest server this project has now. In peak times it can gather from 7-9k players. The server is currently in patch 1.3 so its a fresh start and MC is ripe for the raiding. This server will be getting PATCH 1.4 SOON! Zeth'gur PVP - Elysiums sister server was a result of massive influx of players from all servers migrating to a fresh new start on Elysium. Its life has dwindled since release and now has a population around 2000 players. This server will be getting PATCH 1.4 SOON! 2. As Poly mentioned this is the closest you can get to a Blizzlike server. Everything is reverse engineered and studied to make sure it acts almost as it did on life many many moons ago. Things do get changed such as AQ 40 Silithid fragment drops AQ 40 War Effort supplies requirements Population densities Dynamic Respawns and a few others. All in all we do have a nice community here, aside from the typical community drama that follows any MMO, its a great place to play and have fun. You can raid, you can BG with short ques sometimes depending on your faction, and you will almost not see a login que now. So hopefully you join us and enjoy the game the way it was meant to be! 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
