Realm Choice / LOCKED SEE VOTE

[Sayko]

Hey guys,

Just a post to foster ideas and opinions on the choice of realm for this re-roll guild.

My personal feelings are as follows

1. It should be on a PvP sever if possible as i find these are more fun and open up some world pvp now and again.

2. Severs should be as active as is possible to ensure a good economy.

3. Server should be as balanced as possible between allaince and Horde.


Suggestions so far have Been,

Defias Brotherhood - Questions about if we want to be on an RP realm

Regnaros - Seems ideal, high pop even balance and pvp

Ravencrest: High alliance pop - big ukraine and polish speaking population however which restricts english on the server (Aparently)

Sylvanas: Same as above

Outland: Great server but ques and big alliance dominance i beleive

Let me know what you think.

I have been a part of a reroll guild on defias brotherhood and the community there wasn't an awesome community (at least on horde side)
Ragnaros looks good tho.
Ravencrest isn't balanced.
Sylvanas is a pve realm (i dislike pve realms.)
Queues are gone on outland for now, and so far i've seen it's a nice realm with a lot of wpvp.

We could try our luck on Frostmane, i have played there before. Its a pvp realm with some ok AH prices and a very active alliance side. however its not to good of a horde/alliance split, having 3 alliance to 1 horde.

Took a look on ragnaros tho, seems quite good aswell. tho if i had to be totally honest i mostly hate pvp realms when it comes to the leveling experience. i hate getting ganked by 85's with no life. but if it is the wishes of the other members then i wont mind it.

[Sayko]

I generally keep a lvl 1 char on the opposing faction so i can PM 85's who are ganking me for no reason and just ask them nicely to stop. Generally does the trick. I find pvp realms are more fun later on especially if theres a bunch of you leveling together. But all options and opinions considered

[lialdia]

I would second the notion of a pvp realm. While I do admit to hate being ganked randomly, it's also nice to be able to get the occasional world pvp going, especially when doing it with friends and guildies.

Unfortunately my sub has been canceled for so long that I can't comment on what the servers are like now. Triborn mentioned Frostmane, I used to play a long time on that server before transfering elsewhere to follow a friend. But still got no clue how that server has changed either, so sorry can't really contribute to this but am willing to follow almost anywhere which isn't pve-rp server.

Ragnaros I say.

Ragnaros seems a good choice, I haven't seen Outland queued lately either however that could just be the pre-expansion blues, I'm sure it will be queued again come MoP.

[Lipstic]

Have you considered a low populated realm such as Kor'gall?

I hear there are one or two good pvp guilds that hold events on both sides and the ratio is apparently 1:1.1 Horde to Ali.

If you're only considering full pop servers then I would also recommend ragnaros

[Sayko]

Guilds like this tend to suffer if recruiting from a low pop realm and also the economy and mats available are rubbish. Personally i'd stick high pop

Ragnaros looks like a good choice.

Not tried Ragnoros.

DB I enjoyed, mainly for the odd world PvP and Rp events that were held. Had no bother with community, and made a fair bit of cash off the AH.
Briefly tried Outland, became frustrated with the wait times. Community on a whole was ok. Trade chat reminded me of old Barrens chat. AH was stable. Did have a few times where ganking was a hinderance.


Ok now tried Ragnaros. Trade chat is the usual. Only 1 kiddy spat. AH is nice and active. Made about 200 in a few hours. Cities seem well populated, and always people looking to do things.

So out of the 3, I like DB and Raggy
