Questions regarding starting here
Posted: 03 Aug 2018 16:21
Hey,
I'm thinking of either starting or transferring a character to either of the realms here and wanted to get some info that I can't seem to find while surfing your forum and site.
Population: I see the server stats on the site (very useful BTW), and it seems rather split between both servers. I'm more of a WotLK but see that the BC server is currently busier. Is it worth playing on either server? A bit of both? I chose the Primal icon as it seems the more common (and seems to have a slightly more active population). I see between 500-700 players on each realm. Is it enough to find people for simple dungeons with both Horde or Alliance?
Pay-to-win: I can't see any but just wanted to be sure; no items of any sort can be bought by players correct?
If I transfer a character from another private server I see you need to log in to review it and I read somewhere "clear the data". Does that mean that once you've got all the information you'll delete the character on the previous private server? (it's called a transfer I know, but I still wouldn't expect that)
Raiding: do raids take Pick-ups/are PuG raids organised? I ask as I have a lot of raiding experience from retail (Vanilla => WotLK) but no longer have the availability. I can't sign up for a raid a week in advance or be 100% to show up for weekday evening raid when I have other responsibilities now. Hence I would avoid joining a raid guild that would just get annoyed at me being inconsistant, thus my question (PS: I don't expect to be taken on a free ride, if I come raiding I come with the best gear available to me at that point with consumables and fully repaired. Old school Vanilla raiding kinda stuck with me)
I appreciate the time anyone takes to answer my questions even though I'm still on the fence regarding joining one of these servers. Thanks!
