During a scheduled maintenance period planned for 9:00 p.m. CEST on 3 September, ending at approximately 5:00 a.m. on 4 September, the following realm connection will be made:
We are planning more realm connections for low-population realms, and we will post further notifications like this one in the coming weeks.
Thank you!
I’m all for new realm connections, but are we certain Sylvanas needs one? It’s always been a high population realm and I fear this may diminish its identity for no reason.
Gz to the lucky realms anyway 
Please consider Nemesis and Pozzo dell’Eternità , the italian community is already slim and we don’t really need for 2 different servers, also Nemesis Alliance side is struggling a lot with 0 guilds that went further than 5/12 M
It’s not for Sylvanas, it’s for the other servers that do need a connection to more life.
Wasn’t Dunemaul a pretty popular realm once upon a time?
Welcome, new friends from Auchindon, Dunemaul and Jaedenar! Hopefully, we’ll also see some Horde guilds in the top20 now. The Horde side was somewhat dead on Sylvanas, ironically.
Lightbringer pleaaaaase 
Stormrage/Azuremyst needs connection asap, we’re dying out like forsaken!
US is getting dozens of realm connections per week while EU gets one or two? Are you focusing first on US and once every realm has a healthy pop you will switch your focus to EU?
Any chance you guys could share your roadmap? Because there are less that 2 months for SL release and many EU realms are still straight up dead.
They’re also doing Russian, German, Spanish and so on. But only English realms are annoucned here.
To quote JĂĄnek from different topic for this week EU gets:
But i agree for english it looks really poor, we have dozens of empty realms.
I was wrong 
They are actually connecting Sylvanas to the cluster of low population realms, and Kirin Tor is also going to be copied it seems like from the posts… that information isn’t shared on the maintenance pages though so you don’t really get confirmation until they make the post.
Worldwide there are 16 connections this week as follows:
EU ENGLISH: Sylvanas connecting to Auchindoun/Dunemaul/Jaedenar
EU GERMAN: Echsenkessel/Mal’Ganis/Taerar Connecting to Blackhand

I really hope Darkmoon Faire and Earthen Ring EU get connected with Sha’tar , moonglade and Steamwheedle.
Please merge all the RP realms (except for Argent Dawn, that one is already big and its own thing) together.
You need to count German/French/Spanish/Italian/Russian realms as EU aswell - because they are. So we have more than 1 connection in EU this week.
They should really connect a bunch of realms daily, but it’s Blizzard. They are like a grandma using a computer for the first time in her life.
Would you prefer that over having the realms you listed connected to the Defias Brotherhood cluster?
In Italy we only have two realms, we don’t ask much… connect us please!
Nah lets leave those alone. Wth u on about, those aint death…
Jokes on you buddy.
Sadly, last I checked (few months back) there was about a single RP guild left, on Alliance. That was for the entirety of Defias et al. It’s been taken over by polish guilds and non-roleplayers in general.
Can you finally connect Malfurion to Tyrande, I’m tired of hearing “Where are you Tyrande? I need you”
