A/H balanced server

Could we please organize something to find a server that has a decent A/H balance?? the game is so boring without it

No-one else seems to want one, they destroyed all the servers we had by making them completely and utterly unbalanced. Even now, they seem to like sitting in the Hellfire fortifications, while someone log a level 1 alt to cap them.

I Agree with you… the only reason i went to firemaw was for the faction balance and then all the horde left… like wtf?

All 3 F R E S H servers are quite nicely balanced at the moment. This may of course change in the future.

Im not sure… Thekal seems very alliance dominated and ironforgepro already showing almost 70% ally

come join horde thekal

we need more brothers and sisters to spank these blue noobs

its not so bad yes there are more alli but they also suck more so horde mostly dominate

ironforge pro is very skewed because it only takes data from WarcraftLogs, and only a tiny fraction of the population raids and logs it at the moment. Real proportion is more like 57/43. This unfortunately is likely to change now that there are free transfers to Jin’do. But Jin’do is perceived as sort of low pop, so there is a chance Thekal stays balanced.

It’s not a relevant information anyway because Thekal is locked :smile:

Well I do have a lvl 45 char on thekal… And it seems very alliance heavy, areas that are usually filled with horde are dominated by ally

Don’t think you’ll ever find balanced server. Even in Classic 40:60 was best u could get.

Mograine is closest to balanced and it’s 25:75 (horde favored), but it’ll follow same formula as rest and be pure horde soon enough.

People just don’t like ganking that much, they do pvp in battlegrounds and arenas.

Unfortunately Blizzard’s incopetent developers locked Thekal for new players, even queue is much lower after they opened Jin’do.

I know many Horde players who want to start on Thekal and to help realm balance but Ion Hazzikostas retail dev team doing all possible to sabotage classic WotLK…

Blizzard please UNLOCK Thekal now, you ruin community with any of your action more and more…

Thekal and Jin’do are close to 50/50 balance. Mograine are 1:3 ratio favored Horde.
Ironforge.pro do not show this.
Ashbringer is also balanced but small population.

If not Iroforge, how to check current server balance?

Ashbringer is extra dead realm !!!
First Horde pop moved with paid transfer then Blizzard allowed “exploit” for free transfer and 95% Alliance moved to Earthshaker.

There is some site who gather info from Census+, in case of new realms are pretty accurate atm.

I don’t understand this either. Everyone seems to want faction balance. All my friends do, I do, almost everyone on the forums does… yet the playerbase wants to be on pvp servers without having actual pvp in it… where are those masses of players that prefer mono-faction mega Servers in order to run GDKPs 24/7. They screwed us over and yet noone seems to be one of them?!
Firemaw was awesome… then 90% of horde became sheep and created the biggest Server Screw up in WoWs history. I am baffled

People transfer from Realms because the Game does not work without cross-realm anymore. No one wants to play on a dead realm where they have no mats or options in the AH to make gold or players to que raids or other content with.

Quite ironically, literally everything of Classic thus far has proven to me that every new addition that is so “hated” by classic players made WoW actually survive as long as it did. RDF / proper LFG tool to avoid an absolute maddening /2 spam fiesta that doesnt promote social interaction at all, Cross-Realm to fight dying realms, to see other players and world pvp, personal loot to completly negate an almost pay2win system like GDKP.

This reflects itself on the realm populations and that is also why factions just simply die out on the realms. Add ontop of that that on a PvP realm you get raid entrances and dungeons entrances alike camped and you have a no fun scenario.

Our friends wanted to play on thekal but blizzard locked it, so alot of people moved to Jindo because of that. Come over here, alot of pvp fights in tanaris.

New tool with LFG channel seems to work fine without the RDF teleport mechanic.
Avoiding the LFG channel spam, make a seperate chat window for it.
And if you dont want to be bothered by opposite faction at instance entrances, go play on a Normal server.

You clearly did not get the message.

“If you dont want to be bothered by opposite faction” ← this is one of the reasons why Realms are dead. Imagine a 70 or 75% population (or even worse) on a PvP realm and youre in the minor faction. You barely will make it into the raid. You barely will be able to farm consumables. You barely will be able to do dailys in Isle of Quel’danas.

Thats just how it is. Thats why people transfer. No one wants a dead/low faction realm.

It’s what you have to deal with on a PvP server. All those who transferred should have rolled on a Normal server. Monofaction PvP servers are practically a Normal server. Those players staying there obviously prefer that type of realm.

Its a great example of why Cross-Realm was desperately needed and thankfully Cataclysm invented it.
