Hello there.
me and a couple of friends were thinking about starting classic and I was wondering if someone could suggest a good PVP EU server. Is there any such server where people still run the dungeons or is it all just boosting for gold? I used to play on Shazzrha and i couldn’t find a group to do dungeons with for the life of me.
I’m leveling on gehennas and have no probs finding groups and lowbie world pvp.

Gehennas Is the most populated. I guess there will be queues to login during tbc launch
Earthshaker for Overall population, Horde to alliance ratio closest to 50:50 with alliance in the dominant side.

Gehennas, Firemaw, Earthshaker, Sulfuron (but french), they’re many servers for Alliance. Or PvE server if you don’t like PvP (Mirage raceway).
But all servers are full of boosters. There’s no regular dungeons. You’ll find regular dungeons on TBC pre-patch (likely on May), because players will start to reroll Paladin/Shaman for level 1-60 before TBC, so an army of low levels is incoming and Paladin can tank, heal, Shaman can heal to. Lot of dungeons groups are going to be created.
It’s not people want to steal your money, it’s just everyone had already leveled 1 or 2 characters by quests, we know most of the game quests, so doing it for a third time is really annoying (you know how leveling by quest 1-60, mana regen, is really slow in Classic). Hope you can understand why we pay for a Mage to boost some levels, it’s not we don’t want to dungeons with you. In TBC you’ll never struggle to find players for regular dungeons, at level 60-70.

Believe you mean deadfang with 500 PEAK TIME ALLIANCE during weekends, dead worldchat with 1 person monologuing and auction house prices so dumb it puts post WW1 Germany’s economy to shame and the top guild on Alliance that cleared most raids and has Legendaries transferring out.
lets not also forget the constant bodycamping that is happening by Shinzo and other people 15h a day.
Don’t let whiney mc whine face put you off. Dragonfang is a great server and really similar to vanilla with a healthy population and a great server atmosphere. Great Horde/Alliance balance too.
For new starters it’s definitely the best place to start as there’s no massive economy imbalance and in general botting/gold buying is frowned upon (bots reported in Discord and killed by opposing faction)

Dragonfang. Dont let the relative low pop in some level-brackets fool you. People are waiting for prepatch/reroll event/tbc.

I logged now (11:30 AM) on my 10 lvl Dragonfang character which staying in SW. Empty SW (literally empty, only me and human lvl 1 staying at Trade District). Empty Elwynn Forest, no people questing. Empty chat, no messages at all for 15-20 minutes (im staying in SW i remind), even “world” channel is completely dead. What do you call “a healthy population”? And why Dragonfang is great?
On Zandalar Tribe (EU RP-PvP) my guild is full with levelers: 1000 members, 100% active characters, 75% of which are in the leveling bracket (level 10-59).
Are you in a guild ? did you just create a character, get to level 10 and go back to a level 60 or Retail?
Dragonfang is about the community so unless you are part of the community you will not experience the server properly.
Logging on at random times throughout the day is not experiencing the server

It doesn’t take much to do a /who of any city or zone and see how many are around in the morning and get an indication about population health.
On Zandalar Tribe right now, /who shows 20 people in Ironforge and 50 (which is the /who cap anyway, so likely more) in Stormwind. 23 in Elwynn, 12 in Dun Morogh.
But how can I expirience “server properly” with 0 people online in zone i’m leveling? I understand you’r sentence: some people like low pop realms with a few hundreds players on peak and a small friendly community. But you definetely can’t call it “a healthy population”.
Forgot to add, my guild recently set its all-time record of concurrent online guildies, 195 just a few days ago on a monday evening.
I have characters on Zandalar Tribe, and yes the population is massive, but the economy is terrible and fuelled by gold buying raiders who simply inflate everything on the AH.It’s so difficult to farm any resources for crafting etc as they are farmed constantly. Outland day one on ZT would be horrendous.
On Dragonfang the Earth ele’s in Badlands are happily wandering around un-farmed as there is no current raid progression as such as people are working towards TBC and still levelling.
If someone is after a server that offers a ‘feel’ as close to TBC launch as possible then Dragonfang fits that bill in my opinion.
We’re not desperate for people on Dragonfang and the only reason I posted was that I could not understand why the earlier poster was so negative about a server that I have moved to from ZT Horde because it is so much better in terms of community, economy and isn’t overcrowded.
If people just want to join the masses then ZT is also a good option, but go Horde as alliance seem to have a considerable number advantage,
