Yo is the Warmode on rp realm only shared with other rp realm ? If yes, it’s real lame and I’ll stay on mine.
PS: Nice of you blizz to insult once again the AWC and its competitors.
It would be so because rp realms actually rp. Getting people from non rp realms on your shard would be very annoying for immersion. The same applies to their warmode shards.

Lame. Sounds dead. Is there even an active Wpvp population ?
Argent Dawn is big enough not to be linked to any other RP realm. However the other RP realms don’t have as large a population so those are linked up.
You can see all the connected realms here

I don’t see the sense of it. On stormscale in WM i’m linked to many realms, not only Stormscale as it’s shown there. Am I missing something
Stormcale is not connected to any other realms. However it is not an RP realm, it is a Normal realm.
So when you go into the world in WM on or off you will see other players from any realm in WM on or off that are put into your shard with you.
These are the English RP realms
So in WM on Argent Dawn for example, I’d be on the same shard as other RP realms, but not normal ones.
Is it still good for wpvp or am I better off on Normal ?
Argent Dawn is a big RP server, it is not connected to any other RP servers. The Alliance is the largest proportion of the playerbase on that realm so it is a double advantage having WM on. You will rarely have to fight any Horde and you get the 20%+ bonus to XP and other benefits.
I don’t care about the WM buff, I just need some nice Wpvp, so if theres just no horde, there’s no point really
You can get a rough idea of server balance on sites like
It will give the joint populations of connected realms and they are indicated by a CR next to the server name.
Yeah, roughly 70/30. I’ll ask on both sides on the realm directly but it seems like a dead end
This would seem the closest RP set
Alright, thanks for the intel

Best of luck 
So with wm on, argent dawn wm shards are separate from other rp wm shards? I thought war mode rp shards were pooled from all rp realms?
I gotta say, moving off defias rp to a normal realm improved my wm experience a lot. Normal wm shards are much more active than rp ones.

Yes.
There is active wm and quite balanced since many ppl from AD turned off WM but its not even close to normal ones.
Really? I seem to find people from Defias all the time when i turn WM on.
Then those people were invited over by someone on AD.
RPers really dont like to be sharded automatically with non-rp realms.
I was on argent dawn and never really saw any horde when lvling. I always lvl with warmode on.
