What server is right for me?

AngelboundAngelbound Member, Newbie CommonPosts: 1,437

Hi all a friend convinced me to get back into wow since the expansion is out and from what it sounds like, I think it will be a better experience for me. But this time I want to start on a fresh server with the majority to be mature and friendly, so if anyone could tell me what servers are like this I would appreciate it.

I know every server has its bad apples,  I dont need another wow community is bad lecture no offense anyone. I just want a simple answer and if it helps im central time. By the way so far I have been on blackhand normal server and an rp server I didnt like niether espically the rp server because people would take it way to far and mess up my groups, I like to rp and dont judge anyone who does but geesh that server was just plain crazy.

    Honestly, you've picked a rough time to join. With the expansion came every yahoo you could think of. As for new servers, you should either go with Auchindoun, Coilfang, or Blood Furnace (all three are PVP). From my experience, Blood Furnace seems pretty level on the Horde side. Alliance side is probably even better, considering most are playing on Horde right now.

    In any case, please don't be against going to a PvP server due to the circumstances you'll be facing. You'll meet some solid people, often times during clashes with the opposing faction. Early on, it will probably be tough, but soon the excitement of battle will take priority to the safety of your toon. Believe me, that's a good thing.

    What pvp server do you recommend? I do believe you but I did try arthas and didnt like the people there no one wants to group/work together and thats why I play online games mainly to play with others cooperative play.

    Easily Blood Furnace. I rerolled there myself, and it was a good call by all means. For the Horde, it puts my old server to shame. People actually will drop what they're doing to help you. More so when PvP is involved.

    If you do come over, send my character Haudvicus a message. Always happy to get new players off to the right start.

    Tortheldrin is also one of the newer pvp servers.  If you are thinking of rolling alliance, expect to be outnumbered on any of the newer servers.  I myself like being the minority faction.  The good thing about tortheldrin is that it was created a couple weeks before BC was released so it is not just a bunch of blood elves/ Draenei running around which can cause a major class imbalance.  If you roll there, look me up.  Torlin - 70 Draenei Priest

    Well if you are looking for "mature and friendly" I would suggest one of the RP servers.  A friend of mine was on a normal server but transferred out and is liking the RP community better.  She says people are more helpful, grouping coming easier and less pvp ganking/griefing.  This could be unique to her server as I never played on an RP server, I stuck to normal ones.

    Thanks torlin I may check it out, first I gotta figure out which toon I want to transfer im still torn between playing my mage or druid to 70. The thing about rp servers I actually played my mage on a rp server called earthen ring and it was worse then the normal server i started on blackhand.

    Ah her RP server was , umm, Sentinels?  I think that was the name.  I was on Windrunner and we got people from Blackhand during server transfers. 

    If you go mage you'll of course never need to buy food or drink, plus the ports are rather nice to get around.  Balance druid can be mage-like if you get the right gear too.  I had both, a junkie for the nukage I guess.
