Seeing a few posts on here, it seems like there is a decent amount of players who would like to see a dedicated PvP server. I agree with this and wouldnt mind seeing Blizz allow 1 server for pvp players. As others have stated in the past, there is no need to join it, if you are not interested in this type of gameplay. But for others, it may be the experience they are looking for.

Please post in the thread that already exists. More support there would probably make a better case for a real pvp server than a bunch of threads with few replies saying more or less the same thing.

Im not trying to ruffle any feathers, just stating that I think its a good idea for those who are interested in that type of gameplay

This would be great. I’m sure before long, however, there will be uninformed people coming in here saying WPvP is dead, it is only a gankfest, PvP only happens when the outcome is a forgone conclusion, nothing but a griefer’s paradise, etc. etc. Of course, reality begs to differ, but they will post that nonsense advertising their ignorance nonetheless. The only thing that would make such a sever not fun is if the faction imbalance gets too big. Keeping it to one server will greatly help that situation though.
I think if a server is full of experienced pvp players, there will be less problems. And as for ganking, most players can go from lvl 1-70 very quickly, so its not as much of an issue anymore.

With how many “full PvP” games die on release, and how classic PvP servers sort themselves into a one-sided affair in short order every time, I can pretty comfortably say that the audience for a retail PvP server is too small to be worth it.

Grobbulus is almost perfectly balanced and is one of the most active pvp servers in classic

Season of Discovery servers have enforced faction balance. We can do the same.

It’s a silly idea, but sure why not…as long those on the PVP server are never allowed to lead a cross-server group because there is no reason to force PVE players onto the PVP server if they group with PVP players.
I agree. Make it a stand alone server. Nobody will be forced in to PvP

Honestly World Events is proof we need a PvP server.
As a world player who likes the danger and surprise of other player interactions. I go to a World Event and find it… empty?
I would have to join a group? Fine. Oh they only want War-mode off?
So you are telling me to fly back and forth each time I want to do a World Event? Then I need to fly back to turn it back on?
If War Mode didn’t exist, players would adapt and learn to work together until the event is over (most of the time). This dynamic player choice and interactions is why I enjoy this game. Pure PvE is mind numbing.
Now? It’s frankly annoying.

I agree. I think even some PvP players now, keep war mode off because it causes major inconveniences to gameplay. Even though they want to be part of world pvp. And not to mention the sharding is very bad.

Ya, enabling War-mode is like enabling hardcore.
Imagine if hardcore servers allowed you to opt out but still play on the server?
This is basically the same thing in practice

Warmode is your PvP server. GG tough luck not happening on Retail.
Then perhaps say it on the posts that already exist? Just to add support there and make those posts stand out with their numbers.
Hmm,full pvp server ,yes,take them all there.
