Area 52, Hyjal, Thrall, Or Bleeding Hollow for Horde server

Good Day all

I am interested in making a horde alt that i will be leveling up soon. I want a high population server that is west coast or has a lot of player from the west coast. Community is important to me as i dont have any friends who currently play wow so i hope to find new ones in game.

I want to select one of these realms. Please let me know what one you feel is best… I appreciate you!
Thanks!

Hyjal is lower pop but seems like a good server

Hyjal is lower pop than Area 52, but it’s west coast and high pop. It’s a popular server to transfer to for horde. We have almost no alliance.

Thanks Zoey - I did a trial toon there for a little and seems to still be high population and general overall happy/helpful people

BH is an east coast server. Google search realms by datacenter, I believe A52 is west coast.

I just wanted to point out that the realm, Area 52 is Eastern Time and not Pacific Time. I only know this as I play on this realm. :slight_smile:

Other than that, I enjoy playing on Area 52. Good community and the economy is good as well.

Illidan for sure

I checked data centers and I meant to say west coast as far as time now where the data centers are located.

Thanks though! I know bleeding hollow is a east coast realm.

Area 52. You’ll be able to make friends there pretty fast and easy.

You can also make a trial character and check out those servers for yourself. GL.

Demonsoul Cluster will welcome you

Hyjal was decent… But going to area 52 from there was like going from the sticks to a city.

I tried illidan with a trial toon and man while it’s a bigger server I couldn’t stand the Chinese spam in trade chat. And yes I know there’s an Add on for that but still. Not sure it would be a good place for me.

I appreciate the recommendation though!

Yeah I just love illidan cause of the huge horde raiding scene, but the chinese spam can be annoying haha.

Area52 is super high pop. Its the Horde version of Stormrage. We also have one of the friendliest guilds in wow. Toast. They are so big they have 3 branches. Toast, Toast II, Toast III

I see no reason to pick another server than Area52

Thrall is east coast. It’s either 2 or 3 hrs different from West coast time.

Sounds like I should give it a try at least. How are the queues during expansion release.

That’s the one thing holding me back from already doing it is I’m worried there would be a queue on shadowlands release day for when I would be able to play.

Sooo every horde server…

I enjoyed Area 52. Moved over to WrA out of curiosity and got in with some amazing people, but A52 is still home to my Horde toons and I’ve always been happy with it.

Did you ever notice any queues trying to get on to area 52? During an expansion release or not?

Thanks!

So, what’s the highest pop Horde server on the east coast?
