YES.
I’m on Crusader Strike-PvP and would be ecstatic to be able to transfer to Wild Growth-PvE. At this point, people don’t play SoD Era for PvP, but to log on for a weekly raid.
Having both Crusader Strike + Wild Growth server populations merged together would create a healthier population, more raids, and a better overall experience. What would i give to have a Feral Druid signup for my raids that isn’t someone’s multiboxing fresh lvl 60 there to provide wild strikes for the raid!

Fully merging PvP and PvE server can be problematic, but at least make cross-server raid/dungeon group, maybe cross-server auction
Merge servers into one allow cross faction raiding , dungeon and world chat. Add dwarf shaman and undead paladin. Make bg give reals also make them mixed so everyone get the same queue timer.
i was against this but yeah just merge the servers and give us war mode with 40% more gold and resources and experience with war mode enabled
No war mode no one will do any wpvp just a zone for duels since we will be able to do crossfaction groupes however double honor from all the bgs and swap the bgs mark for real. Add the bloodmoon gear to a new vendor but with bgs marks so players can purchase the right pvp trinket and mounts.
/who 1-60
found as low as 16 people one time
one stack of runecloth on the AH
flask up to 100g
Yes, its time for connected realms or Free character transfers
war mode with a very heavy incentive to turn it on imo. 40% more gold and loot from mobs, and 40% more resources from herbing and mining nodes. with all servers merged
In thoery it’s an amazing idea but in fact the only pvp that i get in Wildgrowth is when i ask players for duels they do accept true but asking them to tag pvp will probably never happen and there’s wbuff allowed in open world who will discourage people. What should be done is bgs incentive and access to bloodmoon gear via bgs marks. Some gold via bgs too. We will also need mixed bgs and dwarf shaman and undead paladin. I’m gonna say it sod is much better than private servers. So let it be please. Open the gates. #savesod.
dude if there was an incentive us crusader strike players would leave war mode on if they merge the servers war mode is the only way. bgs totally need an incentive too there should be undermine reals dropping from bgs and level up raids
If you say so then i don’t mind war mode if people do use it for real. It’s a personal take here i could be wrong but as a sod players i feel Blizzard abondon us. Still enjoying it there’s no other version where i have fun and yet i tried and quit all of them.
if theres no reason to enable warmode then ya no one will use it, but if u get 40% extra resources from nodes and gold/drops from mobs then alot of pvp players will farm stuff. on the pvp server the only pvp i run into is annoying players camping new avalon
It’s dead Jimmy

I raid 2-4 time a week. I can go for more if i want too. It’s fine you can think so and asking for help from dev is ok too.
Just merge the servers, there is no PvP right anyways so warmode or not were all going down with the ship. We’re all literally arguing with a wall, it won’t matter if there’s no one left on either server.

Doesn’t make sense now. Everyone who farm resources will enable it, but it means nothing because with current population (even if servers will be merged) almost all farming spots are not contested, so this mode will be just +40% extra resources with 0 competiton anyway
well u cant force pve players on to the pvp server or else they will cry. might aswell give us pvp players a reason to flag
I think this is why FCM’s should just be opened for all servers.
PvE → PvP and also PvP → PvE.
Just let the players decide what should be the SoD “hub” moving forward. Players will gravitate towards where there are more numbers, just to even play the game. As someone who plays on Crusader Strike-PvP, I would be PUMPED to go to the more populated Wild Growth-PvE server.
While morning timeframes aren’t the best judge, alliance populations right now at 8am ST are as follows:
- Crusader Strike: 21 total alliance players
- Wild Growth: 93 total alliance players online
Combining these groups together gives you over 100 players on at non-peak times, which is a decent enough mass to put groups/raids together.
In fact, all that really needed is 2 things:
- cross server grouping for dungeons/raids
- cross-server auction (yes you can say that economy works different way on PvP and PvE servers, but in reality all farming spots are uncontested so it really doesn’t matter now)
Warmode is hard to properly do in classic (it is either making 2 layers for WM off/on that’s too much for sod with current population, or 1 layer but it will look strange that with warmode you can attack some players but can’t attack others). So just make cross server grouping and auction,it will solve most of problems
