So I’m from Moon Guard and Wyrmrest Accord, but I’m interested in possibly making characters on Emerald Dream, I was hoping anyone from the server could answer a few questions for me about it, namely:
Is there RP on both Horde or Alliance, or is it mostly situated on one side?
Is there active city/tavern RP? (On MG and WrA there’s a lot of RP that happens in the cities as a whole and oftentimes particularly in taverns in Stormwind and/or Orgrimmar.)
How friendly is the community?
Are there many guilds that raid, or is non-RP mostly focused around PvP? (I know you guys were an RP-PvP server pre-War Mode.)
If anyone could answer any of these questions for me, I’d appreciate it, and it’d help me figure out if trying out Emerald Dream would be right for me. Thank you in advance!
Good morning! You can definitely find what you are looking for. Various guilds do raiding, pvp, wpvp and rp-pvp. Walk up rp took a hit with sharding, but more effort is being put into bar nights and regular use of the cities. Events are always being scheduled.
If you look for the forum post Horde PSA events just down below, you can see some upcoming events and the discord and in game community information for both Horde and Alliance. The discord for both sides is a vital way to find out more about the guilds of ED, and make quick contact with a bunch of friendly people who will welcome you with open arms.
Hope to speak more soon!

There’s RP on both sides to be had - a lot of it is organized events so check out the #events channels in both the Alliance and Horde RP Discords for ED.
The community is very friendly and inclusive, just pop in and see who’s around and what kinds of groups are out there.
ED has a good mix of PvP-specific, Raiding-specific, RP-specific and a mixture of all of the above. Most guilds have a stronger focus on 2 out of the 3, so I’d recommend rolling with a group that suits your preferred playstyle the most.
Playing here a good bit for the past few years I would say yeah there is rp but (Atleast horde side) its moreso secluded to a few particular guilds that do it. Trade chat (as I know is true on most servers) ) can be pretty toxic a lot of the times.
I never understood why people think that Trade Chat is indicative of anything. It’s like judging a restaurant’s food based on the nonsense written in the bathroom stall.
