I am not fresh new to wow rp but have mostly only done it on alliance since i have always heard horde rp is dead, guild only, toxic or dead or whatever, but horde is my favorite faction by far.
So im looking for a guild or any tips to rping on horde or the big campaigns and events. I have already made a few characters like a dragonmaw orc warlock, Maghar Shaman and Farraki priest.
was on the wrong character lol this one is on WA
Well it is true that most long form RP on WrA is guild driven it isn’t fair to say it is dead!
There are many guilds that are open to things such as try outs, “audits” of their events so you can get their vibe, and of course there are recruitment faires where you can meet them IC as well!
There’s walk up in both Orgrimmar and SMC. You can find events on various Discords - several per week and most are Horde or cross-faction.
Feel free to pop into the WrA-RP Discord. There’s lots on the calendar and plenty of people to meet and chat with. We’ll be happy to point you in the right direction!

Kirsys server and WCP are both excellent sources to look for guilds for horde rp on WRA! Honestly the server is very active with many of WRA’s discords having calendars that showcase plenty of events! ht tps://discord.gg/5VmZJx5a (idk how to link discords in forums like Kirsy did haha)
Also, if you go to Orgrimmar and offer to build them some chairs for free I believe you’ll be crowned the new Chieftain.
I don’t make the rules but that’s how it goes.
Horde RP is only dead if you’re listening to MG Alliance, which. They honestly don’t know what they’re talking about.
WrA is more event-focused, yes, but there are plenty of public events. And the narrative of WrA Being Guild-Only has existed since WoD, and walkup has always been plentiful. Most people on WrA would rather look for long-term connections and plotlines, so we’re not “sit afk in the city hoping that someone approaches and does all the RP’ing for us” types, so that’s kinda why guilds are the preferred option. However, it really isn’t that hard to join RP guilds? Most guilds I’ve joined have been very welcoming.
Sometimes, I don’t think people get the usefulness of events. They are a good place to ease yourself into the waters, so to speak. I understand they aren’t everyone’s cup of tea. I’ve always recommended them to people as a way to meet people and make contacts. -IF for no other reason than people are more apt to start up a conversation with a familiar name.
I come across a TON of walkup around the wyvern’s tail.
A great way to get RP is to go around mispronouncing “Orc” until you enrage someone into interacting.
There’s always lots of walk-up opportunities around the Tail, especially in the evening.
And even better, it seems like Silvermoon RP is back! I’ve been so sad for years that the city was empty. I don’t know when exactly it happened, but the city seems to always have big groups there now. WRA Horde now has two locations full of walk-up opportunities.
The downside to the events is new players are not familiar with the numerous Discord channels. That can change by cross posting all of the Discord calendar events on this forums so they are all in one place. Realistically, it is not feasible for me to break out my spread sheet with the links to all the Discords for WRA then share them in a chat bombardment.
Very true. Back in my day, we didn’t have the Discords… (old person grumbling)
For a server that some people say is dead, we sure do get up to a lot.
lmao for real, I think a lot of folks think the be-all-end-all for RP is city RP. City RP is fine and is important to maintaining the health of the overall community but there’s value in close knit groups.
I mean, not that far off from say IRL DnD groups. Your local gaming store with space and pick up groups are fun and important for building community. Yet there’s tons more that play privately at someone’s home you may not be aware of.
Yeah. It’s also a misconception of the server from Around Shadowlands, when most people Did unsub. But we’re steadily growing, even on the Alliance side (though please, continue rolling Horde on Wyrmrest if you wish to do world pvp, we need more soldiers thank u).
