Maladath is healthy.
Can you define what healthy means? It only has 4200 people playing on it (55% ally, 45% Horde)
With the limit of only being able to boost one time per account, I dont see why they wouldnt let us.
4200 is healthy. That’s more than the average retail server back in the day.
No transfers, no boosts.
Roll a toon and level.
If we go based off the numbers of other PVE classic servers then its not all that healthy imo…
Maladath absolutely dies at 11pm 12:00am est…
and i have leveled, one rogue to 80 and almost have a shaman to 80 as well…
I think they should take several of their PVE servers and just merge them all. Some retail servers have over 37k+ on them and then they get to cross realm. I want the game to feel alive basically anytime I log in…
No, people go to bed, this is normal.
I played most of retail on a 2800 pop server originally and cleared all content.
The server is fine, it doesn’t need to get infected with the toxic garbage from the other mega servers. Unless the transfer policy is super (and I mean super) restricted.
Like 1k gold, and you lose anything you got that hasn’t been available on the fresh servers. Bear mount, not any more. Scarab Lord, nope. CotN and HoA, what are those?
I just want to boost my one time on maladath… why is that too much to ask?
Yes people sleep, but not everyone sleeps at the same time…
Sounds like the activity time on Maladath isn’t working for you and that you want to cheat and use Blizzard’s boosting service.
I believe one of the existing normal classic servers appear to be more your speed.
“cheat”
this community is insane lol.
while leveling on maladath, both times i have done it, has basically been a barren wasteland.
If i wanted to cheat Id go play on a private server haha
Too bad, play the game.
Maladath is the ONE server I’ve played on that has minimal RMT, including Blizzards garbage services.
The bulk of the community that rolled here WANTED THIS. We wanted as pure an experience as possible, and opening transfers and boosts destroys that.
Level another toon if you want another class. If it’s too much work, then you don’t want it bad enough.
Is it to soon to ask for another, but better managed, SoM launch.
So does that mean we have a date when we can finally boost. I don’t care about transfers, never planning on it. What is the date to boost? I just purchased the boost thinking it was past the 90 day mark. When I logged in it says “boosts cannot be used on this realm”. When I decided to come back and play Wrath in the advertising it said after 90 days you would be allowed to boost. When is that date?
Are the 90 days over for fresh servers like maladath?
is the 90 day due.
90 days of WOTLK will be in 1 weeks time. That being said, the community of fresh talked blizzard out of the 90 day rule and they made it at least 90 days, if you look up in this thread u can see them all saying no no 90 days isn’t long enough there should never be transfers or it should be 1 year etc etc.
Just like the situation with aus players & being able to queue for pvp on US servers, Blizzard knew far better than the community but decided to just appease them and do what they wanted anyway. Careful what you wish for.
The lack of population can’t be ignored, things aren’t just normal, a good guess for a healthy realm is 1000 - 2000 population on average with a nice split on alliance horde.
We want incentives for new players.
Maladath has across all levels as seen over the last 14 days according to wow census:
13,565 people (68% alliance and 32% Horde)
5459 of which are level 80 over 1k 80s both alliance and Horde.
According to ironforgepro the alliance and horde raiding pops are dead even with 1.5-1.8k logs last week.
According to your own definition of a healthy realm…it’s got plenty,
Im saying players online
Can you start monitoring the population, observing player behavior, and listen to feedback a little harder?
Maladath’s population is declining rapidly with multiple guilds starting to transfer off. Worthless LFG tool can’t match me to anyone else to do heroics. Can’t find an arena partner. And where is our server forum?? It’s been 90 days. Communicate with your customers and give us an update.
Maladath’s population is fine. Guilds are still running, recruiting, and pugging successfully every week. Including this last week.
I’ve had no problems finding 5 man heroic groups on any day. I’m not sure how you’re running into issues.
Arena is a result of Blizzard destroying casual arena with the rating starting at 0 and not a result of population. I know of no one doing arena because the effort doesn’t equal the reward in any way.
I do agree that the LFG tool is worthless though.
Maladaths population is not fine.
I picture you waking up to a world of fire, getting up from bed, opening the doors to hell to then say “everything is fine”
Still seeing guilds clearing content, still seeing pugs, still seeing leveling groups, still getting into heroics easily.
What in the world is the problem?
Server isn’t locked either, anyone can roll a toon on it and level up just fine.
