The AQ40 Event is one of the biggest events in WoW’s history from a game play and lore perspective. Everyone should have the opportunity to play the event as its a twice in a life-time experience, larger realms that are not layered are going to be completely unplayable during the event and outside of the most hardcore of guilds they aren’t even going to be able to get into the zone because of zone limit.
I urge you to re-think you’re stance on layers so more people can enjoy/see the event on live servers rather than live vicuriously through streamers that are lucky enough to not get booted out of silithus.

Layering is trash. Queues have never negatively impacted me and I’m a very active player on Herod.

Are you worried about the mount? Very few people are going to get it regardless, because your guild has to carry you and only you.
lol, OP literally just wants to be part of the event. did you even read the post or just post something negative cause of the title?
anyway - if you jumped into the aq gates test - it was unplayable - just sayin OP’s request isn’t a bad one for a temporary event.

All that would accomplish is allowing the “mega” guilds multiple times to complete the event and get the limited reward items. It is a bad idea, it would be abused.

most of the mega servers are already layered.
You must have missed the AQ test on the PTRs…unplayable.
OP has a legitimate concern.

This was the closest thing to Vanilla that I have experienced in Classic so far 
That’s cool…
I personally don’t want to get stuck, hovering over the wyvern/gryphon master for 45 mins until I D/C…every time I fly into Silithus.
But…then again…I’m a man of simple pleasures.

watching Asmon play it on the PTR was atrocious. he couldnt even do anything it was lagging so bad. servers must be from 2004 too. truly the classic experience.

They fixed that issue specifically during the PTR test.
Anyway they already confirmed that the system will automatically port people out of Silithus when it’s “full.” No layering necessary.

Ahhhh that’s good to hear!
I would %1000 prefer no layers…
…but I also don’t want to be stuck at negative latency/frames for a week while they figure their ish out.
No, don’t layer it. Allow the people on high population servers to get the true, 1/5 FPS experience of the original release!

Layering is great. All of the positives of layers far out weigh the downsides. Especially on mega servers. Only type of person who don’t like layers are the type of people who are deluded and think the game is all about them.

You were only stuck for 45 minutes? You were lucky!

I literally couldn’t care about the mount. The Event itself is awesome, tons of PvP a 10 hour war, and a massive server achievement. Getting kicked to the zone border for 10 hours and never being able to even see the event is going to suck for a lot of people.

Well the 10 hour war involves fighting bosses across multiple zones wherever there are hives now. So it was never planned to have everyone at the same place for the entire event.
And a lot of smart raiders will form up in Un’goro and Tanaris during the event to take on these unique bosses just to see what they drop.
