Proposal: Permanent Burning Crusade Legacy Servers for WoW Classic Players
Why TBC Deserves a Dedicated Server
I know I’m not alone in saying that The Burning Crusade (TBC) is one of the best expansions in World of Warcraft history. It offered an incredible balance of content, progression, and nostalgia that many players still cherish today. However, there is currently no official way to play this expansion unless you rush through it on temporary progression servers or resort to private servers.
I understand Blizzard’s focus on keeping Classic moving forward, but I believe there is a demand for permanent TBC servers. Many players, like myself, don’t always have time to grind at a fast pace but still want to enjoy this version of WoW at their leisure.
The Burning Crusade Legacy Servers – Key Features
A dedicated TBC Classic experience that:
Stays True to the Original – Authentic gameplay, minimal class changes, and the same progression system.
Small QoL Enhancements – Optional visual upgrades, minor bug fixes, and slight quality-of-life improvements.
Affordable Subscription Model – Perhaps a lower-cost sub option (e.g., $10/month) to keep it accessible.
Light New Content (Optional) – Maybe a new dungeon or lore-friendly questlines without breaking the original feel.
Wrath of the Lich King Legacy Server Option – If successful, a dedicated WotLK server could also be added.
The goal isn’t to overhaul the game but to provide a stable, official home for TBC enthusiasts who want to relive the experience without being forced to move on to later expansions.
Who Would Play This?
Casual players who want to enjoy TBC at their own pace
Veterans who prefer the original endgame content over later expansions
Newer players who never got to experience TBC but want to
Anyone who loves the PvP, dungeons, and raids of TBC and would pay to play it
Many of us have even played on private servers just to revisit this expansion. Why not let us support Blizzard instead?
How Blizzard Can Implement This
Host 1-2 dedicated TBC servers under World of Warcraft Classic.
Keep character progression locked at TBC endgame instead of transitioning to WotLK.
Offer a fair, sustainable payment model—whether through a lower-cost sub, one-time access, or Classic’s current model.
We don’t expect constant updates—just a stable, official way to keep playing the game we love.
