So, I am returning to WoW and I would like to play on a new/newer'ish server. However, I would also like a heavily populated server to play on. Can anyone suggest a new server with a high pop? And not a recently opened transfer server either; I'm mainly looking for a new server with not many high level toons or insane economy. Any help would be appreciated :) |

US or EU? If EU I would avoid laughing skull. The auction house listed 11 weapons in total this morning -from a search for all weapons in level range 34 to 47. There was a time when that would have been hundreds. I know, it's low level content, but still a bad sign. |

I've rolled and played on low(balnazzar), medium(gurubashi), and high/full(stormreaver) servers. Of course every server differs based on the age of the server, time/zone, popularity (yes some servers are more "popular" then others), pve vs pvp, and also where their general population comes from.
From my experience, the best server was the high population server(stomreaver). I played alliance and you could almost always find groups for anything. Yes, there were many accomplished players and guilds with the best of the best gear but this seemed to have a trickle down affect on the whole community. With competition, people actually played better and had better relations.
Gurubashi actually crashes more then stormreaver, although it does have a large brazilian population. The server is good for pvp, but the market isn't great and groups aren't as common at stormreaver
Balnazzar, the low population server just plains sucks. Terribad. Forums suck, pvp isn't great and pve progression is weak.
Anyways, my point is, i've rerolled to "new" servers before, and what tends to happen is people stay for awhile, get homesick of their decked out characters on their old server, and then leave. New servers always have a large population in the beginning but it eventually becomes stale and people leave. This trend has been happening since 2006. |
