1. Burning Crusade realm Outland: Release date and information



    Greetings Warmane community,

    After months of meticulous research, work, a joke or two and thousands of hours of passion poured into making our dream come true, we are finally able to announce the release date of Outland, the Warmane Burning Crusade realm.

    Outland is scheduled to be released on May 20, 2017 at 13:00 server time.




    As announced previously, the realm's design will be the following:

    • x5 experience rate.
    • Trainer costs will be lowered to 20% of original cost.
    • All other rates will be x1.
    • The realm will be progression based, emulating the 2.1 patch on the beginning, with all respective attunements.
    • The following raid content will be available at the beginning: Karazhan, Gruul's Lair, Magtheridon's Lair, Serpentshrine Cavern, Tempest Keep.
    • Isle of Quel'Danas will be closed until the realm reaches that point in progression. The isle itself will be progressive as it was designed, once released.
    • PvP gear will be Season 1, Gladiator gear.
    • The marketplace will not be implemented for at least a month and on release it will only contain items that were already obtained by the players. The marketplace itself will be progressive.
    • Quality of life additions, such as dual spec, faction change, re-customization and similar changes, we are positive about their implementations but will take longer time to consider pros and cons.




    Since the start of the PTR we have continuously demonstrated our skills and ability to handle any issues we find with ease. Within two weeks of publishing a changelog containing over 1,400 fixes we were able to produce another changelog including again over 1,000 fixes. This clearly shows our unchallenged strength and capabilities and we will continue to work at that pace as long as it is required and deal with absolutely any issues that come our way.



    We encourage all players to log on our PTR and see the quality for themselves and we appreciate any reports and feedback that come out of it. We will continue to work hard on the realm after the release as well and we are hoping to see more feedback. The dedication to provide the experience we seek and the community seeks will remain strong throughout the release and well after. In the meanwhile, we encourage players to make the best of their remaining time on the PTR and help us forge the ultimate experience on Warmane.

    See you in Outland on Outland,
    Warmane

  2. Q: Will relevant bug-fixes on Outland be applied to Lordaeron and Icecrown?
    A: Yes, of course.

    Q: Patch 2.1 content? Will that include +1 token drops and T6 content?
    A: No. That will come when the realm progresses.

    Q: Dual-spec?! Awesome!
    A: We are considering it and we are positive about it but it most probably will not come on server release right away. If done, it will not be done in the game but on the website. We are not a fan of custom commands or custom NPCs.

    Q: Heroic dungeons will require honored reputation? (Like in patch 2.3.0?)
    A: They will require revered reputation standing on launch of the realm. It will be lowered to honored when the realm progresses to that point.

    Q: Since T4 and T5 are being available on release, wouldn't that mean imbalance for pvp?
    A: No. This is how it was done on retail, and in order to get access to T5 gear, you have to fully clear and gear through T4 content.

    Q: Does that mean you changed your mind? Before, you stated that the marketplace will only include items that are already common among alot of players. Now it kinda seems when one person on the server will get glaives, it will be implemented in marketplace (just example).
    A: One person acquiring an item does not mean it's going to be on the marketplace. Marketplace item releases will only happen when those items have been obtained and farmed by a lot of players already.

    Q: What will be the population cap for the server?
    A: We're not sure yet. It will require live stress testing. We may start with a moderate cap and raise it as our hardware and systems allow.

    Q: Will you be selling gold?
    A: No, we will not be. Whether we allow gold to be traded for coins between players on our marketplace remains to be seen.

    Q: Will there be an instant-level-70 feature?
    A: We have not decided upon this point just yet.

  3. When will the instant 70 option become available, if at all?


  4. Can you provide us with a possible release of the x1 server?

  5. Just a quick question, will the bug fixes be applied for relevant content on the other realms as well (Lord and IC) ?
    There are many fixes in the changelogs that have existed on the wrath realms for a while but are reportedly fixed for the upcoming TBC realm. Are the fixes gonna be ported over to those realms as well?

  6. http://forum.warmane.com/showthread.php?t=352046 any info on pvp seasons except that it will be s1 gear? length/start of the season, rewards, rules?

  8. [*]The realm will be progression based, emulating the 2.1 patch on the beginning, with all respective attunements.e
    2.1 patch? This patch opened T6 content, +1 token from raid bosses, epic fly form druid and any more changes. Maybe typo?

  9. Anyone know when "13:00 server time" is in EST?

    HYPE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


  10. Thanks for the quick answer! Keep up the good work. Really enjoy your Lordaeron server!

  11. 2.1 patch? This patch opened T6 content, +1 token from raid bosses, epic fly form druid and any more changes. Maybe typo?
    Everything apart from the tokens and the Tier 6 content. We believe that having the repuations, fly form but with Tier 4 + 5 content opened.

  12. Dual-spec in plan?! Awesome!
    We are considering it and we are positive about it but it most probably will not come on server release right away. If done, it will not be done in the game but on the website. We are not a fan of custom commands or custom NPCs.
