What Wotlk realm should I start playing on?

[Kevynxd]

Hello,
back after long pause. Which realm should I roll onto, what "phase" is on every wotlk/mop realm etc.?

Thanks :)

[OhieMitzen]

WotLK
Lordaeron 3.3.5
Icecrown 3.3.5
Frostmourne (seasonal) Ulduar
Blackrock 3.3.5

Generally I'd say Icecrown. It's higher rates realm with most players. However if you prefer lower paced leveling wtih end-game content being harder, I'd recommend Lordaeron.

MoP is barely hanging on with rather low pop.

Frostmourne is in patch 3.2.0 and its Call of the Crusader; not Ulduar.
And you can change your EXP rates on Icecrown and Frostmourne to x0.5, x1, x3, x5, or x7.

What are the "rates" that he mentions ?

Experience rates. Multiplication of the standard Blizzard XP gain. If the rate is x1 (*1) it's the default amount of XP you'd gain on Blizzard's WotLK servers. If it's x7 rate you get 7 times more XP from quests and killing than you would on x1.
Also, money and reputation rates are different on Icecrown and maybe Frostmourne (think it's x3, correct me if I'm wrong).

Missed the newest update of Frostmourne it seems.. Oops

What are the "rates" that he mentions ?

Exp rate is by default x7 in Icecrown. Which can be changed by right clicking XP bar, changeable to 0.5, 1, 3, 5 and 7 multipliers.

Player adjustable experience rate

Crafting rate is x3.
Reputation rate x3.
Money rate is x3.

Drop rates should be x1.

I'd double check anything Thorbjorn or OhieMitzen would say.
These two are known for giving false information.
They might understand how the rules of the forums work, but as far in-game knowledge. They'll give you the wrong info. Beware!

you can tell we're lying by the fact that all YOUR posts got deleted because of your babyraging and inability to behave like a human being

the infractions against my account were lifted a long, long time ago, lol.
and i don't know which event you are talking about,

- the one my account got hacked and nobody did anything (not even greens, to help me run dungeons again?)
at least retail they give you some low gear to get you started again..

- not being able to have other players buy/gift me coins?
ehh, before i realized icecrown isn't that great of a server.

- not understanding or being able to read properly?
i think you can take a lesson from this too.

The part where it explicitly says account security is your responsibility and you demanded compensation for your inability to read nonetheless?

- not being able to have other players buy/gift me coins?

The part where it says that's not allowed and against the rules?

- not understand or being able to read properly?

Open hostility with nothing of benefit to add to the OP's thread besides babyraging.

Be a dear and point out false information we're spreading.
