Thank you for the update. Had I known there was going to be a new PvP server available to play on - I would have just waited and started leveling there.

Will transfers be allowed to the new PvP server?

Will you remove the warmode glyph from the PVE realm with the launch of the PVP realm?

Will the new realm be hosted in the same location as the current EU realm?

Will there be additional pvp balances made? I foresee a large Alliance population due to the heavy buffs paladins have received. The current EU realm already sees a larger alliance population. https://turtle-wow.org/#/population-graph with Horde players being almost doubled by alliance.

I think you should allow cross-faction talking, at the very least. It's fun.

Any chance to move it sooner, say, 20 days? 7/Oct? Come on, you know you want it. You know you dooo. Yeeeah. Let's do it. I agree, yes, tomorrow sounds good too. It marks that day as well I know!

I'm wondering if the bgs will be linked? Would be essential to keep bgs alive on the PVe realm

Also is it going to release raids in phases like classic, or naxx open on day 1?

I play a few other classes on my friends' accounts.

No, it'd be unfair toward ungeared PvP realm players to face PvE realm players on the Battleground.

On the new pvp server will we be able to play two accounts at the same time for leveling purposes gaining experience? if not will it be limited to non leveling activities like portaling alts around, making them water, buffing, etc....

Here in PVE realm, World buffs were not used in raids. It was compensated by having both Shamans and Palas.
Do you take it in account in terms of raid balance? Have you ever considered giving Palas and Shamans to the Horde and Alliance?
Thanks

Maybe make so you can choose to queue globally (all servers) or just with people from your own server?

Thanks
now this was one of the main arguments AGAINST fresh pvp. having to balance for two settings with and without crossfaction raiding.
i would just ignore pvp balance.... enjoz hardmode raiding

I'm more into playing as Pala but...I hate Alliance. I don't think we will get it but worth asking anyway.

Please reconsider realm transfers, at least after a period of time for new players to gear up
