Netherwing - Stormforge

Top tier scripting - uses the Atlantiss TBC core and this is their 3rd server, its extremely close to classic quality. Very populated as well. The server is 3x XP btw, not 1x like it says here, but you can set it down to 1x if you want. It also released a few months ago, not in 2022.

Non-stop BG/arena 2s + decent 3s queues times as well.
The raid content is buffed though beyond blizz values, so if that's not your thing you will not be pleased, I found a guild and having a fun time progressing SSC though. The dungeons/heroics seem to be the same difficulty. The world feels alive although sometimes that means there will be heavy contesting of open world stuff like air elementals.

Awesome server, having a lot of fun!

To the guy who gave 1 star saying "there are other BC private servers" ... no there is literally none other, this is only one that is populated one.

Server overall is fine, it's private so will never be perfect, but BGs pop non-stop along with arenas, 3s is really active, it's the only place where good TBC PvP exists (WotLK classic PvP sucks)

They just banned my account for "3rd party mods", I was using an actionbar mod called Bartender. They would have to ban every single account for that. Actually they just wanted to free up my character names. Which shows how trustworthy and honorable the Stormforge staff is. Thank you for deleting hours of my life so your friend can have my character name.

Please

not a fan

Vanilla content is very poorly scripted and I know this is a tbc server, but there are still stuff in vanilla that you need for tbc, and even if you try to forget those you got to remember that you need to level to 58 in vanilla to enter the dark portal. TBC Content is clunky and very buggy. Mobs run through walls, spells don't work properly, attack and spell animations do not even exist in some cases. Mechanics are way off the real thing and the "buffed" content is just them adding dmg and HP to bosses. Community is ultra toxic, full of chinese and russians that do not want to speak english and think they understand the game when they are actually dog poo. Two weeks after release the server is dead and it is very hard to find people for normal and heroic dungeons. Raid pugs are rare and it takes 3-4 hours to fill half a group. PVP is almost dead, waiting for battleground more than 20 minutes and when it finally pops up you enter and it is 4 vs 7. In arenas you fight the same 2 people.

- Server is infested with bots
- Global chat is amongst the most toxic of private servers
- 0 moderation
- I reported harassment... and get a permaban
Don't waste your time on this server ; there are other BC private servers.

This server is a waste of time. they banned me for insulting gold sellers and spammers of World Chat in their private but they don't give a sh*i about gold sellers or boosters or account sellers and even renaming or faction change services that been provided by some random people and not via website.
scripting is 0.5 of 5 and server is full of retards or Chinese afk or non answering dummies.
