Helios is an MoP Private Server delivered by Twinstar. It is an exciting project which offers a progressive server with active PvP seasons, and XP rates between 1-3x at level (1-84). Twinstar (author) mentions that they have put a lot of work into fixing the blizzlike content of this realm.
Their progression plan for the server is set like this:
Content: 5.0.4:
- April 19th: Mogu’shan Vaults
- April 26th: Mogu’shan Vaults: 1st part of RF, and heroic
- May 3rd: Mogu’shan Vaults: 2nd part of RF
- May 17th: Heart of Fear
- May 24th: Heart of Fear: 1st part of RF, and heroic
- May 31st: Heart of Fear: 2nd part of RF
- May 31st: Terrace of Endless Springs
- June 7th: Terrace of Endless Springs: RF, and heroic
After this, it will progress to the next progressive content of patch 5.X, and continue down this road.
The release of the server was poppin with something around 10,000 logins daily. That quickly died as the intro quest wasn't scripted and the content wasn't playable. Skip forward 2 weeks, MSV has been delayed for an "unsure" amount of time, 50% of the classes aren't scripted, and dailies aren't completable. Skip forward another 2 weeks, world bosses were released a week ago, MSV comes out next week but Stone Guardians aren't scripted and are hardly killable with everyone in the raid 470+ thanks to 2 weeks of world bosses released, and a HARD 25% dampening on all healing, absorbs, and damage. Twinstars thinks highly of themselves as they rant and rave about being "blizzlike" while producing a garbage product, have huge paywalls behind a server funded by the community (IE accounts being able to sell characters but having an 800 "star" minimum. Which is roughly 27$ USD in comparison to Stormforges ability to boost to 90 for 20$ with professions, flying, and boosted gear). Its not worth
