It’s ALIVE!!! Welcome to Volkcrag.

Portrait of Frankenstein

Well server merges from Azazel to Volkmar along with Sylvania looks like it was a good thing. Its been a while since I’ve actually seen the whole RvR lake get filled up with active battle markers. The zones are flipping constantly, and people are pushing to the forts as often as I saw it happen on Dark Crag. Hence the the title, welcome to Volkcrag.

Initially after the server transfers, many of the Order guilds jumped aboard onto Volkmar seeking active RvR. While Destruction players were being careful as to which server they were going to choose so they didn’t immediately show up on the servers. Soo it looks like what happened this past weekend was that the order players soo hungry for pvp and renown, pushed all the way into the Inevitable City two days in.

Of course the immediate push to the Destruction capital was greeted with doomsayers saying that the server is imbalanced etc. The forums on WHA became flooded with the whines of Destruction players regarding population imbalance again much like the old forums of the Azazel server. Of course the people playing then had a good reason to complain when the portal to the capital city looks like this:

Order zerging the Inevitable City on Volkmar

Then on Tuesday something else happened to shut them all up.

Destro players showed up, organized, in force, and took a fort from Order in one clean push. They even outnumbered the Order players at one point that night. My how quickly one night can change the forums from the armageddon type of attitude to, “Our servers finally balanced” or “We’re having fun” etc.

Anyways that’s the update on the Volkmar server currently on Warhammer Online. I have a feeling that if the Order players don’t hurry up, and get organized, the Destruction on the server of Volkmar (even being outnumbered by Order), will become the dominant faction. As for me? I’m finally getting to play my Engineer again, and finally got myself to renown rank 49 last night. I hate waiting for BOs/undefended keeps, and so my renown ranks are mostly from scenario/skirmish only. I think I’m ranking up at an alright rate. What are everyone elses servers like on Warhammer? Are any of the readers here from either Volkmar/Azazel/Sylvania as well?

Hi,

I have been having nothing but trouble with servers. Even my provider is causing me untold grief. I have not been able to even get 1 solid hour for the last six weeks.

So as you can imagine its back to square one for me.

Take Care
