Realm History
- December 2006
- There were frequent queues when the server first launched. The last new server launch took place in October so players were eager to start on new servers. In addition, the server was "Recommended" for a number of weeks after launch which aggravated the issue. This queues disappeared in time.
- February 2007
- Horde players found themselves in an empty realm. About 75% of the players were Alliance leaving Horde players with lag free gameplay at the cost of very few people to play with. However, the low server population also affected Alliance players too. Items were hard to find on the Auction House and instance groups were also hard to come by so players had a limited supply of items available to them.
- May 2007
- Mass Exodus from Bladefist-Alliance side. Phoenix disbands, many transfer. Judgement moves to Moonrunner, and guild leader quits game, leaving an opportunity for Unrest to take the lead in Karazhan progression. Salvation and Unrest are currently the two most dominant guilds on the server.
- June 2007
- Realm Transfers are in! With the incoming players Salvation proceeds to demolish King Maulgar in Gruul's Lair, later to also take down Gruul. Salvation also takes Netherspite in their sweeping wave of destruction, the fastest progression known to Bladefist since Invictus took BWL and shook its very foundations. Karazhan groups are becoming more plentiful as the time goes on, with many of them taking Maiden and beyond in the home of Medivh. Things are looking better for Bladefist as we await to see what time has in store.
- August 2007
- Top guild on Alliance and Horde (Salvation/Exodus, respectively) fall apart and reform under new names (Vindication/Resilence, respectively) causing progression to stumble again. Unrest seizes the lead in progression by knocking out the Loot Reaver.
- October 2007
- Vindication begins to push in to the real progression of SSC and downs Hydross and Tidewalker, Meanwhile Horde side more guild break ups and shake ups occur: Blood Ocean splits, and several other smaller guild working to get in to karazhan stumble and fall spliting and joining in to the larger guilds. Resilience slowly leading the horde side progression with Lurker and Loot Reaver downed, but with a few up and coming guilds with eyes squarely on the progression prize.
- November 2007
- TheStrikeTeam disbands and THE REPLACEMENTS is formed from the remaining members. Divinity also disbands entirely, with no word of reformation from members. On Horde Side, Facta Non Verba and Omen make their alliance known. Omen acting as the full raiding guild and Facta focusing on preparation for raiding players and the leveling of alts. Blood and Thunder dissolves. The small horde guild with a big heart, was unable to find balance with casual play and progression towards end-game.
