Server History

Burning Blade was one of the original World of Warcraft European English servers when WoW went live on February 11th 2005. The server was highly populated and often experience queues and lag/disconnects. Raiding progress began to suffer which began to annoy the large population.


Major Alliance Guilds included:

  • Balance
  • Ex Vi Termini
  • HoD
  • Norwegian Legion (Gief Epix)
  • Royal Blood
  • Remorseles


Major Horde Guilds included:

  • Brutality
  • One Vision
  • Refusion
  • The Valor Legion
  • Delirium
  • Ephorate

Migration to Grim Batol

On May 15th 2006, Blizzard began Free Migration to Grim Batol. The current population of Burning Blade began arranging plans for migration. All Major Alliance and Horde Guilds began the exodus with smaller guilds and individuals following suit as nobody wanted to play on a dead realm.

After Migration

Blizzard eventually retrofitted the realm, but by now it was to late. However since then Blizzard has used Burning Blade as a migration destination realm and has since seen a healthy influx in players. With the addition of Cross-Realm Battlegrounds, PvP queues remain quick across all realms.

Before WoW: The Burning Crusade

One of the best guilds the server had was called Taint. Taint members came from Sylvanaar, and formed a very strong Blackwing Lair (BWL) raiding guild.

Before the expansion (TBC), there were very few end game guilds, that were actually progressing. BWL was out of reach for most of the guilds, except Twilight (Alliance). Twilight (lead by Moonlet) cleared BWL and started wiping in Naxxramas. The guild's name didn't change after the release of TBC, although many core people have either joined Mindblast/Lux Ferre or left server because lack of serenity.

There were many guilds, but most of them were wiping in Molten Core (MC), trying to progress. One of the most important guilds from the server was Sha'Tar (Alliance), lead by Degradator. They started from the bottom, from a level 10 guild to become one of the enthusiastic, disciplined and dedicated guilds this server had to offer. The core of the guild was formed by few real life Romanian players, who leveled very fast, and started clearing ZG. Once both MT(Degradator) and the OT(Salemkd) got geared, the guild cleared Zul'Gurub (ZG) in a matter of days. The guild farmed ZG for a few months, then started real encounters. When the officers voted to start MC, a problem occurred. They were facing many slackers, so they decided to 'remake' the guild, with another name, but with all core people (50% of the guild). They renamed it from Requiem, to Sha'Tar. They cleared MC in two weeks (although half of players have never been in the instance). It was all about team-work, dedication, and discipline. Ruins of Ahn'Qiraj was the second instance cleared by the guild, as well as most of the world bosses. When Sha'Tar cleared the first two bosses from BWL and were preparing for a victorius march through the instance, The Burning Crusade was released, forcing the members to stop focusing on BWL and start leveling instead. The guild is now-a-days called Lux Ferre, and is the best Alliance guild side on the server.

Many Serbian players migrated to Burning Blade just before the release of the TBC and created a new raiding guild called United. Most of the players had Naxxramas experience, so the expectations were high. They reached Gruul's Lair and couldn't go further then High King Maulgar which lead to disbanding, some of the raiders joined Revenant others migrated away or stopped playing.

Glorious was a very old guild from the server, that cleared BWL once. After the clearing of BWL, they faced new problems that struck the guild, forcing them to start wiping in MC all over again, trying to gear their members. Most of the dedicated guild raiders joined after TBC from the guild Mindblast.

Valhallas was also a very good alliance guild, who killed few bosses in BWL. Later, they changed their name to Sains. After TBC Sains and United merged. Few weeks later United disbanded, and most of the members joined Revenant.

Insomnia was another important MC raiding guild, that had very little progress. They migrated after TBC to Ragnaros server (due to lack of tanks/healers), where they disbanded a few weeks later.

Current Times

After "The Burning Crusade" was released, the server suffered because of lack of dedicated hardcore people, which is the reason why progress was made later. Mindblast (Alliance) was the first guild who cleared Karazhan, and to reach Lady Vashj, but in the end they disbanded, and the members either migrated on different servers, or quit the game. Other Alliance guilds were at that time only clearing Gruul/Magtheridon, and staring on SSC/TK.

The horde guilds were doing worse than the Alliance guilds. At the time Mindblast disbanded, best Horde guild Delirium had only killed Magtheridon, and the 2nd best horde guild was wiping on Gruul. However, even though the odds were against them, Delirium has made amazing progress and killed 5 bosses from SSC and 2 from TK in a matter of weeks, becoming number one guild on the server.

On the Alliance side, Revenant and Lux Ferre were progressing fast, killing bosses in SSC/TK within a week of each other, with Revenant taking lead. When Revenant disbanded after two weeks of wiping on Lady Vashj, Lux Ferre took the spot of the server's best Alliance guild.

On the Horde side, Delirium migrated and The Brotherhood took over the PvE progress, them and Lux Ferre almost daily interchanging on the position of the server guild number one.

Today, Lux Ferre is leading suit, having cleared Mount Hyjal and The Black Temple. The Brotherhood is keeping close second, attempting on Illidan, while a few other guilds like the Horde's Dark Side, and Alliance's AMBER and Twilight, are making good progress in MH, as well as on BT's first bosses.

Good luck, guys, keep Burning Blade alive like in the old days.
