Kronos!
Double on this. Greatest quality for regular vanilla out there.
Except it's damn near finished it's phases. There's little to no point starting fresh on a server that progressed.
If / when they start a fresh iteration tho? Yeah, I'll be 1000% down.
Yes, half year of Naxx (opened 1Oct according to their discord) is just dooming.
All servers that are pure vanilla with the exception of one (Sanctuary) is more or less fully progressed. I would join just to find some friends before next fresh hit.
which was DOA
Kronos
Currently? Probably warmane's onyxia.
They'll tell you turtle, but turtle is not vanilla, it's modified. You may enjoy it more than vanilla, though, and should give it a shot
Btw op neither of them is actual Vanilla (Warmane’s Onyxia is run off the Wotlk client).
But it's vanilla. Vanilla items, spells, talents, professions, etc. It's vanilla
It doesn't mean it's WotLK. Everything on Onyxia is tuned to vanilla, including the gear, talents and spells. You're literally playing vanilla.
literally except the parts that are not vanilla lmao
QoL changes don't mean it's not vanilla - it just means it's vanilla with QoL. It's not even vanilla+...
Yeah, sure. As if DF, 25-man raids or arenas were vanilla.
Those are QoL which were previously voted. The 25-mans are scaled down.
Onyxia's warmane is dying due to players leaving cuz of AQ's prepration and the AQ raid itself.
Has been dying since the beginning. Still, it's got more English-speaking players than the other servers.
OK, thanks
It’s on the wotlk client. Look for a server running 1.12.1
Don’t let the 1.12 purists talk you into thinking that you have to play traditional vanilla.
Vanilla on a 3.3.5 server with minor QoL is honestly the best overall experience. There are significant problems with the 1.12 client that can be fixed with mods but at that point, you might as well be playing on a better client.
Warmane has its issues but you will always have a healthy amount of players online and RDF is a nice thing to have even if you don’t want to use it. It’s entirely optional.
lol, pursuits. Just stating facts bro.
Solocraft now and always
Take a look at Nyctermoon, I've been able to do many things usually I've never even seen before with the help of Companions (from farming my pre raid BiS on BRD arena to Allistarj questline in Badlands for example)
Nyctermoon is awesome. I second this. The AI companion system is truly next level.
Turtle with people, Nyctermoon solo
I think solocraft is better so you can do actual raids by yourself
Did not try that one yet, so i couldn't recommend. Thx for the tip
Out of curiosity, what are the main differences between Solocraft and Nyctermoon?
Nyctermoon you have to pay and can spawn only a team of 5 I believe for dungeons but need to find other players to make a raid. In solocraft you can spawn a whole raid of bots to complete any content solo.

This made me chuckle. Everlook is your best option, but nobody speaks English and it’s got a cash shop now.
Boy does that make me sad for private servers.
(Just play Turtle WoW)
Warmane Onyxia if you want Standard Vanilla on a better client with some minor QoL changes.
Turtle WoW if you want vanilla with new content. Keep in mind, you’re stuck playing in the old client which may or may not matter to you, I’m personally not a fan of 1.12.
Wallcraft run by a community member/dev here named Wall is a solo passion-project Vanilla+ and it’s in beta. His version of the 1.12 client is actually quite smooth and there’s more of an emphasis on class/itemization reworks than Turtle’s V+. Keep in mind that it’s a beta and the community is small, but everyone is friendly and you don’t have to deal with toxic players like you do on big servers.
Servers I would avoid:
Sanctuary and Everlook, without going into much detail, just do yourself a favor and play anything else.
