Ever since the launch of Ulduar in the World of Warcraft WLK nostalgic server, it can really be described as a mixture of joy and sorrow. Up to now, there are not many teams that have completed Ulduar, and many teams have even been defeated at the first BOSS. Many teams have reached the last BOSS but were unable to defeat it no matter what. However, with the arrival of the Ulduar raid, the number of active players in World of Warcraft has actually increased again.



At present, the WCL data has not yet shown a specific number of completions and the number of players who failed in their attempts, so I am temporarily unable to judge the actual difficulty of this time. At least I myself tried but failed. I could only barely take down the first BOSS and then we failed. According to the current data, the fastest completion record is a little over 2 hours, but this time will be compressed to less in the later stages.



Although the difficulty of this raid is actually a bit high, it has actually directly stimulated the exploration desire of many players, and even directly pushed the number of players in World of Warcraft WLK Classic to a new high. According to the statistics of the Bigfoot plug-in, the number of characters in the national server is currently close to 13 million, and may even exceed 13 million in the near future. However, the gap in the number of characters between the Horde and the Alliance is too large, and there is no way to balance it in the short term.



Judging from the distribution of servers, the number of people queuing for Jaina is only 680,000, while the number of people queuing for Ruby Sanctuary has reached 730,000. Since the decline of Jaina's reputation, everyone will find that the number of people queuing for Jaina has actually dropped a lot, while the number of people queuing for Ruby Sanctuary has increased a lot. Even now, during peak hours, the queuing time to enter the Ruby Sanctuary server takes about half an hour or even longer, which shows the players' love for Ruby Sanctuary.

However, the data that surprised the farmers and workers the most was actually the number of characters online in 24 hours announced by the Big Foot plug-in. From the current point of view, the number of characters online in 24 hours is about 130,000, which is close to 10% of the total number of people. But everyone should not forget one thing. The number counted some time ago showed that the number of people online in 48 hours was only about 500,000. The number counted this time is still on weekdays, but the number of online people has obviously increased a lot.



These increased online players are most likely heading for the Ulduar raid. In fact, the peak period of the number of online characters in World of Warcraft is around the time when the raid is opened, because once the raid is opened, many players want to go and have fun in it. Maybe they can easily beat the raid. If they can't beat it, they can just be a freeloader and maybe get some benefits. If they really can't beat it, they can just have fun and then log off, and then wait for the next new raid to be opened before coming back online.

However, the difficulty of the World of Warcraft pioneering group itself is not low, so many players actually focus on participating. Of course, if you are a rare profession, you may still get a lot of subsidies in the pioneering stage, especially the three characters like Warlock, Druid and Shadow Priest. You are more likely to get subsidies, but there is a prerequisite for Warlock, that is, your hand speed must be at least faster than my grandmother. If your hand speed and positioning are not good, you will probably not only not get subsidies, but you will also be scolded by the team leader.



So from the current point of view, the Chinese version of World of Warcraft WLK nostalgic server is not as bad as players said before, and it is not as players say that they don’t play it, otherwise there would not be 13 million characters and more than 1.3 million characters online 24 hours a day. Of course, some players may say, maybe I created N characters by myself? This situation does exist, but it is not common. However, at this time, the farm workers would like to ask everyone a more heart-wrenching question: Have you cleared Ulduar?
