releasing way to quickly

suggest

BWL - 9/1/26
AQ - 12/1/26
NAXX - 3/1/27
KARA40 - 6/1/27

remember us Ambershire folk waited 4-5 months for BWL, server still needs time

+1 for a slower release cadence. Would love to enjoy the journey and farm a little bis from each raid tier before moving on.

Agreed - this should be slowed down. I think the middle ground would be 3-4 months. Preferably 4 months per phase. Give people time to get in and progress. We haven't even done an official launch yet. If you blow through the phases, its only going to be more strain on your infrastructure dealing with bugs, etc.. and speed runners are going to clear all content in less than a year. The server is JUST NOW getting population; you just opened sign-ups. Give it time. Nurture the community; this does not have to be a race.

If this is a revenue issue - I think this is backwards, you'll see MORE revenue with slower phases, people will make alts, etc, at this rate, no one will make an alt. We'll be clearing content to go RIGHT back into the next phase.

I haven't even decided on what class I want to main. I'm playing three lowbies right now, trying to get a feel of what I like best in the Octo-turtle world. I probably won't have a 60 until AQ comes out, on this schedule!

+1 for roadmap phases should be AT LEAST a month longer.

Honestly MC shouldn't have even been open until release +1 month. I know my guild lost a fairly sizeable pop of early 60s to Levia, just because they moved first into raids. It made one particular guild significantly stronger, I'm sure we weren't the only ones - And we're even raiding MC already ourselves. And we felt that pressure even only being a week or so late to join the server. I'm sure others will feel such even harder.

The faster the phases are, the more hardcore guilds benefit because of this. More brutal loot systems, etc, get an advantage just because they can progress faster - and if you don't like it, no one else is doing the content.

Agreed, updated <3

Most of the thought/work for the roadmap was admittedly put into the restoration section of it, the rest was a bit tacked on when we realized we would get tons of questions about it still.

Nobody cares about new content. 90% of people joined in the past few days. These people care about a smooth experience. Make everything work first before you add content.
