Greetings and welcome to the Ash Realms!

I'm adding quite alot more items/quests into the game to follow along with my "Army of Darkness" theme. I hope you enjoy your time here! Feel free to submit suggestions on this forum or send them to me in-game as "Ash". :D

Some helpful info about our servers:

* Dark Ash is PvP but we've added restrictions to prevent "ganking" of low level players. PVP is restricted to players within 9 levels of you unless you are in an arena area (i.e. Gurubashi Arena) or you are dueling.

* Both servers have Dual Spec fully working!

* Most of our Dungeons are COMPLETELY scripted to retail standards. Northrend dungeons use a combination of normal and heroic; combining drops from both and about 2/3rd of the Heroic difficulty. Dark Ash has reduced difficulty on all Dungeons and Raids to allow for easier non-pvp gear acquiring.

* Player ran raids happen many times a day and take strategy to complete.

* We have more working spells/talents, quests, scripts, and dungeons than any other server. Guaranteed!

* You can talk, party, trade , follow and GUILD with ANYONE; faction doesn't matter! Dark Ash players can also KILL anyone regardless of faction.

* You can get mounts at levels 1, swift at 15, FLYING mounts that work in all mountable zones (even Azeroth) at 30, 310% Flying at 40, and our exclusive BATTLE MOUNTS that allow you to fight while flying starting at 50!

* Bad Ash realm experience and reputation rates are 10x normal, quest xp is 12x and the drop rates are 15x normal.

* Dark Ash realm quest and xp rates are 15x normal, reputation and drop rates are 10x normal.

* You will acquire a total of 100 talent points (Bad Ash) and 102 talent points (Dark Ash) by level 80.

* You can have 5 professions instead of 2.

* Even 'grey' items/gathering for professions have a decent chance to raise skill.

* Guilds can be created with only 5 petition signings.

* Look for custom leveling quests and vendors near the banks in Undercity and Stormwind.

* Find the Prizes quest giver in Darnassus or Orgrimmar near the bank for custom end-game gear quests and items. Donor rewards are given by Rewards npc and Vote rewards are given by the Auditor quest giver in the same area.

* Every donor reward has a method to be obtained through the custom quest npcs. The actual reward for donating is maintaining the server while saving you time on the epic-length quests.

* Arena Teams, Alterac Valley, Eye of the Storm, Arathi Basin and Warsong Gulch battlegrounds are working! Minimum 1 player per side on battlegrounds.

* Arena Teams require a minimum of 5 games played per week and points are given weekly.

* Honor is gained at 3x normal rate on Bad Ash and 10x normal on Dark Ash. We have a working PvP Title system which starts at 5 kills (Bad Ash) and 10 kills (Dark Ash) of opposing faction.

* You get rested xp while you're offline no matter where you logout.

* Mail delivery happens 10 seconds after it is sent.

* Instances do not have level requirements to enter (but some have item requirements).

* MANY escort quests DO NOT work yet, but we're fixing them!

Please be aware these realms are FAMILY FRIENDLY. Do not use vulgar language in any open chat channels! You will be muted, kicked, or eventually banned for good.

If you don't have the Burning Crusades or Wrath of the Lich King expansion you can get them from the links HERE!

If you hate fussing with the realmlist.wtf file to switch between our server and retail you can download our custom launcher which deletes your cache files, shows our server status and important server news BEFORE you even login. It also allows you to connect back to RETAIL if you so choose (When we're on the same version as retail)! You can download it HERE!

VERY HANDY
