Azshara
Ah yes, Azshara. I am more than positive each and every one of the players on Burning-WoW has ventured a gander at the realm. Perhaps you have even made more than one character there. What you may not know about this realm is that its sole purpose lies deeper than you may realize.
Azshara is obviously, a test realm. What this means is that when the Developers of Burning-WoW are working on an update for the more highly populated realms, this gives the developers a “trial” run. If there are any problems with an update (exploits, bugs, NPC quest problems, stability, etc.) these do not apply to the other realms. Now obviously, the staff cannot account for every problem that may occur with an update. They often rely on the players of Azshara to catch these bugs. Without Azshara, the majority of the problems would be directly applied to the other realms. As you can imagine, this would not bode well for the players.
One thing the developers cannot factor into this equation of trail and error, is simply the stress of a higher populated server. As you may know, the population of Azshara simply cannot compare to the population of say, Netherstorm. I can almost assure you that if the population of Azshara were to compare to one of the more popular realms, there would be a great deal of highly effective fixes. This would essentially give the developers the tools necessary to properly account for problems that would need attention.
Azshara is a quite unique realm in itself. Not only does it have an increased drop rate and experience, it also boasts a level cap of 80. You will also find that different factions are given specific skills and spells.
Have you ever wanted to try a certain build for your character, but didn’t want to invest the time of trial and error? You could try making that character on Azshara to see if that’s the build that suits your needs. I know that I myself have invested time and my hard earned gold into a character i did not much care for. I learned to try the build on Azshara before hand to prevent this. By following this advice, you wont only be helping yourself, but helping the developers to collect data.
So go ahead, spend some time on Azshara. You may even make a few friends there.
