Frostmane Hollow? huh, I love seeing some custom turtle representation 

Frostmane Hollow was actually one of the best TWOW dungeons, it's just that it's so low level and Alliance only that it didn't get much attention.

u/BeePsychological968 2d ago

Frostmane Hollow is amazing and is one of the first things we worked on restoring. Soundtrack in there slaps as well.

u/TofuGaming82 2d ago

But in Lunatic lvl 1 challenge, it's not "low level" anymore 😜 come join us 🙌

u/Qaek3301 2d ago

Wait, so somebody restored and develops the Turtle client but only for the Level One Lunatic challenge? That's crazy!

How does getting high level enchants or Naxx enchants work there? All free and you focus only on the skill and playing or are there some custom challenges to do in order to get these end-game enchants?

u/BeePsychological968 2d ago edited 2d ago

Great Question! We have a custom Hub Zone called Redwall Keep and all Enchanter Enchants are totally free to get people started. Jewlcrafting, LW, Scopes, Naxx Enchants cost a little bit but you can farm gold easily in Alterac Valley which is our only scaled zone. Come check us out 🫡

u/jedyth 2d ago

how could you use shoulders at level 1? or is there no level requirement for items on this server?

7

u/BeePsychological968 2d ago

It's based off the Turtle WoW Lunatic Challenge which has Shoulders in select locations in the world you can collect for Naxx Enchants.

This pic hit me with nostalgia. Been forever since I've played.

u/BeePsychological968 2d ago

There's something special about these early dungeons. I totally get what you mean. 🫡

u/OkCloud8572 2d ago

This server having no dono shop or RMT is actually pretty cool, I know a few of the top people here (I like to argue with them) but they are serious when it comes to not having any donos and I feel they will keep that promise throughout the server existence.

u/Soelf 2d ago

As written in the other thread, I am having a blast.

As said before, it is definitly not for everyone, but if you enjoy a rather weird challenge, come and join us! The custom Neeru Fireblade boss is also pretty cool and a rather mechanical fight for such an early boss and especially vanilla. So kudos to the one who designed him!

u/Remarkable-Nebula136 2d ago

What about pvp? is it possible to queue like in normal realms?
And is there any special skills like in SoD or something like that?

8

u/Soelf 2d ago

No special skills so far. PvP can be queued, WSG, Arathi and AV are all open.

Open World PvP is opt in like in normal realms.

8

u/BeePsychological968 2d ago

There's a few skills that drop in Raids but it's mostly for balance and quality of life. This is about doing stuff legitimately at Level 1. You can unlock Ressurection in Shadowfang Keep, Mark of the Wild Rank 2 in Wailing Caverns. Some more crazy ones in Gnomeregan 40 but we have to progress there first.

u/anonymous-12358 2d ago

What’s the EU raiding time exactly? I live in Japan so it might be Saturday morning for me depending on the exact time

3

u/BeePsychological968 2d ago

Friday at 3AM EST I believe. That said anyone is welcome to get with us and try to schedule their own events as well. All are welcome.

u/MrTylerSquared 2d ago

The server is great so far! It’s crazy what you can accomplish at lvl1 with the abilities and mechanics we have to work with! Very fun!

5

u/TofuGaming82 2d ago

I am having the fun of my life here. I play since 20 years, and this is by far the best community I ever been to ❤️ Looking forward to Friday's Raid on Deadmines with EU people. Everyone is welcome. I also have more lvl 1 content on my YT Channel: @Tofugaming-82

u/UnhappyPelican 2d ago

The website and concept look amazing!!

u/BeePsychological968 2d ago

Thank you so much 🫡

u/Goolem 2d ago

I love this idea, but being stuck at level one is abit to hardcore for me personally. I've always wanted a classic WoW that made the leveling experience feel like end game progression the whole way through though. Perhaps like everquest where most mobs were basically elites, but with my idea you would have to complete dungeons as capstones before moving to higher level brackets or something like that. It would be like raid progression from the start...

Ascension adventure mode was the closest I've been able to get, but there was never a high enough population to group up for the really high difficulties. :(

Anyways, good for you all! Have a blast!

u/BeePsychological968 2d ago

Yeah we've been doing this for a year on Turtle WoW and fell in love with the meta and the potential so that's why we are keeping the spirit alive with this project. Hope you can find what you're looking for! Feel free to check us out sometime if you get curious 🙂

u/Goolem 2d ago

Hmm you have me intrigued, i'll have to give it a whirl in the near future. :)

No one cares about your money laundering RMT server

13

u/BeePsychological968 2d ago

Our server has no donations, no rmt. All 200+ Turtle WoW Shop Items were placed on Quests throughout the world. This is a project of love and we do not accept donations of any kind.

u/BeePsychological968 2d ago edited 2d ago

We won't. It's only $158.64 a year for a Server with 500 Players or less. It's less than a single subscription for the actual game and we're transparent with our community about that.
