Hello all,

A big thanks to everyone who has already taken the time to support and show interest in the server, we have been seeing more and more new players creating accounts and also joining the Discord. Compared to the existing established servers we are very overlooked as not many people know of our existence, but those who are playing here are enjoying themselves.

With today unfortunately being the last day for Turtle Wow you may be looking for a new server to play. If so, please consider checking us out at Crusader-Storm. There are already quite a few refugees from TWoW who have created their guilds and started to play here.

We are a non P2W TBC server that is still currently in the Phase 1 Stage. The server launched in January so it's still pretty fresh. The population has been growing steadily and the new players who are joining are also amazing. There have been a number of QoL changes for the server which can be found at the bottom of the Website.

To make things more enjoyable for grouped players, our server has made some changes to the grouped XP sharing mechanic so that playing as a group does not feel as punishing on the XP. This change helped to increase the Co-Op factor of the game and encouraged more dungeon runs. The grouped XP rates are listed below;

>Level 1 - 58 Group XP
0–5 level gap → 80% xp
6–10 level gap → 60% xp
11–15 level gap → 40% xp
16–20 level gap→ 10% xp
21+ level gap → 5%

>Level 58 - 70 Group XP
0–5 level gap → 50% xp
6–10 level gap → 33% xp
11+ level gap → 10% xp

The Experience rates for the sever for Level 1-58 are variable and can be changed between x1 - x3. From level 58 to 70 the rate is x1.

Trainer spells, Riding skill and Mounts are all reduced by 50%.

To play on the server, you can either use a 2.4.3 client or we have our 2.5.3 Classic client  - Both are available to download from our website.
If you already have a 2.4.3 client, you'll just need to update the Realmlist file which can be found on the website's How to play page.
We also have a working 2.5.3 Client for the M series of Macs, so Mac players are welcome to come and join us as well.
Linux OS can now also be used to play on the server with the 2.5.3 client. Please check the Client Help page on the Discord, there have been some very helpful people in the community to make things more accessible for the Linux player community.

Current Phase
As we are currently in Phase 1, the following are available;
Arena Season 1.
Karazhan, Gruul's Lair & Magtheridon's Lair instances.

Server Achievements
There is currently no Hardcore Permadeath mode for the server, however, we do have an implemented achievement system which includes Hardcore achievements.
A list of available achievements can be viewed on the website.

Multi Spec Talents
The Multi spec Vendors are located at the Mage portals in Stormwind / Orgrimmar for 5g and allow characters to save 3 spec trees.

When is Phase 2 coming?
Currently, we have Phase 2 planned to release on July 4th.

QoL and Small changes
Please check the bottom of the Website's home page for a list of the changes.

Currently, we have an event running for players to find a Riding Turtle mount. This mount was only obtainable in TBC via the "Trading Card Game" limited codes, so it's been put into the drop loot for a limited time. It can be obtained and used from any level. The mount gives players a 35% speed increase.
