Blizzard has revealed how well the Season of Discovery has been received in World of Warcraft Classic . To put it this way: You have surpassed the birth rate of humanity.
To celebrate the success of the Season of Discovery, Blizzard released some statistics a few days ago, which clearly show how many players are enjoying the new Classic game mode.
One of the most impressive figures is the rate at which new characters were created in the Season of Discovery. In the first week, just over 4,535,000 characters were created. That corresponds to around 450 characters per minute. This compares WoW to the “spawn rate of level 1 humans” on Earth – that is, the human birth rate, which is estimated to be around 250 per minute.
By the way, after one week, only 10% of the characters had already reached level 25 – this number has likely increased significantly since then, as new challenges await in the end game, such as the raid in the Blackrock Depths.
Horde dominates in PvP, is nearly 6% better
In the PvP of the Season of Discovery, the old prejudice that the Horde is simply a bit better in PvP is once again confirmed.
- Of the approximately 3,900,000 PvP kills that occurred in the Ashenvale PvP,
- 2,064,000 kills are credited to the Horde
- the Alliance, on the other hand, had “only” about 1,828,000 kills
This should still be significantly more balanced than the “perceived win rate” between Horde and Alliance in Retail WoW.
By the way: After one week, only 0.09% of the characters had found and unlocked all runes (12) for their classes. This is probably because many do not want to use all runes, and others were kept secret for a few days. Meanwhile, this number should be steadily increasing.
Have you played the Season of Discovery? Where do you find yourselves in these statistics?
While most are at level 25, one player is already taking down bosses at level 60.
