1.4 On the new PvE Realm

[Bartolo]

I hope they accelerate the patch progression a little to let the PvE realm catch up to the PvP realm so they can have cross-realm battlegrounds and raid competition in later content. With less than a year between them, it would be best to synchronize the servers over time. It should be possible to catch up somewhere around the time of ZG, or at least before AQ. They can shave 30% of time off each of the earlier tiers on the new server and I don't think it would cause any problems. It's not as though anyone cherishes the pre-1.4 itemization.

I hope they give me time to get at least my Ivory Raptor.

They should just forget the progressive patch BS - most of the players here already experienced it the first time.
Make the server same patch as the original & match any future patches. Much simpler to maintain & x-realm BG's can exist from day 1 (or as soon as PvE people catch up)

No way, I want to experience the progression of the patches/bosses/dungeons. Please not the same patch.
