Server:Borean Tundra US

Borean Tundra (PvE)
Borean Tundra was started as a brand new server at 11:30am CST, on January 16th, 2009. According to common wisdom and Blizzard FAQ's, it will not be open to transfers for 90 days after the server was started. The highest level characters on the Horde side were not quite to level 30 by midnight server time, while Alliance characters were guessed to be at approximately level 30-35. There were also at least 10 guilds for the Horde created on day 1. Popular belief (on day 1) was that most characters started on the 1st day of the server will vanish by the end of the month of January, 2009. Common belief was also that there will be at least one level 80 within a week of server start, and at least 1-5% of the population will consist of death knights within the same time frame.

On or before January 22nd, 2009, players started to notice (and complain about) log-in queues.

On January 22nd, 2009 (approximately 4:25am server time), Akyros was announced to be the first Human, the first DK, and the first character to Level 80 on the realm. Congratulations Akyros.

While many might wonder at the achievement because the character is a Death Knight, at the time the server was locked to the creation of Death Knights unless that player had at least one other character at least level 55 on this server.

On January 23rd, 2009, Wistful became the first Tauren to reach Level 80 (and consequently, the 1st Horde character as well).

The next major achievement that most characters are gearing up and preparing for is the opening of the gates of Ahn'Qiraj along with the title of "Scarab Lord".
