Everloot card: WoW: Forever beta by the numbers, with 8.8 million characters created and nearly 10 million PvP kills

TL;DR: Blizzard shared its WoW: Forever beta numbers: 8,862,354 characters created, 9,959,014 PvP kills and 1,248,125 duels. The Hall of Thanes was the deadliest dungeon, the Kobold Miner the deadliest creature, and Hillsbrad Foothills saw the most PvP.

What Blizzard posted

Blizzard closed the beta with a "Beta by the Numbers" card on its official X account:

| Stat | Beta total | |---|---| | Characters created | 8,862,354 | | PvP kills | 9,959,014 | | Skyborne characters | 1,889,084 | | Duels fought | 1,248,125 | | Deaths from falling | 1,157,204 | | Forsaken Paladins | 612,096 | | Deadliest dungeon | The Hall of Thanes | | Deadliest creature | Kobold Miner | | Zone with the most PvP | Hillsbrad Foothills |

What it means for players

  • Skyborne are popular. About 21% of all beta characters were Skyborne. Expect plenty of them at launch.
  • Forsaken Paladins are real. Roughly 7% of characters tried the new combo. See our racial changes recap.
  • Bring a group to the Hall of Thanes. It killed more beta players than any other dungeon.
  • Hillsbrad will be busy. If you level on a PvP ruleset, plan for fights there.
  • Character count is not player count. Blizzard didn't share unique accounts, and many testers made several characters.

News recap. Everloot has no addon data from the beta.

Help the DB grow: install the Everloot addon before launch on November 4 so your drops count from day one.
