About Drak'thul

Hosted in Blizzard's US datacenter, Drak'thul is a NORMAL realm. Players use it for raiding, M+ keys, and PvP for North/South American players, which means queues here tend to track real player demand rather than infrastructure problems. What makes Drak'thul distinct is that it sits on Blizzard's US datacenter rotation, where evening peaks are the most common cause of queues. Because it sits in a connected-realm group, an outage here affects every connected realm in the group at once.

Why this may differ from the launcher or forums

Blizzard's launcher and forums can lag a realm's actual state by several minutes. This page reflects the official realm status API directly.

Frequently asked questions

Is Drak'thul down right now?▾

We don't have a recent probe result for Drak'thul yet. Check back in a few minutes.

Why is there a login queue?▾

Login queues happen when more players want to log in than the realm can handle at once. They're most common right after a maintenance window, a content patch, or during peak evening hours. The queue moves on its own — there's no way to skip it.

What does 'connected realm' mean?▾

Blizzard merges low-population realms into shared connected-realm groups. Players on any realm in the group share an auction house, can join the same guilds, send mail, and form parties — but each realm keeps its own name.

Where does this status come from?▾

We poll Blizzard's official Battle.net /data/wow/connected-realm/86 endpoint every few minutes and surface the result. We don't make up our own status.
