Is the class activity chart accurate?

Post by Tridus »

The class activity chart says that there's a boatload more Shaman then Druids, but the "quick stats" say the opposite.

Can anybody explain whats going on there?

The activity chart shows concurrent characters online during a snapshot. The Quick Stats show all characters that have been seen in total.

So what you could be seeing is a case where Shaman are actively played more than druids, but that many people have druid alts that they dink around on from time to time.

What server are you referring to?
phpbb:phpinfo()

Oh, and another thing. The Class Activity charts are broken down by faction, whereas the Quick Stats are not. So you are looking at total number of druids, both Horde and Alliance. Obviously, when you add in Alliance druids, there will be more total druids than just the number of Horde Shaman.

So to finalize, ON THE HORDE SIDE, Shaman way outnumber druids, but overall, there are more Alliance and Horde druids than their are Shaman.

Make sense?

I wrote up a big long reply about this...

then I saw the little option at the top to change between Alliance and Horde.

Yeah, I'm a noob. Thanks for the help. :)
