Yeah the nice thing is many will be in the same boat as you guild wise and with a guild cap of 100 members you should be able to find a group that will run around the times you will be :)

I plan on playing on whatever server is first on the list at release. If it's Azena I'll be going to the second one more than likely. Trying to avoid the streamer servers myself. Goal is to just get in before the queue and make my character and start playing lol.


Is there a reason to avoid streamer servers? Are people just worried that there will be queues because it will be too populated? Perhaps I'm just underestimating the popularity of the game. I think it will be popular but not that popular where we can't get into games after the initial rush.

Most of the big streamers that are going to be playing have terrible communities that are following them. I've played other games on these servers and it's just a cesspool of people simping over their favorite streamers. More power to them, but I'd prefer to avoid it.

Ah didn't know it's the toxicity. I stumbled upon a guild list directory that someone made and it looks like Regulus could be the other option. Looks the population is on par or even larger than Azena, if most guilds equate to larger population

Thanks for that I forgot about that sheet. Yeah Regulus has gained traction it looks like. Looks like I'll be joining discords and finding a guild tomorrow lol.

OMG, that guy is just an idiot, you will kick yourself once you get into PvP or end game PvE if you think as long as it's <150 you will be fine.

As long as you have under 150 you can dodge attacks. Once you get unstable 160+ then you will just be soaking damage due to lag and people won't like that.

I would just test your ping before committing to a server if l was all of you.

Even the OCE people that are playing NA with have over 200+ ping and it will be impossible for them to dodge attacks so you will be healing non stop or people will be dropping.

You have to gauge both sides. I hear there are even some Chinese communities coming over to NA to play.

That alone tells you that even 30-40% of your player base either has huge ping and can't dodge shit and your overall experience will be trash.
