Guild Wars 2

Okay you forum lurkers/lovelies,

If I transfer from EU to NA, will I
A) Be eligible for PvP tourneys in NA?
B ) Have ping issues if I have to connect across the pond?

A) Yes
B) Issues probably not, higher ping yes.

Any Idea of numbers? If I connect to EU servers from UK I get ~50 ping. If I connect to US from UK is it join got be over 500?

Not that high at all.
I connect from Brazil and I get about 200ms, some friends of mine from Australia gets about 200~250ms (300 in bad days), you’ll probably be around 120~150 ms.

Open a command prompt (press WindowsKey+R and open cmd) and enter the command:

ping 64.25.38.230

Ping issues will depend upon your internet provider, your computer ethernet card, etc, etc, I was on NA and played on EU for a while before xfering that account to NA. Ping was not really high at all. 126 average. I did notice a half second to a second skill lag when there a lot of players around but not bad at all.

I connect from the EU to a NA server : ping avg is ~140-150ms.
Connection is pretty stable tbh.
