Guild Wars 2

So i am planning to move my account to EU from NA due to ping issues. I am currently in GoM which i believe to be a balanced high populated server .
To be more specific i wanted to know a server on EU which is
*Very high Population
*Good Amount of people playing Pvp
*Balance in Pve and WvW

im not looking for an all PvE server or an All WvW server I’m just looking for the ideal balance one which is high populated

could someone list the names of EU servers and there “spec” or what is known for.

It would also be nice if someone could tell me the alternative to Gate Of Madness in EU , if there is one . thanks

sPvP is cross server and megaserver means your choice of server doesn’t really matter for PvE. That leaves WvW as the only thing you really need to be concerned about. The WvW section of the forums is probably able to answer that a lot better.

What is mega server . Could you explain more on that . Thanks

With the Megaservers, all the servers are combined into a few map copies. In other words, you might pick one server as your home server but when you log on, you are in a mix of people from all the servers of your region. WvW is exempt from it, but not PvE or PvP.

“Players will no longer be segregated into separate copies of a map based on their home world selection. Instead, all players will be placed into shared copies (instances) of the map, which will be instantiated as necessary to hold the current population of that map.
Overflow shards will no longer exist.
Maps are still region-based, i.e. North American servers are separate from European servers.
Upon entering a map, players will be placed in the copy of the map based on a set of heuristics which includes your party, guild, language, and home world. This will dramatically increase the chance that you will be placed in the same map as your party and guildmates, or other players who speak your language.”

Long story short, just find the WvW Server you want to join….everything else in the game does not matter what your home world is (sans your Guild….but that looks to be made a moot point in a few weeks as well).

You should note that wanting to join a “high population Server” and being able to join it are very different things…..

I’m playing on NA Northern Shiverpeaks from the UK (for the sake of more English speakers), and my ping is perfectly fine o.o Perhaps your internet is unstable?

It doesn’t really matter anymore aside from WvW due to the megaservers being implemented, but prior to that Desolation was the best on EU for PvE in open world for sure. As far as WvW is concerned, Desolation also placed 2nd (tied with Baruch Bay and Riverside I guess, as all are listed for 31 points) in the last tournament too and that was in the gold league.

It’s days I keep crashing. This evening I crashed like 6 times and when I went back it said I didn’t even had a guild. It’s starting to getting boring, really. This should be one of the first things to care about.
