Hi all, I’m playing from the west coast NA (Oregon) and I’m currently on Tarnished Coast getting an average of 55 ping. Been trying to find information about data center locations for NA servers, but to no avail. Can anyone drop me a link or recommend me a server where I can get optimal ping from my location?

Thanks!

The NA servers are in Texas, and the EU ones in Germany.

Btw, what’s wrong with 55 ping? To me that sounds awesome (200+ normally from Australia)

All servers in NA use the same data center. Your only other choice is to transfer to an EU server and use the data center in Frankfort, Germany.

Here’s the information you sought: https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/World#Mechanics_and_terminology

Your ping is fine. You are closer to the data center than the Studio. I’m even closer to the data center, and my ping averages around 80-90.

Good luck.

There are no servers with different pings. Only Map IPs, possibly. One is placed into a different Map IP with each change of maps. It makes absolutely no difference which server you choose. They all connect to either Texas for NA, or Germany for EU.
