Guild Wars 2

Hi everybody, I’m looking for a well rounded server that’s very active in pve and wvw. I heard TC is populated in both with a good community. How hard is it to find groups for dungeons or DEs here. Also how are queue times during NA prime time? Thanks.

Tarnished Coast is by and large a roleplaying server (unofficially), so if you want to find a group your best bet is to hang out where the RPers do… (pick a tavern, any tavern)

I have not seen any queues since I have been there, and I started headstart on this server. Dungeon groups are also relatively easy to come by. The longest I ever had to wait for a group was like 10 minutes, and they came to ME.

As a community, it is one of the best in the game, people are friendly and ready to help. As for WvW, well if we can get enough people interested in roleplaying there, we might have more of a presence. As it is now, I always see us lower on the list… which I assume is because most folks hang out in the regular world, rather than wvw.

As far as servers go though, I would not trade this bunch for anything. I love Tarnished Coast. No matter where I go, I can always find someone to pve with, and tell stories after our fun at the nearest bar.

I don’t RP (don’t go to Taverns etc.) but I haven’t had a problem finding folks to do stuff with in Tarnished Coast.

I recently got 100% map completion and it was due to so many random people helping me with getting skill points and POIs etc. (especially in Orr). Like the poster above me said .. haven’t had a problem finding dungeon groups either.

Now most of the time I’m in WvW and you tend to see the same faces but it’s slowly growing (we’re starting to have Qs now at certain hours which is bittersweet) – plus we’ve been consistently moving up the rankings since launch.

In a nutshell it’s a really really friendly community (feel free to /w me lol)

Actually, for an RP server, TC is doing pretty good. I like the community as well, everyone is generally helpful and less of a kitten, people are more polite, despite the trolls in LA. Some of my guildmates don’t like to pug dungeons, but for me, pugging them has been wonderful on TC. The veteran dungeon-ers generally give out tips and help newbies into dungeons, and i’ve never seen anyone discriminate against a class or a level (say, a lvl 35 necro wants to go for ac explo), even if admittedly, things will run a bit smoother if that lvl 35 is lvl 80 in full exo gear. Also people often say “plinx up” usually to help people farm in cursed shore, although I tend to stay away there anymore as farming is getting harder (harder to tag mobs. and i’m not even gunning for a legendary, i think). you may also /w me, i’m always looking for more cool people to chat/do dungeons with on the server :P (but I mostly do ac/cm at the moment. :P)

TC is pretty nice server, though like everywhere else some maps are completely desolate at this point. There are just too many low to mid level maps to populate. Once you reach the end game, CS is always packed with folks willing to help you though.
