Tried to make a funny post earlier about this, but ran into some robotic moderator desperately needing an humor transplant so I’ll get straight to the point this time.
Desolation is currently the 4th ranked server in EU and at prime time can hold its own against anyone and anything. What we seriously lack right now to rise to the top is a big numerical presence from 1-2AM till 12AM or so, especially during weekdays.
If you’re an NA-based guild interested in WvW you could do a lot worse than to think about a transfer. Consider this:
A) queues will be either short or non-existent. If you’re east coast based your 20:00 prime time translates to 2:00 AM here. West coast is even better, turning into 5:00 AM. You can be pretty sure there’s at least one of the 4 maps (and quite often several) who won’t have any queue at those times.
B) your contribution will be quite significant but OTOH you’re not going to be reduced to PvDoor because, quite frankly, the massive amount of people the french servers (don’t ask me why but, at least currently, it’s them) can field 24/7 borders on the ludicrous. You will have your work cut out for you.
You don’t even have to believe me… just send an observer and have him watch the situation for 3-4 days and then report it.
