Ok so i have been on Fort Aspenwood for a while my problem is . Its no fun anymore . Before u judge I dont mind to own and wreak other servers and have ppl everywhere anytime i can to join up wiht. But The server has been really populated for a while obver 9 months but. the past 4 or 5 months wvw has started to become really annoying i dont even want ot get on because were just dominating so hard and i want a challenge or somehthing to do . nto rlly fun when u own almost all 3 borderlands and like 70% of eb.
So my question to yall what is a lower League Server i can transfer to that still has a good community and a decent population but isnt owning everything. if that makes sense i would like to know and if u know of a guild on that server that is willing to let me in. I liek wvw alot and i do pve but mostly liek to wvw my only problem is that We just dominating so much it has become not fun anymore.-.-. Many thanks for advice
I assume you want an organized server, with people on its server wide comms, do you want easy guaranteed wins or do you want a challenge and a good fight?
My guild just transfered to Yak’s Bend and were loving it here. Generally beat other servers but we still face challenges from SBI and FA so it’s pretty exciting
i want challenges and to have fun but i dont want a crap server and i would like a guild or someone that plays XD kinda not go in a lone but it would be ok i suppose i just dont want a a crazy insanly populated server getting rlly tired of que times and dominating all the tiem
are the que times good link im not going to get qued up and wait for liek a year -.-
sometimes its horrible and ill have all these que times for like queens dail eb bl sometimes all the bls are qued up -.-
well the problem im having is if im going to a higher up server its going to be black gate . I was wondering about hte lower servers in like bronze league lol whihc has a good community and hopefully better que times whith decent not overpopulated population.

Sor does not have the Q times youre thinking, all of tier 1 actually has few Qs outside of Na prime and SEA prime, Sor is the one with the lowest quees due to its population, I thought you didnt wanna join a server thats already winning?
Kaineng! our server just start snowballing becoming stable since mass exodus!, Our only challenge is to keep pushing and not fall to last place. We have a tight knit community now and its always a challenge for every reset as we are always outnumber and still manage to push forward.

So you want a challenge because you’re bored of dominating on the top ranked Silver League server so you want to join the top ranked Gold League server..?
I hate to crush your hopes and your dreams, but it’s much of the same thing unless you play during NA Prime time on most all US servers. That’s really the only time that servers are for the most part relatively even and provide a challenge. And the worst news, is that as you go up in Tiers, the queue for NA Prime does as well. It’s not uncommon to spend upwards of 2 hours in queue during peak times.

well Im not gunna fault someone who wants to play under certain circumstances, whether a winning side or not, many people are relatively casual for example and dont wanna play under certain conditions, so meh, thats life
You should wait and see how things look after leagues
some servers will rise others will fall, it is part of wvw
look a the servers you have faced and if you enjoyed the fights you had against them and the way they fight it might be give you a good idea of who you wish to transfer to
Go to Vabbi. You probably won’t find a bigger challenge.
I’ll have to state that this is true. I have moved to vabbi just before the start of the season and I have never had a better time in WvW. You’re outmanned all the time and you have plenty of roaming (yes you have a lot of players from other servers running in small groups too).
I recommend that you check FA’s matchup threads for the past couple of months, and find out which servers FA players don’t consider “terrible” or “bads”. that should narrow down your choices.
Darkhaven, for sure. We’ve been involved in the closest matchups in the world, and even got mentioned by Anet for one of our close matchups. On top of that, even though a lot of the time it’s close calls, we do usually win, as we’re currently 2nd in our league. The best thing about Darkhaven is coverage. For our ranking, we have amazing coverage, we’re a very well rounded server by bronze standards.
Also, we have a fairly large PvE playerbase so we’re in a better position for living world content than other non-populated servers. Darkhaven is well rounded and gives you everything you could need, IMO. I’m from Darkhaven but I assure you lol, everything I’ve said is true.

You’re already on the best server there is.
Wait until the leagues are over (in two weeks). We’ll go back to facing T1/2 servers like we did pre season. We never dominated then.

If you listen to this guy, you’ll be staying on FA. I’d recommend you go to IOJ, so I can find ya and kill ya
well the problem im having is if im going to a higher up server its going to be black gate . I was wondering about hte lower servers in like bronze league lol whihc has a good community and hopefully better que times whith decent not overpopulated population.
lol I am in HoD , have been since beta, and going to transfer out of it after this season is over. You can take my spot.
The whole server seems to have ADD. The problem with the lower pop servers is they are only going to do whatever happens to be shiny at the time. At this time it is WvW and only because of the season and achievements. And I can tell you that they most likely sandbagged to even be in bronze to begin with because we know we would have gotten murdered in silver.
If you do transfer to a bronze, keep in mind you will have a lot of difficulty getting the server to do anything other that what is new at that moment for living story or achievements. They cannot sustain any groups for anything else like Teq, or temples, and even other world bosses. And that is why I will be transferring out of bronze after the season is over. I would like to be able to not have an issue finding stuff to do other than the current shiny object Anet throws our way because it takes away from everything else.
I’d put in a third vote for Kaineng; we’ve been pretty steadily second place in our week-to-week match ups, at least, so we’re not getting completely steamrolled by everything, but definitely not dominating. Also it’s super-rare to queue anything but EB on reset night.
The only thing to keep in mind is that you mentioned you’re not a big fan of ts, and that’s where our primary voip contact is happening. :<
devonas rest we are consistently in 2nd or 3rd place with the first place server just smacking us yet if you join the servers main zerg you will have a blast they always get their objective and they do really really well in a skirmish
lol well I do want a challenge but I dont want to be in a predicament leaving me saying now what. And i dont want to get steam rolled hard. Though geting stream rolled here and there isnt bad either honestly
Worst time to transfer now. Wait a few weeks and see how the landscape is in normal matches. FA’s matches won’t be the same after leagues.
T1 balance was destroyed by leagues which will disrupt some t2 matches but T2/3 should still be getting a competitive set of matches. FA is basically Maguuma’s equal with power and coverage so that will always be an awesome match.
it is but i dont think it will be the same for me even aftr the matches reset and things get settled again u see and a lot of my friends move i think this would be the oportunity to go to a new server meet new ppl and kinda start over with it in a sense.
So my question to yall what is a lower League Server i can transfer to that still has a good community and a decent population but isnt owning everything. if that makes sense i would like to know and if u know of a guild on that server that is willing to let me in. I liek wvw alot and i do pve but mostly liek to wvw my only problem is that We just dominating so much it has become not fun anymore.-.-. Many thanks for advice
Any of the Bronze League NA servers except the the top few (3 or so ) would probably give you what you are looking for. Just bear in mind that you may find yourself on a server that’s being dominated. Most of the time, there is still plenty to do and you can have a lot of fun with it if you aren’t going to worry about losing in points, but it can still be disheartening to have an huge enemy zerg show up on your borderlands or corner of the Eternal Battlegrounds and take whatever they want without being able to do anything about it and it can be disheartening to lose everything every night because your server doesn’t have overnight coverage. If you can live with that, then you can still have a lot of fun on the lower-tier Bronze servers because defending against huge numbers provides a lot of opportunity for kills and loot and having all of your stuff taken away provides a lot of opportunity to take stuff back.
I know Eredon Terracce would be happy to have more help because one of the other nice things about low-tier servers is that everyone matters. We have a variety of guilds and players with different play styles ranging from looking for 1v1 and small group open field fights, taking objectives (sometimes specializing on different maps), and even defending against servers that outnumber us and succeeding more often than our numbers suggest we should. One person can make a difference down here.
(I think you’re looking at higher tiers, but wanted to add this for others in the same boat or in case your mind isn’t set yet.)
If you like the people at FA might want to hang until leagues are over (next week). Matchups should return to normal and I am sure some of the T2 servers who have been punching above their weight class with T1 will be happy to flog FA for a while.
If you want to try a new server, anything T4-T6 is a good choice IMO. Once the leagues are over, the fights in this region are some of the best in the game. The server I am on (BP) is pretty great with a nice dedicated WvW presence along with server TS and a welcoming attitude.

The problem is that WvW doesn’t scale gradually. There is a fairly narrow range where there is an even challenge but any substantial number advantage either way produces a blow-out. So at almost any tier, you’ll get decent match-ups where at least two of the servers are competitive and even decent times during almost any match-up where differences in coverage patterns make various servers compatible, but if you aren’t on a reliably dominant server that’s always winning, that means you are going to be on one of the servers that they wind up dominating when put up against them and steamrollering is going to happen for at least some of the match-up.
The one nice thing about the lower tiers is that there is rarely 100% map coverage from any server, which means that there is almost always an opportunity for a small team to do something on one of the map. I’ve also seen some pretty epic successful defenses against impossible odds (e.g., the two other servers fighting us in the lord’s room of a keep) because one thing you’ll find at the bottom is that there aren’t a lot of mindless pick-up players looking to follow a zerg for points, so what’s left are fairly die-hard WvW players who are actually pretty good and can hit a zerging opponent pretty hard. Quite a few players who have transferred around comment that they think the individual skill level at the lower tiers is better than in the upper tiers.
