moving from EU to NA
As part of TC, I’ve most hated-in-a-good-way fighting against SoS & DB, so I’d recommend Borlis or Kaineng (their respective med-pop partners). That gives you a chance to experience some good fights, paired with a fun world, and a chance to meet people from guilds on a potential, high-pop target world
Here’s why I’ve made that recommendation. Start with the list on the wiki. We find a lot of worlds are currently full (and will probably remain so for months).
So starting with one of the medium-population worlds has advantages (currently: Anvil, Borlis, Eredon, & Kaineng). First, the cost to move is 50% or less (500 gems vs 1000 for high and 1800 for very high). Second, you’ll get a chance to get a feel for higher-tier WvW in NA, since the med-pop worlds are likely to re-link every 3 months.
So consider:
- Anvil, linked with Crystal, in the T3 match up this week.
- Borlis, linked with SoS in this week’s T4
- Eredon, linked with NSP, also T3
- Kaineng, with DB, also T4
After spending 3 months, you should know enough to decide if you like the small world (and getting bumped around after re-linking), if you like the higher-pop world you’re linked with, or whether you are ready for a change (and by that point, you should know enough to make the decision easier).
Good luck.

I’m on dr linked with fa and the fights are pretty decent. avoid t1 like the plague! ive played there for years and its just pointless to put effort into wvw there unless youre a mindless zerger.

I completely disagree. I’ve never enjoyed mindless zerging and I’ve spent most of my time in T1 & T2, mostly as a roamer or in small-squad situations. I find it much more interesting in T1 (most of the time) than in any sort of zerg v zerg, although that can be fun in short doses.
Each person has to figure out what they like to do in WvW; we can’t really tell someone else what is going to be fun.

It also depends what time you are on. I’m an EU player who has been on an NA server since launch, and so I’m on before NA prime time. Linking has taken me into all of the tiers, and while it’s true that T1 is busier than T4 at the times I play, it is not true that you can’t roam in T1 or zerg in T4.
It’s hard to give you advice since I don’t know what you are looking for or what your preferred play style is. If you have patience I’d recommend a linked server and let it hop you around a bit until you find a home.
