You can move for free if you delete all characters should you not like the fa queues (might not be when you play, but na prime is bad)

Your choices may be more limited then. Mos.millenium.org (don’t know how to hyperlink on the iPad) shows the rankings with t1 highest t8 lowest in na. The higher you go, the more active off hours are in general.
If you join eu servers – that time is their prime time (I think) and may have more choices….

There is only one correct answer – ask your own server how they use the tags….
Even then you may find variations with each commanders, purple tags on YB for example are usually guild, but some are open, some are closed, and some are after raid pugmanders that don’t switch to blue……

Only matters for wvw as pve is megaserver. T1 and t2 are good bets for wvw activity, but 4 of those servers are full. You will need to provide a little more information on whether you like large scale (Zerg) or small scale (havoc roam). More importantly, at what time of day do you play? Many tiers are quite active North America prime, but not as active in OCX, sea, or eu time.

Free to move down, but not up? Also each server has a limited amount of free slots- ie not unlimited free transfers like HOD season2……

Already said they weren’t supporting a 4th game mode – so best you can really ask for is a eotm style OS…..
Judging by the state of wvw and PvP I’d day they’re not interested in supporting more than one game mode…
You may be right, but was referring to an anet reply to gvgs where they did not have resources to support a 4th game mode. If I had thought about it at the time, would have saved it to copy/paste for every one of these threads. I don’t agree or disagree with the response, it is what it is though…..

Its pretty surprising that a server like Darkhaven went full right after the $10 sale went live O.o
WoW! This is really serious issue now. Is anet actively doing anything? Why a T4 server will go full, even for awhile. Anet WvW team need to seriously start looking at the population, you are making a lot of players really frustrated. If you are already working on something, at least do a soft fix like increasing the cap on particular servers. TBH, I find it puzzling why even the last ranked server is rated Very High.
They could be setting servers to full in order to force the new accounts into the lower tiered servers and bring up their population.
Then they ought to set Maguuma and SBI to full. Why set Dragonbrand (2nd place t3) and Darkhaven (1st place t4) to full instead of Mag (1st place t3) and SBI (3rd place t3). Makes no sense. They must just be taking into account all dem pve accounts and probably inactive accounts as well.
What? No don’t set SBI to Full. We’re the weakling in the match.
Not to mention FA and YB 1 and 2 in t2 not full…..
The calculation for full does seem odd or outdated since megaserver….

Na prime – you are probably ok through at least t4 or maybe even lower. If you are playing when na sleeps or works, then you may want higher tiers…….

One note- your girlfriend/friends can transfer for free if they delete all characters. You said they were new so maybe they are still low level?
T2, where I am, is fun, but the matches are not close at all. T4 might be your answer, but you need to explain when you play. Some servers have good na prime, but not so much during other times.
YB→YB→YB→YB→YB→YB→YB→most likely YB
Neither TC or FA is moving much. It would take a miracle roll, manual intervention, divine intervention, or seasons for that gap to close any time soon…..
YB→YB→YB→YB→YB→YB→YB→most likely YB
They do seem to burn out faster though. It could be that all the hoops and whistles they need to go through is a huge factor, but I wonder if it isn’t more like progressive raiding in other mmos? That is, what starts out very fun turns old as it becomes more like a job with a schedule…

Na prime might present que issues on fa. Even YB can have que issues if a large pug group tries to map hop. Reset is a 4 BL que on both. Sbi has a huge ebg presence na prime – another place to consider for casual pug mode – don’t know about queues (if any)

The issue with original pic is a ton of Rams not near any door. They are normally used to bust down a gate. They do have a fear attack as well, but look how many were built.
This Was obviously done to waste supply. Without supply, legit siege that has a reasonable chance to assist in defense – ac / ballista / treb cannot be built. Even if there is unlimited supply (and there isn’t), there is a cap to the # of siege that can be built.

Lol at people upset over fighting the same server 3 weeks in a row.
People in T1-NA have been fighting the same 3 servers for the last 7 months.
They’re also the only ones not complaining…
They also cooperated to keep the same 3 servers there for awhile (think that ended).
YB→YB→YB→YB→YB→YB→YB→most likely YB
The matches are mostly blowouts anyway, might as well add more variety…..

Something new, FA has a 0.183692 chance to play in T1.
I get mixed responses from folk at FA if they indeed want to be the new kids in T1. Though i think everyone at t1 wants a revolving door of mixes and matches.
Seems many don’t, but t2 is second most unbalanced/lopsided next to t8……

Hmm I thought you had to be within 100 Glicko to even have a chance. TC/fa > 100 SOS/db > 100…
Nope. RNG is exactly that: random. We’ve been matched with servers 300 glicko higher than us and 200 glicko lower than us. It does happen.
If that is true, how was t1 100% locked for so long? Once the first domino falls maybe there is an unavoidable ripple effect though……
The server has +/-100(or maybe a bit more) random roll. But it is always possible to be matched with servers with a much higher/lower glicko rating.
E.g. DB has a small chance of swapping position with SoS. If that happens, that means they are matched up with a server(FA) that is 200 glicko higher than them.
But you need to compare the lowest of one tier and highest of the one below. Sure fa can be 200+ if SOS/db swap. The question was what is that breakpoint ? Lowest t1 and highest t2 is 130ish apart – that is where I thought the 100 came into play. It can’t be 200 or t1 would not have been 100% locked the last several months….. Chaba may have the right answer……

It’s kinda interesting how many people are sounding off about their distaste for “open field siege” without really reading the OP’s situation. Which is… trebs on a gate.
Found that funny myself. Most wouldn’t consider siege to knock down doors open field…. More likely than not, the people were worried the enemies would log or jump BLs if pushed too hard…..
YB→YB→YB→YB→YB→YB→YB→most likely YB
TC was not full earlier and in na prime. I had to look twice…. Either way, op already moved……

Of course it is the fights tier – one random internet pserson says so. It must be true !

T3 want to fight, get new guilds, get new bandwagoners, start winning i WvW.
T3 rise to T2, everyone go “omg they want to win?!” and get even more bandwagoners.
T3 become T1 and the circle of life begins again.Err, the OP is trying to attract both allies and enemies to improve play in the bracket, not stack one server to push it up above the others.
Does seem like t2 come to t3 the new fights tier. In which case the circle of life described by dawdler is fulfilled…

After choosing, if you found you just don’t fit a server for wvw – you can transfer for free by deleting all your characters and starting over…. Not a big deal to “erase” 20 or so levels….

PvX and casual WvW’ers will be in PvE. Trying the new area, making their specializations, making their Revenant.
EotM will be armies of uplevel Revenants and nothing else.. Lawls!
Probably, but I am sure u will see tons of insta 80s with saved up tomes as well….. I will probably insta 80 one and slow level a second myself….

I have been fighting fa for months – never seen them run – in fact usually blob you down ( NA prime anyway). If you are on when ra me and forget the third cn guild is on – it is pvd because SOS and YB don’t have the coverage…… If it is eotm, that isn’t really wvw and is 1 big karma train.

What server ? What time zone? What map?
We have our ppt people for sure, but running from a sighted Zerg seems eotmish to me…..

Don’t waste your gold on this sort of match…. You could always eotm and hope for a better match on reset.

On top of that … 4 t2 servers meant rng down to a t3 match which was no fun for anyone – fa had the least chance to roll that match….
Meanwhile bg, TC, Jq, db, and SOS went full status most likely fueling a panic mode for some to move before the other 2 t2s went full as well…..

Hahah that has got to be the most kittened up matchup ever.
Realize nsp and ioj have had months of no relief from totally unbalanced matches – not just a week or two. After months, I am sure many have moved or are taking a break. Respect to those that did remain and still try to have fun.

of course I can and do carry multiple weapons in inventory and switch when needed.
The ui was built for 2 weapon sets on the character screen already not 3 – 4 – 5 etc. I am a developer ( not game) and enable / disable based on a condition is easy. You can’t port if in combat, just asking really how hard to use the same condition check used there to prevent a weapon swap?
YB→YB→YB→YB→YB→YB→YB→most likely YB
Because you could easily use it for combos before a fight as you stay OOC as long as you don’t hit an enemy
This is a valid reason, but why not flush the activities of weapon set 1 when you switch to 2 – negating said combos?
Just seems on the surface there should be a way to give you the QOL experience without providing any advantage over what you can do right now….
YB→YB→YB→YB→YB→YB→YB→most likely YB
I understand with attunement for ele and legends for revenant why there is no in combat weapon swap. Why can’t there be 2 weapon slots where swap is only enabled out of combat?
I know you can manually swap each time OOC, but is it really that hard to use 2 slots and simply enable/disable swap depedending on combat status? Hated this with ele and will tire of it quickly on revenant……

Pvp in pve zone caters to a minority. It will kitten off more people than it will please so a non starter. Turning an existing pve zone into a pvp zone – separate from the pve version – may have some merit….

NA could have used it to sort out t2. Now it could maybe use it to sort out t1 by breaking that barrier down for fa ( you should do ok).

As I think you should be able to. It makes sense and will feel more realistic. If you aim an arrow cart one way and hit fire its should fire regardless of if you can “see the location.”
shooting arrows through a wall is so realistic
No, but arcing over is. Of course to work properly you would need to change the arc which affects the distance etc – not worth the time.
I think the real answer was to make it an even playing field so you didn’t need to run in windowed mode super stretched like some do. What interests me more – is a super size Norn more advantageous than a tiny asura for these things….
