Hey guys. Im having a bit of trouble.

Currently im a member of the Dreamweaver server.

Im trying to find the best server for me though.
I like a friendly server, with nice high level helpers.
Also i live in Dubai, so i need the server with best connection.
Could people please help me decide what server i should be?

    If you're using GO, any of them should be a pretty decent connect. I'm in Riyadh and have no real issues of lag, except on pretty bad sandstorm days. Orbit was kinda ok, but had too many connection issues in general. And having the satellite constantly readjusted was a pain.
    Fist are the worst at PvP AND PvE, if you disagree, as I said, take it to PM's or make your own guide. Go here if you want to debate about it. - Lyndura

    the best is to find the type of server you want:
    You'll see less very well geared people on new servers than the older one (Like Dreamweaver)
    PvP: Harsland (Not so new, but it's younger than Lost City)
    PvE: Archosaure (Who are very empty)

    You have less PvP (Player Vs Player) on PvE server and by far. so be sure of your choice :)

    You should base your choice of server on whichever ones have the lowest ping time (the smallest MS you see listed when you select the server when logging in) and whether it is PvE (Player versus Environment) or PvP (Player versus Player). If the ping times are fairly similar for you, then the time zone the servers are in may be a factor as well.

    The servers are:
    Lost City - This is a West Coast PvP server.
    Heaven's Tear - This is a West Coast PvE server.
    Sanctuary - This is a West Coast PvE server.
    Archosaur - This is a West Coast PvE server.
    Harshlands - This is an East Coast PvP server.
    Dreamweaver - This is an East Coast PvE server.
    Raging Tide - This is an East Coast PvE server.

    On PvP servers, once you reach level 30 then anyone can attack your character and you can attack anyone else. On PvE servers, players normally can only attack each other if they go into PK (Player Killing) mode, which lasts for 10 hours minimum. (There are still a few areas, such as some rooms in the Cube of Fate, in which PK is always enabled.)

    The East Coast servers are on Eastern time (EST or EDT, UTC -5 or -4, respectively) and the West Coast servers are on Pacific time (PST or PDT, UTC -8 or -7). A lot of events on PWI happen in the evening (8:50 PM - midnight), server time, so if the ping times are about the same you might want to choose based on which coast's time zone works better for you.

    For more information on the servers, see the Servers entry in the PWI wiki.

    Hope that helps!
