Hello everyone, kinda of a new player joining and was wandering which server should i play on, i was thinking dreamweaver or lost city, because i heard it was the oldest/most populated. I am looking to pvp in the future after i learn the game and am not really sure where to play. Also was wondering how late would the events be for some1 im est time? Thank you.

    If you want PVP go lost city. PVP is all but dead on DW. At least, for you, on LC it's forced.

    If you're in est, pick an East Coast server (Dreamweaver, Harshlands, or Raging Tides) for events that run at your time. 8pm server time will be 8pm your time. West coast are 3 hours later for you, so for example if you wanted to do an 8pm event on Lost City, it would be 11pm your time. Harshlands is the east coast forced PVP server.

    You might want to define pvp for yourself, i know it is kind of hard to do. This game offers different kind of pvp activities.

    Dueling = No risk, can be done in safe zone

    PK mode = open battle, can attack other people in pk mode when they are outside of safe zone anywhere on the map. Upon death you can drop items (guardian scrolls or safety lock is required).

    Nation war = mass pvp, no item drop, no exp loss. (twice a week)

    Territory War = mass pvp, no item drop, no exp loss. (1~3 times a week)

    Morai mayhem event = pk mode in morai (once a week)

    Different servers have different level of activity on each of those, it does not matter they are pve servers or pvp servers. You can enter pk mode on a pve server as well (most don't).

    Ask around and see what king of pvp you are interested in.

    Well i am more interested in mass pvp than pking, seeming as i am playing an archer, pking would be a bonus, do u know whether raging tide has more activity than dw? Or should i just go to harshlands , if i want rivalry battles and more people at pvp events?

    I am sure other people can help you out more now, since they know what kind of things you are interested in. I play on sanctuary, in my books it is active, not as active as it used to be, but still active. The biggest drawback of choosing servers is time zone issues. I am +12 hours from my server. Not the best time to do things.

    Between DW and RT i would say DW. I used to play both servers but have since left RT seeing as it seemed way less populated and the community wasn't as nice or helpful as DW. There are always nice people on all servers though, they just seemed harder to find. That's just my opinion though, there are others who may think otherwise.

    That was a bit of a while ago though, I've popped into RT a few times to see what was going on but it didn't seem any different. Not sure how much it's changed at this point personally.

    Well that sounds good, because I have been playing on DW but I was wondering where is the best place to go to. I have been grinding out aquametals for mount already got 1.1k xD. My only worry is do many people show up to the massive pvp events such as territory and nation wars?
