Hello,
Can someone who knows the server well answer these questions for us? We are from a tier 1 server in North America and looking for a server where we can play resets.We're making secondary accounts here. NA resets in T1 queues are pretty bad and we can't play together as a guild.
How is your North American pug population?
Do you have a server teamspeak we can use?
-
1. We do have a teamspeak server, ts.farshiverpeaks.com (feel free to poke in, we use a verification system but you should be able to to see how our teamspeak is without being able to join the borderland channels)
2. Our North American pug population is low, it's usually dedicated EU players who stay up late in the night who provide the so called night shift on our server. Altho i haven't played NA time in weekdays for some time so hopefully someone else who does will reply here aswell for some more info :)
Just keep in mind that EU reset is a bit earlier than NA reset if you do transfer to EU.
-
Yeah, what Kris said, our reset time would be 11am your time, however I believe we're nearly full and queued? Not sure on that as I don't really play reset so best option would be to contact Goldi (goldibird.6375) and she should be able to help you.

Thanks for the reply. We will be playing during the NA reset time not the EU reset time so it will be around 9PM EST NA timezone. We shouldn't contribute on your queue times since we're basically off time zone. We're trying to get away from the long queues of NA reset by playing to an eu server during our own reset. Sorry for the confusion. Can we have a rough estimate of your NA pug population?
-
Ah well yeah that should be fine for queues, we quite regularly have around 30-40 man group running from somewhere between 11am-5pm UTC (eg. your reset). Doesn't happen every day, but quite often, and it's usually made up of a good few pugs (10-15), not sure if they're from NA or EU though. Mostly we all just run with open raid during those times.

Before "selling ourself" as a new home for a NA guild, could you maybe tell something about the guild you're in ? - Currently as a server, we're in a spot we want to be in (bumping up and down between 3-5 place) and where we're "lacking" is night time / morning which is what keeps us in the spot we wanna be. If we gain too many NA players/ night players, we will rise to a level that we didn't wanted to go to. So this is really important to know - how many people are we talking about here?
You are more than welcome to contact me ingame - goldibird.6375 or poke me on TeamSpeak - [SOUL] Goldi Server Admin.
I will be happy to answer your questions.
Goldi.

Oh you don't have to worry about us ppting for you guys. We are a fight focused guild that can rally 25 people on average. We don't push for ppt but we will defend your upgraded keeps/towers if needed. Also, we will most probably only play for your server twice a week since we're just getting away from our own reset 50+ queues and days that the queues/lag are horrible. I don't think we will be making much of an impact ppt wise :)
-
Good to hear that you won't go for the PPT :) Usually on reset night there will be something to fight all night (piken square have an american fight guild with 15ish people? they go by the name : Of war [CoG] at least, so idk if your 25 man average group might be a bit overkill for them)
-
Which eu server do you think has the most NA players or players who play NA time? We'd like to go against them.
-
Seafarer's Rest have the highest amount, it's a reason they are #1 server EU. Anything after this can be argued back and forth who got the most numbers, but to be fair it depends on the fair weather players.
The list like i see it:
1. SFR
2. Desolation (they have alot of fair weather players and pugs)
3. FSP (EU players mostly, i haven't seen too many americans since NUDE went back to NA) / Piken ([CoG] NA guild is covering their night shift along with EU pugs)
But basically if you keep an eye on the matchup for this week (Desolation vs Piken vs FSP) you can see which server gains the most points during your raid time.
However during friday reset there should be large pug zergs for all the servers through the night.
Also try to keep in mind that any guild of your size can change the EU tiers even if you do not play for PPT, some servers like jade sea for example will mostly bunker inside structures and that way you do sort of need to PPT to fight them aswell as when they wipe they will probably get demoralized and call it a night.

..

From what server in NA are you from?
I've been on a few myself.
-
Looking at it, it would of been quite pointless you guys transferring here anyway, since the main challenge for you (SFR) normally run/hide/log off when facing FSP.
-
we changed our mind...we're coming here. Deso is full.
To answer the server question, we're from Jadequarry.We'll probably be ready in 2 weeks. See you all then!
-
See you then! :)
-
If you want to try fighting against EU guilds, you could also try starting a raid 3 - 4 hours before your prime, I think it's about time when we only have a few guilds raiding without queues, and especially when fighting against frenchies there's still going to be some action :)
-
I've been on blackgate for a year and also been on fort aspenwood for a few months.
Maybe you reconize my guild tag from BG, we had daily 15-25 players in raids on EU primetime.
Whats the guilds name btw?

I really hope that you hold your word about this
-
Well even if they go for PPT they will primarily play friday at reset only, which will not make a huge difference except boost our low pug morale when they see we are in lead saturday morning :P

Welcome to fsp 😄

Well welcome to FSP :P
