Time to reroll from PC-EU to PC-NA?

I'm playing on both servers since about Mai 2018 (only EU before). NA is a lot more stable generally speaking, but tends to have some nasty ping spikes for me sometimes. Also, since Update 25, some problems are the same.

Personally, I recommend playing on both servers. Playing on EU whenever it is fine and you want to play with your old guild members and friends, and switching to NA whenever you feel like it. But having a grown-up character on PC-NA to go to when EU is down again can never be wrong. I'm spending most of my solo time on NA at th moment, mostly at EU server off-hours, having a CP 460 char, a well-skilled crafter, a lot of crown stuff bought from Twitch crown gems, and a nice house. Even one of my EU guild members is on NA, too, which is really nice. But whenever my friends want to play on PC EU I'm there.

There's also another guild on NA I can recommend for EU players: EU Server Refugee Shelter. I don't know whether it's bigger or smaller than the other EU Refugee guild though. We exist since October 2019.

Thanks Phoebe. There are currently about 25 players in the guild we are in (I am not the GM). Might be best if we merge.

We're 42 at the moment. Too bad there are 2 guilds now, we could be really great together

I'm not the guild master either, but if you PM me the user name of yours I can mail her or him the name of our guild master?

imagine having 95% completed main character on eu...and all lorebooks/eidetic memory and bills of gold and what not...and then moving to a server where you have nothing...no thx. unless they make cross servers a thing so I can bring my main there whenever I feel like and vice versa...so meh and yes im 1 of the people who plays on pc eu with 60 ping and 80 ping on na prime time so that's not an issue for me...if only the servers would work properly Y_Y

EU guilds must be like buses. I have waited a year to fine one, then I find 2 in less than a week!

I'm really bad with names, so if you send me a friend invite, we can chat then and swap GM names.

I suspect that yours might become the main one. I am the designated crafter and house owner, which doesn't say much:o

It's not as hard as it sounds. I started with nothing on the NA server, too... By now, my main has almost all skyshards except for Cyrodiil, my main and my crafter have analyzed almost all traits, my crafter has learned a lot of styles, my third character will be done with horse training in a few weeks, I have a nice medium and a nice apartment home, and I have almost two dozen mounts of which I only ever bought one for crowns. My only problem is gold,I'm as poor as a church mouse, since whenever I get some I immediately spend it on furniture and furnishing plans

Sometimes, I feel starting over new can be a lot of fun. I also have a second account (mostly dedicated to RP-only chars) with a CP 330 char on EU and a CP 200 char on NA.

It's all about what you want really. For me, I would rather start again (which I did), on a server which is more reliable, than stay as I was and have the game fall over every time there is an event.

I levelled my sixth character yesterday, have 550cp, all the stuff that I have on the EU crown store with gold.

The only real differences between the two now, is that I have 300 more cp on EU, and have one more levelled character on EU than n.a..

I also have a couple of chars on the NA server, started with the Skyrim house event to support.

Would be happy to receive a guild invite for "EU server refugee" @woufff - thanks

I've been touring Cyrodiil recently on PC-NA, to see how it looks like compared to its broken EU equivalent.
Since I'm still levelling my characters, I don't have any proper PvP gear yet, but I decided to give it a try anyway just to see what the performance is like. Tested with 3/3/3 bars pop.

And I have to say, the difference is like night and day, in favor of PC-NA:

Abilities actually work quite reliably
Combat in general works relatively well
Nowhere nearly as many huge desyncs as on PC-EU
My sieges aren't perpetually "busy"!
Porting to an objective besieged by a faction stack doesn't crash or disconnect me
Generally a lot less lag.

Incidentally, I was extremely amused by a few people complaining in zonechat about "lag" or "broken game". LMFAO - they clearly have no clue about how real lag and brokenness looks like, they should try PC-EU for a change
