FAQ: What server should i play on?

    i think i might come back since the game improved a lot i just need an aswer:
    which is the most populated server (pvp or pve)?


    thanks for the answers.




    EDIT by MrsCuriosity: Moved to correct section

    Can a mod sticky this and make the title a bit clearer please, this question gets asked about every 2 to 3 days...


    Most populated server is Killian (pvp). The 2nd most populated server and the most populated pve server is Fraya.


    Don't go to any other pvp server as they are dead.


    Arcadia (pve) has a decent population although from what I've heard our broker prices are quite a bit higher than the big two. I haven't visited the other servers so I can't really do a comparison. Don't know about the other pve servers.

    Thanks Dharc.


    Anyone that wants to add to what I said please do as I don't know the other servers so well.

    PVE = Fraya
    PVP = Killian

    Only prices of Abyss/Regent were lower on Fraya before the last patch, and not so much (like on Killian), everything else was about the same.

    From my experience, though, Fraya is lagging like a beast, so I choose Veritas: decent population and no lag.

    Veritas has population?

    Surprising but yes!


    Well, nothing alike to Fraya, but it is also way above of the other PvE servers.
    Well, at least people from Veritas show up on the rankings, not like other servers. And each nexus has ~100-110 participants, which is just perfect IMO. (As we don't have to "share" nexuses with others, we don't have to clean multiple points simultaneously, and sometimes manage to do a full-clear, which is nice credit-wise.)

    And how about Arcadia? i used have some chars there

    i have one (maybe) stupid question ... what is the main difference between pvp and pve server? i didn't notice any basic difference

    on pve servers there's no outlaw declaration skill (= no PKing in open world) and guilds can set pacifistic state (you cant GvG them).


    other than that there are no diffirences.

    [Zebra] Ksero, Halves, Panzerkampfelin, Kseal, Kaitsuni, Tanizaki, Ruxia, Bride, Mooncookies @ Fraya

    Major difference, most people are nicer and there are less 'drama-queens' on PvE servers.


    On Arcadia (PvE), the first interaction I had with a level 60 was being given a free xp boost and 100g.


    On Killian (PvP) , I was killed.

    Quote from Johanides

    and what about quest and dungeons ... are they the same?


    Outlaw (or open-world pvp) is the ONLY difference between a pve and pvp server
