So theoretically, any lag you get on your respective servers, would be the same on any other servers.
That would be, until they implement the EU servers they announced at Fanfest, and haven't followed up with any information on, as of yet.
As for lag in general? It depends, it's mostly due to server load, if anything (seriously, hunting at peak-times is a complete no-go with me). I don't get any instance lag, and no lag with roleplaying in hotspots. Though, as a disclaimer, I have pretty terrible internet, due to the exchange being shared with two suburbs in my city so I average ~3mb download speed.
That's all I can think of, if you have any questions, I wouldn't mind answering more~
Thanks for the quick replies!
Its good to know what kind of experience other EU players are getting on the NA servers, and its good news that their moving the EU server to the EU (kinda makes sense).Â
Perhaps I'll consider moving to either Balmung or Gilgamesh, been craving some RP for a while now. Do you also progress in PvE content too?
I'm on Turn 8 in Second Coil after, honestly, not spending a lot of time in there. Your only struggle -might- be attempting to find a GMT-friendly static, if that's one of your main interests. Though, I have seen a few advertisements for permanent static members in GMT-friendly times, not to mention PF always has people looking for replacements in a static.
There's plenty of Linkshells for it too, from what I hear!
We have a few EU players in my Free Company too, and the others are progressing through the Final Coil absolutely perfectly fine. If I'm honest, as long as you have an above-average (or nothing comparatively as bad as mine) internet connection, the place is just as easy in terms of latency etc.
