I have been playing on Balmung from Europe since I started XIV. Leveling, crafting, gathering, raiding...are all fine to me. I have never felt that the latency gap there is between me (~150ms or more) and locals (~50ms or less) was big enough to justify a transfer. For a slow-paced game like FFXIV, that discrepency means virtually nothing.
And then, adding the social aspect of the game, I am not willing to give up the contacts I have made over those two years for a slightly smoother experience.
The choice is ultimately yours.
Adding my thoughts here;
I've been on the server for over a year, year and a half probably; and I actually noticed a slight improvement in my lag when Heavensward arrived. I've no clue why, but since then it's been perfectly playable even with the lag. Suspect you eventually just get better at dodging things when you have half a second less time to do it.
So I'm staying put! I like that most people I see around are RP'ers and I've made some strong ties here.
