I'm trying to find a pvp server that i get a decent ping..any suggestions? Now that we can roll DK's anywhere i'd like to roll one on a server with a decent ping. I'm getting 500+ms on my us server, only getting about 350 ms on the oceanic server. Anyone getting better? |

I didn't know this in the beginning, but keep in mind that Oceanic servers are also located in the United States. Doesn't make any sense whatsoever, but that's where they are. So your ping on those servers is no different than your ping, for the most part, on any US based server. There are Asian servers, but you need to buy the particular client-based version for those servers, which means playing in whatever language that one happens to be in.
I play on an Oceanic server, but the only advantage is the time the server is on. It's 2 hours difference from me, so the people playing are pretty much up around the same time I am. It's the only difference from a US server. |

Well, it's probably a given that everyone's ping is going to be different. I suggest you make a random character on every server and check pings til you find a decent server. I just did that and it literally took 30 seconds to make a character and log in and check ping times. |
