should i be in a JP server if i'm in aussie (latency)?

topic.

i get bad latency (even story mode titan is a bitch to do for me, along with ram's and dragon's voice from chimera), and my internet is not slow. i play on Ridill, a JP legacybserver. some of my fc mates who play from NA have lesser latency issues than I do.

sometimes I wonder if plahing on the JP server was a wrong choice in the first place. Would playing on an EU or NA server be better?

What do the connection descriptions say on the world selection screen? I'm on the US East Coast and mine say "Excellent" for NA/EU and "good" for JP servers. Does your screen indicate a better connection one way or the other?

o.o

I just checked, apparently NA servers = excellent and JP servers = Good.

Does that mean mine is actually somehow routed to NA before coming back to JP?

edit: I checked again and they are both Excellent now lol >.>

edit2: i also checked the ping. NA ping is around 300ms, EU ping is around 350ms and JP ping is around 190ms. geographically they seem accurate, so it means my 'latency' is most likely due to having just too many players around?
