    Some Insight on Choosing a Server? Please and Thank You!

    I'm about to start playing the game, except I can't decide what server to choose!

    I'm considering Faerie and Lamia.

    I hear awesome things about the community of Faerie. The only bad thing i hear about Faerie is the end game doesn't seem to be as heavily explored compared to other servers. As for Lamia, it seems to be a server that evenly touches on all of the aspects of the game, but the community doesn't sound as inviting as Faerie (my information could be all off)

    I'm not hardcore or anything, but i'm looking forward to experiencing everything the game has to offer.

    I'd prefer a server that isn't crazy high in population, but something that's still a nice number. (I'd like to maintain decent fps)

    Ideally, i'd like a server that touches almost evenly on every aspect of the game (and has an awesome community) and has a population that's between medium and highest.

    If anyone has anything to say about Faerie or Lamia or info on other servers that may fit my criteria i would love to hear it!

    I can't speak for their communities, progressions, etc.

    What I can tell you though is that Faerie and Lamia are currently two of the most populated servers (#4 and 5 most populated of NA-focused servers; 9th and 10th globally), and the population difference is only a couple thousand characters. X|V Soul has data on populations.

    Try Coeurl.
    Fantastic server, most the time. Small enough where your reputation carries a lot of weight, populated enough that you can get stuff done and hunts are -somewhat- balanced.
