EU Current Highest Population server?

[Hyunckel]

Either Ragnarok (Legacy server) or Odin. I don't think there is any time of the day that you can create new characters on Ragnarok. For Odin, you need to wait till late night early morning before being able to (at least during week end). Moogle is the 3rd one to 'open up' new character creation, usually a lol bit before Odin does so.

If you go by XIVSoul website, not sure if it has been updated (the front page says it has, not sure if the data itself has) but if you go by who got the Magitek Mount (since everyone gets it automatically after cleaning the main quest) or looking at the Company Chocobo:

http://xivsoul.com/world/Ragnarok/mounts 28,536 Chocobo / 15,936 Magitek
http://xivsoul.com/world/Odin/mounts 31,798 Chocobo / 14,014 Magitek
http://xivsoul.com/world/Moogle/mounts 27,406 Chocobo / 13,377 (<- So L33T)
http://xivsoul.com/world/Phoenix/mounts 30,916 Chocobo / 11,869
http://xivsoul.com/world/Cerberus/mounts 27,945 Chocobo / 11,867
http://xivsoul.com/world/Lich/mounts 22,313 Chocobo / 7,454
http://xivsoul.com/world/Zodiark/mounts 3,353 Chocobo / 1,140

World wide it's 1,181,656 Company Chocobo & 605,323 Magitek Armor Mounts. (<- Makes me question wether the site is actualized at all and/or what's the current state of population? Rising?)

By the way, "EU" Servers are located in the same location as NA DataCenters... In Canada, so expect 70-150 ms latency. But most people here play on EU timezone though

About that so-called language barrier, at least half people I run into speak English. Well, those that do speak. That's only 30% of the playerbase at most.
