The only reason I ask about them making characters on Chaos is due to the fact that they will be able to play when I'm asleep due to the time difference and I don't want to hold them back by making a new character on an American data centre and falling behind in both the story and levels. Whereas if they make characters on Chaos I can assist them on my main and it doesn't matter if they play without me as I can just hop on and help them whenever we are all online together.
You have to test yourself.
It depends from how your ISP decide to route your data.
Long time ago, when servers were on east it was acceptable.
Now it's possible that the data are sent from UK -> Netherlands -> Brazil -> USA or something like that.
