Laima. Other servers weren’t there if I recall. Even if they had been I would have still likely picked Laima because I would rather end up being a small fish in a big pond (or hopefully at least a medium to larger fish lol) than being a top player in a server without as much competition.
Although this may change in the future depending on how they handle PvP match-making. I haven’t looked into it yet but if they end up doing cross-server matches then it may be better later to pick a smaller server for the PvE aspects; more grinding spots, easier farms, easier to top-dog it with some fellow elitists, and carry that excess back into the cross-server PvP.
Seeing though as GvG is a thing and I will be focusing my builds first on PvP, and second on World Bosses, I would still likely pick the highest pop server again. More open world player hunting by the sounds of it
