Re: Server Merges?

Bleh, on all day every day. The job range was 49, 57, 62. Was just curious.

Re: Server Merges?

A lot also depends on the time of day you are doing stuff. EU prime time is always a slow time...

Re: Server Merges?

Incidentally once I got to lvl 51+ there was only ever 12-14 people lfg. It's not really that odd.

Those levels are always like that, its where the newer players get stuck at G1 and kinda drag people at 52-53 to level with them, then there's the people stuck at 55 doing the same to people 57-58. Meanwhile tanks and refreshers just blow right through these levels with no trouble. I've played all three refreshers and two melee through these levels - COR, RNG and BRD breezed right through.

The holidays would make that situation all the more pronounced.

We recently had 4.5k on our server - which is the highest I have ever seen....

Re: Server Merges?

It's always like that after an update that effects jobs unless you're searching levels 73-75 then you might have problems finding people. Also I always hated trying to level around holidays since too many people were either away or had a lot of free time to play and scheduled something specific.

Re: Server Merges?

Also, what level are your jobs? I recall in the last census that jobs 40-65 were the fewest out of any level range. (I maybe be off on the precise range, but it was right around there.) Infact, there is something like 30 or 40% of the population with atleast one lvl 75 job. The number of jobs 70-75 lfp is huge compared to any other level. A lot of that has to do with meriting and not going any farther in level, yada yada yada, but it shows you if you have a job in that mid-upper level range, it is very tedious trying to find enough people for a party. Whenever I do /sea all I still get over 3k people virtually all of the time during the week, with a sizable increase on weekends.. Atleast on Fairy, server population at any given time has been pretty static for the last couple years.

It's just the holidays. People travelling, doing shopping, etc.

Things will get back to normal in a couple of weeks.

May be the holiday season but recently and still, I have noticed there is hardly anybody on the server. I am on Ragnarok^^. I have 3 jobs I flag for, each seperate levels, and when I go to search for members there is between 0-12 people on. That being within 1 level blow and above my job. Is anyone else experiencing this? Did that ban recently really have a major impact on our population(sadly)? Do you think SE should merge population of servers and or allow players and their friends to switch?
