Dimoxinil Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 Hi, Which server is the most populated? Jedi Covenant or The Shadowlands? I'm looking to transfer my chars from a west coast server to east coast and would like to know what's the better choice. Is http://www.torstatus.net/ reliable info? Last updates date from 2012 so just wondering... thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanNV Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 I can't speak to JC< but Shadowlands is definitely busy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NajeeSensei Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 The key difference between the two is that Jedi Covenant, as you could guess, has more Republic players on the server than Imperial and The Shadowlands has more Imperial players than Republic.

Vicen Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 I would certainly do shadowlands if you're going imp side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiredgutter Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 (edited) I would certainly do shadowlands if you're going imp side. This may sound crazy, but I started a whole new legacy on shadowlands with the 12x... No legacy unlocks, rich alts or anything. The only perks I have is Treek, a few crystals, and a few empty armor sets and weapons via collections. It's going great, I'm almost level 45 having spent almost no credits on anything. A nice person even donated a dye to me to complete my look on my character. My question is: was it a bad decision to roll guardian? The pubs seem so horrible in WZs so far, which is my main activity.

arunav Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 (edited) I play on the Shadowlands (everything but ranked PvP), and find groups for anything pretty much at any reasonable hour. It's a good server. Also, it seems like CM items go on the GTN at reasonable prices as well, compared to what I see posted about on other servers, which can be a nice perk when something is released you actually want. The community on it is also generally a good one. I run into very few jerks in group content. Edited November 27, 2014 by arunav Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For PvP, Imps dominate on Shadowlands at max level. I find it pretty even while leveling. The exception to this rule is early in the evenings, Pubs do well, and perhaps even win most of the time. Then it drops off, and you often only play other Imperial teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uhh... I'm on JC and I don't think that's the case. Good server and good balance between the factions (might even say more imps than rep). Where are you getting that? From the names?

TravelersWay Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 I actually have characters and guilds on both servers. They are both pretty well populated servers, though at any given time, JC seems to have a bit more, at least on certain planets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dimoxinil Posted November 27, 2014 Author Share Posted November 27, 2014 THanks for the replies everyone. The key difference between the two is that Jedi Covenant, as you could guess, has more Republic players on the server than Imperial and The Shadowlands has more Imperial players than Republic. I'd like to know what your source is for that. I think the server name is irrelevant with regards to predicting imp vs pub population. Is it personal experience? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks It may have played some part early on, but the server merges pretty much evened things out. Again, anecdotally speaking, I haven't noticed much difference between sides on either server.

Klintrin Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 (edited) lol @ people saying JC is dominated by Pubs Imp fleet usually has 4 instances on a good night Edited November 27, 2014 by Klintrin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSeventhJedi Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 My toons are exclusively on Shadowlands, and I've never had any complaints about population. I'm in a large guild, but certainly not the only large guild on the server. I play Imp and Pub no problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NogueiraA Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 Shadowlands PVE: At evening it's impossible to not find a group, all the time there's people LFM. About pugs, Republic players seems to be more skilled. PVP: Imps dominate, there's just a few good pvpers on the pub side. Every day there's guilds LFM.

Lunafox Posted November 28, 2014 Share Posted November 28, 2014 Shadowlands is an amazing server. I'm very happy there, and would recommend it to anyone. I play pretty much exclusively on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
