Westcoast play times: Horus or English on Ra?

[mezira]

I'm taking a break from Warhammer Online and want to give this game a shot. I'm an old DAOC player so Regnum has my attention ever since I found it the other day.

I can deal with the spanish server Ra if there's english speakers for me to play with. I want to play an underdog realm, i.e. not tree hugger.

I'm a bit worried Horus will be slow at night during west coast times, can anyone comment on this? If there's small scale RvR that's fine, as long as it's not dead if like 1 clan isn't on.

If you're stuck between servers, you can always start a character on both and see which time-zones suit your liking.

As far as I know there are English clans in each realm on Ra, so you should be ok if you choose to play there.

Horus is pretty dead at late night on weekdays (~1am ish) or at least when I'm on at those times. Save for night invasions of course ^^. On weekends though the war is plenty.

If you want to join the Underdog realm, Horus Alsius is your choice, bud.


Welcome to Regnum, enjoy your stay ^^
If you want more info you can check out the wiki at http://regnum.wikia.com/wiki/Regnum_Online_Wiki.

(psst, join Horus Alsius. )

On horus, Ignis is most active during your time zone, and very similar in population to alsius.

join ignis ra
I will add you to my guild and show you the ropes (power level)

Ignis has many active West Coast players from the states. In Syrtis we have a lot of Europeans, but generally more Eastern European players. Alsius is generally more spread out, but only peaks around late East Coast time/Early Central European time imo.

Don't waste your time with Ra. The only English players remaining there are the high horse elitists. Horus is perfectly fine, and arguably more enjoyable/playable for things like invasions and fort wars.

Don't take my word for it though, log in here and there and find whatever suits you.

I play RA (and horus) and I am NOT elitist. Nor is anyone in the clan I am in.

I think you are generalizing too much.
You might think I am a high horse elitist (although I do play on Horus too), but what about those people that never set their foot in these forums, who you don't know and who plays on Ra because they prefer it?
And what about those who plays on both Ra and Horus?

If I were to give the op a non-biased view on the both servers, it would be the following:

Horus

Strengths:

• A lot of well-organized fights
• Nice community
• Easy to grind
• Easy to make yourself a name and gain good items

Weaknesses:

• Not much spontaneous action

Ra

Strengths:

• Much more spontaneous instant-action
• Nice community

Weaknesses:

• Spanish is the official language
• Hard to grind

For me, the availability of spontaneous and instant action is worth more than anything else.
That's why I am personally stuck on Ra.

I cannot speak for the timezones, but most members of Valhalla are online in the evenings, European timezone.
I don't know what time this is where you live.

Good luck whatever choice you make, and you are always welcome to chat me if you decide to come to Ra/Alsius

Syrtis / RA

We have some nice clans on this side, speaking a mixture of English, German, French and Spanish DoL, FWS, TIL, NBK, Syr-t...

I have not much to add to Znurres comments. "On Horus you are a king, on Ra you are never alone."

Maybe the small organize group of old players in ignis can say 1gnis>2 of other realms. This most ignis players that i see playing now a days plays as much as syrtians so, 1 alsian>2 of them.
