Register your guild's server choice (and language) here

[Ehn]

Edit: go here if you just wan to know which server speaks which language.

There’s a community spreadsheet making the rounds on the various unofficial discords. (The sheet is not mine, so I cannot answer any specific questions, sorry) a LOT of guilds are registering there to see which server speaks what and how the population is divided.

Lost Ark Guild / Community Directory - Google Drive

On the upper left there’s a link to a google form that feeds back into the sheet. You can use it to add your guild to the list.
It requires to link a discord server and the personal discord ID of the guildmaster, so take into account you could be PM-ed by 1337 people during launch.
(read-only html view of the sheet here if it crashes for too much users)

Compressed view of the above gsheet here. Alternative link if it crashes here.
Another great view with weighted points for huge/medium/small guilds here.

Official take on the abovementioned abovementioned here:

Regarding Language-Preferred Servers

At this time, we will not be adding preferred language tags to servers for Lost Ark’s launch next week. We do understand player concern about finding and playing with language-based communities, so with tags being unavailable in game, we want to promote and point to the work that players have already done to start organizing across servers. [image] There is also a Guild/Community Directory available here and an EU Server Data sheet available here, both of which are solid resources to explore…

Please note that Kadan is the EU PvP server, so it’s the most “international”, that’s why so many guilds are going there.

Streamer’s server, what I have been able to gather so far:

EU:

Creator	Server	Notes
Sywo	Kadan
Lin-0	Kadan
Wilky	Zinnervale
Neeko2lo	No Specified Server	Might be on Zinnervale too

NA:

Content Creator	Server	Notes
Saintone	NA West Mari	(maybe EU Kadan too)
Asmongold	Undecided as of last twitch stream
Koleverii	NA East Regulus
Stoopzz	NA East Azena
Laufie	NA East Azena/Una	Uncertain AFAIK
SONII	NA West Valtan
DatModz	NA East No Specified Server
NotGrenton	NA East No Specified Server

What’s cross-server and what’s not?

Cross Server (i.e: the whole Region)
Raids, Dungeons, Cube, Boss Rush, Platinum Fields, Auction house, Character name uniqueness, PvP arenas, Ranked PvP

Server Specific
Guilds, Friend list, Open world (includes island co-op quests), GvG, Life skills (gathering), In-game elements (mounts, pets, Legacy level etc.)

Cross Server in Kr (no idea when we’ll get the patch, might be in at launch for all we know)
Strongholds (i.e.: visiting other people’s privat islands for the amenities), Unranked arena premades (i.e.: queue as a group)

Cross Region (i.e.: EU with NA)
Nothing that we know of

Thanks for posting this (I had already seen it on reddit, but happy to see it going wider). As a guild leader trying to pick a server it’s hugely valuable.

[Ehn]

it’s honestly a very helpful effort, I did not find it posted, so here we are.
Btw, my thanks to whoever came up with it I’m trying to spread it around as much as possible

[Ehn]

There’s a recap divided for language here Lost Ark EU Server Data - Google Drive

BE AWARE that this is still based on a relatively small amount of hardcore guilds and unofficial discords

[Ehn]

over on reddit u/apretorii made an infographic based on said gsheet, reposting it here

[Deviant13]

No update on the google doc showing.

[Ehn]

You might have to wait a bit, if too many people access a gdrive doc it can get slow.

For support, please ask on Lost Ark unofficial discord

[Betsi]

@Ehn is this image yours?

[Ehn]

no, it’s from u/apretorii over on reddit.
they’re not extremely active over there, so it might have been a one-off effort

[Betsi]

Thank you very much for the clarification

[Cowen]

I would not focus on that sheet so much… we are not sure if this is not watched just by core fanbase… which could be 10% of total.
Channel where this was originally posted has something around 17k followers.

[Boomperson]

This list was actually posted by 5(!) big german PC-games sites, telling people that Asta will be the german server and Kadan PVP server.

so i can only speak of the German speaking countries, but the majority that have an interest in the game, know Asta is german.

[Cowen]

On behalf of how many players do you speak ?

[SebDeTyra]

So Kadan or Zinnervale for people who want to use English i take it? Also why is there a PvP hub if you can’t queue as a team in ranked?

[Ehn]

@SebDeTyra

Also why is there a PvP hub

Kadan is a “PvP hub” … this means you can do 3-man premade practice with like-minded people. And very competitive GvG when it’s available.
Ranked and 2-man premade practice (i.e.: with the third man as random) is across the whole region as you said.

[qubism]

For more PvP focused folks. There is also open world PvP and more modes coming in the near future that are PvP related.

[SebDeTyra]

Oh ok, Kadan it is for me then.

[Boomperson]

Like I said, 5 big and well known German pc gaming sites posted an article about the list.
How should I know how many players that could be?

Just saying, the info is out there, and in my personal opinion, any German player who Google Lost Ark in the last couple of days, and has an interest in the game, saw it.

[Jak]

Guess I won’t be playing PvP then cause there’s no way in hell I’m touching a Turkish server after what happened in NW.

Why can’t we put the PvP hub onto an unclaimed server?

[Ehn]

it’s not a turkish server. simply the (small number of tbh) turkish guilds are split 50/50 between kadan and trixion. there’s some turkish presence in slen too for that matter.
look at the data too, not just the infographic. as you can see here turk guilds are spread across all 3 servers.

edit:

@Jak

Why can’t we put the PvP hub onto an unclaimed server?

kadan was selected as a pvp server before the whole language thing. people flocked to it naturally
