Fastest shard to play - Toronto Canada

[KennyAr]

May I know which is the fastest shard to play from Toronto Canada. May consider to move to another shard, but not Atl it's too crowded for me. I need at least a 18x18 to live comfortably.

I'm in Kitchener Ontario right by you and I play on great lakes and it's fast and not too crowded with a decent population... I'm sure there are 18x18 spots open if you look around a bit

Yep I'm in the central northern US and GLs is pretty fine... and has a decent population without being too crowded and you can always find a 18x18 here... maybe even a Keep spot if you get lucky... but not too often.

I'm a couple hours away from Toronto and play Great Lakes. Speed is fine and there's plenty of housing space.

I started a new char in Catskills. Quickly earned 100k with a quite good Major Artifact from an Irk, found a rare Tram spot which allows a stone keep and dropped a house on it. I considered myself lucky here, so I decided to stay in Catskills instead, it's fast enough for me.

Thanks guys.

try something completely new and join Siege Perilous.
no insurance, all felucca ruleset - it's the best shard in all of UO

Haha I always love the siege players rally cry "Come to Siege!" ... their cultish devotion to their beloved and mysterious home is akin to jehovah's witnesses, except more entertaining and actually welcome. And given all the recent tumultuous BS we're seeing on standard shards, tempting, if I'm being honest!!


- Edit - any of you seigers know off hand where the server is located regionally? It seems like a shard best played with a low latency.

East Coast

I ping around 120 ms from Germany and I'm doing fine.

Let me know if you need help or Siege specific advice.

It truly is the happiest place on Earth, like Disney Land, but with murder!

I think that I tried long long time ago. I barely remember whenever I went to Despise to start a new char I was killed by someone till I gave up.
I am not that good at pvp, so I guess it's not for me.

Take a look here:

Shard IP Addresses

All east coast shards are hosted by amazon webservices in Virginia. Among these shards listed you will have, by and large, the same ping, just take your pick.

There are a lot of players on Siege that aren't any good at PvP. You'll just have to develop skills and tactics to evade PvP if you don't want to fight.

Plenty of 18x18 to be had and some tower spots. Anything Keep or larger will be harder to come by. Decent population on GL.
