Sometimes, I get inspired to do things. Absurd, fun, crazy things.
Case in point: I read a post by Dulfy on PvE server population and balance. She created two level 1 characters on each server and used the /who list to record the population numbers on six planets plus the fleet during prime time on each server (6:30-10:30 EST for East Coast servers and 6:30-10:30 PST for West Coast servers).
I just had to know what the data looked like for PvP servers.
Four hours later...
These charts replicate the server pop / balance data presented by Dulfy.
- PvP/RP-PvP server pop ranking by
- PvP/RP-PvP server Imperial::Republic Ratio
- PvP/RP-PvP server Ilum Ratio
- PvP/RP-PvP server pop ranking by planet
NOTE: to aid comparisons, I've added The Harbinger, a pve server.
In a follow-up post, I'll extend some of this analysis and comment on how reliable I think these numbers are.
PvP/RP-PvP server pop ranking
PvP/RP-PvP server pop ranking (East Coast)
Note: this chart includes information on additional planets I didn't use above (to match Dulfy's data)
(For the data - I ran page 'SWTOR pop' on Friday and 'sample 2' on Saturday. Several servers were re-sampled, and the numbers on the side are me getting the fleet sums correctly. I know documentation makes the data, so definitely ask if its confusing. Just ask.)
As always, let me know if I missed anything.
