Do you have to play during peak hours to group?

Since the game is so group oriented, does that mean you have to be on during peak hours to find a group?  Or are there enough players at other points of the day to where it's not a problem.  I often play earlier in the day than most, but I don't want to be left with the short end of the stick having an impossible time finding groups...

    Only been playing a few days but I would say atm, No. I'm from the UK and I play on the US servers ( friends play it from the states and this is yet another game that segregates US/EU players which I think stinks. So you have to purchase a US CDKEY to play on US servers ) So I play at odd times for US side and there is always people on.

    still not tried it yet Brihtwulf?   image

    Since there is no soloing there will always be someone to group with. Unless your a rogue... rogues are the most popular class and since having more than one rogue in a aprty can lead into all sorts of trouble it can be hard to find a group.

    Mages would be in the same situation were it not for the fact that they are so few.

    I am always able to find a group or create one during the day on Thelanis server on EST. Relatively quickly too. At nights, there is just more groups to choose from.

    SOmetimes I find it difficult, sometimes it's easy.  Just depends on what you are looking for.  It gets easier everyday for me.  More people that play the easier to find a group.  But I find a group w/in 5 min 90% of the time.

    I have wierd work hours so the only time I get to play is usually around 6am to 8am. The only time I have a problem finding a group is when I play my rouge.

    I've never waited more then 10 minutes to get a group, and that's as a rogue or paladin and I've played early mornings and late evenings.

    I've never actually tried to form a group but at any one time there are dozens of player LFG but they don't seem to stay there long... the list changes constantly.

    Adar is a low population server.  Dang, I wonder what the high population servers are like then.  I'm on Adar and when I go in a tavern it's packed. 

    How do you tell which ones are high/low?

    I find it all depends. I have been on at peek times and have found no one to quest with. And there are times when there are hardly any one on and I get alot of requests to join parties. I guess it all depends on the players that are on if they are higher level then you or in a guild you are out of luck in most cases.  just my observations....
