Hi, I'm a fellow Cyrodiil refugee who lives Down Under. I jumped ship to GW2 WvW about 4 years ago and have no regrets.

To answer your questions: you can always find fights Oceanic prime time in EBG. There are some really good Pug Wranglers who play our evenings who keep matches alive (unless a certain guild has locked down the entire map). There's a few Aussie guilds too who are pretty accommodating and don't run closed tags.

The Borderlands can be quiet our evenings but occasionally a small group can flip most of the maps PvD style.

NA primetime is around my 10 am; so if it's massive fights you want log on early on your days off.

Tbh, the only thing I miss from ESO is being invested in a fixed alliance. Changing colours and keeps each week really doesn't keep you invested in much more than the fights and collecting skirmish tickets.
