Hello dear WOW players,
I'm Alberto, Italian expat living in Kuala Lumpur since august 2012. Thanks to your great LowYat mall I finally got a computer, and after all the relocation period and after setting up an internet connection with UNIFI (20 MB) I'm finally ready for some gaming. I'm actually playing Stacraft 2 and Path of Exile, but being an expat and being here alone I was thinking of coming back to WOW for a while, just to give it a shot. I quitted 3 years ago after a non stop period since WOW vanilla day1. I assume the game has changed alot and I'm more that curious about all the new stuff that Blizzard introduced.
Long story short, I have to drop couple of questions about the game client and the latency.
I have the EU client and all my characters are in EU realms, so my first question is: will I be able to play in EU realms from Malaysia? Will the latency be horrible?
Second question is about local realms, I read someone was suggesting to play in Taiwan realms, is it actually a good choice?
Malaysian players have SEA realms or you play in US?
Is there any guild around that would accept a old vanilla raider with years of experience up to Wrath of the Lich King?
I've played Mage (main), Holy priest, Hunter, PVP rogue and Druid.

Thank you for your help!

So basically I'm foked.

Actually I play:

Starcraft 2 in EU in a decent way

Path of Exile is great because there is a login server in Singapore, but when a EU player enter my game I start lagging like hell

Diablo 3 is horrible, cannot play it

League of Legends it's ok, 300 ms, still playable.

I doubt I can enjoy WOW in that situation... thanks for answering tho
