The main question for you is: do you plan to spend 500+$ per month? Then you can start in a very old server and catch up in 8-9 months. Do you not plan to spend that much? Then absolutely start in the newest server possible and get full advantage of the first two months because this is not a game where you can catch up to a 5-6 months old free to play wise player without cashing at least 1000$.
