EU and US stats sync

First thing I tested was if stats were synced between US and EU and they are not.. Is this something that is going to happen like what was done in M2. This is going to be a very grindy game to level up, I have people I play with on US and EU and no way I can take the time to grind out level-ups on both. If there are plans to sync it, great, but let me know after that's done cause from experience, we can assume one side or the others stats will be wiped.

There are no plans to sync the stats since shotbow typically separates everything by region and if the stats were shared one region would get worse latency to the database than the other, etc... Syncing is unlikely to happen because of this and also because there is already EU and US specific data

Really, on stats and levels? Look at M2, proficiencies and stats are in sync so you are not required to grind on both to level up. However inventory is not. Not entirely aware of the DB setup for proficiencies and stats in M2 but I would expect latency on statistical writes to the DB shouldn't be an issue regardless, doesn't effect game play ability I would expect as it is an after action write?

I would note that M2 has the same delima your facing here, they did not do this sync until a month after release realiing it should count on both regions and there are a number of dual region players. Meaning that EU stats got wiped when they did it. They noted it was an error in the process but I always figured when going to a single stats repository it was kinda more expected and an error.
