Hi. I'm not new to RPing, but I'm looking for which server I should transfer to that I'm likely to find RP? I'm looking for something of a fresh start after my old FC's leader tossed all the active players out. Still not sure why, but I do like roleplay and I do want to break into having some fun again in FFXIV. My current focus has been some PvP to get the cool Garo outfits, but I'm willing to help out when I have the time and do what I can to help out an FC when I have the gil to spare for it.

I've been mainly playing a DPS, but I'm looking for people that might be willing to teach me to tank as well.

Otherwise, I'm looking to mainly get into the RP. I love the storyline and would love to incorporate a bit of it in such as the forthcoming move to the eastern areas of the game. I hope there's a place for me on Balmung or Gilgamesh, and I hope that someone can point me at which ones are pretty active or not? Thanks.

If you're already willing to transfer I say 100% go to Balmung. I did it and have no regrets. If anything I wish I made a whole roster of characters to transfer over. (Mainly didn't since I was new to RP and unsure how much I'd like it but in hindsight I should've done it anyway).

There are many many public events and people on Balmung willing to RP as I'm sure many of the people here will tell you. If you have any questions or need an RP partner feel free to pm me.

Thanks for the advice. I transfered to Balmung. Now to flesh out my character's stories and see how that works out.
Hello and welcome!

Yeah Balmung's a pretty popular place for rp so kudos for getting in!

By the way, if you're interested, you can check out the Free Company forum if you're interested. You don't have to do it now if you rather take a break from FC first. It's simply there at your discretion!

Teaching you in the ways of tanking....... Hmmm...

Aside from the Novice Network ingame, you can try checking out here too for game related stuff. I'm sure there should be a page or two in the art of tanking. Heads up, the game also features a unique duty cater towards your role (Tank, dps, healing) so you can check that out for some more basics too.

And for lore stuff, maybe see if the Lore Discussion forums will help put you in the right direction, as well as the RP Discussion forums too.

May the path you choose be filled with the light of the crystal!
Hey there, and welcome aboard to the RPC and to Balmung! Thumbsup

Once you've got your character carved out, you can toss up a Making Connections post here on the RPC to get some links to other characters right away. The community here is fairly large- there's a lot out there to explore and a lot of niches you can shoot for. There's everything from knowledge hunters, to treasure seekers, clans, and even the mob. It all depends on what you like the cut of the most!
