Hi everyone. Trying my 3rd MMO here. I played LotRO for several years (my first MMO), but grew tired of increasing server problems. I then tried SWToR for a bit, but the content was just too easy and the RP I found lacking (compared to LotRO's).
So now I'm trying my 3rd MMO. I've played quite a few of the Final Fantasy RPGs. My favorites being FF3 (SNES) and FF7 (PS1).

I was doing some reading and realized I wanted to get onto the servers of Balmung or Gilgamesh. I'm still using the free trial, so is there a server thats known for being pretty friendly other than those two that I can try out for a bit and then transfer to Balmung if I decide I want to play this game further?

Also, I'll be stepping outside my comfort zone here. I normally play melee tank/fighter classes. However, I believe for my time here (especially since you can eventually multiclass) I'll go ranged healer class.

So now I'm debating between Conjurer/White Mage or Arcanist/Scholar. I'm leaning towards conjurer/white mage since my character so far keeps shaping up to have the same theme even though I've re rolled several times (usually takes me a bit to get an exact look/name/theme just right. He's a Hyur, Highlander, and his deity is Nophica, The Matron. I'm thinking Conjurer would go better with a Highlander as the Midlanders it said are the more "book smart" of the two clans, and Conjurer's have a greater affinity to nature, hence choosing Nophica as his deity.

Any suggestions would be awesome! Looking forward to chatting and eventually RPing with everyone.

Hey, welcome! Hope you enjoy FFXIV! Big Grin
Sounds like you've got a solid concept, and being able to multiclass if you get bored is a fantastic little extra.

I'm a little biased toward SCH healing because it's my first class and I absolutely love it to pieces, but really both CNJ/WHM and ARC/SCH are a lot of fun. Healing in general is surprisingly fun in this game.

I played on Siren briefly before transferring to Balmung. I hear it's got a small RP contingent. Jenova, too. A great place to check are the FC and Linkshell halls for groups on other servers and see if one strikes your fancy.

Balmung -- Message any time! -- Usually online after 5-6pm PST weekdays and all day weekends
