There's the realistic, but not guaranteed, chance of 'heroes of light' using this status as a way to lord over those who were not present for a giant dragon kicking people around. Not only is this an annoying thing to consider, it's toxic.
-An easy dismissal to any such boasting would be that no one even remembers who the Warriors of Light actually were and, "I've heard better bard's tales!" Therefore this is a non-issue in my book

-It doesn't sound like opportunity is the right word here unless you mean "name recognition opportunity" within the server RP community. Opportunity to me means RP opportunities. RP opportunities I think are a direct relation to RP/Non-RP player ratio which Balmung comes out on top. But if you want to carve out your own name in a smaller RP community then, yes, Gilgamesh makes that an easier prospect due to less competition.Â
-So in the end it came down to where is most of the RP going to be happening? Balmung is what I came up with and I now feel comfortable in my choice.
I am a new player and had to weigh the situation too. These are my thoughts in response.
