So I just got into the beta yesterday. Made a character on Balmung and is on the hunt for some nice rp. So two questions -Â

* I'm not really following the talk about legacy, I haven't played the earlier installment off ffxiv. I read somewhere that balmung was closed to new players, but I made a character yesterday without problems. Should I be concerned for some reason?Â

* Which would be the best place to go to to find rp:ersÂ Is there a good spot to start or are there guilds (or are thats whats called Linkshells?) that I should join? I'm playing a lalafell.

Thanks!

1. Character creation restrictions were eased on legacy worlds as of the start of this testing period: http://na.beta.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodes...ba2a57a68e

2. Most of us seem to be on Gilgamesh for phase 3, but everyone will switch to their "real" servers (Balmung or the TBD non-legacy server, which will be voted on soon) at the start of phase 4, which is when data will start carrying over to release unless something goes wrong.

To research linkshells, check out the Linkshell Hall forum. Cactuar

Linkshells are more like groups that share a chat channel together, to pursue the same RP story/idea.

Free Companies are the more traditional guild structure. You can join multiple shells, but only one company.

Ah I see, thanks. So to find rp, I just join interesting linkshells and see where that takes me? Or are there places in the world where rp:ers tend to hang out, like a Hydaelyn alternative to lotros Prancing pony?

Would you say that, at this time, the rp-community at Gilgamesh is bigger than Balmung? I could easily remake my char for that server at this early point.

At this time, it's kind of unimportant, since we only get to play on weekends... Phase 4 will set the standards, I guess.
Also, there's a vote tomorrow for secondary RP server.

Oh I didn't understand that it's only on weekends...noticed this morning...Â
