Stormflower Posted July 6, 2014 Share #1 Posted July 6, 2014 Hi there! So, I'm a... pretty much new player. I played just long enough to get to 50, about 7-8 months ago, and then stopped. I'm totally lost, but the one thing I do know is I definitely want to move to an RP server. Ideally, I'd like to go to one with a decent casual raiding scene on the side - Which of the two would you guys recommend, and are there any major differences in the RP styles of Balmung and Gilgamesh?

TheLastCandle Posted July 6, 2014 Share #2 Posted July 6, 2014 Both servers have a lot to offer. My understanding from the Gilgamesh folks is that RP tends to be more "focused" and that open RP is less prolific - but there are groups actively trying to change that. The best advice I can give is to have a look at the Linkshells page; maybe there's an FC or LS that interests you. Failing that, maybe roll a character on both, see if you can't get a feel for either server that way. Best of luck either way. Link to comment
Tiergan Posted July 6, 2014 Share #3 Posted July 6, 2014 I second LastCandle's recommendation of rolling up some lowbie alts on both and running about. It's sort of hard of any of us to say what the RP is like one each server as all of us are in one or the other and will tell you how spiffin' our respective servers are. Welcome to the RP community either way! Link to comment
Stormflower Posted July 6, 2014 Author Share #4 Posted July 6, 2014 Ah, thanks for the warm welcome! ... Though, the problem in doing scouting of my own is that character restriction on both servers seems to be constantly restricted. >< I've been told that doesn't apply to transfers, which is why I was trying to make an educated decision before spending my money. I suppose I'll just have to wait for the restriction to lift. Link to comment
Kage Posted July 6, 2014 Share #5 Posted July 6, 2014 Character creation is just all about when you are able to get on. In my experience, you can check the lodestone, Balmung and Gilgamesh are typically open in the very early mornings so 4am and 8am PDT. Link to comment
