Thinking About Changing Servers.....

Go to Ragnarok...

You can party and get banhammered with Ejin Caitsith.

Transferring over to Leviathan today :) Any chance I can snag a pearl?

If nothing else, you can likely find a pearl to https://www.ffxiah.com/linkshell/Leviathan/NewColorsOfTheWinds on a concierge (or ask someone). Basically just the big social shell on a small server.

After a month of thought I'm gonna stick it out for a bit and see what happens. Thnx for the helpful info and hilarious memes/etc.
If I do decide to jump ship its comforting to know I'll be getting into.

I originally came from Seraph and was auto merged to Bismark. I took a 10 year break and when I came back all my friends were gone.

I wanted to move to a populated server with the intention of having more pugs to play with and the stocked AH. After a short research, I was locked into Asura, where I've been the last 4 years.

I've made a lot of close friends and even invited them to come to my wedding. I've made a dramatic increase in my gearing progression and I'm glad I did it. I have learned a lot more regarding ffxi. Mind you, I'm a casual player and not a LEET player.

As with all things, a lot of good will come with a lot of bad. Just learn to ignore the bads.

One thing I can recommend, if you are going to a busier server and are planning to farm your ultimate weapon materials such as EMPY mat items, I recommend you do it in a slower server first before moving to a busier one.

PS. others have mentioned but clear out your AH and mailboxes before you decide on moving.

you do not loose items in your DBox - I change servers often and always get sent my stuff. Not sure how they do it.
