So its been a week and some days since the merger. How has it been for the player base? I've seen only a few issues arise from the merger mainly about Dynamis.
Mainly for me its when I'm on RDM or BLM I get asked for teleports or retrace via whispers but other then that not a lot of a change.
Impressions From The Merger

I... get parties a lot faster?
Also when someone shouts for a tele or retrace they get one in a matter of seconds rather than minutes.

Campaign battles are insanely short now... most end just as you arrive, and some have crashed my poor old PS2. D:

Oh common you guys. Idiotic convos are the highlight of whitegate activity! It's fun to read all the weird stuff people are thinking. Look at it a different way instead of quickly dismissing it as stupid. Instead of giving people the pleasure of letting them now it bothers you, (which 99% of the time it's what they want) just laugh it up! Remember that online interactions are not rated by the ESRB! lulz
i <3 my new server family!

Did you know Tudds is awesome?
i love Tudds! The tells in WG were a little overwhelming for the first few days, but we had to expect that with everyone trying to find their friends. Now I'm just happy. So many more ppl to play with!
Impressions from the merger -
Hell yeah... went from an average of 2-3.5k XP to freeken 500-600 XP >.<

Same as Hades I guess. I prefer to play PS3 then campaign for exp... so I LFP for about 5 hours yesterday on THF69 :)
Still managed to get a few shinys but the drop rate in Dynamis got worse once on Cerb. Only 1 Dynamis taken that we planned for which was Tavnazia.
I haven't really had any conversations with Cerby people since the 1 Merit pt I went to was either someone I knew from Hades or JP. I had positive feedback about both of my mules name changes (Baggedmilk and Concatenator).

Downsides have already been mentioned. Upsides are that we've welcomed a large number of Hades folks into TT this application round and they are just lovely.

Is bastok still being taken over? XD
I will say this server has some of the worst/weird job combinations i've seen yet. To top it off it also seems dunes are even worse here also.
Hate this gimp *** server, the HNMLS here need to team up with other linkshells to kill faf/nid and it still takes 50 mins, like 2005 all over again ><
Has there been any problems with Dynamis scheduling on the merged servers?

*** the server merger! Yeah there's more people but now the *** prices are dropping on EVERYTHING... not just ***that's being replaced by new armors... EVERYTHING!!!
Don't mind me.
Just passing through.

A cerb folk saw my RDM sporting a club/boob shield and proceeded by sending me a tell saying "Omg nice shield! /drool :Q___ I've never seen it before". Do Cerbians not do sky or something and have never seen one XD I don't think he was a noob either cuz I was in the past and he was on a higher lvl job.
There's lots of competition while lfp for merit parties now. Kinda annoying that i have to make most if not all of the merit parties nowadays. A lot of 75s have gracefully accpted to sync to any of my parties i've made tho ^^; so i'm happy about that.
I agree on the prices. They are dropping horribly but then again it was to be expected with more ppl comin together.

I think SE should have thought about can the servers handle the amount of ppl before they merged it and then when all the people complain of lag out when zone into whitegate or juneo then they do a message please move out of these areas. I mean wtf if their servers cant handle the stress should have never did it. I can see it in busy zones but I get around 1500+ in most of the zones and lag is really bad for me but other than that im still gimp and sipping on some gin and juice.

That shield was one of the first things I got for my RDM like... 5+ years ago from sky. Now it sits in my mog house collecting dust. Most people aren't sporting them unless they are meleeing their RDM or WHM or what-not, so either the person was a n00b or the person totally hasn't been in the sky scene. ;) Or some combination of the above!! LOL! :)
My LS doesn't do a lot of sky anymore, but I am pretty sure most LS's still do the sky thing.
I'll be glad if I never see sky again really hate that stuff
<3 the new server~ alot of really chill people.
Well there are some good people of course. Haven't really met many. It seems like, now that everything has died down, the people from the original server are getting an attitude and being all pissed.
I have never had so many instances where people come and camp on top of you and then act like a total *** saying too bad, *** off.

I don't play this game sober so I can't really tell the difference between pre-merger and post-merger.
The colors are pretty cool though.
