People Of Asura - Time To Switch Servers.

Closing asura should've happened a long time ago.

but it would be really *** stupid to do that. So much money from server jumps to and from.

You will first have to go to titan before you apply for asylum on asura.
Also you will need to learn the constitution of the United Dhamels.

A fix for low population on other servers and crowding on asura would be to link every servers AH. Population size on other servers wouldnt matter because they get the same access to crafters/ mat suppliers as someone on those servers has and people fed up with long lines on more popular servers could go to lower population servers instead of queuing up for half an hour.

The asura memes are seemingly taken a little too literally by some people who might think low population servers dont have quality players on them. Its not like asurans are doing things other servers arent, every server has people clearing all the end game content and VD ambus etc.

I wish, titan was great. It's been deactivated for about 10 years now.

Is the RMT spam really as bad as it looks in the FFXIAH shout box right now for Asura? Or is this outside the norm? When did it start? Dont remember this when I last played late last year.

Yes and no, the GW plugin replicates a lot of the shouts, so when you see up to six in a row, they're mistakes. but yes, they shout quite often... excessively often.

So much so, that someone finally made an add-on to block that ***.

It's bad but I've actually trained my eyes to completely ignore them when they pop up. I don't even notice it anymore but for anyone coming from a dead server, you'll be bombarded with merc shouts for the entire time you're in town. You're better off blocking yell if you're not interested in pug activities

i like this idea kinda works for ffxi

Linked AH would solve basically all population issues. And cost Square hundreds of thousands of dollars.

You all stop jumping to and from asura to make sales and they'll do it. Not a second before.

Who'd want to leave Asura and miss out on these prime shouts?

it's 100% auction house. People are a sympton, inabilty to buy literally anything anywhere that isn't asura is the problem.

Fix the house, the people will spread out

yea its being able to buy whatever whenever. Every month I see a person say they are going on a shopping trip, send mule with gil over, send mule back.

If one person a month goes shopping for 14 servers (no asura, no odin), that is 18x2x14 = 504 a month just from shoppers. This of course assumes the mule was already active and not just around for transfer.

The math here is wrong, it's one transfer to send a mule with money to every server, then one transfer to send them all back.

but multiple people do it, so $500 a month is probably accurate as a whole, not per person.

Wait, you can have 1 content ID with 18 chars, pay for world transfer, take them each to a designated server and pay for another transfer to bring them all back to the original server?

Were you dumb enough to accidentally be paying them hundreds of dollars per month to jump ***around lul?

I've only done it once when I came to Asura from Ragnarok in 2017, but that's good to know for the future. Thank you! :)

Oh i did math wrong? no surprise there but yes i meant as a whole not per person. I don't know anyone that would send their mule to quetz for shopping, you always go to asura or odin to buy. The x14 was one person from every server not one mule to each server

So its 18 to go there and back as one payment, not 18 to go and 18 to come back? interesting, never actually looked at it

18 to move once, any number of Characters.

Smart people put a few hundred mil on 17 mules, jump each one to each server, buy all the cheap ***, sell all the expensive ***. (you need to make 100m to make it worth spending $40)

Then 18 to come back, and redo it.

So $36 round trip to send 1 character to every server and back.

The middle ground exists, but then whenever people try to mention alternative options immediately the threads were filled with Asurans screaming "no your server suck because....(start to tell their life stories)" kind of comment. Or accuse posters for spreading lies.

But whatever. Like Shozo said. If your LS clear the hardest things people will come. Over the year I've seen people from small server and Asura came. Or people who leave for Asura then came back. Serious Endgame Player naturally aim for efficient groups which can be rare these days. For those who doesn't care they can stay.

As far as universal AH. They can be convenient. I doubt it's THAT attractive to Asurans...Unless they are crafters. For most endgame people they probably will stick with their groups or friends that they do endgame with.

If more people on small server could advertise their LS accomplishments like Shozo did, then more serious Endgame Player will come to small server to join groups and that would fix some of the issues. IMO that's the best way to make population balanced.

If anyone says they're on asura for any reason other than AH one of two things.

They're legit HELP I AM TRAPPED IN 2006 PLEASE SEND A TIME MACHINE, no ***, they like stupid *** drama yells and dipshittery.

Or they're there because "this person is there", and if you ask "that person" why they're there, you'll either get "AH" "HELP I AM TRAPPED IN 2006 PLEASE SEND A TIME MACHINE" or "this person is here" And you follow the chain until you hit "AH" or "HELP I AM TRAPPED IN 2006 PLEASE SEND A TIME MACHINE" this covers the entirety of the population.

(not willing to waste another $18 to server transfer is also a valid answer*)((mercing counts as "this person is here"))

For the slow folks... Everyone is here because of the AH, or they're linked to someone here because of the AH.

Seems like code for "I don't know how to make friends or communicate outside of /yell"

Outing and mocking the nazis is the only reason i log in anymore.

Does Asura have alot of botters/RMT? yes
Does Asura have alot of stupid people who pollute the yells? - yes

Asura also has a fairly decent amount of activity going on if you know how to find it.

Not everything on the server is negative and if you feel that way why even play the game?

If having a full alliance made up of your own characters is what you do everything with and your wallet can afford that then by all means hop servers and take your alliance with you. You don't have to be on Asura to run your own characters around.

hm yes where do I put in my application to join a server that has a robust population of 200 people? Inject that ***directly into my veins.

It would take no more than the same programming it took to make them all linked to Jeuno's AHs. Likely you can basically do what they did to make augments sendable on same accounts; just on a larger scale.

The downside though would be Asura price jacking. Though there's the possibility of getting Asura's ridiculous prices in check... There would be crazy market shenanigans for months.

Unless theres spaghetti. Lots of spaghetti

Spread the AH, spread the people. That's literally what I just said.
