What Is The Best Server?

What is the best server to move and migrate to other than Asura, Odin, and Bahamut?

Not Lakshmi. Please, stay away.

Why? You don't even know me or you just trolling?

That depends, what exactly do you mean by, "best"?

phoenix or shiva

Hades

Bahamut

Balmung!

Sorry, I meant the best server for population. Maybe a server with some mercs. I realize there's no "best" server but one that has the most people in it so I can join a linkshell and do events.

If you can find a group before moving, it doesn't really matter which. And if I am to be biased, I would say Cerberus.

Clearly Odin.

asura server

None of the servers that are currently available have mercs, AFAIK. I can say for sure that Carbuncle doesn't have any (thank ***)


Any of the smaller servers have linkshells and you can do events with people. Thus: you don't need mercs.

I've long been an advocate for Carbuncle. We don't have mercs and hardly any RMT, which I consider a benefit and not a downside. You do need to talk to people and make friends to do content which is challenging to some people, but I also think it's a good thing, because it's a fun way to play MMOs so don't really see that as a bad thing either.

Anyway...if this person or anyone else who's deciding on a server wants to know, that's my $0.02. If you end up on Carbuncle, I've got a linkpearl for ya. There are a couple of fledgling groups that are working on endgame content you can join (right now), we regularly do all the Dynamis runs, and you can get plenty of help with things like Omen, Vagary, etc.

I played a trial character for a week on Siren earlier this year while teaching a friend the ropes. It's crazy how much less laggy the game is when you aren't on Asura. No idea if Baha/Odin are as miserably laggy as Asura is, but god damn was the game so much smoother outside of Asura.

I moved to Quetz from Asura a few months ago.

On Asura I used to blist bot shouters. Then I learned the blist caps at 300, so I found a lua to remove the shouts from specific people. That was such a pain to maintain I rewrote it to look for specific patterns. Even that needed frequent maintenance.

On Quetz my blist is *1* long.
