Since I'm in NA, that means less latency and more players online around my time zone when I play. There is also EU dedicated servers and JP dedicated servers for players around that time zone. It also helps lowers latency if you pick a server closer to your home. I hope this helps.

Ok, maybe I'll have to wait another day as Amazon screwed up my order.

I'll probably go for a dedicated EU server.

I'm on Lich.

pick a class that gets your atention more, you can always change your mind later. i love how u can master all the classes in this game if you want to

grinding fates is boring but it can also be a great way to lvl up, if you're lvl 28 you might wanna grind the fates at camp dragonhead in coerthas or the south shroud.
after you reach a certain rank within the grand company you can exchange the gear you get from dungeons (loot) for company points. but that takes a while to get there

I'd join you on Lich, but apparently it's very under-populated.

I guess only the starting area matters, so I'll pick Ul'dah again.

Some people are confused about this, so for those wondering what this is. (below)

Nope, its not a tower. Its a Dragon Midgardsormr, and the battleship Agrius. This cgi video will explain everything.

Turns out I could already use my pre-existing Beta character. So now I'm a Gladiator on the Ceberus server.

Teleported into town, first thing I see is this..Don't know what to say about this.

More details on the hunt system.

Final Fantasy XIV letter from Producer Naoki Yoshida, Takes the time to talk in a little more depth about the Hunt system, and Elite Marks

In a nutshell, its like Final Fantasy XII bounty hunts, and Monster Hunter. By the way, he said some of these elites bounties is impossible to solo, and it'll be best to shout for help when you find them in the wild.

Patch 2.3 coming out tomorrow!

Really looking forward to 2.3 tonight when I get in from work. Mostly I'm looking forward to the next floor of the crystal tower :)

I've got to say though I've been getting frustrated lately at this, I've been trying to beat Garuda extreme for nearly two weeks now but keep failing due to impatient rage quitters quitting after a couple of wipes. It's really starting to get stupid now as I'm unable to progress in the game due to this problem that has nothing to do with me. I've tryed PF aswell but that didn't seem any better even when it stated "no quitters, fight till we beat her".

i did that with the help of a couple of FC members and some friends of one of them and it went pretty smoothly since our tank explained the strategy very well. also we were on Vent so i could hear his instructions
