Cool, I'll be playing my Limsa Character tonight when I get home, so I'll keep my eye out! ^_^

I have applied my character to be sent to Balmung. Just have to wait and see I guess, hopefully I'll be able to get in.

I've just completed both mine and Korynth's application for transfer to Balmung. A bit late to the party, I know, but at least it's not locked out yet.

Have a screenshot, or three.

How amusing you took that screenshot…

What the hell are those helmets?

This beta weekend made me nervous for launch. Not sure if I'm going to want to play on a legacy server just because of the complete lack of people in low level areas. Seriously last weekend was awesome, groups of 15 people roaming from fate to fate, had a group of 5 questing together. This weekend, didn't run into but one other person in all of lower and middle La Noscea

The chocobo helmets were awarded in 1.0 for completing enough chocobo caravans to have delivered 1,000 supplies. Each chocobo caravan delivered a maximum of 9 supplies, and occurred every 30 minutes. I imagine they'll bring them back in 2.0 for doing something similar.

The amount of low-level people will undoubtedly be lower on a legacy server than a new one. I can't speak for other people, but I'll probably be playing DoW/M jobs on a new character though. I took one look at all my lv50 skills on a few of my jobs and was just like… I should probably get acquainted with this job the normal way…

Obsy, Kory, and I have been mostly playing our new beta chars on Ultros rather than putzing around on Ridill for the same reason that you mentioned; nobody is playing lowbies right now.

Not a bad idea on those DoW/M classes… I'll have to ponder on that

I'll most likely be starting as an Arcanist with the release, still on Togi on Balmung. That'll take care of my learning curve, initially. Then I'll have to ease myself back into CON and THM.

New players CAN create new characters on Legacy servers, though, right? It's just we can't move to other servers yet.

Kreitz and I were on Ridill a bit on Saturday night and just walked around. There are so many beautiful vistas in this game.

Note that since you're not legacy, you'll be paying extra to have more than one character (though if you pay in 180-day increments, the price is the same).

@Togi
New characters can be created on any server, including legacy servers.
Characters created during 1.0 can only transfer between legacy servers (until some TBA point in the future).

Yep, I had intended to go the Standard route from day one anyway. It's two more bucks. /shrug
