What's the main difference between the goon guilds? I see on ffgoons it recommends new players join Third Party Tools. Does it matter, much?

I'm looking forward to the cross-server party finder in 3.3. I am unable for reasons to leave my current server for Excalibur, but with the PF the Goon guilds from all the various servers can do stuff together.

Really, I love your character's whole look.  someone appreciates the absurd amounts of time and money I put into glamourThe pants are the Wind Silk Bottoms, they can be...pricey, but the best way to get them is (if you are a level 60 gatherer) getting steel spoils from the diadem and trading them in for the wind silk. If you're on Excalibur I'm sure goons can help you out with that, I'm just not on that server. The rest of the outfit is very cheap: the top is the generic male miqo'te top you start with, and the shoes are the best man's gaiters. Very few dyes cost much of anything (except pure white and black) so that shouldn't be a wallet issue; everything in this outfit is either currant purple or gloom purple, since the hat is not dyeable and I wanted it all to match. e: The one thing I miss about being a highlander is the muscle slider. I don't miss being a dragonboy at all. I looked like weird lanky sad Nobunaga and it was a terrible time in my character's fashion life. Cats 4 life.

I used to be on dgkk but moved to tpt under the impression I could help more new people, and honestly it feels kind of dead. Dgkk was constantly chatty, but in tpt there's only maybe a dozen people who seem to ever be on fc chat

I have had pretty much nothing but pleasant experiences in either though. I have no comment on DGKK since I haven't been in it.

I'm usually in DF though and I've been tanking lately, so I find it hard to break away and chat about whatever.

I moved to TPT and haven't had any issues with chat. At least on the weekends when I primarily get to play everyone seems pretty chatty. Also I've never been to one of these FFXIV nerd fests. How does it generally work? It looks like entry goes on sale the day before it starts? (the 14th of October)

Maybe my problem is that I typically play really early in the morning on weekdays because I work nights.

(the 14th of October) Tickets for the NA fanfest went on sale in July iirc, so I'm expecting something similar for this year. It also sold out ridiculously fast / broke their system because they didn't anticipate the high interest level. After they fixed everything it went on sale again a few days (a week?) later.

Thanks for the info. Yea I looked up some info from the 2014 one and it looks like they did go on sale around July for about 120 bucks. Hopefully their servers are able to handle the load so I can snag one.

You could just not be a mentor until SE realizes that such programs in other MMOs have oversight for a reason? The current system just looks awful and frustrating.

Playing on Balmung, 99% of new people are alts, and I love force inviting them to the Novice Network just to have them complain that they can't leave. It's hilarious.

While we were looking for small plots to buy, a stranger approached us and told us he had a small plot he no longer used and didn't need to be paid back for, so we gladly accepted. We were expecting it to be in the rear end-end of one of the subdivisions, but it turned out to be one of the nicest spots in the game.

If we do get into Excalibur, can we expect long a queue to get into the server during peak hours or is it generally pretty sane?

There is almost never a queue and even when there is canceling then logging in with your character again is enough to skip it. I don't know why but I think it keeps your place in the queue and just forces the client to check on its position in the queue again, otherwise you wait 30s for it to log you in. You're more likely to have server issues than any sort of queue.
