PSA: If you are waiting to transfer to Omega and join Please Calm Down, we'll be signing up people at the Aftcastle in Limsa Lominsa. You DO still need to get authorised through the Discord channel, so make sure you include your code in the app!

*Added Jun. 16, 2017 12:30 GMT) / 13:30 (BST) Because we are currently experiencing an issue with the Duty Finder, the re-opening of the World transfer service has been postponed. We will inform you as soon as the opening date has been determined.

Sadly this means that there's going to be a delay in creating Please Calm Down.

I'm excited to try out Samurai but I don't have any level 50 melee gear, nor do I have a pile of Poetics to get it with, so it'll have to wait at least until I reach Heavensward and can buy some.

I can't see it winning out over Red Mage for me, because RDM feels amazing and I've only played it for a half hour, but Samurai does seem pretty sweet and those slash sound effects are perfect.

You get a free set of gear when you unlock both Samurai and Red Mage.

The good news is that given the amount of people who have already attempted to join Please Calm Down, we're likely to have a pretty healthy population.

This is the new PCD tag because some other group was using <Chill> and we didn't want confusion. Also we know that finding us is tricky with no house to go to, so if you can't see anyone with the tag, send one of us a message in discord and we'll try to meet up with you so you can join.

Yeah, but this is like bragging about rent being cheaper in bumfuck nowhere. Sure, you live cheap, but the rest of us get to be in a real place.

If it weren't for the fact that the Chaos data centre is the most densely populated of all of them you'd be right.

Incidentally, any concerns about Omega becoming the European Balmung seem to be unfounded. I think i saw an RP, once, but i saw it more often on Excalibur than I have here.

My favorite shitters are the ones that, when the first month in a 2 mob pull unlocks the passage gate, go and plant themselves at the gate and refuse to assist on the 2nd mob.

I've wiped because we had a healer do this exact thing. Hit a summoning trap while also dealing with the wandering enemies, couldn't handle them all without heals and died. Not once did they move until the enemies came for them, and by then it was too late.

LITERALLY MY FETISH posted:

Summoning traps (and all traps in general) only happen in the proper rooms, so you were fighting wandering enemies while in a room where you hadn't already popped the trap or seen where it is instead of in the hallway. That's not the healer's fault, and if it was a dps you probably still would have died. You can solo potd up to 100, given enough effort and planning, so a single person sitting quietly in the corner, or even yelling at you for pulling more, cannot make you wipe. They can be a dick, for sure, but not wipe you.

No I'm pretty sure had the healer not run away and healed us instead of letting us deal we would have survived.

I agree with this in every way.

The establishing moment when I knew we were in for a good ride was early on when they take in Tataru on some bullshit charge and you march on in to clear her name via trial by combat. It helped establish that you weren't loving around and also it felt good to cut loose and beat up some priests.

e: also worth remembering that the lore reason DRK exists is to execute corrupt clergy and knights that are above the law

You should join a FC even if you don't play that much, because of the buffs + people to help you do stuff especially if you're a dps

Exactly this, you have nothing to lose and everything to gain by joining one of the FCs.

Any content you can queue for can be done cross-server as far as I know, so you can still play with goons. It'll just be slightly more of a hassle.

Only in the most technical sense really, realistically speaking you're only likely to get people to do things cross-server if it's raiding. Honestly, transferring to Omega would be the better option, even if you have to pay for it; for the free company bonuses, people willing to run stuff with you, feed your chocobo, give you fashion advice, etc. Please Calm Down is currently the #2 ranked FC on Omega so we're pretty active and healthy, with a fair few new players, and you'd be more than welcome!

Yeah of our 114 members, only a handful haven't logged in within the last week. Personally speaking it feels just as active as the other free companies - more so sometimes considering back in Excalibur we were on during sleepytime or worktime hours for the Americans.

I would assume omega would draw from mainline games it's actually appeared in so that's FFV, FFXI and FFXII (not including the FFI remake and FFIV: TAY)

FFXI content would be interesting, and FFXII would go hand in hand with Return to Ivalice and this having this expansion's legion be the XIIth.
