This ^^^^ I just moved from Famfrit for the same reasons, I appreciate all the help that I received from Famfrit but I need a server with more active community, Odin showed today and only 35-40 people where there, we got him to 90% T_T, after that I transferred over.

I xfered to Gilgamesh Sunday. Took 6 of my friends with me. No regrets. Hard to believe I played on Famfrit for 2 years. I feel like I'm playing FFXIV for the first time, finally!

I'm been debating for a couple of months to transfer servers but I honestly don't know which one to transfer to. I want one with a large population as well as an active economy. Any suggestions with reasoning?

Well a lot of people will say gilgamesh since it has the highest population. I transfered to Excalibur because it has a upper medium population and a good economy. I would say make a alt and check it out especially the market boards and party finders. Also the gaming culture on servers varies a lot and is worth checking out. If you are someone who waits to learn harder content later on, some servers may be easier to have learning parties and others may simply pass you by. It's a hard thing to tell someone where they should go.

May I ask, to what sever did did Y transfer?

Server isn't dead, you could see that from the amount of relic pf parties that popped up after 3.15. The problem is that the raiding community on this server is quite cliquey, so savage isn't accessible for pugs+people looking to start raiding.

Even the amount of people participating in relic fates is comparatively small, it's very infrequent for the pf list to have double digits , and it'll inevitably die off if previous relic steps are any indicator

I don't know if I 100% agree with this whole sentence but there are partial truths in here. The raid community on Famfrit is small and close knit. If people are looking to start raiding I'd look for the groups who are having success and reach out to them. Groups are raiding and more and more of them are starting to see success. Do a little digging see who is raiding and see if they can provide assistance or guidance.

Is this server dead? No
Are we a high pop server? No
Can you find success on Famfrit? Yes

How many people are on my server on Phoenix? Should I be looking to transfer?

I can't speak for Phoenix since I have never played on there. This thread is concerning the world Famfrit but if you feel as if you could have a better time on another server I suggest make a alt when you can on a another server and see how it is.

I have a alt on famfrit and unless someone has around 20 million gil or a crafting friend the crafted items will be a brick wall. On my server, HQ arrows are around 200,000 gil while they were 2 million each on Famfrit. That was 2 days ago.
