Character Farewell Thread.

My character is parked in the inn, naked, with fantasia consumed. Ready to change at first 5.0 login (Early Access).

I hope they post the updated job guide tomorrow so I can at least sort out my new keypad layout and bindings.. So many changes for NIN..

I'll have to start creating an alt first, just to confirm that Hrothgar is available for early access before go I into edit mode on my main.

yeah that's what i was thinking, I was really excited when Hrothgar was announced but as the days where drawing closer, it felt like i was loosing a loved one (pretty dramatic eh!) so for the time being I took lots of photos of my "old" char and changed a retainer to his looks so it feels more like he retired from being an adventurer and slapped him on an expansion of duties scroll.

I know the feeling, I was so excited to be Viera, but after I ordered my fantasia last night I started to feel quite anxious and had to change my orchestrion to something less sad sounding lol. I'm still changing though, it just feels... odd.

Ive been a Roe since ARR beta so Im very attached to my character. However, I always liked starting fresh during every expansion. This is the first time that I'll go Fantasia into a different race, it's so nerve-wracking. This thread is so appreciated.

before you do the switch if you havent already, save your current model, either way if you love viera you could always use a retainer fantasia and change a retainer to your Super cute Lala and still glam that Smol Bean up, give her a little perky attitude and feel like she just took time away from the old Adventuring Lark. or at least remake her as an alt. (altough myself prefer the retired version). But GL with the next few days of being larger than a footstool. you've got alot more to get used to than me XD, but at least you'll be able to target things that're more than 3 foot high (tried lala on an alt once, i couldn't even open doors without walking about 10 paces awayto find the node..didn't last long XD.)

Actually to all of us who have never changed their main character, I wish you all the best of luck, and hope you feel you made the right decision.
