Lodestone update server names revealed

I'm enchanted by the tales of Merlin and King Arthur, so I'm excited by the name change. I hope it encourages like-minded individuals to our server. =)

You all don't like Sargatanas? I think it sounds pretty badass but that's just me I guess. I've also got no qualms with Balmung but that's probably mostly due to Balmung of the Azure Sky from .hack//

I had picked Figaro because it was from FFVI, the best Final Fantasy. Even with the server name change, I am still happy. I think Aegis sounds cool and I remember using the shields in FFVI too. Yay!

Welcome all Wutai players to our glorious new server!
Love,
Your new Taru King Overlord!

Nice! I like the server names. Hope to make some new friends from the Gysahl server ^^

Hmm... now I need to decide between moving with the rest of my server to Balmung or moving to Ragnarock to match my timezone (GMT).

Question is, previously they labeled the final server as 'recommended for french and german speakers' but now it's EU time zones, I don't want to be stuck on a server on which 90% of the conversation is unreadable to me.

EU peak is over 200, I've never really bothered getting the actual number. I have counted JP prime in the 400-500 range though.

NA peak (east coast) reached an all time low for my observations last week at 136 online at 8pm, down from an average of around 180 for the past month or two. I stopped logging in regularly after that so I can't say if it's gotten worse.

Sargatanas remins me of the Diremite boss in Totorak

Durandal has got "Hungry Like the Wolf" stuck in my head >.<

It was a mistake, they never wanted this server to be FR/DE only.
Anyway, Fr/De/Sp/Uk and whatever players will always have to use english to play together.

Ragnarok is supposed to be an international server with a good amount of EU players.

Mind, i'm no good at mithology, so I might be wrong

Balmung great sword drop from Fafnir in FFXI: I think your wiki info is correct also:P
