Your favourite GC

So, what's your favourite Grand Company and why? Mine is Maelstrom, because:

-Roes
-Pirates
-Ships and the sea
And most importantly MERLWYB <3

The other two are kind of boring.
Immortal Flames - serving a silly lala princess, also lots of greedy capitalist lalafell.
Order of the Twin Adder - Treehugers. 'nuff said.

I'm surprised to see that Maelstrom is vastly outnumbered by the other two. Also, is there a chance we will see another GC in future updates?

HEY, NANAMO IS FRIGGIN' CUTE. IMMA CUT YOU

Ishgard because I love dragoon lore and the Coerthan region. Also cause I love chocobos and the Ishgardians are the choco masters. Also, Ishgard looks amazing at night <3.

Yeah yeah not technically a GC as of 2.35 but likely to be in 3.0. I don't really have any love for the current GCs but if I were to pick I'd go with Gridania.

once the crystal braves become a actual Grand Company (which will prolly be the same time mor dhona because a main city) it will most likely be them since they won't be lame pirates or some silly hippys or a flame they will feed blood to the life crystal!!! and have the coolest armor!!!

i will most likely like them best :D

Twin adders for life!
I actually can't remember why I choose Twin Adders o.o I kinda think Maelstorm appeals to me more nowadays :P

But trees! nature! Elementals! and horrid coloured armour! Yeys :3

I like the Twin Adders because my main is a WHM. I am kind of attracted to the idea of a WHM being one with nature. Also, I am a nature person and the forests (Black Shroud) gives a feeling of "peace".

It would be weird for me to choose Maelstrom because I have a phobia of deep water, being on ships and the ocean anyway. I don't enjoy such things.

Not interested in the concept of the Immortal Flames.

I chose Twin Adder for similar reasons to Pantz. My main is WHM, so it just made sense. Didn't like how MONEY MONEY MONEY the Immortal Flames were either. Pirate didn't suit my character. Started in Gridania, the WHM quests are all naturey so yeah. I like the allied seals gear so I'm glad I did chose them. & funny you should say that Maelstrom is least popular BillyBones, on my server I'd say it's one of the most popular ones.

I dunno, I kinda like the legs of the mage set. I'd pair it with different pieces for the rest though.

oooeh. Shocker. I see a lot of people wearing the gear for them and not much of the others. :3

To the forest until death.

I chose Maelstrom because it was the starting city for Arcanists, so it seemed fitting. Really, none of the Grand Companies suit me as they have some really glaring faults and I'd rather hang out with Alphibro and the Crystal Braves. Prior to the Braves being shown, I wish SE had allowed us to decline all three of the grand companies.

I used to be a Flame, I loved Ul'dah and Nanamo but I wanted a red coat (the original from the GC vendor, before hunting) so I switched to them. :( But my heart still belongs to Nanamo.

Immortal Flames.
My adventure begun in Ul'dah, it's my hometown.

Can't believe such a stylish city has such colorblind designers for our GC gear though, the regular stuff I mean. The allied seals stuff doesn't suit me but it isn't bad.

Well the Maelstrom is alright, they have nice colors, and ships and the ocean is cool, but they do seem to be instigating their beastmen tribes by taking over their lands, and lot of crime happens.
Flames, they have some power in Ul'dah, but evil Lalafells are running things, and their city is full of slavery, corruption, and they treat the poor horribly, as well as anyone not a citizen of ul'dah, like ala mighan refugees.
The twin adder tries to keep peace, they have a treaty with the sylphs, they did kick out the ixali, because the elementals did not want them, but they may have a good reason for it, so aside from being at elementals' whim, adders seems best, and i like the magical forest feel of gridania

Twin Adders. Other GCs are for different mentalities, crush something and wannabe pirate ones.

I am not on RP server, but I chose Twin Adders because I ended up in Gridania, with Ranger so it made a sense to me. Later I have found out that I dont like other cities. Uldah is just a place for greedy capitalists and Limsa is a nest of fish lovers and I hate fish. :D

Flames of course:
- Nanamo <3
- I'm a proud Ul'dahn and like to fight for my hometown
- Because Ul'dah is where sand is turned into gold (to hell with the poor slackers!)
- Ul'dah is run by the masterrace
- Nanamo <3

Order of the Twin Adder, because motherly loving caring ladies are my favorite.

I like the philosophy of the Twin Adders, but I went Maelstrom because I started in Limsa. I stay Maelstrom because it fits with my character's back story. Also, I like the red and black motif of the Maelstrom stuff. Probably the biggest reason, though, is because I grew up in CA and I love the ocean. Til sea swallows all!

Twin Adder for life.. Been one since grand companies were introduced in 1.x :)

Immortal Flames because my love for the Sultana is stronger then my love for pirates.
and because Twin Adders = Gridania = Mother Miounne.
and for some reasons I really REALLY can't stand Mother Miounne.

...also because the allied seals gear is amazing. and purple.
I love purple.

Get outta heeeeere.

Twin Adder because :
-one with nature
-absolutely beautiful scenery of Black Shroud
- yellow GC color... I like yellow c:
- hunt gears look the best out of all of them (to me anyway and it have the only hoodie looking armour)
Why not Immortal Flames?
- CURRUPT GOV
- CURRUPT PEOPLE
- CURRUPT CITY
- its in a savanna/desert... Not much scenery but rocks/sand
- GC gear is just not my style (stuff looks ugly imo)
Why not Mealstorm (I started in limsa
- Pirates
- Reo pirates
- The sea
- GC gear looks way to mainstream (and it is)
Though these reasons are in few they weighed heavly with me.
So...

Twin Adder!!
-No road is closed to those true at heart.

Flames. Because my first char was a blm and the caravan journey+ first impression of uldah is just unforgettable.

Maelstrom, nothing against the other two as each GC has their own theme. Maelstrom just has the colors I like more. Besides.. I'd rather side with the group that has guns. >_>

Though if I ever switch I'd probably go with Adders.

Maelstrom of course

Twin Adders

things I like:
- Gridania
- Kan-E-Senna
- Raya-O-Senna
- Conjurer/White Mage

things I don't like:
- Yellow
- Twin Adders hunt gears

Isn't it obvious?

The Flames for me. Nanamo~ <3

If I went by looks alone id have chosen Maelstorm. However I hate the sea, nor very fond of the desert so I went with Adders. Who knows, maybe we'll get a good artist designingour stuff some time in the future, lol. The new weapons look real nice, cant say the same about the gear minus a few pieces.

Twin Adders.

-I like forest type areas, lots of rain/water is nice too.
-Ken-E is cute imo and I think she has a good head on her shoulders. Something about her makes me want to protect Gridania for her.
-Raya-O is the cutest girl in the whole game IMO. Short and petite, red hair, freckles, green eyes, and a tomboyish personality (at least in 1.0). To bad she'll likely never get used again outside of the whm quest line.
-I feel most calm while idling/crafting in grid, I don't know why but it puts me at ease.

I'd have said Ishgard but the kind of leader I like for royal kingdoms is a cute princess not a corrupt old man. what? One of the first game I ever played and one of my all time favorites was The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past, of course I have a small thing for princesses. :P

I choose Twin Adders cuz moogles, white mages, forest, pretty-ness everywhere!
I like their weapons a lot, the allied seal ones too are gorgeous.

However! I actually really enjoy desert scenery and Uldah used to be my favorite town, so I stayed with THM/BLM being my starting class.

I admire Maelstrom too mostly cuz of Merylwb and having a good view of the sea and their flag color being red. Can't get into the piraty vibe though :(

For coin and country!

I'd say Gridania. I started as a CNJ and E Sumi Yan and eventually Kan E Senna/ Padjals/Elementals truly interested me. It made sense that my character would pick Gridania.

So far I did finished all the Classes, DoL and will finish LTW soon enough. The only thing I disliked was the outright discrimination I faced from the archer guild master and A Ruhn Senna

Twin Adder, always stuck with them since release! Won't change everrrr!
