I'm looking to move to any server on Aether and willing to play on any GC for Shatter. WHM/AST main, experience with callouts on VOIP, and am happy to take criticism despite my massive amounts of salt some days.
Cactuar is my home server and I've been playing PVP pretty much every day. I have a small LS and at one point we had enough players to have two teams queuing light party on Discord, and we've also done duos or small premades in Seal Rock with moderate success.
Honestly, it's just too hard to maintain an active population with all the transfers, unsubs, etc, so I'm looking to move on to something bigger and more established. I want a regular PVP crew, not a revolving door in need of constant tending. When I organized light party games I'd sometimes spend an hour getting players for maybe 30 minutes of queues, and still heard complaints about there not being enough PVP.
Looking for active PVP community, any server--will transfer

Balmung! there are 2 active PVP linkshells i know of
there is also the highly premade active RUM FC on gilgamesh (but if you can widthstand their "fast" reputation then go for it) -

There's a smallish pvp community on Behemoth :) It's a linkshell run by Shalua Lie who often streams his matches.

I wasn't aware the queue was limited to just the data centers. I wonder if combining the data centers into the queue would help with the population.

05-30-2016, 04:37 PMShaluaLieAwh shucks :> but its ran by everyone in the linkshell really :P JOIN US!!!!Quote:

She said Aether, tho @ the few posts above me.
Sargatanas has a semi-active Flames group. Dunno much about the other grand companies, though. I transferred to Sargatanas from Siren largely due to the lack of pvp community there but it's also a nice medium/legacy server. Although to get anywhere in pve it really helps to know people before you transfer over.
We're tentatively planning to do groups for Shatter :3
Edit: If you want more info you can feel free to personal message me on discord, though. -

Come to Leviathan on Primal, i'll take good care of you ;) all my fc does is pvp all day
-
05-31-2016, 04:09 AMFunkYeahDragonsThat's correct, I appreciate the friendliness from Primal but I at least know familiar faces on Aether. Not sure if I'll move my main or a 60 alt yet, as there are still 2 people I know playing. I really want to leave Cactuar but I don't want to leave them.Quote:

Gilgamesh I thought was supposed to be the biggest NA server PVP and raid wise. Though pvp just isn't that popular in NA anyway compared to JP wherever you go the queues will follow the same pattern of quick queues at the beginning of a new contents life and dead queues after a few weeks as long as you stay in an NA data center.

Come to any JP server if you interested with PvP. I don't know any PvP LS tho but PvP never dies here. :)

If you want a heavy base pvp fc go to gilgamesh and look into RUM. MSG Tea Cross.

Wound up moving my alt to Balmung which will be my new home base. I know there is/was a small Maelstrom and Flames presence on Cactuar, both inactive, but I think I'll wait and see if they're active in Shatter.

Balmung seems to be the place I keep hearing about for PVP. I really need some help with healer in this game and I'm looking for some friends to help me improve. Even when we win at the Feast, I just can't ever seem to pull high healing numbers. It makes me wonder if I only win because my other 3 team members are just that much better. Currently on Excalibur but PVP here seems dead.

Shields aren't calculated as Healing, while overhealing with Regens will count. So if you are getting outhealed, it could just be that the opposing healer is spamming AoE or keeping up regens.Quote:

06-06-2016, 05:18 AMShake0615A few of the people I ran with who complained about being matched with me took issue with the numbers. I guess I just took their criticism at face value. I still feel like I'm lacking somewhere and need to improve. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯Quote:

There are threads with links to streamers for all the healing jobs, so if you're concerned you could take a look at their techniques. Many have games saved on their Twitch channels for people to watch.Quote:

That said, this is a game where many players with multiple 60's don't know how to do Sohm Al--and there are actual guides for that--so don't take anything to heart from players you don't trust the expertise of. Whether or not you're new to healing. -

If only they would fix the numbers showing on the scoreboard so the healer doing 90% aoe overhealing by spamming it on his party with no enemy in sight doesn't end up with a higher number than the scholar/noct astrologian using shields and keeping people alive in an actual fight, it would fix a lot of misconceptions.
As a noct AST, you can pretty much take your number and double it to have a good idea where you stand against a WHM. Sadly, a lot of people just look at the number that is shown to them... -
06-07-2016, 01:04 AMShake0615Oh wow. Thanks for that. I'm definitely going to be looking through this!Quote:
