Diabolos is kinda dead, good server to transfer to?

ALL HAIL BALMUNG!

I really wish separate servers weren't a thing at this point and there was just a big mega server. People will just keep going to the populated servers because the advanatges to playing on a populated server vastly out way the advantages playing on a dead one. There are too many servers in this game. We do not need this many servers.

Honestly I'm wondering if the server will ever crash with all the people moving in lol

Well I understand why people want to try Balmung since it's so populated. I really hope the cross-server party finder to be a thing. That might even be the beginning of a megaserver update for 4.0, making the game more like WoW or GW2 on that aspect, which is awesome. With that, being on Balmung wouldn't mean much, people would still be able to play with their friends and spend time together but the need to be on a very especific server would not be there anymore. That would even solve the housing problem completely.

But oh well, back on topic: I would say for you to create alts and see what you like about each server. A small visit at Limsa, Ul'Dah and the PF to some extent might give you a headsup about what the servers are like. I like Gilga, Balmung, Sarg, Levi, Hyperion, Behe and Faerie if you're on NA. If EU I'd say Odin, Phoenix, Ragna or Zodi.

It has,

The whole of Aether was inaccessable for quite a bit of the first few days of 3.0 because of the overpopulation on Balmung and Gilgamesh.

As long as people are willing to pay to transfer, its highly unlikely we'll ever see that or even server merges. SE wont even do server merges for XI because "not enough of the player base has requested it" but they did cut transfer costs....We'll most likely see a price cut in transfer costs before we see merges or a mega server. SE loses too much money otherwise.

COME 1 COME ALL TO GILGAMESH! WHERE THE SERVER IS ALWAYS OVERCROWDED!

I remember how they had to have different instances for each HW zone because too many people were flooding in. It was a mess.

Don't you think it's about time to increase the gil allowed during transfer?

Not only that but the amount of gil you can trade as well. It's annoying to craft an 8mil item that someone requested and have a limit of 1mil per trade. -_-

I hate Balmung, only transferred because of a friend.

I liked Gilgamesh, kind of miss it.

Midgardsormr was okay.

Uldah in Balmung is Hell.
