    What happens when you change Grand Companies?

    I'm currently the highest rank with the Twin Adders, have 50K seals and have nothing more to buy. I want to change to a different GC, but I'm not sure what I lose with the conversion. Do you keep your seals to spend on the new GC (If you do lose them, could I buy up some skill point respecs to use later on?)? Will the weapons and armor I bought from the Twin Adders still be useable or become locked? What about barding and the minion? Anything else?

    Thanks!

    -You will still keep all of the seals but they will become unusable. For example all the twin adder seals you have can't be used with the immortal flames.
    -All of the weapons and armor will also be locked out.
    -Your barding will be locked
    -Not sure about the minion

    No. Seals from each company are unique and can't be transferred. However, they are not lost. If you change back to the previous company at a later date, all seals earned will still be there. If you go to your currency tab, you can still see the value of other GC seals earned, but they wil be greyed out. If you aren't planning to return to that GC, then by all means, spend the points on something you can use elsewhere

    Locked. You won't be able to equip items belonging to a different GC. But you can trade them in to your new GC for seals when you unlock the option.

    Thanks!
    You can not equip barding belonging to a different GC, but if you already had a piece of gear equipped it will still be there. Say you had the Twin Adder feathered helm on and you went to Flames, You could equip the Flames Body and legs, but so long as you don't overwrite the helm with another one, it will still be wearing it. Minions you can summon regardless of GC affiliation.

    You can switch back at any time (for a 50,000 gil fee - only the first transfer is free) and wil be able to use the seals and items for that GC, and you will retain the rank you reached prior to switching. You can hop to all 3, collect the barding and minions and get the easy GC achievements done before returning to the one you most like.

    In addition to what have been said above, IIRC, your rank will be resetted as well.

    I believe this affects PvP as well. I think if you change it resets your PvP rank.
    I'm not 100% on this, though. =/

    It doesnt reset but like with seals you have an individual pvp rank for every grand company. So if you change back to your old company you will have your old rank.
