    Grand Companies

    So I reached the point of choosing my own GC in the main plot. At the time, the message stated I could change my GC so I chose Maelstrom in a big to move on with the main plot. Now that I have decided to I wish to join the Immortal Flames, I've found out I need to reach max rank within my current GC before I can switch (which also resets my rank within the new GC). I found this info on old posts (back at launch) and I'm hoping the system has changed as this iteration is very flawed in my eyes. Can someone confirm or deny if I have to reach max rank to transfer?

    Thanks.

    Pretty sure this has not changed. I also don't know if you can change immediately or if you have to wait 30 days upon reaching max rank. I know once you change rank the first time you can't do it again for another 30 days.

    Unfortunately, you will have to reach the rank of second lieutenant before you can switch grand companies.

    This does require you to level up to 49 or 50 first to complete all the GC-related quests (you need to complete a lv.44 dungeon and have access to a lv.50 dungeon) to become a second lieutenant.

    After you change grand companies, you cannot change again until 30 days afterwards. You will also start from the lowest rank again, private 2nd class. The first transfer is also free, but subsequent transfers will cost you 50k gil.

    Thought as such, but thanks for the bad news anyway folks. Wish the game had been more clear when saying I can change GC - though it would be simple : (

    Come lvl 50 is 45,000 seals quite quick via fates?

    It sure is or even better you can level another class while still earning seals. I am always maxed on seals unfortunately as i have no need for gc weapons atm
