Thanks everyone. A shame that everything is locked behind Free Company housing when that housing is, from what I can see, rather unobtainable by Free Companies recently established. Regardless of gil saved, there just aren't enough wards to allow access to everyone and being that there is no removal of dead FC's from these wards (that I'm aware of), it sucks for those of us who are up and coming and cannot access these features.

I hope they do add these features to personal housing and grand companies, but I sure do feel a bit put out. It is what it is. I'm looking forward to personal housing and hoping that in time, they'll allow for more free company wards as well!
