World Transfer to Phoenix Server - Advice?

[BlackValse]

I've been looking for some help in order to transfer my character from the Zodiark server onto Phoenix due to personal reasons. However, I've come across a few snags along the way - mainly that I've been playing for quite a while and as a result I've accumulated more than the 1 million gil transfer limit.

I've made a thread here which explains things in more detail. It's already made a bit of discussion on the matter for those interested: http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...er-Help-Advice

In a nutshell I've asked what the best items to buy are in order to help make my gil back. I realise this depends on a servers' economy and what's currently in demand, so I'd really appreciate it if folk can let me know what people are clamouring for here on Phoenix so I can make back some of my coin.

I'm still looking at servers under the Chaos Data Centre, but it would be nice to be welcomed into your server community. Thanks for any help in advance!

Relic crafted items go quite nicely, 4 of the Francesca's are selling for about 1M gil in HQ

Pterydactols are good too about 20K each for those, 25K for HQ

Treasure maps, mainly the Timeworn Wyvernskin, those too are about 100K a piece.

Thanks Yukileonhart, if I happen to jump over to Phoenix I'll be sure to look you up. Shards and Materia are looking like the best way for me to retain gil, but I'll look into buying some treasure maps to bring over and resell.

How is the community over on Phoenix? Is the duty finder full of queues or quick to pop? Any information would be really helpful.

You are welcome as for community Phoenix its nice and cozy and after the data center moved yea the DF is almost working all day even on late night server time (^,^)

That's a relief, on Zodiark I've found myself waiting near 3 hours for certain dungeons. I'm honestly not exaggerating either - I may just post a screenshot as proof. Is there any roleplaying on Phoenix? That's always been an interest of mine. Any information on the player base can help me choose my home.

Thanks for all the advice regarding my gil situation, I'll make sure to put it to use.

I'd just like to thank everyone once again for their helpful input. As you can now see from my profile, I've finally jumped over to Phoenix to make a new home for myself. Looking forward to experiencing the community and perhaps I'll catch some of you around!
