we can join other companies right?

[devilzpawn]

I'm going to pick a company today and I just wanted to make sure before I make the plunge that we cant switch or earn seals towards another. (the whole different company different items thing is my problem here )

You can be a recruit in all three companies, but when you eventually graduate to Private you will have to swear allegiance to only one. There will be enough prompts when the time comes so it won't take you unawares.

At current you can only join one and all of your seals in the others are locked (not deleted, locked) and you can only get seals for the company you have joined. They have said they are looking into letting us change companies at a later date but there has been no word on when.

As to items, they have said they will be equalizing them I the future. Also most of the company gear is pretty lackluster compared to crafted/materia gear ( company gear can not have materia added) so I wouldn't worry to much about it.

Choose the company you like the look/story of, the rest is immaterial.

i heard when the company issue (which to join) first came up, that u should not base ur pick on the gear u can get. as in the future all 3 will have gear for all classes

adders front line of defense = cannon fodda. followed by the flames = grunts, great in battle but little to no intelligence. join us the Maelstrom when our ally's are all dead but have weeken the enemy. the thinking man's company will finish them off. and take all the glory and be hailed as heros

ps sorry adder and flames didn't meant to offend :P

Except the Garleans can fly so.....

They could honestly move down from Sharlayan too, apparently they've fallen. They could even move in through Mor Dhona, we know they've got a presence there too. Honestly with their vastly superior airships they could really just strike from anywhere.

Don't be a shroud hugger or an Immortal Lamer! Join the Maelstrom- the one true Grand Company

Back on topic- yess, you are locked into a GC like a street gang once you reach a certain point and prove your worth, as well as your loyalty. So make sure to sleep on the decision! and don't live in regret. (Regret in this case would equal joining Immortal Flames or Twin Adder)
