How to build a good FC (looking for tips)

[Yeol]

If you are going for a social-Midcore FC then you don't need more than 3 Ranks.
- Master.
- Artisan.
- Member.

FC Chest:
Withdraw Gil --> Master.
Deposit Gil --> Master, Artisan, Member.
Remove items --> Master, Artisan.
Add items --> Master, Artisan.

FC workshop and company credits:
Buy FC actions --> Master.
Execute FC actions --> Master, Artisan.
Workshop and airships --> Master, Artisan.

there are way more things than what I listed above such as house decoration, harvesting, and gardening.

If FC members wanted something they can simply contact Master or Artisans.

Don't invite any random players without FC to yours before talking to them first. They might be without one because they got kicked from their previous FC.

As a leader, try to be around as often as possible. Nothing worse than an absent leader, whether or not there are sub-leaders picking up the slack. Demonstrate that you are committed, and not just phoning it in.

Try to circulate among everyone, and put them first before your own needs. Which is easier said than done for those times when you want to work on your own progress, but that's the sacrifice you have to make that separates you from being a follower. Otherwise, you might as well just be another keyholder. Don't expect that your council will do things for you.

^ Very good advice.
Help your FC members with anything you can. Daily roulettes, weekly loot and so on. This will make them stick around because the FC is actually helpful.

If drama starts up, handle it privately. If you need to kick someone, do it. Don't worry about losing members.
