Lodestone update server names revealed

[MariyaShidou]

I got Excalibur so no complaints here wooooooo! :P

Later it turns out to be Excalipoor.

O ya completly my opinion, can hardly say that some people who love .hack or a Norse buff wouldn't enjoy the name. But as this is a Final Fantasy game and there are servers like Ragnorak and Masamune on a greater scale it will be probably less liked.

Well Balmung has been in several Final Fantasy games so I honestly think most people will be fine with it. I like most of the server names and am fine with the rest. Im on Gungnir now which in my opinion is a pretty cool name although kinda hard to pronounce haha.

Yeah i too like the name of Gungnir the most of all ,
but yet you have to understand that "Haters gonna hate" and that's all.

Look on the lodestone post...the first Old Server name references a town in a FF title, and the new server name represents a weapon from said game.

Selbina = FFXI = Ridill
Rabanastre = FFXII = Durandal
Lindblum = FFIX = Sargatanas
Wutai = FFVII = Masamune
Trabia = FFVIII = Hyperion

etc.

>Sargatanas

I got the fact that the server names use one "important" weapon from one of the games that merged into it, but Sargatanas? Even Zidane's Mage Masher would've been a better choice.

[Ilethius]

happy with Masamune!

[Answa]

PLEASE GOD! Make the RPers not want to go to Balmung. PLEASE!

nope mostly the weapon name that they use is the name that's from some legend and mythology

just like Hyperion that's Seifer's Gunblade and also from mythology
in FF IX which weapon that's named after mythology? (only counted sword name)
1.Sargatanas
2.Excalibur(already in used)
3.Masamune(already in used)
4.Ragnarok (already in used)

and that's why they use Sargatanas ,
Sargatanas is the name of demon in mythology which he's the underling of Astaroth

Aegis is a shield in many mythology and appear in many FF series
Gungnir is a spear of odin and appear in my FF sereis
Hyperion is one of 12 titan in greeks mythology and appear to be Seifer's Gunbalde
Ridill is weapon that appears in Norse Mythology, possessed by the dwarf Regin.
Balmung is the name of the sword that Sigurd (Siegfried) used to kill the dragon Fafnir
Durandal is the sword of Charlemagne's paladin Roland in the literary cycle known as the Matter of France. ( appear in FF X , XI , XII )

and yes Sargatanas first appear in FF IX

They could use Iron Sword.

They could use Iron Sword.

That did pop up a lot in mythology, so it's not totally implausible.
