Lodestone update server names revealed

[Masamune1004]

Ah, I see, well I personally see nothing wrong with RPers, they generally seem like a nice bunch of folks =) I will miss the name Fabul, however... name holds a lot of meaning to me as it was my first FF/rpg ever.

We're also the unofficial fabulous server, and seeing as your server is fabul, I think you'll fit in just fine

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.

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.

[Ilethius]

happy with Masamune!

[Answa]

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

Selbina > Ridill
Wutai + Gysahl > Masamune
Rabanastre + Cornelia > Durandal
Melmond + Figaro > Aegis
Istory + Mysidia > Gungnir
Saronia + Lindblum > Sargatanas
Fabul + Besaid > Balmung
Trabia + Kashuan > Hyperion
Karnak + Palamecia + Bodhum > Excalibur
New Server > Ragnarok * (recommended for EU time zones)

The additional context people providing to the new sever names is enlightening (all one word sword names of course). I am guessing server 10 with the name Ragnarok might actually draw EU players and players from other timezones to the server. It might not be a problem filling that server at all and it really is the residual of the merge option #4.

Allow me to be the first to welcome everyone from Fabul ^^
