[NA-EST] Neutral Impact - End Game

[GreyJorildyn]

A Final Fantasy XIV Linkshell of

Do you remember the excitement of your first Valkurm Dunes party? The heart-pumping exhiliration you felt when fighting Nidhogg? What about the epic feeling of the Divine Might battle? How about the thrill every time you took on Tiamat?

From the Ridill drops, to the Vrtra vanquishing, to the Absolute Virtue wipes—These are the moments we recall best and are the very same emotions that brought us to FFXIV. Our journey to recapture those feelings is why we are all here!

About Us

Neutral Impact is a group of friends with a passion for gaming. Our core group consists of players who have fought alongside each other in the past in various online games. We are now in a different stage of our lives, but we do not let that change our desire to win. In fact, we use that to our advantage. By emphasizing good communication and excellent teamwork, we meet our in-game goals without the sacrifice of a healthy personal life.

Our sensible raid schedule does not limit our ability to reach the top. Playing hard is important, but we also believe playing smart is greater. Many of our members are working professionals, full-time students, or new parents. We often bring our real life skills into the game to give us an extra edge. Be it expertise in math, economics, or artistic vision, we apply our out-of-game talents to every challenge. We prefer to work efficiently, taking full advantage of our Linkshell forums and Teamspeak to stay well-informed and coordinated.

We enjoy sharing good laughs on Teamspeak and goofing off in-game. But when raid time rolls around, we put on our game face, ready to kick ass. Events are strategized in advance, recorded on video, and parsed to review our own performance, always looking for room to improve. We encourage skillful play, quick thinking, and adaptability. Our players play to be the best as we accept nothing less.

The Linkshell has been pursuing end-game content since beta, adapting to the changes of the game as it has evolved. Our members have built a long-term friendship that extends beyond FFXIV. We are always looking for like-minded people with positive and colorful personalities to play with and join our small family.


Ideal Teammates

Our ideal teammates come from all walks of life, but each and everyone one of them has the following qualities:

Active – You enjoy the game every day!
Someone who enjoys exploring all the game's content, be it leveling, crafting, gathering, questing, or anything else in between. Sometimes it’s about the journey, not the destination. Active players are invested in the game and the guild.

Mature – You can take a joke and dish ‘em out!
Applicants are not limited by age, but they must be intelligent, considerate, and enjoy friendly competition. A sense of humor is totally a must! We do not like drama; we’re all here to have a good time together.

Reliable – You’re responsible and can be counted on!
Our players are able to follow a schedule. They check the forums frequently, and communicate with members and leaders. We consider communication one of the most important aspects to a successful linkshell. If you signed up for a raid and can’t make it, please let your teammates know!

Skillful – You desire to play at the maximum potential.
You can do this using your past knowledge and experience of game mechanics, or by investing time to research, test new things, or practice playing your role until you can execute it with precision. You must be the kind of person who pushes the envelope in the gaming world, evolving and adapting to an ever-changing gaming environment.

Motivated – You want to get things done to better yourself and the group!
To get something, you must want it first. Players here possess a passion for success and are driven to discover possibilities. If you pour your heart into the job you play and lead by example, this Linkshell is for you!

Hello everyone on Gungnir, it's nice to meet you! My name is Shiu, I used to be a FFXI player on Midgarsormr before it became Quetzalcoatl. I am in charge of recruitment here at NI.

Our linkshell is set to transfer to Gungnir in this world merge, and I'm very excited to meet new people there. During this world transfer period, we are welcoming exceptional applications from any servers to join us in our new home. If NI sounds like a linkshell you would like to be a part of, please send us an application from our website: http://www.impact-gaming.us/neutral-impact/apply. Or if there's anything you would like to know before applying, you can always email me at ffxivrecruiter@impact-gaming.us. Thank you for taking your time to read about our linkshell!

Good luck on recruiting =)

Man, does every linkshell have a website? I feel...inadequate.

Thank you for the well wishes! I find it really useful to have a linkshell website, it's easy to keep people updated on events and for members to keep in touch. There are some sites out there that hosts really nice guild websites with all the tools you need.

Shiu/Grey, nice to meet you, welcome to Gungnir.! Good luck to your shell, I have not seen too many end-game shells stand the test of time (at least on Mysidia). You guys seem to have a good attitude though, which will go a long way.

Oster, many Linkshells do run a site. It really helps for some advanced group organization / discussion. It also provides an environment to new members who have less game experience, or veteran members wanting information to maximize their potential.

[GreyJorildyn]

Thank Holy. We've been around since Beta and have only gotten better with age. Well met, and see you on Gungnir!

@Shui @Holy

Really? Is there a fee involved or is it free? Oh man, I'm getting another bad idea again. Someone stop me!

[Shiu]

Thank you for the warm welcome Holy, I'm looking forward to joining you guys on Gungnir.

To Oster: They are usually free with ads, or paid without ads and more features. A few I can think of are: guildwork.com, enjin.com, and guildportal.com. I've only used the enjin one though, but they seem to have a lot of useful tools for running a guild website.

Thank Holy. We've been around since Beta and have only gotten better with age. Well met, and see you on Gungnir!

Always nice to see a fellow Beta linkshell =)

This is a recruitment thread so let's find some more recruits! We've already received 8 applications since posting this up and space is dwindling. Prior end game experience and accomplishments are important to us!
