Favorite 1.0 memories?

Going on screenshot excursions with friends to every corner of Eorzea, soloing everything short of the bosses in strongholds, and beating Ifrit with a party of 6. Good times.

Edit: Also, Nail of the Heavens.

The day it all ended...

It was probably last year's Halloween event for me. Halloween is by far my favorite holiday, so it was pretty cool seeing all that SE had done for the event. Not only did I enjoy the quests, but I love the aesthetic additions to all the cities, and the event theme that played in the cities. I hadn't played the game too much before that event, but during the event it was hard to put down, and after spending so much time with the game, it's become one of my favorite games. Unfortunately, I lost my Pumpkin helmet, and didn't have time to get a new one. :/

I'm really looking forward to a similar event this year, too.

Torn between when I uninstalled it because it was so broken, or when the servers were finally shut down.

Fire dancing with friends!

I loved the Halloween event, and the Grand Company questline leading up to the White Raven fight.

It was a trainwreck to start with, but I have a lot of fond memories of the game from about 1.17 on. As fantastic as ARR is (and I adore it), I think I'll always miss the old game just a little.

i loved 1.0 ~ 1.23 ...but the memory that will probably stand out the most? is when i killed nael, took bradamante, and planted it in that punkin patch for hildebrand to find, and blow'em self away for ever and ever. didn't take much gilz to keep that farmer hushed in fact he was on board with the whole thing. but really though i met the coolest peeps and despite a rough start from and older LS disbanding without notice we stuck together and formed what is probably the greatest LS and group of people that i've ever met. Endeavor. and if any of my ffxi friends from old come over i can only begin to imagine how epic 2.0~ will be!

Probably something like, doing weird things just because we thought it'd look funny. Like picking up the same leve and popping them outside of a party before they patched the game, and filling a whole area full of the same mob. Cave of aldgoats.

Level 1 nude runs to Coerthas. Competing for drops within a group against other groups, which isn't sarcasm it was a lot of fun to work with a bunch of friends to get everyone that one thing. Even if it gave me a new found dislike for karakul. :/

Watching the patches progress with Dalamud growing closer, imperial ships in the sky etc.. and getting White Ravens

This boss fight in Castrum Novum.

Had a blast doing this multiple times for people! Those damn gates though, never could get the timing right.
