If you happen to use the transfer option, I'd make sure to make seven or so characters so you can transfer them all at once during one transfer. You could also look up character names that already exist on Balmung and name your characters as those. You can get a free name change that way (You'll need to use it before logging into that character). But hey, free name change and a free fantasia (Loyalty bonus) and you pretty much have a new character slot.
Good luck!
Thank you very much, especially for the advice about the transfer!
I think for now I'll aim to get in right before server downtime, since there's maintenance coming up soon. I guess now the only issue is deciding which character I want to roleplay as.
Does anyone have any advice about roleplaying on FFXIV specifically? I've roleplayed before, but I'm more familiar with play-by-post and my game experience is primarily Ragnarok Online from way back when and the occasional TERA Online.
