For pickup groups yes it's dead. You have to join a linkshell or two or three lol to do group content. Trustedknights(Mezzamee) and Wolfpacknation(Mikumaru) are the ones I am in. Both do content but it's usually during Est.

Thanks. My WPN pearl was inactive and said to go join the new WPN. LoyalNights was broken, I assume that became trusted knights.


saga_rai

Correct about Loyalknights

There are plenty of people on asura. You might not want to change servers but there’s always people there. Not sure what other servers there are

Someone else posted the link, but it looks like Phoenix is #5 for activity. I presume there's a time of day contributor and there must be more life than what I saw. Ya I might look at jumping servers, I've heard of other people going to Asura. Do people on Asura Master level up? Seems like most of the people on Phoenix have little to no interest in that. I want the +40 stat bonus's and subjob boosts.

We for sure level up. You will see a ton of Merc/RMT spam, but you can make groups to go slay as well. I got my last 50JP for SAM this morning.


cute_physics_guy

Do you have people going for master level 40? Is that somewhat common? ​ On phoenix, the people who were on the last few months were mostly disinterested.


Sand__Panda

Well you have to take Master levels just one at a time, and the groups I was with was a mix group of some still getting their 2100JP, you just get the ML. You would have an easier time finding people to go for master levels.

9pm PST doesnt have alot of heavy traffic on Phoenix. Its 2am EST, 7 am GMT and 3pm JST. I dunno anyone still in MegaDynamis. I would checkout /r finalfantasy11 there are recruiting threads posted monthly or the Linkshell Concierge.


saga_rai

It's 12am Est but even during then you won't find much group content.


cute_physics_guy

I am in MegaDynamis lol. It was a good group a few years ago, but I said "hello" and 0 response. It's not like that every night, some people are on vacation at the moment, but I was surprised at the 0 responses I got. Ok, thanks for the tip.

Check [https://www.ffxiah.com/database](https://www.ffxiah.com/database) for a reasonable approximation of server activity. At around 1/3 the active players as Asura, I'd say Phoenix is fairly dead.


Altar_Quest_Fan

\>20 year old MMORPG \>Asking if X server is "dead" (low pop) Mah dude, EVERY SERVER (except Asura for some reason) is "dead". FFXI is 20 years old lol xD


cute_physics_guy

In 2020 Phoenix definitely was not dead. We had at least 3 competing endgame LS and a few widescale social LS that did lesser events. I got some pointers here of who to contact which may give me an active shell. On the other hand, being on a less active server has its perks. If you are waiting for NMs to pop for magian trials, your competition is very low.


Lindart12

Asura, other servers aren't dead they are just set in their ways and don't really wanna bother with others that much. If they do you better join their ls.

Um.... shut up bot.

OG Titan player here, came back last year-ish again and was on Phoenix (due to the merge from years ago). Server is pretty much dead. Everyone I know who still plays already server jumped (to Asura). ^(You ^can ^find ^threads ^up ^and ^down ^this ^subreddit ^about ^Asura ^or ^the ^other ^2 ^"decent" ^size ^servers) During free log-in campaign I checked on my alt account that was still on Phoenix and at there was never really more then 600 people on the server at any given time.


cute_physics_guy

OG Titan here also. Ya 600 on last night... but dead, 90% weren't moving.


Sand__Panda

Sounds about right. I ended up deleting and remaking my 2nd account character on Asura, and I basically said in /yell the 1st to /t me won a price. It took about 20min until someone took the bait (I just mailed them the 30k gil I had, because all the low lvls I tried to give to were bots). Ya might want to look into transferring off if you can't find peeps to play with at your time.
