Hello everyone, I am Zelarous. I have been looking around for something kind of old school but not many places offer that kind of experience. I was searching away and happened to come across this. Anyways, I have never played FFXI but I have always been a huge Final Fantasy fan in general. In other words I am going to have no idea what I am doing, but hopefully I will have fun doing it. I look forward to meeting others and hope to have some fun. See you guys in game!

Welcome to FFXI! As a long-time Final Fantasy fan I think you're going to like it, so many subtle or obvious throwbacks to previous FF games in FFXI. But for some crazy reason SE decided that bombs should be WEAK to fire in FFXI, where bombs traditionally absorbed/resisted fire damage in every other FF game. Quite mystifying.

Welcome to Final Fantasy XI! The game is indeed old school. If you would like a group to do new stuff with, I'd be happy to get you a linkpearl to GoldSaucer. We like to help new people out.

Is your in game name Zelarous as well?
