Server Info
- The Firewall is Cisco Meraki with 500G state full throughput.
- The Switching is Cisco Meraki Gig switching.
- Hyper-V host in place and will be running Gameserver and Webserver VMs.
- No, we do not have 256 individual VMs running and never will. That is pointless, stupid, and a waste of perfectly good resources.
- Hard drive storage system I/O is operating with 15k RPM HDDs in a RAID 10 array.
- CPU is running 24 cores at 2.5Ghz
- 32 GB of DDR3 RAM operating at 1333 Mhz
- Sorry folks, unlimited RAM does not exist despite what the slider in VMWare tells you.
- Network throughput from the firewall to the server is operating with 4 1G NIC’s running into a 10G vSwitch and adapters.
Server Rules
All players should read this.
Can I transfer from another server?
Yes! This guide shows you how to export your character and create a character transfer request.
Multi-boxing / dual boxing
Yes you can run multiple accounts/characters at the same time, except in Dynamis and Limbus areas (serious bugs involved there).
However you need to be aware that you will at random run into difficulties doing things like missions and quests while you do this. These are not mistakes in our server's scripts, but a side effect of the socket and session handling common to all FFXI private servers. Sometimes some of your characters will not have progress updated while others will, or one of your characters won't get a key item added. This will force you to repeat steps you already did, and possibly get your progress stuck until a GM can intervene.
Players Online?
How many players are online right now?
Final Fantasy XI Install & Setup
To start playing you will need to install PlayOnline, Final Fantasy XI and the Ashita launcher(Preferred) Or Windower.

Using the custom command $ah you can access the Auction house from anywhere in game!
Auction House Auto-Buy
Certain items will be automatically purchased for a fixed price by the AH-Bot. For example, when you finish using lower level gear, just sell it on the Auction House. If the price meets the fixed buy back price, AH-Bot will buy it back at predetermined times. See Bronze Subligar for example.
How do I get around?
- All Outposts are unlocked. Use the Teleporter NPCs around Vana'diel to travel quickly.
- Home Point Teleporting is enabled. After reaching a Home Point you can then teleport there from any other Home Point. (Note: Favorites list is not currently working.)
- Use a Warp Ring to get back to your home point.
How do I level up?
- Use Fields of Valor Pages & Tomes together with a Chariot Band to maximize your experience points.
How do I setup a Cure alt?
- Cure Please is an approved app for setting up a cure bot. See this video guide for setup help.
How do I find out about weather?
- Use the weather reporter NPCs found around Vana'diel. This is useful when unlocking the Summoner job.
Content
What is different from retail / What is working or not working?
