so, i started on Bahamut waaaay back in 2004, and once FFXI started to get more popular, SE offered a free server migration to one of their newer expansion servers, which for me, was Remora, because Bahamut was getting rediculously overpopulated. over the years, the overall population has declined greatly, and now its gotten to the point where on a good night during the week, theres around 900 people on (with a good majority of those people, 500 or so, at level cap, only participating in end of the line activities), and on weekends its about 1500ish. i dont really have a problem with doing stuff with nothing but level 75 players, but i also dont want to have to astral burn all my jobs to 75, and i really dont want to have to sit around in a lower level area looking for party members for 4 hours.

MY QUESTION IS: which server out there has a pretty decent sized population? im looking to migrate to a new server, as mine is dying out pretty rapidly and my end game shell just disbanded (Apathy and Exodus pretty much exploit all good end game ***on this server). for those of you out there that could provide me with some info on this, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thank You

Pretty much, all the servers are dying down. It's time for SE to start combining servers to keep up the population. Otherwise things are gonna be dull, lol. Anyways, Fenrir is about the same, 1200 for NA and 1500 for JP primetimes.

There's usually a pretty decent amount of people on Fairy all the time. I don't have much trouble at all getting lower lvl parties.

As for people, I'd say atleast 1.3-1.4 on weekdays. For endgame, we have a lot of lolshells here, but a nice handful of elites. I can easily recommend you to any endgame you're interested in: Dynamis, Limbus, Sea, Sky, Einherjar, HNM, Salvage.
