My early XIV leveling crew: Lotus Solvine and Keith Dragoon, whom I both met in FFXI years prior.
Seasonal costumes and decorations in 1.0 were pretty fun. Pictured in the last capture is one of the first two friends I made in XIV: Garrett Little (the other being Hoolie Who).
I probably made a great impression on Garrett early on.
And Mr. Who as well. Here, you can just picture him thinking "DAT ASS."
Our linkshell had a default hang out in Uldah. We were pretty territorial. Often, shenanigans happened here!
It was fun hunting down the open spawn NMs and taking them down with the group.
The raids on the beastmen strongholds were so much fun! They took all the man and firepower you could muster and made for a great all-inclusive linkshell event. It was such a rush to push through to the bosses and then knock them out for the chance at some sweet, sweet loot.
When my linkshell started attempting Dzemael Darkhold again after I joined, it was such a pleasure to be the first tank to bring the team through it. The dungeon's bosses were fun, but I remember thinking the popular strategy of running like pansies through the dungeon till nq mobs despawn was a bummer.
The Ifrit Hard battle was so much fun to tank as a Marauder. My linkshell was rather awesome and we made sure that everyone got a chance to get the win and, if they stuck around and weren't a douche, they got the weapon(s) of their choice.
