hmm I haven't actually seen anyone in the test server sign up for ballista yet. I'd thought for a test server there'd be alot of people on here. Unless there's some that only does ballista outside the test server?

Most of the people that log on to the test server aren't interested in Ballista nor aware of the attempts to push Ballista there.

I've personally tried to push the idea through various forums, and at one point kept one of my characters logged in to the test server to check if anyone might actually show up to play. We've played official matches on the test server, however, the people that played were regulars who are currently located on a Ballista server anyway..

Most of the people that play Ballista on Lakshmi and Carbuncle are ps2 and xbox360 players, as well as people who are content with Ballista on their respective server.. so they don't bother.

There's a schedule posted for the official matches (60+99) in this thread, starting today all the way to the 23rd.

Undine is the perfect opportunity for Ballistars who aren't situated on a Ballista server to play, but as you can see.. it hasn't really taken off.

Wish SE brought back the official ballista tournament. I always wanted to join a team but by the time i got good at it, all that ended and i missed my chance of getting the blue hat for winning in the official tournament. =/ Also the prizes were nice at the time as well.

I wish this would happen also :(
But.. for a good 5+ years now, anything Ballista related has fallen on deaf ears.

In my opinion, it's up to the players.

re post the Urteil challenge!


I had about 15 challengers who only did the NQ one.

Updated version from when comet was expensive, it has been removed for other prizes:

Just how big is the use of hyper and x-hyper in competitive play nowadays? I've always wanted to see Ballista take off again, but I'm not sure if I would enjoy playing if that's a primary tactic.

Hyper and X-hyper are widely used in competitive play.


To quote Vyii for a moment:
If the newer players—or even more experienced players—are only concentrating on the quarrying technique, then their battle skill will be pathetic and may never improve. The players who have undergone the traditional Ballista regime and treatment (raw combat, hitting and running, vile mouthing, etc.) will have an notable advantage if the item strategy is mastered. If both novices and veterans master this technique, then the deciding factor will be battle skill—with a bit of luck from quarrying. Therefore, the currently skilled players will grow stronger while the weaker players wither. Sounds like economics.

Hello Eviva i was wondering if you are moving to ff14 when they put pvp there on patch 2.0, since it will be a very nice pvp battle system with no time restrictions like ffxi ballista. (Reservations and Capped fixed matches like cap 60 and Diorama)

Hihi :)

I have tried FFXIV in the past, but decided against playing 2 MMORPG at the same time.

I don't think I will necessary move entirely, but I will be interested to see how it compares to the current Ballista in FFXI.

Now i do not mean to be all about server pride i know folks server hop a lot nowdays. I still remember when SE held the first and only Ballista Royale. Let us all not forget that is was Siren server who holds both Japanese and North American ballista royale championship teams, who bested all the servers. Respectfully the Japanese team was Priceless LS, and the North American team was TheMysticalOrder LS. Give Siren some credit Evviva and thank you for keeping the Ballista community still rocking!!

Siren is the server that originated the way we play to this day, it was the absolute server with paragon players.

Having played Ballista on Siren a few years ago(my name was Oranges). I have nothing but good things to say! I met amazing pioneer players like Barlog, Uruz and Teishi. Siren was consequently the server that I realized how Ballista is meant to be played.

Apologies Lordgrim for not giving Siren recognition earlier, thanks for posting =)

Siren is the birth place of Ballista Revolution.
