Quick FFXIV Essentials
Aureus Knights (AKS) was one of the largest and most active guilds during the launch of FFXIV 1.0 and our community has deep roots in FFXI. Final Fantasy is part of our DNA and Square's rereleasing FFXIV is an event that has created unprecedented excitement in the guild (especially given how much we've been loving the game since Beta Phase 1).
We will be focusing heavily on PVE content (although not fully at the expense of PvP activities, we just feel that the game's strength will lie in its PvE content) and doing everything from casual leveling to end game dungeon and raid progression. We are a guild who thrives on well run and organized events and we feel that the wide range of content in FFXIV gives us a perfect platform to be at our best as a guild. Don't miss out!
We will be running both a Grand Company and Linkshell to ensure we maximize social contact and cooperation amongst our members.
A little more on who we are:
Aureus Knights is a guild of friends that began playing MMO's back in 1997 with Ultima Online. As a group of friends we'd go game to game, guild to guild playing the games we loved. In late 2006 though, we felt it best to build our own community. For us a community differs from a guild, because we are not built specifically for just one game, instead we travel thru various games together, and we found that for us, it makes us a much stronger community for it.
Aureus Knights is built on the principles of Respect, Honor, Loyalty and Friendship. Rule number one for The Knights is to treat people as you’d want to be treated. We use a fairly flat system of leadership where we have officers who are responsible for the day to day running of the guild but in the end they are just members – we are all equals here. This guild exists for its members and not for any other reason; we have no drama here, no power trips and none of that type of baggage that sometimes comes with guilds.
We are a family friendly guild that puts real life and family ahead of our games; We are a serious guild who loves to work end game but we will not do it at the cost of our membership's personal lives.
What we offer our members
The AKS core group and officers are knowledgeable gamers who enjoy helping other players. So right off the bat you have a good core group of people to play with who want to make sure that all AKS members feel welcome and enjoy the games they play to the fullest extent. Other benefits provided by AKS:
- A well-run guild with an experienced and dedicated officer team
- Organized events on a weekly basis
- A fun guild - everything we do is oriented around having fun
- A drama free environment. We are structured from the ground up to be drama free
- Forums and Ventrilo. Neither are mandatory but both are great for building great and lasting relationships
- Social media tools. We are on Facebook, Twitter, Steam, and XFire and we know how to use them to enhance our member's experience
- An awards system to reward our top contributing members
- A casual chapter for non-MMO gaming. 'Cause sometimes it's nice to mix it up
- ... and a whole lot more

Hey folks,
I just wanted to pop over and say that we've selected the Gilgamesh server! Anyone planning on playing on Gilgamesh we'd love to have you check us out and if we are a fit we'd love to have you join up!
Recently joined and so far I've been having a blast communicating with everyone on the forums. Everyone seems to be friendly and helpful towards each other.
Having a group of good people surrounding you makes whatever activity you are doing more enjoyable.
Same here. I can't wait to start playing with these guys!
Open beta shouldn't be too far away woohoo!
Hmm your avatar looks familiar....
LOL
Starting to notice an involuntary twitch. Must Level! Must Grind! Must Craft!
At least the time has been flying by. It's been fun killing time getting to meet everyone on our forums. Lots of stellar intros from our new members.
So true! If it wasn't for the AKS forums, I wouldn't be chatting about FFXIV at all.
