    Question on today's 1.0 character transfer post

    So they just posted "news" on transferring your 1.0 character. What it didn't reference was if you'd be able to import the characters made with the benchmark. Anyone know about this?

    Transferring Character Data from Version 1.0 (08/15/2013)

    If you're wondering if the character data you have created will be usable in the game client, check this page out http://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/benchmark/

    It clearly shows (at the bottom of the page) a screenshot with the save prompt reading "Save appearance data? This data can be used in both the benchmark and the game"

    I hope this answers your question ^_^

    So do you mean using this character data specifically with the character transfer (as opposed to creating a new character)?

    i would guess you copy and past the character file from the benchmark to the actual path the client uses for character save data. thats what im gonna do since im gonna go highlander.

    if it dont work just get some paper and write down everything in the editor.

    They really aren't. People just keep saying they are.

    ARR should look in the proper folder by default. Just like the benchmark looked in the proper place for phase 3 and 1.0 appearance data. Phase 3 also looked at the right place for 1.0 appearance data.

    Are YOU a 1.0 player? Have you passed you legacy trial and know you qualify for Legacy status but haven't began Beta testing yet? Well, your in LUCK, this little quirk is for you! BD

    Legacy Chocobos
    Characters who met the requirements of the Legacy Campaign will receive a legacy chocobo whistle via the Mog Delivery Service starting in beta test phase 4.

    By using the legacy chocobo whistle, a legacy chocobo will be added under the Mounts section of the Actions and Traits interface. The legacy chocobo can be summoned by setting the icon to your hotbar.
