I'm finally leveling melee jobs for the first time, and the increased amount of levels you have to solo, and how you gain levels now much faster than you gain combat skill, makes it very difficult to survive. Not being on a mage job means I can only bring one inexpensive reraise with me, maybe two if I eat a scroll before I leave town. New players get infinite reraise during the solo leveling range, free with purchase. I have to spend even more than I have already (on buying the same thing). It feels like this situation:

As stated in a prior post, you are not paying for the hat when you buy this collection. You are paying for the collection, the hat is an extra bonus. No one is going to debate that some people are going to be angry that they cannot obtain this item because "They are long time Customers" because this item was not intended to be obtained by "Long time Customers". It is to attract new players that need a boost getting to level 30 so they can get a piece of the real action that this game has come to be, which is Abby.

So all in all, everyone please stop your complaining that SE doesn't care about you. If they wanted you to have the item, you would have the item. Most of are you stating you don't even need the item because you are 30+ on all of your jobs anyway. YOU ARE JUST ANGRY SOMEONE IS GETTING SOMETHING YOU AREN'T. Get over it and deal with it.
