    Vanabout rewards are not good enough.

    I never do it, it's too much effort for effectively no reward.

    I would do it if the rewards were actually worth it, they can just be currency rewards from content. Gallifaufry, Reinforcement points, easier way to get a pulse weapon.

    The only players that actually care about it, are trying to get their name on the leaderboard.

    It's really just the limit tier that's still a problem. The limit tier, formerly gold tier, has always been hot garbage.

    A full set of AF+3 is pretty wild for the minimal effort and kupon-Aby is great for the amount of effort. It's all about the amount of work for that minuscule reward.

    2nd that about the AF+3 set. just the time savings of not trading upgrade materials repeatedly makes it worth. On top of that, the +2 & +3 stages are typically way too expensive: excellent gil savings. And you don't need to waste time in Omen on an entire job.

    The first tier of incentives for Vanabout is the costume Axe?

    It was a struggle to bring myself to buy it for 500 login points when it was introduced ....several times!


    ....SE might as well give us an item that grants Signet with 50 charges. The only thing this incentives me to do is .... log off.

    I've long stopped trying to make sense of the rewards (like, experience points at the limit tier... it must be an evil joke so as to make people accidentally choose that, or something like it), but yeah, there are some surprisingly O.K. things too... in certain circumstances.

    For example, I skipped Glavoid and Itzpapalotl and most of Orthrus for the Twashtar by doing it just a bit, but of course it took several bouts, and a few characters on one account...

    They've slowly been making it better, too, with regards to the objectives, and finally even changed the start-time, which I did not think I'd ever see happening!

    Also some partial fixes was made for getting the title, though I still think it's a bit too rough as it is.

    In general, I might say I'm still not a fan, but I suppose it's getting there.

    (And indeed, thanks for the skip-Glavoid-and-stuff. I do hope that item will stay as is (well, can always make it even better)!)

    ...or so the legend says.

    Disagree completely, the rewards are far too good and allow new / returning players to skip half the games progression.
    A full set of AF+3 is completely out of place compared to other other rewards and has no place.

    This is trashy mobile gacha game content and shouldn't even exist, let alone give meaningful rewards.

    I would prefer if they spent dev time on actual content - gacha events like this are not content.
