    You're not spending $20 for the hat. You're spending $20 for PlayOnline, FINAL FANTASY XI Online, Rise of the Zilart, Chains of Promathia, Treasures of Aht Urhgan, Wings of the Goddess, A Crystalline Prophecy, A Moogle Kupo d'Etat, A Shantotto Ascension, Vision of Abyssea, Scars of Abyssea, and Heroes of Abyssea.

    The hat is a free bonus 'thank you' for buying the collection.

    If you're buying stuff you already have just for a bonus 'thank you' gift, you have only yourself to blame.

    For those that don't know the Destrier Beret is a bonus item for buying the ultimate abyssea edition, but when using the code you may only select 1 character to give the hat to. Since the system to obtain the hat is now already in place the only fix is to make it sendable to our alternate characters.
    Bolded for emphasis.

    This is a bonus. It is not what you're paying for. Only getting it on one character is, I'm pretty sure, something SE intended. It's not broken, so it doesn't need a fix.

    Could it use an improvement? Probably. But that's not the same as a fix.

    Because people who already bought all the expansions get a statue of Prishe automatically. That's a reward for 'loyal long time customers'.

    Adoulin is installed but still not lighting up on your title screen? Here's what to do:
    Go to https://secure.square-enix.com/account/app/svc/login?cont=account and log in, then Select Service >>> PlayOnline / FINAL FANTASY XI >>> Add a service account (blue button) >>> input expansion software registration code.

    Except the people buying the Collection also get the statue. They get the extra item, plus the item we get, and they pay less total. It's a slap in the face to people that didn't wait for expansions.

    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.

    Would it harm you in some way if this item could be shared between main and alternate characters? This is just a request that SE change it so those who buy the collection can share it among their main and there alts on the same account, not an unreasonable request. Almost none of us are upset we need to pay $20 for a special item, many people in this thread bought tidal talismans and soundtracks for the limited edition items, we would just like this item, since it is technically tied more to practical use than the others be shareable among mains and alts on the same account.

    Man, I was 1rst to sign this after OP. Of course I stand behind the OP's cause. I just don't stand for the complaining about above stated.
