Thanks for posting. The rewards seem great to me, i guess people will complain just to complain

Just because you're not raiding, that does not give you an excuse not to use Grade 8 materia. That's like not upgrading from ilvl 440 gear to 450 gear because "It's not needed" - If you're not using grade 8 materia you're purposefully gimping yourself. Any extra you dont need can be sold for gil.
You already get exp, story, and something to do as a baseline in beast tribes, and as you rank up you're going to get a mount (for FREE mind you, unlike old beast tribe mounts where you needed to buy them for 200k gil each), emotes, minions, crafting matts, orchestrion rolls and furniture. I think as far as mostly braindead 3 quests a day go the rewards are rather generous. Like really what else do you want? Raid level weapons? come on.

Add on that you can also sell the VII/VIII materia for a pretty good amount. Myself I sold a stack of 70 VIII battle materia on the MBand got about 700K off of it. Stuff I was never going to use for my main raiding job and I can always get more.

I don't raid and rarely hunt (I'll jump in a passing hunt train if they're recruiting, but I don't watch the PF looking for one and haven't joined any linkshells). I have half a bag full of grade 7 and 8 materia, after gemming most of my gear, even for jobs I rarely ever play. This expansion drowns you in materia.

"To your side" implies another minion, but then, horn items are usually mounts..

At least 2 of the beast tribe quests involve you riding a fairly large porxie as a quest mount. We have been getting Beast Tribe mount previews during dailies as far back as 2.1 with the Sylph and Amalj'aa.

I'm personally content with the rewards myself. Tiny bit bummed this round doesn't seem to come with a dance/emote, but I'll live :p

I'd rather sit on any excess tokens so I'll have them to spend on potential Allied rewards in the far future than spend a single one on materia.

But I'll probably end up spending them all on macarons anyway.
I wish more of the assets were available as furniture.
