Is Price an Object for the Lunar Whale?

I'll buy it if there's another feature announced during the next Fan Fest that hits all the right notes for me.

it looks like a bad dragon toy....i mean if that's your thing, that's your thing.... but as it stands i ain't paying no matter the cost.

<------ Fusoya here HAS to have the Lunar whale!

Chocobo carriage was like $50 aud
this whale gonna be more than that

name checks out indeed XD

As long as the whale comes with the minions, I'll be happy to pay at least $50. If not then I'm not sure cause while it's cool and I'd love to swarm the skies with friends, I personally don't fancy it (gasp I know blasphemy)

The problem with the lunar whale isn't the price—it's that it's ugly like the current whale mount :cool:

Don't @ me.

Personally, I think it looks kinda cute but that's just me.

The Lunarians were a highly advanced society with advanced lifespans, magic, and crystals who were originally from the fifth planet of the solar system. An unexplained calamity struck their planet, destroying it, causing them to escape on a red asteroid similar in shape to our normal moon. Knowing the blue planet to be habitable, they set their moon into a stable orbit, and put all of their citizens into a preservative hibernation, as it was largely agreed upon that they should wait until the Earthlings had evolved enough to co-exist peacefully with them before they could colonize parts of Earth.

One among their number wasn't content to wait, and wanted to wipe out humanity so that the Lunarians could inhabit the Earth right away. He constructed the Tower and Giant of Babil, but was forced into slumber by the only other Lunarians who were not in hibernation, and then sealed into that slumber by a set of crystals of Light and Dark.

Anybody want to take bets on whither there is an Ancient sleeper colony on the Moon and Fandaniel's real goal is to clear the land for these colonists' new homes as opposed to destruction for destruction's sake?

four-seater account-wide mount: $35.99

So, it has gone roughly $6 from 1-seater to 2-seater and another $6 from 2-seater to 4-seater.

If the pattern holds, my guess would be:

eight-seater fan fest (account-wide?) mount: $41.99

https://store.finalfantasyxiv.com/ff...us/product/779

It's $42.00!
It's also temporarily on sale for $35.70.

So it pretty much holds to the pattern.

€28 and €33. It's was less what i expected. €5 for the minons.

Account wide Lunar Whale! Hell yeah! /o/ Got it!

Pulling at my collar about the minions though. On the one hand, I love all of the characters from IV. On the other, they're just minions. Hnnngh!

Just waiting for delivery!

Yeah and until I see them in game i will leave them, they didn't look so cute on the store page.

Still think the whale itself is, well, not appealing. The price is a surprisingly low.The minions are great, though, and I'm very happy with the price. Picked up all 3 right away.

It has begun, we are trying to build a Whale Wall on Gilgamesh.

Considering whales is the term for people who spend on games like there's no tomorrow, I think SE may be having a little chuckle with this mount.

True, but they still aren't wrong. They weren't very subtle about it when they announced purchasable digital goodies at the end of the showcase.

But these are just the items you would get for either attending fanfest with a physical ticket (mount) or paying for the digital ticket (minions).

Normally the ticket to see the Fanfest was always 30 dollars, additionally they gave you the gifts. They have set the mount to 35 the same if they had given it away with the virtual ticket.

They all go on the Mogstation sooner rather than later in most cases. I'm not judging anyone (heck, I bought the whale too) but even I can see it. lol

No, the mount comes with the physical ticket, which have been 130+. Not that they gave out mounts in the first 2 fanfests.

I've mentioned it in the past, but I don't actually own any of the Mogstation mounts lol. And I didn't get a ticket for the 3rd fanfest, which is why I don't have the fenrir.
