Yes i belive is just one free teleport. I haven't see any MMO that give something really usefull for a one year anniversary for free. All this give me give me people is just annoying. Free teleport for life yeah keep dreaming.

Or unless it works like the 'Reduced Rates' Free Company action already in the game, which has the effect last for 24 hours? This is just my speculation though so I'm most probably wrong. :p

It's either going to be a one time use, or a re-usable item with a stupidly insane cooldown. There is no way possible it would be that cool as to be free ports forever. Just look at how company housing came out as such a huge gil sink the whole world of Eorzea could fall into it like a black hole.

Usable once every couple of hours even sounds too sweet. We're probably looking at a free teleport once every 6 hours if we're extremely lucky. Hell.. 18 hours sounds about right. Make that 24.. Yeah.. once every 24 hours is probably definitally it.

ok ok.. last time. I'm gonna bet on once a week here because it sounds stupid and extreme and therefore is probably right.

i don't know...i kinda like the idea of "hey, you have been playing for a year now! here's a ticket that lets you teleport anywhere for free ad infinitum!"

disrupts a gil sink, but housing is coming soon anyway.

The reward is the Odin Minion. Teleport Ticket is irrelevant.

The Aetheryte Ticket is either going to be the best or the worst "subscription reward" we've gotten so far. In the worst case player's will feel cheated and angry over such a lame "non-reward." (200-500gil /joy) At best we are looking at free Teleport's forever. Something of this magnitude would have player's purchasing a "6 month subscription" just to obtain this reward earlier. Money in SE's pocket.

In either case I don't see this reward as irrelevant.

I agree that this would make SE loads of money with 6-7 month players buying the next 6 months early and even new players jumping in directly at 12 months.
