Rewards and purchases:

• Tonberry outfit
• "Frighten" emote
• Hatching-tide 2022 poster
• Pa-paya Demastered orchestrion roll

all the potatos are gonna love the tonberry outfit, cant say anyone else will

also pa-paya demastered? i dont like the sound of that i hope they didnt butcher one of my favorite tracks

Tonberry costume doesn't excite me at all, but the shorts might look cute. So long as they actually remain shorts on a female character, anyway.

I actually like the rewards on display, but I wish they'd give us a tonberry knife as an actual weapon and not an invisible CUL item. Bit of a wasted opportunity.

.....Did they just cross-circuit Easter with Halloween?

We'll have to wait and see!

Keep in mind that tonberries are established to be not actually unreasonable monsters here.

Yes!

Halloweaster!

Best rewards ever.

Mascot of full separates is an absolute W. Looks like even the head is separate so we can wear the giant robe on its own. You can equally just plop the silly Tonberry head on any existing outfit. Another set for cinqtuple legends going into the 6.4 raid tier to world prog and look ridiculous while doing it. Say what you will about content longevity, Endwalker has been on point with event rewards and is still going strong.

As for whether or not this is Halloeaster, kinda? Tonberries are creepy creatures in most Final Fantasy titles, but I think they fit just fine with Easter and the event storyline will clarify any confusion. Tonberries are also not just creepy in XIV (if you've played the SCH storyline.) Clearly this supposed to be a creepy theme tho, what with the /Frighten emote. Curious to see what the full thing looks like. Could be a trolly emote similar to /Slap.

I hope we get egg related rewards for All Saints Wake.
