When are we getting old PvP rewards back?

It was brought up a while ago by the devs that bringing back the rewards from old seasons of PvP (mounts at the very least, such as Fylgja) would happen "at some point". When is this going to happen? It's been over 2 years since the first FL season, can they at least be reminded of this promise they made?

I second this notion.

I am deeply upset over the lack of emote "Determined" being a S1 PvP Reward, or it's item name, Ballroom Etiquette - Persuasive Perseverance.
It saddens me a great deal and I've been patient enough for it to show up elsewhere especially now with Dawntrail's release, but NOTHING.

When this new revamped PvP stuff happened, NO ONE had any idea how to progress the tiers and if anyone did know they didn't tell. Combine that with how dreary pvp actually is and you have a recipe for many unhappy players.
The amount of time I've put into PvP simply because of the stupid FOMO that XIV pushes is ridiculous. I wouldn't want anyone of my friends who hate PvP no matter the game to be forced to play a mode excessively just because of FOMO.
Many friends who refused to do it to get the /linkshell emote and I don't blame them, I just hoped that Square wouldn't be tardy about making them accessible through other means.

You do not need FOMO to motivate players.

Make Determined accessible, PLEASE, PLEASE PLEASE NOW.
We've waited long enough to be able to do that one emote that we've seen since forever.
Because this is just disheartening and saddening of the maximum degree ;;

This is how you do:
Take the previous seasons reward; And put them in the Trophy Crystals Vendor.
PROBLEM, SOLVED.

Thank you for coming to my ted talk.

Wasn't this just something Mr Happy said but he didn't really know, he was just making assumptions?

I wouldn't even mind if the emotes and minions showed up on the cash shop at some point, even if it would be preferable for them to be buyable with an absurd number of trophy crystals.

No, they specifically said in the 67th PLL that this would be a feature they would add. That was over 2 years ago at this point

I don't really know how to respond to this other than each series lasts for an entire patch cycle so around 4 months. Thats more than enough time and a daily frontline for even half of that will max out your malmstone. Using the argument of FOMO is disingenuous at best and malicious at worst, and only serves to spread misinformation among players who don't regularly engage with pvp. Also, it was clearly stated to be a battle pass system across live letters. if you didn't know that playing games leveled it for you i can only assume you were just not familiar with battle passes as a system.

In regards to the delay to rewards being made accessible again, i can only assume square's decision was to wait until the 7.1 rework to release them(cc/malmstones came out in 6.1 so it would be a whole expansions wait) in order to make them semi-exclusive rewards for those patches. This is definitely pretty unnecessary as the length of time is pointlessly long as many have stated. I'd much rather see a rolling release, where a reward is added to the shop 2 seasons after its retired, i.e S1 reward is purchasable when S3 is released

Honestly, the battle past system wasn't needed to begin with. Folks could had tolerated pvp the same if they were added in the shops. I hardly see a difference between the trophy crystals and the wolf marks. I'm still maxed on both if I'm not stocking up on materia.

I hope they didn't forget about this... It's pretty annoying to miss some good reward just because my job require me to be away from the game for 3 to 4 months sometime even longer.

I would appreciate an update on this, Creative Studio III.

I still think this was some misunderstanding of being about to claim old seasons rewards.
Because you can, as long as you've earned them and didn't hit the buttons yet. But the ability to even look at your old malmstones goes away the moment you claim your last reward from them.

So you can indeed earn old rewards.
Just not if you didn't earn them.

And honestly their lack of clarifying over the years has just made me more resolute in this interpretation.

Yeah i hate how they always just create new currency and let it die... no i dont want materia, give some new stuff, add the old one...

Normally each patch should have some rewards added at release and some later mid-patch... but nah let us overcap the currency...

I have over 60,000 trophy crystals unclaimed. A new expansion would have been a great time to add all the previous series rewards to the shop, but apparently that would have been too much work when they were trying to do the least amount of work for DawnTrail.
