What did the code slip from FFXIII to get the Asuran Armguards look like?

Do my eyes deceive me or is that really +15 Gathering at level 1?

Aye 'tis at that.

I'll have to see what other gear has, but they could be useful for DoL for a while.

Not much so. The item is equippable at level 1 (yay!) and it lists the Item Level as 11, so it's overpowered for a level 1 item, but the first Hands slot item which also has +15 Gathering is unsurprisingly the level 11 Hard Leather Wristguards.

So you'll either replace them at lv11 with Hard Leather Wristguards +1 (idk stats on those tho), or lv16 with Goatskin Wristguards (+18 Gathering and two Materia slots).

Luckily I have Garlond Goggles code which as the EXP gain bonus which will be great for Arcanist.

I'd love to get the Armguards just cause they look cool.

I didn't get that one. I did have Hermes Shoes, but they didn't appear last weekend - presumably because I'm no longer paying for my FFXI subscription? Anyone else get them ok?

Time to reply/send another SE support ticket!

I have the Onion Helm and Hermes shoes, but when I forgot the FFXIII code for the armguards was emailed to me I didn't regester it, I'll get on that as soon as possible (if it will still take the code.)

Do you still have an active FFXI subscription?

Enhanced movement in cities seems a-ok! http://xivdb.com/?item/3744/Hermes'-Shoes

The Hermes Shoes was a reward given to players that had an active FFXIV Service Account and an active FFXI Playonline Service Account both within the same SE Account back in V1.0. The item would only show up on characters created in V1.0 at a time when both accounts were active.

SE made it clear in announcements made for the termination of subscription billing for FFXIV back in September 2012 that all promotions involving having both FFXI and FFXIV active like this would end on September 29, 2012, and it would appear to me that they do not intend to do this kind of promotion again.

Since there was no registration code involved in this particular promotional item, it is my belief that no one will receive a new version of the Hermes Shoes in this way in FFXIV:ARR. If you happen to still have the Hermes Shoes in the inventory of a V1.0 character as of the Save Maintenance on October 31, 2012, they should still be there when you pick up the character in FFXIV:ARR. But that will be the only way you will have them any more from this promotion.
