    Good news!

    I just wanted to let you know that the team is planning to implement an NPC in patch 2.3 that will allow you to swap gender-specific gear!

    Wonderful! Now all we need is an option for name changes and Fantasia will finally be useful!

    Name changes aren't always best for MMOs. This is one way that scammers and sellers can continue to roam free in the world, depending on how they're tracked by the companies. I know on other games they refuse to implement name changes due to the reasons of scammers and sellers.

    Yes but the option to change gender is literally pointless if a name reflects the opposite gender. It renders Fantasia useless for those of us who want to swap genders, or simply do not like our names.

    I'd be happy with it being a paid function. Charge me 15 bucks, I'd pay it to change my name when/if I swap gender.

    Also I would assume that there would be an internal log noting the history of characters created/renamed on every account. A character changing names should not be an issue on SE's end.

    Same, I'd have no problem paying for it too.

    To be honest i'm not sure how name changes would be an advantage to scammers and sellers unless Squenix implemented a really bizarre way of tracking characters and accounts. Most games the account and character is assigned a unique identifier string in the database that is never changed and is not visible to players. When a character is reported the report references that specific character and account. So someone could change their name ten times between ten reports and to the GMs it would show up as ten flags on that character/account.

    Anyway, glad to see that i should be able to get my Cascadier pieces now.
    Hopefully i'll eventually be able to redeem the Lightning bits as well.

    It's odd that you replied to this one and not this one;

    However, I updated the OP. Hopefully the lightning set is included! Thank you for the addition.

    Please, make sure that yukatas and other event items are included too !!

    The Calamity Salvager doesn't sell them, neither the Lightning gear... or at least didn't see it when I checked.
