Hello everyone. This is FFXIV Producer/Director Yoshida.



By way of apology, we’ll be sending all players with active subscriptions, including internet café-only subscriptions, four pots of metallic gold dye via the Moogle Delivery Service. (This applies to full accounts only. Unfortunately, players with free trial accounts will not receive this letter.)

You are the best !! Keep it up !! This is by far the best MMORPG and dev team I have ever had the pleasure of being around !!

I think what I find most shocking about this, is after playing FFXI for a good 9 years and FFXIV since its original launch in 2010, I dont recall them ever sending compensation for a programming error (or for any other reason for that matter, and I don't consider human error one of them where someone lost their account to being hacked). My memory may be a bit off over the past decade but I'm pretty sure SE has never done this before, so its actually extremely welcomed. However its sad to find out you cant dye furnishings Metallic Silver, was hoping to dye a few pieces in and around my house with it to see if the color schemes would match better.

Why are you giving players that may not even have retainers, nevermind fully leveled and geared retainers free loot? You just singlehandedly destroyed the entire rarity of Gold Dye for all the crafters in the game, Thanks for nothing. So much for selling anything dyed gold...

It;s only 4 pots. And as for why I assume it;s because they have no way of

A) knowing who has retainers
B) How many of those retainers are geared (I being one who hasen;t gotten them at 50 yet)
and C) of those retainers how many are sent on Quick explorations.

Also the 4 pots are only got for one set and odds are that some might want more than 4 pieces dyed, there's also free trial accounts

Ok i hve 4 retainers about 100 ventures a day 500 ventures and you give 4 pots of dye not to mention that will make it worthless on the market give everyone 500 ventures

I bet you didn't even know beforehand Metallic Gold was bugged. You don't need any more compensation than you're getting. Also getting 100 ventures is as easy as going out and killing a handful of A ranks and the occasional S rank. I'm sorry you find clicking "Quick Exploration" every hour such an arduous task, I'm so sorry.

You guys are burying the lead here...look at Yoshi's post count! It's a sign!

How about i get those ~300-350 ventures back i tried finding them instead of a measly 4 pots that EVERYONE, not only those with retainers that actually can find them, gets. Or the ~50-60k seals i blew on that and rather could've saved for 2.4 for new stuff that is probably comming. Or a couple 100 shards for the stuff i crafted to get those seals?

Quite disappointed that it took you 5 days to find that out. Now i don't really want them anymore either if everyone and there grandmother is running around as Powerranger Gold...

Anyways - Thank you announcing it pre Hotfix, 2 days more to send my retainers back to useful stuff ('-')/

Exactly what I was thinking......
