Any chance we could get a new "Legacy-mark" for the pre-Heavensward Event? =D

The only thing with the item is it better be worth while or pure vanity for the design. Don't give us something like those job rings from the achievements, the thing about XI's rings and earrings was that they were the BiS for awhile after they came out, some continued to be BiS long after the next expansion. Yes I know anyone can beat the 2.0 Story Arc but still given that is like 75 quests or so (it's a literally crap ton) and it will get harder to do the longer the game is out because less people will want/need to do it. Just like in XI.

Not true, my 1.0 Character doesn't have the mark.

They should.

All 1.0 characters ported to ARR from 1.0 will have the "Meteor Survivor" / Legacy tattoo, regardless of whether they paid for 3 months of sub time or not. The two things that weren't part of the "Legacy Campaign" were the tattoo and the special cutscenes 1.0 players get in ARR. The tattoo just required bringing character data from 1.0 over to 2.0. The cutscenes required you get to a certain point in the Meteor/Nael Van Darnus storyline (the mission to destroy the Lunar Transmitter.)

I know this because I brought my 1.0 character over to 2.0 when it launched. I didn't pay for 90 days of sub time and thus didn't qualify for the Legacy bonuses (although I did complete the main storyline with Nael towards the end of the game's life). My character has the tattoo. I also have access to the special cutscenes.

I do not have the Legacy Chocobo, the cheaper sub fee, or my name in the credits.

All that being said, I don't agree with letting people who played ARR get a special mark or tattoo for playing before the expac (because ARR isn't shutting down in favor of a completely new game), although I would definitely support players getting an item that denotes that (similar to the Dalamud Horn or the Deity Rings.)

There was a bug in 2.0 actually that caused any new characters on a 1.0 account to also get tattoos lol.

And then they "fixed" it, so the people like me who had old characters but wanted to start over have the Legacy Chocobo but not the tattoo, even though we had it in beta. Kind of wish they'd ignored that "but I want to be a specialer snowflake" complaint and left it how it was.

I still get people asking to see my tat now and again :/

It's amazing to see the amount of animosity and amount of biased and misinformed people in this thread, coming out of their hiding hole to either brag, attack or insult a very simple idea created out of honest sentiments and its supporters while ignoring the many valid arguments written(both for and against) to support this conversation as a whole. This forum community is sickening.

Lore wise, it wouldn't be far fetched to do another tattoo thing.. We're not getting another event on the scale of the whole Bahamut thing (most likely ...), but the whole Midgardsormr story continuation could easily include getting visually marked one way or another.

Isn't this what veteran reward are for?

Lol if so what about me? I've been here longer then 90% of the ppl playing (1.0 bate) and when I lost my ACC I lost everything and had to start all over 3 months ago. I can no longer show ppl that I've been here from the start Q.Q

Yeah, I really didn't mean for this to become some intensely heated debate. I just thought, giving 1.0 players was such a cool bonus, why not do something for each expansion? Don't repeat the same things, obviously, but like I said, just kind of giving each "generation" of players their own little signature. The 1.0 bonus will likely always remain the coolest -- and certainly rarest -- but adding additional things for those big events would only add to the game.

Like I said, I'm not sure exactly *what* said reward should be or anything; when I created this topic, I was actually hoping the conversation would be about that, people tossing around fun, purely-vanity ideas.

Oh, well there's your mistake, right there. Nobody has fun here.

I honestly don't see why not, I have the 1.0 mark and if they want to give me another I'll take it. =o
