Using a Fantasia before 3.0 Maintenance

[Luneyune]

Hello friends,

I'm just wondering if it's safe to use a fantasia the night before 3.0. I'd really like to log into Heavensward with my Au Ra, but I'm not sure if it's the best idea to use the fantasia right before a maintenance.

Thoughts?

depending on the maintenance it can tend to not allow you to change yourself so you'd have to submit a ticket to SE to get a new one. :3 since this is a expansion it would be more then likely the fantasia useage may be invalidated.

the best thing to do to assure you don't lose a fantasia is to just wait until early access Log in use the fantasia then log out and change, if you don't want to log out enjoy your character for a day longer :3

My guess is that using a fantasia flips an "off" flag to "on" on your character, meaning it's something specifically saved to your character when you log out, meaning it *should* be safe from maintenances, even big ones like 3.0.

My second guess is that there are a lot of people who are going to be doing this and that there will be a big revolt and reimbursements having to be made if it *doesn't* work this way.

If you're worried enough to ask this on the forums, I would just wait.

I used it on the day that fantasia was unstackable and still haven't changed it yet. So gotta wait and see.

Well, I bought a Fantasia in December so I could change my Behemoth character to an Au Ra (though it turns out that I could have just spent the $10 on something else). Though I've "used" it, I haven't finalized changing the character's appearance. She's still waiting to become an Au Ra in 10 days.

My GF has used Fantasia on 2 of her characters just to keep the option open to change her characters at a later date, does this mean she will lose these when the expansion starts or would she retain these?

When I used a fantasia way BAAAACK when I started playing, I only used it to save space on inventory in-game.
The game tells you at the lobby "hey, you used a fantasia here, wanna do the editing now or later?" and if you say later, it just asks you the next time you pick that character :/

BUT, the HW is right up the corner so better wait if you can wait =-=a

Hi Luneyune,

You can use fantasia before the maintenance. You'll be able to change your appearance once the early access starts. Also, if anyone is curious about when you can start playing as Au Ra, you'll be able to change to the Au Ra from early access!
