There's a discussion already running in the Gold Saucer subforum: http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...Fashion-Report

And I got the reference for the ring immediately, though just I finished Heavensward two days ago so it's been very much in my mind. I'm surprised and a bit disappointed that they would do that for a minigame you access so much earlier than either the dungeons that drop the rings OR the story content to interpret the hint. New players won't even have met him at the point when they unlock this.
