Any Chance For An Event for Blue Onion Helm?

[Reynhart]

Raven Earrings were an in-game rewards. Onion Helm was from purchasing 1.0 collectors, it's not really the same thing and the debate rages on about whether they should have reissued the Raven Earrings which SE since said they wouldn't do again etc.

Exactly, they had no issue putting that reward back then, so something that only required additionnal money shouldn't be that big of a deal. That's why I would be ok with having it on the Mogstation.

as far as the Onion Helm went, this is the reason actually SE specifically added the Red Onion Helm and the Peregrine Onion Helm to 1.0 - so that those who did not get the Collector's Edition of 1.0 still could get an Onion Helm... of sorts. And this has continued into ARR as well.

Problem is that the Red Onion helm is tank exclusive while the "proper" onion set is for DRG. And manikins in fractal that wear the DRG set have the blue Onion helm.

After they got so many complaints that they offered legitimate versions of the White Ravens and Manderville Earrings last Rising, Yoshi P did apologize for not atleast making the items replicas of the originals. Hindsight is always 20/20.

Maybe they'll add in replicas of items like the Onion Helm sometime, but I hope they don't. Let some things be exclusive to those who supported the game during its darkest period.

So did they recently change the 1.0 codes to make them expire? Because I got that blue helm and it was years after 1.0 was a thing, I'm sure of it.

We received the Legacy status for that. I really don't think an item most likely bought before knowing that the game would fail bears any big relevance. Especially since you probably have several people who bought the Collector early on but still bailed out of the game and thus, aren't considered Legacy players.

I’d like to see the full 1.0 onion set as an event. I only ever managed to get the onion doublet when I played 1.0. Apparently you can get it through retainer quick ventures but I’ve been sending those out for what? 3 years now? And still haven’t gotten a piece of the set, let alone 2 pieces.

A few months ago they had an event that let you experience the calamity and also obtain the 1.0 earrings or whatever it was. There was a lot of people complaining about it because it devalued their ego somewhat. But it was enjoyable and it's not like these things should matter so much if they were once limited but no longer are. They are not physical copies of something and hold no real value. Most people don't even use the limited items they obtained from long ago, so they are kept in storage for the sake of collection. It would be really nice if they brought back old 1.0 items like that, at the very least through the mogstation.

they could just add it
make one fit in armoire and recent one doesn't
everyone gets the helm and people who got it originally get the benefit of having it in armoire
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

its a 1.0 CE reward.
so no, it wont ever show up again, much like my legacy chocobo.

still would be great if it was able to be dyed though

This says the codes can't be redeemed anymore

It might be worth a shot anyway if you're desperate enough though, because I was able to redeem mine not too long ago. And if you look at the paper itself (code is already used, don't bother), there is no expiration date at all on it. I think SE might just be saying that to try and stop people from buying 1.0 copies since they want rid of them.

HMM. Might try and find a code then, doesn't seem to be anyone selling EU codes though at least on ebay
