    And honestly, I wouldn't mind some practical consumables -- like dye pots or aetheryte tickets -- being added to Khloe's rewards either.

    Having some generally-useful consumables as a way to bleed off otherwise-unused currency in any system seems like a reasonable design choice to me.
    I think they'd rather just leave it alone. I'm happy to forget / ignore the achievement vendor.

    If you're looking for aetheryte tickets, see your Allied Seal and Centurio Seal vendors.

    I mean, sure. And if you want dye pots, there's always the returner campaigns and friend referral campaigns that give you golden chocobo feathers.

    I just wouldn't mind more options to get useful consumables, especially if it's with a currency they're still giving us regardless; adding new things to vendors is almost certainly relatively straightforward. (A topic where I don't talk about the complexities of MMO back-end ecosystems, and actually say a thing is likely an easy change? I know, I'm checking whether there's snowplows in the Bad Place right now too...)

    Let me use my ever-growing stack of Khloe's bronze and silver certificates on something I actually want, or trade them up to the next level if I have enough of them, or whatever. Etc.

    I aim to make my posts engaging and entertaining, even when you might not agree with me. And failing that, I'll just be very, VERY wordy.
