Can I still get the Dalamud minion?

[MiNuN]

How would I go about it?

[Olyvar]

To get the wind up Dalamud you need to purchase the original FFXIV soundtrack Before Meteor. Within the case you have a voucher code which you can apply to your account via the Mog station before 31 December 2014

As stated, yes the "Wind-Up Dalamud" was only available on the 'Before Meteor' soundtrack but there is a new minion coming out "Wind-Up Bahamut" .........

Preorder now for the upcoming Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn Original Soundtrack [Blu-ray] via the Square-Enix store So you have a choice (or both if you choose lol) however the 'Before Meteor' soundtrack has more tracks on it and.........

The following is quoted from the SE store as I believe you run the chance of not getting a minion from the 'Before Meteor' soundtrack anymore...

"< The first run of the soundtrack also contains a download code for a unique in-game minion! >

Within a limited number of copies from the first print run of the album you will find a serial code that allows you to download the special "Wind-Up Bahamut" minion to use in the game itself!"

--------------

The Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn Original Soundtrack [Blu-ray] is due for release on the 26th March and it is $50 or £31 depending which side of the Atlantic you are on. Can't remember what the price is on the EU website and I am unsure of what the cost is for those in Australia, but you can still order it from any of the stores and it will tell you the postage cost regardless.

50 bucks?
I don't want it that bad.

Actually, the new OST features a totally different minion to the one included with Before Meteor (BM features a Wind-Up Dalamud which shows what it looked like before the Calamity - the minion included with the new OST however is a Wind-up Bahamut, showing the big lizard bursting out of Dalamud). So yeah, two totally different minions (the OP is actually asking about the Wind-Up Dalamud).

Bleh. Getting permanently locked out of stuff like that is rubbish... The inability to complete a collection winds up killing my interest in a game pretty harshly. :-/
Granted, they've already crossed that bridge by introducing out-of-game acquisition, one-off-events, and exclusive 1.Ø crap in the first place, but still...

I wanted the minion, but I wasn't going to throw $5Ø at it... That's just a rip-off and sets a bad precedent... :-\

Um... if this is what's killing your interest in the game then you have some serious issues. Get a grip already.

You have PLENTY of time and opportunity to get the minion if you chose so.

This is nothing new from SE, there are items in XI that you can no longer obtain as well. As the old saying goes... you snooze, you lose.
