Aetheryte Ticket - Useless

[LordSliver]

i pay a sub to access the game, yes. but i maintain a constant sub because i want these rewards, i'd be fine going without playing a month before a new patch since i go through most of the content before the next patch is released. i would argue it's not a "gift horse" as square enix is incentivising an uninterrupted subscription on my part with the promise of these rewards. so you'll have to excuse me if you believe me entitled when i say the aetheryte tickets suck. acquiring teleport gil is not a problem, just do your dailies and you have a decent number of teleports a day with a little bit left over.

wind up odin is beautiful though i only wish the companion reward was any where near its level.

Actually its designed so you can interrupt your subscriptions from what I read on it. You can paid 2 months straight take 3 months break than pay for another month and you would be at 3 months subscription paying, getting the 3 month sub reward.

To confirm what many of you have read only through Twitter, the 360-day Veteran Reward will grant users fifty (50) consumable Aetheryte Tickets and is optionally used as an item within one's inventory bag when teleporting.

That's underwhelming to say the least. Another Fantasia potion would have been 100x better.

Considering there was talk about how the one year reward would be "something really special" this is pretty underwhelming. Considering you're looking at around $185 total invested in the game, I think a permanent reduction in the over all cost of the Teleport ability would be a better reward.

How disappointing I feel like the reward for adding a security token and this 360-day reward got mixed up somewhere :s

I know people are going to call us entitled brats but really is crappy vet reward it like you don't pull out your A+ prizes for 30 days like fantasia and then follow it up with 50 free teleports which is more like a C prize.

I second this. I would go as far as saying anything would be better, but they came up w/ so the next idea could be worse. Talk about rewarding one self into a corner, after the behe mount/ahriman at earlier days, this just seems like they didn't try. I hope they rethink this and add something like a black or gold chocobo.

50 free teleport tickets? well, i guess i will sell them on the MB for 50k, bet someone will buy it.

95% sure they will be untradeable. As the veteran rewards are account based, meaning every character you make will get the items, it would be too easy to make chars, take tickets and delete and redo. So no selling them on market wards

to be honest this is kind of like a slap in the face for a one year reward hardly special, would be nice if you guys removed the ticket and turned them into something like that one time password or something. a free teleport for one time password and a free teleport for a full year subcription fifty tickets for a veteran reward, I am kinda disgusted this went through as a reward :/.

i so hope they have errors with this after patch goes live and then it turns into a big april fools joke

This is exactly why you shouldn't give out items that give players some sort of advantage. Do too much, you've warped the balance for new players. Do too little, and the committed players feel insulted.
Mounts, minions, barding, and general vanity. Those are perfectly fair. They don't alter gameplay and still feel like something special.
What would have been really nifty would be some sort of wind up doll of yourself. But that would probably be more effort than it's worth.
