Aetheryte Ticket - Useless

[Ethos]

When it says that the item is consumed on use it doesn't mean that the free teleport is only one time but that the item changes your characters teleport cost to 0 permanently and the ticket disappears from your inventory like using a Fantasia.

Or it's like a really long buff, as opposed to being permanent. If you think about it, if it lasted 24hours like FC abilities, even that would be pretty nice considering how much gil you could save doing stuff (teleing to Beast Quests, Mor Dhona, Home cities, Treasure hunts, etc). Not the greatest thing in the world, but still pretty nice. I think permanent would be going a bit too far.

That's most likely what it is, but some clarification would be nice as it's not a very clear description.

How could you think that?

Item: Aetheryte Ticket
Description: Players in possession of an aetheryte ticket when using Teleport will not incur a gil fee. This item will be consumed upon use.

The item itself describes that you consume the item by using a teleport. It details very specifically. Why is this considered vague?


That said. This is a terrible reward for such a long subscription. A one time use free teleport for my continued subscription is a pretty big slap in the face considering the other prize is a minion I get to keep forever.

You're wrong. It's exactly how minions work. You use it for the first time, the item becomes consumed and you have the minion forever. When using this item, it will go to your General actions menu where it says all teleportation costs are free. When it says you have to have the ticket on you when you teleport, simply means that it's part of your permanant traits. It's like getting an airship pass.

Edit: three other people above beat me to it.

Not so sure about this. The airship pass was not a consumable item; I'm not even sure it's a key item. We were just granted that privilege after a certain point in the 2.0 storyline. I can see the Ticket acting like a minion or companion that is consumed and then available at any time to you, but they should remove that last sentence stating the item will be consumed upon use. This leads me to believe it is a 1 time item.

I may be wrong, but i prefer a more straight forward interpretation. When I consdier a more literal interpretation it makes more sense that its a one time use than it being used like a minion. I don't think they intend to give away free teleports forever just because you played for a year. It would eliminate that entire money drain from the economy, it would eliminate the entire point of have favored aetherytes, it would make older players the "teleport b***h" in all parties. I understand how you could try and read it that way, but I'm doubtful this is the effect they intend to have on the game. Aslo, as others have stated the airship pass didn't have a usable item. Using that as a precedent I don't think this is an item that will give us an autopass for teleports forever.

This was fast lol

I would rather have crystal shards then these minions, tickets and barding. You know? Things I could actually use maybe?
