One time purchase?

[SerenitySilvermoon]

Hey,

I'm just wondering if anyone knows the way in which the purchase of Phial of Fantasias work? Do we really get only get to buy 1 one time, and then gradually have to pay more for each? And then if someone actually goes through all of them...are they SOL? Just curious if there was word of this somewhere I didn't see.

Thanks.

You do realise that Fantasia's are there to redesign your character appearance right? It's not like they add anything game breaking or enhancing, and thus they should never need to be used more than a few times.

You get two of them by simply playing the game and being registered. Mine are still kicking back on my retainer because I've no desire to change perfection. That said, should you ever want to change your race, SE already has you covered with the freebie Fantasias.

Is there a particular reason why anyone would actually need to constantly change their race?

Alternating between hyur and potato every week. If I have free infinite fantasias I mean.

To answer your question OP, the purchase options right now are all one time each. If you buy a set of 3 Fantasias and use them all then the next time you want to buy you can purchase only the single one or the bundle of 5. However, this is merely an interim system and they're currently working on rolling out a system that will let you purchase whatever amount you're looking to buy as many times as you wish. No ETA last I heard on exactly when that will be finished.

Currently buying Fantasia work like registering a bonus item.
Because you can't register the same bonus item twice, they sell the Fantasia in different versions (1, 3 and 5) until they worked on it so it don't need to work like bonus items (sending it to a specific character instead to register it for the whole account).

Of course they could have done it with selling just 1 with changed purchase name, like "1 Fantasia 1st purchase", "1 Fantasia 2nd purchase" until "1 Fantasia 9th purchase", but it would just clutter the bonus item list at the end

The restriction will be lifted in the foreseen future. (Long time however)
