[2.0] Players can now hire up to eight retainers.
* Players are normally limited to two retainers per character. To hire additional retainers, please use the optional retainer service (NA: http://sqex.to/4Aq / EU: http://sqex.to/nLj ) available on the FINAL FANTASY XIV: Mog Station.


So...they aren't giving us a free one instead allowing us to purchase 4 more additional retainers?

Please tell me I am reading this wrong....lol
