Since OP was 80 but he only posted 1 message I was curious about how long he has been playing the game and so I checked is character and I found something very interesting: He owns the flying cloud from 2017 or so https://eu.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodes...5112495/mount/ and to my knowledge this mount was not made purchasable meaning he is far from being a new player. And since 2017 there were some disasters.
Some of you guys might remember that they stop housing demolition until 4.2 at some point for a similar reason and according to the lodestone https://eu.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodes...33e139e9792abf 4.2 came out in january 2018.

Yet OP only made 1 post here with the well being of fellow Australians in mind asking for a very specific mount.
