Discuss: Lady Iceheart Attire

I think I picked up Megashiba on sale for ...$16 - 18 USD. It has 3 unique animations/actions, it's account wide, and even then, I can recognize that it's pricey. $12 USD for a single character outfit that is easily replicated with already existing in-game clothes, and you can't dye it?



Also, I think it's okay and good to call out predatory monetization when you see it, as long as people are being civil and not just spamming insults at people that do purchase it.

This exact outfit has been wearable for free since 2019. Nice to see FFXIV still isn't in maintenance mode though!

Erenville's backpack for the same price would be more original than this.

THIS! I wanted the forking backpack since EW was released and i truly believed that when they dropped the patch artwork where the WoL has a backpack on we would actually get one... but no.

Don't be surprised when fashion accessories start appearing in the cash shop. Honestly at that point I'm done with the game, though I'm already on the way out. I hope their plan to focus on casuals who play for less than a few months vs hardcore players who will stay subbed and buy everything without questioning will work out for them in the long run.

The Community: "They put all the best looking stuff in the cash shop!"

Meanwhile, the cash shop: "Here's recolored generic ARR gear"

Well I suppose the literal only benefit is that it's equipable on every Job...

But it's once again seeming like the people in charge of the cash shop don't even know anything about the game.

Yeah I will pass given I can make a free version on my casters and the Altered Felt Robe is all classes and then it is just Hall of the Novice's Brand New set for magic classes.

Guys you have Ion's saboteurs in your team, because there is no other way to explain the recent online store choices.

Boots, Pants/skirt and Gloves
Are literally green dungeon gear.
Dyeable: no.

What is this maintenance mode stuff?

I'm fine with paying more for some effort but this feels very disappointing.

No iceheart hair (thanks Luluna for suggestion)
No dyeable option despite it's the same as green items
No special animation or emote (some icy swirl or self crystalizing animation, similar to /powerup )

Would not buy this even if it included the hair tbh.
