Fixing Legacy Characters Story

[ArkhamNative]

[...] I did not beat Nael and I certainly did not receive any dalamud horn. My character received the 1.0 intro and is treated as a 1.0 character in cut scenes.

This is why it sounds like a bug to me. Also, because the differences in dialogue aren't about Carteneau or Nael Von Darnus, but smaller things that apply to all v1, like having signed the adventurers book and welcoming back characters/players returning to Eorzea after a long absence.

I'm OK if SE wants to recognize only characters that completed some late Umbral Era Quest, perhaps for bigger dialog differences later, but so far everything I've seen and heard points to simply "welcome back" for all v1 characters.

I rode my Goobbue in phase 4 without joining a GC in that phase. Or did you mean GC Chocobo authorisation back in 1.0?

Back in 1.0. I'm not sure it was possible to get a GC chocobo with the Lv20 cap in phase4 beta. I'm also not sure if getting the GC chocobo in ARR would actually let people affected by this bug get access to their goobbue mount again.

Edit: To clarify (see next message), I found my legacy chocobo in moogle mail and goobbue horn on the calamity NPC in phase 4. When I "use"d them, they converted to actions in the Actions & Traits window under "Mounts". When I tried to use either action, from the window or after putting them in the hotbar, the system said "Not authorized to summon mount." I was outdoors.
