Meteor Survivor Ring - Thank You SE

[KaMuiSouZou]

Thanks for the kind words everyone!

Out of curiosity, is it just cosmetic, or did you get stats on it?

All classes lvl 34
Def 1, Mag Def 1, Increased Spiritbond Gain +3

What was the "exclusive in-game item" for the grand prize winner mentioned in the original contest post?

I haven't received mine yet so I don't know for sure, but the standard "exclusive in-game item" they gave for Ver 1 contests was the Scarf of Wondrous Wit. We'll see what it ends up being!

Follow up question for KaMuiSouZou -- did you enjoy the quest to unlock the Meteor Survivor's Ring?

I enjoyed it a lot, it was silly and weird but definitely fun! My favorite part though was at the very end when you finished the quest, when you find out the goofiness of this goldsmith is actually the tragic result of a broken mind from the calamity... but therein comes the uplifting meaning behind my ring.

"The stone is taken from a fragment of Dalamud itself, created in abiding faith that out of the worst may come beauty.

It sounded as though he lost something - or someone - in the Calamity. 'The ring is the only thing I have made in the last five years,' he said, 'and now I would like Shaku to have it.' Extraordinary."


My concept behind the ring was that it commemorates Eorzea's rebirth and pays homage to its past. By this, I not only mean the in-game characters can rise and overcome the calamity of Dalamud, but the real life XIV staff and community as well. And I'm proud to say I think we have!
