inb4 the lot shows up on Steam for $10.00 USD a month or two down the road like they did with the "Ultimate collection" copies.

I suppose the price tag is to justify the item.

Fixed to help you out.

Also the items usually are a code redeemable, and found in the box.

[Shenrien]

so... I can't get this thing that would be somewhat useful because I bought them when they first came out?

No you can, then you can just sell the actual game codes seperate. The actual item redeemable is a completely separate code.

heres the embedded offishal youtube vid since u cant post it



its a black version of the chocobo beret pretty much lol...
Costume seems the same.. only diff being the latent effects.. and sadly I don't have a single job below lv30 lol... so I'm wondering if theres a point to this at all.. (BC20?)

I think if you PM Sono he'll hook you up with access.

OH hell ya, my mule account still needs all 6 mini-expansions. The thing is... should I buy 2 copies so my husband can get the hat too? >.>

[Kaisha]

Are we even getting a physical copy over here? POL site just says exclusive for Windows PC download.

Would have been handy just having an up-to-date install disc so I don't have to wait on Steam taking a year to download it for me.



Real shame the hat isn't just made a bonus for having all three Abyssea add-ons. I mean, it's not like I *just* bought these add-ons a month and a half ago, just to have the game be down for a week. Anyways, guess I'll be starting up my 2nd account when Steam has a sale on it. I want me a personal WHM bitch.

Is it worth an extra $20.00 dollars to you ;o

Knowing SE it will be download only, and the code for the promo item will be via email.

They tend to lose a lot of money off of hard copies anymore.

That hat is adorable, also lol @ auto-reraise

not what I was getting at, the point I was trying to get to was, hey hundreds of people own the 3 expansions already, but we don't get a fancy item for it, while the 30 people who don't own abyssea get a fancy item, fuck wasting money on shit that is only useable by Lv.30s and under.

Oh, sorry I misread.

Yeah I doubt there's a way to obtain the item otherwise unless SE is extremely generous which is usually never. Usually when SE does stuff like this, its exclusive. (Mini Choco for the Baby Choco/Necklace Talisman for the teleport group armor/Music CD promos for the piano).

I would love to have a physical copy updated as much as possible, since I have to reinstall pretty often ^^; My husband does a full wipe and reinstall on our computers every few months. Hmm, maybe we can order 1 EN version and 1 JP version... the most recent JP disc we have is the very first collection >.> The hat is adorable and is a worthy bonus and I'd gladly pay $20 each for them; I also have harpsichords and Tidal Talismans for both our characters ^^;

Level Sync baby I still use level sync pretty often when leveling with my mules.

I was Actually just thinking that too. Kind of fucked up if we have to pay for the code or what have you. The people who are buying these expansions when they come out for ~10$ a pop get the content, Duh, yeah, But if they're going to release something like this for 1/3rd off the price of the original 3, and an In-game Item that is the best head armor for 29 levels and the loyal customers who already have the expansions wont get it without buying it again/buying the code... Seems kinda bS.

Hopefully they'll pull a Nexus Cape on us, those of us who already have all 3 Expansions might get the item from a Moogle, Those without the 3 (who buy the Vana3 Collection) will simply have to enter their code.

If not, I think next time they release expansions I'll pass until they release the Vana collection 4 with my new Level 1 Pants with Regen, Refresh, Regain, and Haste+10% while under level 30.

yeah it looks like a great low level item. No worries about exp loss by then but being able to auto-reraise at will is great. I might get this just to collect it. I have some other items like the harpsichord and the chocobo beret (which is still way more exclusive :D)

I'd be happier if players who already bought all 3 abyssea add-ons are instantly eligible for this tho

[Kaisha]

The lvl30-or-less requirement on the hat is the only reason I'm not getting my knickers in a twist over it. Sure it'd be handy when XPing a sub or something for the day while you wait on the recharge, but I already got all the jobs I care about above lvl30.

[Xera]

Jesus, even my pointless town gear is getting gimped by new content. First relics now chocobo berets. D:
