Possible "A Shantotto Ascension" Rewards

Crazy. We've been doing Sky for maybe 3 years now and people still want things. The majority of our items goes free lot bar haidate and kirin items. We just wouldn't think to sell them because people want them even if they are lotting them for no point cost.

What if they do something completely unexpected and actually do non visible peices or armor. Or even lol weapons.

If they are going to give an item it will be gloves, legs or feet.

The simple reason is you can easily see these items and that means people will check the person wearing it and want the item themselves and then go buy the mini expansion.

The fact that they add weapons and armor with great stats on boring models speaks volumes of this

I know I wasn't the only one that wanted to replace haub with neuvo just to wear something that looks different.

...then I SAW it. Good. GOD.

You're not serious are you?

Very much. I haven't seen any weapons you get after doing missions that give you choseable augments on them.

I know what he meant but by that token you could count FOV. I'm saying it's nothing like the armors we've gotten from the missions

Now you're being picky.

They have done weapons where you do a quest that contains a fight to obtain augments on that weapon.

That's the extent of augment weapons they will add.

Not really because FOV is a very non-specific augments. All the weapon augments are positive enhancements to those weapons and the weapons were designed to be augmented through the quest.

A New Challenge Awaits!
The greatest heroes and heroines of Vana'diel—those who have achieved the pinnacles of their respective professions—can also look forward to a new quest that will test the limits of their prodigious powers, and promise rich rewards in kind.
With hordes of fell beasts threatening their ancestral homelands, the pixies would entreat your aid. By entering into a pact with the fey folk to slay one of their notorious foes, high level players will have the opportunity to obtain an augmented item to add to their arsenal.
While Fields of Valor and the elite training regimes offer quick, straightforward objectives that can be enjoyed by lone wolves, this new quest is intended to provide a significant challenge to full parties of up to six veteran adventurers.

To participate in this quest, players must first craft a suitable weapon via a set of new recipes that will be introduced in the coming version update. Entrust one such weapon to the new quest-giving NPC and successfully complete the assigned task, and your weapon will be retuned, freshly endowed with an augment of impressive potency. Should the initial enchantment not be to your liking, you will also have the opportunity to slay a different foe—up to a maximum of five times—to receive a new augment that may better suit your needs.

This quest will offer something for everyone, as each member of the victorious party who has accepted the quest will be eligible to reap the augmented reward. Even players who have not accepted the augmentation quest will be compensated for assisting fellow adventurers with a bounty of their own.
