Not into the whole annual event thing? Perhaps you’d like to just pick up some new Carbuncle-themed gear and mounts. Yes, your summoner can now bring out a Carbuncle big enough to ride, and dress up in Carbuncle-themed robes. There’s also an ongoing sale through January 29th on several dyes and retainer level boosts, so you can pick those up on the cheap.
Last but not least, the site has begun to remind players that new tomestones are coming into the game, which means changes to existing stones and the need to exchange some. In particular, Lore and Scripture tomestones are being removed from the game, so if you still have a few left that you haven’t yet exchanged, you should probably do that now.
