    The Return Home to Vana'diel Campaign Makes a Triumphant Return! (12/10/2008)

    Back by popular demand, we're proud to announce that the Return Home to Vana'diel Campaign will launch on Thursday, December 18th, 2008.
    In this latest version of the campaign, the types of characters that can be restored have been vastly expanded! Also, these characters will be able to enjoy the benefits of the previous campaign by receiving the ever-popular Anniversary Ring.

    There's never been a better time to dust off your armor, sharpen that sword, collect a free Anniversary Ring, and get back in the chocosaddle again! Don't miss out!


    What Is the Return Home to Vana'diel Campaign?
    Designed specifically for those out there thinking of making a comeback to the online universe that is Vana'diel, the Return Home to Vana'diel Campaign is a limited-time opportunity for players to restore their characters to their past glory!
    Applications made during the established time frame will see their characters restored in full and exactly as they left them. Better yet, they will be immediately capable of embarking on new adventures!


    Anniversary Rings Available for a Limited Time Only
    After the character has been restored and logged into the game, an Anniversary Ring will be made available through the method described below. The window to obtain the ring is as follows:

    Thursday, December 18th, 2008 through to Wednesday, April 14th, 2009.
    The distribution of the rings will end at the same time the campaign does so be sure to pick up your ring before it's too late!


    Anniversary Ring Eligibility
    Only characters fulfilling the following two conditions will be eligible to receive an Anniversary Ring:

    - Characters who did not receive an Anniversary Ring during the Adventurer Appreciation Campaign in May 2008.
    - Characters who were created before Wednesday, May 28, 2008 and have logged into the game at least once since then.

    *Note: Characters meeting the above requirements are able to receive an Anniversary Ring even without participating in the Return Home to Vana'diel Campaign.


    How to Obtain Your Ring
    After making sure that you have at least one free space in your Gobbiebag, simply go and talk to any of the moogles located in the areas listed below:

    Port San d'Oria (J-10) / Port Bastok (J-13) / Windurst Walls (C-14)


    The Fine Print
    - Although the campaign will welcome any player wishing to return to Vana'diel, the Anniversary Ring will only be available for a limited time. Therefore, it is possible that some campaign participants will be unable to receive a ring. Your understanding in this matter is greatly appreciated.

    - Characters that have obtained an Anniversary Ring as part of the Adventurer Appreciation Campaign in May 2008 will be unable to acquire another ring, even if they return to FINAL FANTASY XI as part of the Return Home to Vana'diel Campaign.

    - Used Anniversary Rings cannot be recharged during the campaign. Disposal of a ring will not enable a player to acquire another.

      Now I know how N64 Kid felt. ANNIRING!!!!!!!!!!!! OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I missed mine earlier when I took a break, I didn't even know they handed them out in May until somebody told me a few months ago. Otherwise I would've logged in just to get one, but since I'll get one before next year I believe I will do a dance now. <INSERT BALFREE'S MOSKAU> I think SE came to kickass and chew bubble gum this December...... and they're all out of bubble gum.

            EDIT: FOUND IT!

            Anniversary Ring (Rare/Ex)
            [Ring] All Races
            Experience Point Bonus: +100%
            Maximum Duration: 720 minutes
            Maximum Bonus: 3000
            10/10 Charges
            (Cannot be recharged and since it came out, no more than one has been granted each year.)
            Lv.1 All Jobs

            It cannot be used with any other XP ring at the same time, however you can use a combination of the following: Use Anni Ring until duration wears off, use Empress/Emperor/Chariot band immediately after until duration wears off, then use Anni Ring again. Anni Ring's recast is many hours faster than a normal XP ring, and it is very useful for burning through a job that you may or may not want to level. I'll be using it on my THF during my 12 days off.

              Ten charges, six hour duration, one hour recast.

                Hmm, interesting. One of my chars technically qualifies; she had a full anniversary ring from 2007 when they were handing out for 2008, so I didn't bother getting her a new one. Though I probably still won't bother, as her 2007 ring is still full.

                Both my Anniversary Rings on my main char got used up in relatively short order on leveling DRK in a trio. I still have at least a few charges on the rest of my chars' second rings, and some of the mules' rings are still full.

                        Aw shame I used up my ring to get SCH from 1-37.

                        Ah well May isn't too far away. I can wait until then for another one.

                            Can someone explain how these work? I want to rejoin FFXI with my old character. Do I just resubscribe and it does it automatically? Do I have to resubscribe during the dates stated for the Return Home Campaign? How do I go about this?
                            No one can predict the future... there are no garuntees.

                              I missed the ring myself last May, but they wouldn't give me one this time ... maybe I'll try again later.
