When Sq. Enix introduced the Meister High quality Hydaelyn & Zodiark determine again in January, together with its related in-game emote Apocalyptic Charades, gamers have been left shocked by not solely the worth of $350 but additionally by the accompanying emote’s limitations. In accordance with the merchandise description, Apocalyptic Charades was character locked. 

Which means that the emote would solely be usable by one character related to the customer’s account, one thing that left many upset, contemplating the truth that FFXIV permits you to have a number of characters. For $350 {dollars}, it appears fairly honest to imagine it’s account-wide.

It wasn’t altogether shocking, although. When the Meister High quality Omega determine was launched in 2020, the related Omega Simulations emote was certainly character locked, so patrons weren’t too shocked with Apocalyptic Charades being the identical.

Nonetheless, this truth seems to have been fallacious on the time of publishing, as Sq. Enix has since clarified that Apocalyptic Charades shall be account-wide, that means that any present characters or any made sooner or later will be capable of use it. 

The product description for the Ballroom Etiquette – Apocalyptic Charades bonus code has been corrected and can now grant the emote service account-wide reasonably than per character as initially listed.

Whereas the above Twitter submit clears up confusion concerning the account-wide standing of the emote, it additionally serves to clear up one other level of confusion — whether or not the emote could be persisting or not. 

The earlier Omega Simulations emote permits gamers to drift indefinitely, whether or not they’re AFK or ready for a queue to pop. The unique video showcasing the Apocalyptic Charades emote made it arduous to inform whether or not it could supply the identical, however in a touch upon the Twitter submit, Sq. Enix have clarified:

“The “Sundering” emote shall be carried out as a persistent emote the place the character will stay floating with their weapon drawn. As soon as the participant makes any motion or motion which might cancel the emote, then the character will land on the bottom.”
