Although
VanaFest 2010 is moving into the memories (
fond or otherwise) of
Final Fantasy XI fans everywhere, there are still bits and pieces that remained unanswered questions. For instance, what exactly are the
prized Chocobo Berets going to do when players get their hands on them? Thanks to Corinth on the popular fan translation site
JP Button, we finally have our answer:
they turn players into chocobos. Using the hat turns everyone in the party into an egg which, when hatched (by removing the buff), will temporarily turn a player into an adolescent chocobo that improves their movement speed somewhat. High time to start making friends with attendees or
trivia contest winners for that.
The translated information also points to the hats being available with the
March version update, which looks to be going live on March 23rd.
The VanaFest site has a full breakdown of what's due with the update, but in short it's set to include the penultimate parts of the
Wings of the Goddess storyline, job adjustments, and the long-awaited
Odin and
Alexander summon spells. It's also introducing the new "Trial of the Magians" quests. so the end of the month promises to be very busy for
Final Fantasy XI -- even if you're not waiting to hatch from a hat-induced egg.
