Wrapping Papers
|
Wrapping Papers are a collection of distinct present wrappings, originally introduced with the quests Gallon's Shop and Pioneer Christmas. If mentioned with two colors, the first color refers to the packaging, while the second refers to the ribbon used. Aside from the default wrapping (White/Pink) available at Gallon's Shop, as well as the Christmas Present which has a unique wrapping of red packaging with a green ribbon, there are nine other wrappings available:
- Yellow/Blue
- Black/Yellow
- Light-blue/Orange
- Pink/Yellow-green
- Magenta
- Blue
- Yellow
- Vermilion
- Green
Uses
- Main articles: Gallon's Shop and Pioneer Christmas
Wrapping an item with one of these nine wrapping papers as well as the default White/Pink wrapping costs 30 "Gallon Points" or 10,000 Meseta at Gallon's Shop.
Most items, such as weapons, frames/armors and barriers/shields, can be wrapped.
Some items, such as consumables and units, cannot be wrapped.
Giving an NPC in Pioneer Christmas wrapped presents of the above nine wrapping papers will award the character one time only with a Christmas Present.
WARNING: All presents given this way will be lost. It is advised to buy cheap frames as a low-level character for this purpose.
Availability
During Christmas Events, wrapped presents can be obtained in the following ways:
- Pioneer Christmas allows players to wrap an eligible item for free after participating in the quest's games, in the Mountain Area.
- The wrapping paper decided upon is based on using your Guild Card number and finding its remainder after dividing it by 9 (GuildCard modulus 9).
- The Christmas Event Shop allows players to exchange Coal for presents, notably 40 for one Ultimate Present.
- Presents can also drop, usually at a rate of 1/1,500 from any properly-defeated enemy.
- Rappies that are scared off instead of those that faint, as well as box drops, are exempt.
- This rate doubles (using the earlier rate as example, to 1/750) on Christmas Eve/Day as well as New Year's Eve/Day.
If you have any presents of a different color than those you can wrap at Gallon's Shop, going to that quest and showing them to a man looking at Ragol (XZ: 320, -165) outside the shop will unlock alternative wrapping paper.
Note: Your present will not be lost in the process.
