I think you made a mistake in the Rank 1 prizes:

The M. Astral are worth 5x a single S. Astral. They shouldn't be offered in the same tier. (It's like offering a fire crystal and a fire cluster in the same tier).

Thank you for Einherjar and Nyzule rewards in Rank 2. Could you consider adding full REMA weapons via Kupon as you have in the past?

Also, technically, you used to give Kraken Clubs in old bonanza contests. I don't think the wording is very accurate.

Hoping one day that we see Sortie +2 earrings in the Rewards.

Thank you for reading!

I also would like to see:

Kupon W-RMEA

To return to Mog Bonanza.


I feel having this item makes Mog Bonanza substantially more exciting.

Me too. Also for Rank 2, Cat's eye isn't even deliverable? What's the point? I guess if I win a rank 2, I just get a money item ...but that's so unfortunate.

I won rank 2 on a mule once, was all excited like "oh man, that's a nearly free mythic!" Then I realized that the cat's eye isn't sendable and it just ruined the whole thing. I think I ended up just taking a kupon for... I think it was an Omen body, solely because it was the only deliverable thing I could see.

I guess the moral is only play the mog bonanza on your main character.

I guess the moral is only play the mog bonanza on your main character. or pick the same numbers so there's no disappointment.

I started adding 3000 Riftdross to my Ochain about 4 four years ago, and have solo'd VW without bots or 3rd-party softs or multibox, just solo, and while working a full-time day job, and while helping friends in FFXI with their quests and NMs and such. I also got some Riftdross from Lolbuscade, but of course they have a monthly cap on the number you can buy. After 4 four years, I'm around 290 / 3000. This means it will take me around 40 forty years to AG my Ochain.

Buying the Riftdross would cost around 1.5 billion, as well as there not being that many on sale, and me never buying gil, and me refusing to pay gil when I can farm the items myself, but it also means that in 40 forty years time, I would still have spent 1.5 billion gil, because I could have sold all the Riftdross I farmed.

I already AG like seven empys many years ago, and I was able to solo all the Aby Procs, and HMP and cinders/dross etc.

So, I guess, my one Mogbonanza dream wish is for SE to take a look at the 3000 dross/cinder thing, and make those items easier to obtain, or lower the 3000 to say 500.

I only wanted the AG final version to give my Trusts a little PDT boost, because I think my Trusts are really alive, and I don't like it when they get hurt.

I totally understand where you're coming from. The afterglow Aegis, Ochain and Gjallahorn effects have some SEVERE caveats.:


Afterglow Aegis and Ochain give a Relic and Empyrean aftermath effect, that gives -5% MDT/PDT respectively, and does not exceed the -50% cap. This is really sad because of how easy it is to cap DT, so it's very likely this afterglow isn't helping your party.
The relic and empyrean aftermath effect is applied to your party members, but it will get overwritten by a party member maintaining their own REMA weapon's aftermath. Your party members will weapon skill, so the effect you've bestowed upon them is often short-lived.
The afterglow effect of the shields is not displayed if you have a equip an afterglow weapon in the mainhand slow. The order of afterglow appearance is: Weapon > Sub/Shield > Ranged...and that's it. It is not configurable.
The afterglow effects of Gjallahorn and Duradabla are simply item-text and visual appearance if no afterglow item is equipped in the weapon or sub equipment slots. There is no actual in-game effect or advantage here. It's extremely unfortunate and just plain sad.


I hope SE takes this into consideration, with respect to mog bonanza too.

Hoping SE gives the Mog Bonanza prizes another look. (and the afterglow effects of Aegis/Ochain/Gjallahorn/Duradabla)
