On a boat now, it seems.

With a jumping puzzle, too.

And the reward outfit is:

Also Dual-channel dye compatible.

Omg the pool floats!!! Probably zero chance of getting those as items because we don’t have deep enough water furnishings to even float in… but I’d love a mount of that chocobo float!

That Boat looks awesome and I wish it stayed around after the event.

Apparently they said they were actually putting effort into seasonal events again. And it seems they have this time at least. An actual new jump puzzle instead of rehashing the old one.

I really want a pool and Moogle float now.

Good. Looks lovey. I am happy to see that events get love. I am hoping to see similar efforts for All Saints' Wake, because that is my favorite event. I hope the quests are good too and have some funny pieces of lore. I like that. Yes, there are people who actually read the story, I am one of them. I am typing this out so the devs know we exist. Thank you. In all honesty. Please keep doing this.

Can we choose the shorts/jacket and shirt colour separately??

I'm probably about to lose a lot of this evening to that jump puzzle. Thoughts and prayers.

Oooh, I can't wait to try that new jump puzzle :3


I also decorated my homes last night for Moonfire Faire, I posted it in the housing section and hope to see other people decorate theirs, it always gets me excited to see them :3

It's dual dye, so you should be able to and the shorts and shirt are separate too.

I wish the pool area is what we’re getting in our 7.0 vacation at its baseline rather than a temporary event.

Chapeau. Yeah only one quest again BUT, i can see the effort they put in this time. Having a lot of fun at the event. Thank you

I, for one, love it!

Had a great time getting shot out of those cannons!

And love the floats on the pool, although there are very few of them. Had to settle for one of these in the end:

Lucky to get a sun-lounger too - they're in high demand!

This is my favourite spot in the whole game now. I'm having a blast at the event!! Thank you, SE!

Ooo can you doze on the floats?

So happy to see people having a super fun time! :)

You asked for it, and Square Enix listened. You liked posing and idling, so they gave you more of that. You liked using mods to add casual/alternative gear, so they gave you more of that. They even added the phone emotes from mods that many of you liked.

This post isn’t a complaint, I’m just stating what you all like. I think Square Enix is doing a good job listening to other players. That doesn’t mean it’s a good job to listen to them, but that judgement lies with the jury, which is you, doesn’t it?

Heeeey, the angry kitty is still pay... i mean playing!!!

But I do agree. Very fun event! And the outfit is amazing :3

I love this event. This is easily the best Moonfire Faire I've ever been to, and I've been playing since beta.

You can't, sadly. I used the /playdead emote ;_;

I went to the event last night, the boat is really pretty, it's a shame it's going to disappear once the event is over !

The area is great but the quest... not so much

I dunno what the devs were thinking, but there were multiple correct answers to this quest:

Yeah, okay. Perhaps I shouldn't get involved until after tragedy strikes...

I wish I could agree, but while I appreciate the effort that clearly went into the ship, the absence of the jumping puzzle tower still makes the whole thing feel sour to me.
The new jumping puzzle aboard the ship is magnitudes less engaging than the old one.

If the old tower was still around, it would be perfect, but as is, I can't help but feel disappointed. Seriously hoping they'll bring it back next year, or do a new one that's on the same level of length and challenge.

The event quest was lame but I really like the boat! The glam is nice, too. :)

More care went into this event than the last year's put together. New venue has lots of cute details. Also the Pulse remix at night is a great touch!

Another instance of the devs given the means to actually put a little effort into things again. I was having fun goofing around with my FC since we had set pieces to play with.

Please keep this up!

The boat and use of the Pulse Remix rock. I love seeing Beaudefoin and Hildelana again (my favorite seasonal NPCs), and T'zanza is a nice character I'd like to see more of.

The quest itself is overtly another advertisement for the reward. I wish they'd make that much less obvious in future seasonal events. Beyond that, this is a great experience.

Quest wasn't fun, glam is alright, puzzle is frustrating because you have low fps in that particular zone. its literally eating my pc. But other than that I think the ship is a nice addition though. Some cool stuff to do, can lay on sunbed so others watch your character and think about it in their erp sessions.

Not a bad thing, liked the ship so far and to hang there.

Please. PLEASE. More non-instanced seasonal venues that encourage people to stick around after completing the literal 10 minute long quest. This event's great

Does anyone else have the issue of not seeing the story NPCs, like Alpha, Emmaneillan, the island mammets and so on?

Emmanellain can be at (at least) 2 spots. 1 is at the slides where he is worried that someone might push him off, the other is 'drowning' because he didn't do so well competing with that blue-haired pirate. Finding the NPCs is always a nice extra after the quest is over and the reward is in! :-)
