    The fact that basically all the rewards are kind of crap because they're easier to get without actually participating in this event?

    Like... If the rewards were actually notable, things that are hard to get, exclusive or you know... Not just free for any "Veteran" to just waltz into outdated content and pick up. Then it'd make sense.

    Since then it would actually be incentive to max level players whom might then decide to participate in this event because the rewards would actually be worth the hassle that is going through these, MSQ things (Especially the MSQ Roulette cutscenes dungeons)

    As it is, the rewards available only make sense as something that you can just spam out unsync'd. As that's the only way they're actually remotely worth farming duties for, given that for many of them... That's literally what you can do to obtain them (And more... Like, you can get all the ponies and all the ARR EX Primal loot.... Even if Leviathan got nerfed because you can't skip some phases by bursting him fast enough...)

    Like, if the mounts were stuff like Rathalos or Kamuy instead, which aren't easily solo'd and would otherwise take a lot of grinding in more difficult content. If there was items from all the special boss fates - Odin, Behemoth, Coeurlregina, Proto Ultima, Ixion and Tamamo. More minions and Orchestrion Rolls from SB content that won't be soloable for likely 4 years when 7.0 is released etc.

    Then that would be more enticing and would get more veteran players into these MSQ duties as they try and farm out as much as they can.

    Rather than them deciding "Hmm... Do I spam hundreds of MSQ duties which are kind of sucky and take like 15-45 minutes each? Or do I just solo some stuff in 2 minutes and get the same items? What a tough decision!"

    This is awesome! More mounts and minions and TT Cards are an excellent reason to do this.

    I remember at the beginning of ff11 was a little bit about taking regular breaks, and not neglecting your real life, family and work. This feels like the opposite. I'd go for the earrings, but doubt I'll be able to get them in the time I have to play, plus I'm still trying for the garo mounts ><

    Yeah! I'd love this. Or the dalamud horn would be awesome

    My big question is, why don't you get rewards for joining a party in progress? It seems to me that would be a desirable action to have players do, to make it easier for parties who've lost a member to still complete the duty. Instead, this is encouraging people to only queue for the start of dungeons, even people who would normally be fine to join an in-progress dungeon.

    The earrings looks so... Meh for 100 coins, too much for it to be honest, I prefer to continue my MSQ on that time them to repeat dungeons for a little fishy earring ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
    Definitely carry on with the MSQ then. Once you're level 70 with i380+ gear, you can solo all the ARR Primals easily on any job. The Pegasus isn't too difficult to get if you have a friend to go into Diadem with. Don't waste tokens on the Lanners. Bismarck and Ravana are also very easy to farm.

    And therein lies the issue I have with this "event." The rewards simply do not justice the sheer hours required. Even the Namazu earrings necessitates an extremely long grind. Yes, I know it's to incentivize players into old content, but we needs only look at PvP to showcase if the rewards are too obnoxious to obtain. It's no longer an incentive for people.

    Now I think on it, this "event" would be the perfect way to enable people to earn cash shop items in-game. Just leave it as a permanent on-the-side thing. You can collect the tomestones fast or slow, or you can cough up the cash as usual if you're not interested in the grind. (assuming they don't get stupid/greedy and are asking for thousands of tomes for things)

    This "event" will just amount to Syrcus spam. Lots and lots of Syrcus spam. By far the most time-cost:reward efficient thing on the list.

    We don't actually get a whole lot of time to get the points either (a bit less than one month?) and there are a lot of potential things to farm for (I already have the majority of them so it doesn't affect me so much, but I understand not everyone is in the same boat) so you can bet that people interested in getting any of this stuff will go about it in the single most efficient way they can.
