Moogle Treasure Trove: The Hunt for Lore (October-November 2021)

[Daeriion_Aeradiir]

But for some reason SE keeps pushing us back in there anyway, be it through the current relic quest or the moogle event and it is also by far the most boring alliance raid series.

For this one, you can see there's a clear theme going on with the instances chosen; many of them are MSQ capstone gates. This moogle event is clearly designed to push people towards dungeons that block entering a new expansion (Baelsar's wall, Ghimlyt Dark) or block reaching the endgame of an expansion (Aetherchemical, Ala Mhigo, Amarout). So promoting the CT raids falls within this moogle event's purpose, since Crystal tower gates entering Heavensward now, or EW for returning players by blocking 5.3 progression.

Certainly looks that way. I have several alts sitting at different points in the MSQ and I've never had to wait very long for any of those dungeons to pop as a DPS within the last few months. I haven't done Shadowbringers in awhile so I can't comment on Amarout but that one can be done via Trusts.
