I can't believe people are complaining about the rewards. The moogles are trying their best, give them a break

7.1 on launch had literally nothing besides its MSQ and juneo. So that’s what………maybe 2 hours if you are lucky. Then 7.11 and 7.15 added an ultimate and a chaotic, not everyone’s cup of tea, if you didn’t do them then yes the entire gap from 7.0 to 7.2 has been about 1.5 hours of MSQYou breeze through all of the end-game content in 1.5 hours?
Or are you referencing only the MSQ? Square Enix did put together 100+ MSQ quests over the course of the ARR patch cycle, and the resounding cry was to cut that to a minimum. Are you implying you want a return to the 20+ MSQ quests per patch cycle again?
And I don’t know what the post ARR patches have to do with anything. Those patches were actually good if you did them on patch, they only became a problem later when people wanted to speedrun HW and didn’t realise the patch cycle meant defeating gaius is only halfway to HW. I’d be totally fine to return to that sort of patch cycle not that it really is the point of the problem with the lack of content
As a healer main in this game for nigh on 14 years all I can say is that I’m tired. My role has been eroded of complexity and expression for 3 expansions. I’ve watched the tanks do my role for me for 2 expansions and my feedback and critiques continue to fall on deaf ears.
I have no idea who modern healers are designed for but I know now it’s not me. This is the first expansion I’m truly considering dropping the healer role and not returning, so if that was the goal- congratulations I guess
Why are they always like this with the rewards? Even now, when the game’s not in the best spot—seriously?
They could’ve given us something more unique and expensive, like a really cool mount or glam worth 1,000 Tomestones, to keep us busy until patch 7.2.
The obvious 1000 tomestone reward would be Hilda's hairstyle, but then what would they put in the cash shop?
Current extremes, for one. They don't include mounts from current content. Or minions either. This really is and always has been a "in case you missed it, here's a temporary alternate way to get X" event. It's never dressed itself up as any more than that so I don't why you're getting so b*tchy about the rewards. I don't need most of them either. I'm glad it's there for those who haven't been playing going on 11 years like I have. It's fun that it often lets us see things in roulettes that we don't normally see. I was happy with the one before 7.1 because the Weapon trials were included, so those actually popped up in roulettes again.“They aren’t competing with current content”
WHAT CONTENT?
This is the entire point. These are explicitly placed in the timeline as veteran retention events. They aren’t there for sally sprout who thinks making it HW is worth 4 posts on the main sub of reddit. Nobody I know (anecdotal I know) is resubbing or holding off on letting their sub lapse so they earn elidibus’s whistle by fishing and cutters cry and an earring nobody will ever use.

THE REWARD IS STILL AVAILABLE NOW
because again these are veteran retention events. Who are they retaining? If you are so new to the game this actually has stuff that would make you reconsider dropping your sub then you likely weren’t even considering dropping it
What kind of event is “hey if you don’t want to farm eldibus unsynced (which you can do right now) how would you like to get the same reward from CUTTERS CRY THE PEAK OF 14 CONTENT”

You kind of answered your own question didn't you? I don't want to farm eldibus unsynced, so I can get things I otherwise wouldn't from Cutter's Cry.“In case you missed it”

I think it's fun to mark off the minimog and other challenges each week. Plus some rewards can be a pain, so it's fun to have a limited time event to do a variety of content to earn the mogtomes, instead of, for example, running an old extreme over and over again to get a card drop with horrible RNG.
So this event is designed for………..lazy newer players who want easier ways to get easy rewards and this is supposed to hold people over in a patch lull?You kind of answered your own question didn't you?

Fantastic A++ design right there

Needs more mounts.
I think the Mogpendium improved the concept, but with these rewards the main impact on me will be crashing the price of the bed I craft and sell.
