Moogle as playable race

[Miesta]

i was thinking about this. moogles have played a big part of FF for many years and id like to see them as a playable race. i think it would be very cute to be a moogle and id def be one. what does everyone else think about this idea?

Welp, the main answer is if they're not going to create armor for beast tribe or beast-like characters, they'd probably wouldn't do it for moogles.

But I agree with you. I'd actually be tempted to give up my Au Ra if I could play a moogle. Moogle tanks would compete with Lala tanks for best possible tanks.

They don't need to create armor, just hats and tiny weapons!

What SE could do is make a Moogle Dungeon. In another game there was a "pet dungeon" which could only be entered using mounts/pets that the player has. The mechanic for it was awkward because pets had their own levels, so unless the player grinded the pet's level 50 within a week, the per was permanently in a weak state and unable to really play it. On the OTHER hand, there were special instance dungeons where you got to play your spirit animal, or flash-backs with other characters.

So all SE would need to do in such a case, is use the models that already exist (eg King Moggle Mog) and just assign the level of the player to the moogle. So for all intents playing the Moogle dungeon would transform the players character into a role that matches the Moogle model. It would involve obviously some work so that all the animations work. It just bypasses the gear requirements by having the models fixed.

I'm gonna have to say no based off their lore in the game as is. Besides I don't think a race that's persistantly flying is a good idea when it comes to gear design and system resources. Best bet for playing as a moogle is making a pale skin lalafell with a moogle cap on.

I would love this! <3

Moogles being tinier than lalafell, and who prefer to fly and has never been seen walking on the ground, I highly doubt they would ever implement them to be a playable race.

As mentioned in this thread, for lore reasons they daren't break that where suddenly there is an abundance of Moogles around Eorzea.

Moogles in THIS game are basically furry faeries and are for all intents unique to FFXIV and FF Crystal Chronicles. All other versions of moogles don't perpetually fly, and visually, they look like the FF5/FF6 moogle (more cat than bear.) There is a reference in HW to Mog who used a lance (FF6), so for all intents that's the version the lore is based on.

Been asked a couple of times but it seems that the community that want the moogles as playable race are too small for SE to actually implement them in game. I would to play as a Moogle though.

I remember being so disappointed moogles weren't playable in Xi, and even more disappointed there weren't any previous FF races...
