3rd quest of this Moonfire Faire is ridiculous!

Although this was picked up by a user in this thread already, we have an update from the dev. team on this topic that we'd like to share.

First of all, please accept our most sincere apologies!

We are urgently looking into countermeasures to address these issues.
That said, we will need to confirm that any fixes do not affect any other content or processes, as this could potentially lead to issues that could render FFXIV unplayable over the weekend.
We need to be very careful with these tests, so we expect the fix to be ready at the start of next week at the earliest.

Once the timing and details have been determined we will be sure to update you all!
Once again, we sincerely apologise to everyone who has been looking forward to this event.

We are working with all haste to address this. Thank you for your patience!

Well, I have already finished the event but I thank you anyways that you are being so swift, good job.

Thanks for the fast response!

While on this topic, could please pass the message that it would be good to give it more thought in future events and permanent content to how they may be played in low and high population scenarios? Both should be expected by now after different experiences with open world content, such as hunts and fates in past events. Also to think about what kind of griefing may happen and what can be done to avoid such situations. Sometimes it seems the dev team thinks too highly of the player base, and while that may be true for a large part of the community not everybody plays nicely, and that should be expected too.

I don't typically jump aboard the SE complain train, but jeez I am disappointed in this event.

Still, could be worse :-)

Person complaining: "I'm going to wake up early and log in to complete the event as quick as possible"
Everyone Else: "I'm going to wake up early and log in to complete the event as quick as possible."

And people wonder why things like this happen. Just relax and have patience, it will thin out. I just logged in got to that quest and guess what? There was no one there doing the bombs...The problem comes when everyone decides to do the same thing at the same time.

I am rather disappointed the headgear reward was a coronet....instead of the actual mask the Posing Rangers wore.

You know you can always remove your armor and accessories then buy a cheap weapon. Work for me.

Just the fireworks. Everything else is on the mog station, so don't get your hopes high to get them from in-game vendors ever again.
