Moogle Treasure Trove - An irregular popup event

[disturbedcobra]

I do but if Carnivale is anything like brawlers guild from WoW, I know I'm most likely going to suck at it.

I actually did it for the first time the other day and it isn't that bad. XD Well I only did the first like 5 of them, lol. What I like on it though is that you can single out mobs and not have to figh them all at once. XD If there are three mobs, you can single target them one at a time. Also some do require to use specific movesto make things go faster and what not. While each act also has specific achievements that can better increase your overall score for that act when you complete the achievement in said act. Like one achievement is granted if you use water-based moves and unaspected moves only. ^^

Just chipping away at weekly B-rank hunts over time is enough to get the riding maps eventually.

You can't grind it fast, but you're guaranteed to get there, and without too much actual time investment, especially if you get an out-of-game map of where the spawn locations are.

Also even if you're not interested in the daily hunts, still pick up the mark bills when you remember, and just do any that you come across while going to other places.

The worst thing about this by far is the 'join in progress' restriction. This is going to hurt a ton of players trapped in a party waiting on a tank or healer. So few people check this off to begin with.

I really do question where my sub money goes sometimes...

That's actually a good point (I had missed this when I skimmed the page earlier). I don't personally tend to get too many in-progress runs these days, but I can see that hurting a lot of groups in the next month.

That said, the real heroes here are the people who buy the maps just to experiment and share the results with the rest of us. (edit: actually, from the description they just look like thief maps.)

I believe they are just Gazelle maps with an assured portal.

You're already given a portal whenever you use a thief so it would make sense to me if it is just that. Would seem redundant otherwise if it was a Thief.

with the rewards its not worth doing tbh the only thing kinda worth it are the catfish earings but im not going outta my way to farm tomes 4 a glam i might use once a year lol

[kidalutz]

More tomestone farming.

Thoughts?

I think it's mathematically impossible to farm enough tomestones to get all the items in the time given.

[Fawkes]

Seems like SE still doesn't want me to get those mount speed upgrades.

(How long does it actually take to gather 99 Diadem spoils for the Pegasus?)

3-4 hours if you're the only one there.

Diadem is a pretty fantastic place for very specific things.


Had hoped we might get some of the aquapolis-only orchestrion rolls in this event (or anywhere).

I’m pretty sure this was meant for newer players who would be doing all of these instances anyway and don’t have easy access to the majority of the items on the board. If that’s then case then this was never meant to be grinded out and people are making a bigger stink about it than it should be.

I mean it wouldn't be as bad if they didn't lock a new item behind it. Or I wouldn't be as disappointed in this if the time frame wasn't so short. I feel like I have to rush it. :x

It's like an event tailor made not for me

I think you mean tailor made for no one.

The event itself perplexes me.
It's an event that only lasts a month, where some of the rewards are rare, most of them aren't rare, all of them are overpriced, & at a time when people are preping for 5.0, and unsubbing during a content drought.

In reality if they wanted to make it a catch up event, and not a grind - things would have costed less then half of what they are set up as now.

No undersized parties, and no joining parties in progress also screws people grinding the content, and no grinding it over.
