Moogle Treasure Trove - An irregular popup event

[disturbedcobra]

I'm definitely going to farm for the Answers orchestrion roll. Want that so bad.

I mean I'm pretty sure the mats for that is easily bought or farmed and crafted by almost anyone. I'm just saying.

Two of the music pieces for it are over 200k each on my server. Not paying that much for them. I'm not like people that find making money in this game easy. It's not easy for me. So I'd rather farm for the whole thing.

I'm looking at the rewards for this, and oof, most of them I already have. The only things I would really go for is the Pegasus mount and riding maps, but as its been said before, there are easier ways to get those riding maps. I don't like what they've done with this, but I'd like for them to keep this permanently, with more rewards from old content being added, perhaps even old ARR event stuff. Something like this could easily reward people in the long run, and would be worth keeping around.

[Crushnight]

I've had an idea(ik it's shocking me too) what if instead of the current rewards(except the diadem stuff) they gave out all seasonal event stuff it would be free advertisement for mog station stuff for when the event is over while giving every new player a shot at getting the stuff for free briefly

You can make like 200k a day doing dailies though.

On top of needing the faded copy of Answers itself, the recipe also calls out for two other faded copies that are used for their own respective orchestrion music scrolls. Those two other scrolls are dropped from Lv50 raids that still own unsynced level 70's, especially T9. It is also a 60 2* recipe requiring a Master Alchemist IV.

A crafter in possession of these scrolls will have to make the choice to use them to craft up Answers, or get the T5 and T9 scrolls twice. Flat out purchasing the faded copies will cost you around 500k - 1mil, with Nael's drop being the most expensive of the three. The Answers music scroll itself also averages just a little under 1 mil. This event, is probably the easiest way to get Answers so long as you have the PoV that grind =/= challenge. Basically, you can grind the gil, grind the tomes, or farm the content. Either way, Answers remains a highly demanded orchestrion roll of one of the best tracks in the game that isn't easy to acquire no matter how you go about it^^

snip.

I'm not exactly sure what's hard to understand about this. Its incentive for veteran players to help newer players with MSQ related duties. If you have everything that you can buy from the vendors then dont do it?

It would kind of defeat the purpose of just chain running the dungeons unsynced solo since the primary goal is helping new players.

They didn't even have to do this. People will complain no matter what I guess.

[Gemina]

I echo Selova, and think this event is to help newer players. If it weren't, I think more duties would be available such as from HW content. I'm not surprised that those forging the path of least resistance are already calculating how to go about acquiring the most amount of tomes in the least amount of time, so I can expect nothing but Crystal Tower in alliance roulette for the next month for sure. It's pretty much that way now, so no biggie. Because of that though, I am not so certain that players trying to get through low level dungeons and Castrum/Prae actually get an increase to the amount of veterans queueing into those instances.

It's also quite clear that obtaining everything on this list is not the intention. The pool of items consists of a wide range of loot from various content in the game: Diadem, Hunts, EX primals, Raids, Beast Tribes; the only one that's really missing from content not everyone does is PvP. This gives players who don't run that content a chance at some of those rewards, and those who do run them can just take these items off of their list and focus somewhere else.

My only gripe is it's only for a month. This feels like something that should be around longer, or come around once per patch cycle.
