One item in particular stands out. The Scarf of Wondrous Wit, it's been a contest reward for a decade, and now it's just fodder on a grind list. Kind of removes any prestige it had, even if it was just a silly scarf.

I can imagine they might wanna do this so they can move on to new contest rewards, but being an MMO you'd think they'd just want to retire the items so they can remain special for those who did something special to earn them. That's not an abnormal thing to see in MMOs. What's next, the Dalamud Horn?

What's next, the Dalamud Horn?

Didn‘t they bring back some earrings from 1.0 in one of these events before?
Guess everything is possible.

It stood out to me too.
It's a reward for the current Fav Dungeon Sweepstakes they just finished taking entries for.
I pointed this out to my FC mate and he said "huh? But I have one?"
Was the scarf previously available elsewhere?


And I would love it if the Dalamud horn came back <3

The Scarf of Wondrous wit was already a reward once before. I remember grabbing one myself.

I think it's a good thing that more players are being granted access to neat rewards. There's already been a period of exclusivity/rarity for them after all. I spent eight million on the shiver emote, for example, back when it was first added to the game. Now it's available here and more people can enjoy it.

My only criticism is that maybe the scarf should be retired as a contest reward and made a permanent fixture of the Moogle events instead.

They made the scarf obtainable from the Itinerant Moogle back in 2018 so that shine has long since worn off.

Edit: Ah looks like some folks beat me to it lol

I agree with Theodric on this matter, SE has already shown they're extremely selective on what exclusive means at this point so I see no harm in letting older rewards become more available after a shelf life period has passed.

All in all, not bad.. not bad. For a Moogle event. Looks like I might have to play my alt a little bit, so I can get the hairstyles. The 'Legendary Kamuy Fife' is a nice reward, as I still needed to farm Shinryu(?) someday... I'll be able to skip that altogether! Also, now that I have a house, I have a reason to actually get some of this decor.

[StriderShinryu]

I really like that it's a pretty comprehensive list of items this time around, even if it's a bit of a hodge podge. It really was getting to the point with the usual list where there would maybe be one thing I was actually interested in because I either had or had decided I didn't want 90% of what they were offering. I'd much prefer a list like this that actually changed pretty much completely every single time.

[Laerune]

Guess who is getting himself some doggos.

[RyuDragnier]

A heads up about those emotes, those are the rare emotes only obtainable from the rare lockboxes in Eureka Pagos and Eureka Pyros. Meaning this may be your best chance to get those emotes, else you'll have to pay millions of gil on the marketboards to get one.

Personally don't realllllly care about item exclusivity BUT if it I were, I'd wonder why they couldn't just release a recolor for the scarf. OR alternatively (and ideally!) bring back old event rewards, like 1st halloween or starlight costumes as potential grind-ables. People would love that!

..also very curious about some of the furnishings...aren't those incredibly easy to just..make? Why would that cost nearly 1/2 of a fairly grindy mount...
