    Were you all surprised to see a Duskwight Elezen for the Moonfire Faire event?

    They're like unicorns in this game, if you see one you're lucky to ever see one at all.

    It was a pleasant surprise. We had matching hairstyles.

    It felt like a waste in multiple directions.

    In one direction, I never like the trite "emotional lessons" they try to squeeze into these seasonal quests. It would have been better to have a two-minute excuse plot of R'fhul turning up and going "cool, there's a new course, let's try it!" – he can still get a harmless bomb to the face and fall off and whatever, and make Majha fret, with no need to introduce new characters that do nothing but stand there.

    And in the other direction, having introduced them, they're such non-characters. No names, no personalities.

    I just skipped the cutscenes, did the course "with my eyes closed", got my stuff, and went back to doing sit-ups in Uldah for 4 hours.

    Time well spent!

    When you deal with human beings, never count on logic or consistency.

    Fluid like water. Smooth like silk. Pepperoni like pizza.

    I'm playing for the story so I don't want to miss it if they do throw in something interesting, or fragments of lore, or whatever. But their efforts to make the seasonal stories deep and meaningful makes them less enjoyable, not more.

    I was more surprised that they had the tribe NPCs there. Didn't expect to see some of the ARR tribe crew there.

    I'm curious as to whether or not they're there if you haven't finished the Endwalker MSQ yet because the tribal relations hadn't really properly smoothed out until then.

    They're not Endwalker bound as my roommate couldn't see them but he had finished Endwalker. The only thing I can think is its the Tribal quests as he hasn't finished the allied story yet.

    The tank role quest honestly should have centered about duskwights.
