Why does the Moogle Treasure Trove event give you incompletable weekly challenges?

Yeah it really sucks when your alt is still in Stormblood and is being told to go do 90 raids.

I can get that they want to use mogtomes to encourage players to try new things but there should be consideration taken with MSQ progress for the things that can be asked for. Minimog is usually the same for everyone but they need to adjust that so it's more customized by MSQ progression and definitely need to adjust the weeklies to that.

Classic case of disappointed but not surprised, considering it has been like this the last times as well.

I consider the Mogpendium an incredible improvement for Moogle Tomestone farming. And it would be well suited to motivate people into unlocking side content they might have yet avoided, thereby getting a wider duty pool for roulettes and helping with queues. Sadly, it cannot achieve this if the weekly challenges are entirely out of reach because the game fully ignores MSQ progress. A sprout in ARR is hardly going to speedlevel to Endwalker in a week to unlock a normal raid.

Here are some examples from my own alts.

MSQ Progress: 2.1



MSQ Progress: Close to the end of 3.0


MSQ Progress: 3.5


Meanwhile my 7.0 character gets mandatory 2.0 duties. I am very glad they exist in the pool precisely because it helps my alts with farming, don't get me wrong, but it's not exactly a thing a veteran needs encouragement for unlocking it...


Now, I am playing since Shadowbringers and these are just alts. Half of the rewards can be gathered or bought by my main and just handed over, who cares. But I am not complaining for my own sake. Every single one of these ARR and HW characters could be a legitimate sprout, maybe even free trial which would remove the PvP option as well. Imagine you just started playing, are having fun, then see an event offering you rewards you otherwise are not able to achieve for at least several months or a year or two. And then the game tells you "well, there's Ocean fishing and the Gold Saucer, I guess, have fun jumping over a lot of pine cones for a month!" I don't know, it would feel pretty disappointing for me.

The Mogpendium or Moogle Tomestone events as a whole look to me like one of these things that are a really awesome idea and I'm glad they exist but at the same time seem like the devs didn't really make up their mind about what they want to achieve with it, and how to get there.
