The Moogle Treasure Trove Event For Spring 2023

Finally some news that doesn't lead to thoughts of Web3 games and cryptobros even if the news originates with Square Enix. Starting next Tuesday Final Fantasy XIV will host a Moogle Treasure Trove event until the launch of patch 6.4. The event should run roughly four weeks, but Yoshi-P usually leaves the date open until he announces the launch date on a live producer's letter.

One of the more interesting features are the dungeons and raids awarding the most rewards. As usual, The Praetorium will award 7 tomestones. But the other raid awarding 7 tomestones is The Tower at Paradigm's Breach, the final stage of the YoRHa: Dark Apocalypse raid series. The first two stages, The Copied Factory (5 tomestones) and The Puppet's Bunker (6 tomestones) and the next two highest reward instances players can run.

I am sure that min-maxers will argue that other dungeons produce more tomestones per hour. But with the rewards for running the YoRHa: Dark Apocalypse high, I imagine the developers are trying to help newer players get the 2B gear set, which is in demand for glamour purposes. While the basic 2B set is the most popular, other role specific gear is also popular.

The list of rewards for tomestones is highlighted by the new Porxie earrings for 100 tomestones. The top mounts available for 50 tomestones are the Magitek Predator, Ixion Clarion, and Megalotragus mounts. The list also includes outdoor furnishings like the Red Brick Kitchen, Nomad Tent, and Oriental Wood Deck usable when Island Sanctuaries will allow the placement of up to 90 outdoor furnishing items. Personally, at the lower end of the reward list, the extremely cute Black Hayate, usually available from Shadowbringers' first MSQ dungeon, is a bargain for only 7 tomestones.

I don't have a problem trying to figure out what to do for the last month of patch 6.3, but I am a rather casual player. Still, I never did finish the YoRHa: Dark Apocalypse raid series and some of the rewards, like the Magitek Predator and Ixion Clarion mounts are very tempting. I probably will dive into the Moogle Treasure Trove event for a few weeks until I meet some goals I didn't really know I wanted to fulfill.
