Whew, got 4 of the 8 hour recipes in the oven finally, now I can relax until work is over.

I'm aiming for tickets > Trust moogle > Club first, not sure what else afterwards. I'm going to painfully grind through as much of the saved reserve NRG I have tonight so I can stockpile materials so I don't lose more time on creating cakes.

Someone mentioned the mats stack to 999, does that mean that's the max I can hold, or will > 999 just take up an extra slot?

Don't know if that's true. I posted a screen shot a couple pages back and I had over 2k.

Ah ok, looks like I don't have to worry about capping accidentally.

Actually, the mats stack to 9999 per. Very nice.

How much are the ingredients worth if you sell them? Could be a source of gil after you're doing getting cakes, lol

The components are 1*, so 10 gil per.
The cakes themselves are 2*, so 50 gil per.

I haven't had any boxes finish yet, so I do not know if they are a different rarity tier or not.

So guys, kolobos reef exploration, the Abtu drop 18cakes most of the time.
Abit expensive 15sta, but you could get 150-200cakes per full clear.

 

[CCIE]

linkent - no flour though. I did the math, and Dinardo is still way better...

 

[Aurizen]

So with this new event to get these mogcakes where's the best place to farm?

Any of the 2 Dirnado exploration, just try to get all the random encouters each time.
To help you, look at the encounter info there :

[Valus]

Don't get your hopes up too much about the new JP rates. There is zero guarantee we will also get them.

As for the new event, it's pretty fair despite making us run exploration dungeons. I bought the premium bundle and maxed out the synthesis slots. Gonna try and get everything if possible. Also happy to see the TM moogle as a daily reward!

Should be a pretty good amount of Gil after the event is done then.

Ran a few(3 runs) with just my Locke, and then a couple (2 runs) with a friend plus mine. I saw no difference.

Ah, thanks! Is there another way to get the Trust Mog? only through the mog king?

It does.

 

[DrROBschiz]

There is one for the daily login this month so we can snag 2 total this month

Hard to say one way or the other.

The popular logic is that it does to a minimal degree. But, with the zone dropping wildly different numbers of mats per run, there is no way to control the environment to test this out concretely.

This is a better answer than mine...

I only remember because it was confirmed on a livestream (think I saw it on reddit, let me see if I can find it).

Going to drop some people and then I'll be able to add people to my friends list. My id is 619 647 074 and I have multiple max level characters and currently sharing amarant

 

[rugioh]

I'm not gonna go ham for the TM this time, but I'll offer up my 5* Locke for anyone that needs the help. Holla at me:

426.629.901

 

[Valonquar]

So um, what is the difference between the Boxes and the Cakes? Are the cakes the currency and the boxes just vendor for gil?

I think I'm going to try and level up Locke whilst running the explorations lol I need to get him up! EXP is still shared with max exp characters right?

Yeah, sadly.

Seems like it. The boxes seem to be nothing more than a flag to tell the game how many cakes to award the player when a crafting combine is finished.

Yes, and that is something they need to change. Pretty dumb imo.

Anyone with a Locke would be appreciated as a friend (and anyone on gaf

[Slaythe]

Er no ? It's like this in many games, reason is that you don't end up leeching huge EXP with weak ass characters ...

Be glad the friend system doesn't drain XP.

edit :

YES GOT ANOTHER ZIDANE !!!

Two Cecil too .

I'm set. Pretty much just have to grind TM and wait for 6 stars update. Useless Lightning I won't even care.

Now to wait for FFT and Secret of Mana .

Crazy luck, man. Congrats!

Glad I could take all those Vivis, so someone could get some good pulls off this banner.

 

[Pejo]

I really like this event. Lots of options for rewards, can grind lots of different spots, can work on Hero Rings at the same time, plenty of time to claim rewards. I only wish I had some characters that weren't totally maxed out in XP. Oh well, still getting trust ups.

If I stick it out through the whole duration of the event, looks like I'll be able to get level 2 Cecil Limit Break, as long as I buy at least 9 of the boosters. He's probably the best to use them on at this point, right?

 

[Malakhov]

Bought the 540 cakes recipe for 400 lapis and an extra slot at 100 lapis. Can make 1080 cakes per 3 hours with just one coast run for 500 lapis. Pretty good

 

[Kouriozan]

I feel like I'll have the gold item creation trophy by the end of the event, I guess it'll "refund" the cost of getting all the slots.

 

[Malakhov]

I dont target the main items, just the tickets. 500 lapis for 10 tickets is not too bad then the rest is extra.

 

[Folstern]

This event is BY FAR the best one. I now have zero reason to run PF after purchasing megacrysts so it is all the coast and forge for me. I'm not having a lot of luck with fire megacrysts in the forge so may just concentrate on the coast instead.

I need to pull a decent unit soon because I have so many gigantaurs in inventory. Hopefully I can get one tomorrow with a 1/2 pull or a couple of tickets.

I agree on all points. My gigantaurs take up more space than all of my other units now. I have a good team but I need more! The pain.

 

[TheChillyAcademic]

One thing too to keep in mind is that characters that do have a 6* have limit breaks that I believe reset the level so use the pots judiciously!

 

[shintoki]

I'm pretty content about the two Trust Moogles this month. Means my brand new Zid is getting Double hand in 80% of the time!

 

[ohNOitsRO]

Had to share.. Last day of half summon prices and it finally rolled me a Zidane ;_; so happy

 

[tuffymon]

First time I've noticed it, and I'm not sure if anyone else has said this, but I just had a monster double drop... as in drop 3 items, 2 of which were event items. Forge - double Locke. I didn't notice this happen at all in the coast... suppose it could have been just a 1x oopsie too? /shrug

Overall, the fight had 2 monsters (elemental / bomb), yet I got 5 drops total.

 

[Wired All Wrong]

I dont target the main items, just the tickets. 500 lapis for 10 tickets is not too bad then the rest is extra.

I have to get that mace for my CoD, but yeah, after that getting the tickets take priority. Though I did end up buying the premium recipe and opened up all the slots to craft 4 bundles at a time so I guess I'll try to get as much as I can.

 

[chrono01]

I know I'm late, but four cake recipes in. Now I wait.

 

[DrROBschiz]

Whew finally think i have a fool proof macro

This should help shore up my flour reserves

Im getting so muck of all the other stuff and flour seems to be the only thing that drops from earth shrine

I feel like they set it up this way on purpose

 

[Slaythe]

Crazy luck, man. Congrats!

I had my fair share of Lannis and Vivis too brother.

Shanttottos Zidanes and Cecils were the highlights.

I kinda wanted Garnet, not gonna lie. But I have Lenna so she isn't * needed * ...

edit :

I haven't been keeping up with the events at all.

Can someone fill me in ?

It's great do it.

 

[Kouriozan]

Finally going to do daily pulls starting tomorrow, hoping for Terra or Locke.

 

[TheChillyAcademic]

Do you think it's worth it spending cakes to level Locke to max level? Or just forget it and go after items lol

 

[Valus]

Nah just bring a friend Locke that didn't slack off like yours.

 

[Malakhov]

Thanks to all the gafers who sent me an invite!

 

[TheChillyAcademic]

BITCH GET READY TO DIE

I'm actually somewhat excited for tomorrow; plan on pulling until I get at least one Terra and two Leos...

STIFF UPPER LIP!

 

[CCIE]

I would like to get a Leo or a Locke tomorrow... hope RNG is with me
