What on Vana'diel is going on outside? What does a moogle have to do to enjoy a simple afternoon nap, kupo!?
Hm? The town square is abuzz with throngs and throngs of people. I wonder what's brewing, kupo?

Uh-oh. I totally forgot all about the Egg Hunt! It...it's starting today, kupoooooo! I almost slept through the job again! How could I forget my most important task to gather and introduce egg-citing episodes from our brave adventurers? If I don't get to the Mog House Management Union (MHMU) soon, the boss will be so angry that he'll use my poor nose in place of a festival egg, kupo!

Hurry here to learn how to participate in the festival.
And here, to read "My Egg-citing Episode" submissions from fellow adventurers, kupo!

*The festival will be held from March 13, 2008 at 01:00 until March 24, 2008 at 01:00 (PDT).

The Egg-hunt is on!
Selected Egg-citing Episodes Now Available for Viewing! (03/13/2008)

With the commencement of this year's Egg Hunt Egg-stravaganza, citizens of all three nations have burst out from their jubilance-inhibiting shells! There is honestly nothing more fun and satisfying to us moogles than to assist and guide our egg-hunting enthusiasts on their way, kupo!

So, Dearest Master...
What ingeniously innovative strategies will you employ to hunt for eggs this year?
Will you be tempted to trade with your friends?
Buy them in bulk at bazaars?
Or perhaps, simply seek charity and shout for favor from random strangers?

With the following fabulous furnishings available as prizes for collecting the right combination of "initial eggs," we trust all our adventurers will not lack for motivation. I wish you every success in your hunt, kupo!

- Melodious Egg
Beautifully embellished in gold by the San d'Orian royal family's very own master chaser, this ornate musical box reveals not a single shell fragment of its humble egg origin. Its hauntingly sweet melody will surely have tears welling up in your eyes, kupo.

- Clockwork Egg
Is it an egg? Is it a timepiece?
The Clockwork Egg is a fine example of form and function in harmony. The most accomplished of all smiths at Bastok's renowned Metalworks have come together to produce an outer shell of reinforced steel for this nigh indestructible egg-based timepiece, kupo.

- Hatchling Egg
The brainiest brains of Windurst's Rhinostery breathed life into this life-like raptor egg that promises maximum cuteness with minimum maintenance. Its menacingly convincing growl will add a new ambience to your Mog House that can not be had from other furnishings, kupo.

[Sepuku]

Yay new egg-stravaganza
Where is the easter Bunny

[Dexy]

IT'S ON!

[miokomioko]

Hatchling egg is surprisingly boring... just occasionally blinks.

Clockwork egg's time matches in-game time... weee~

Melodious egg didn't do anything on the hour... perhaps music at 0:00 :/

EVENT OVER

[Deftscythe]

Is it possible to get the Jeweled Egg from last year?

[miokomioko]

Ok Melodious Egg played a gay little tune I couldn't quite make out at 18:00... so every 6 game hours.

[byte]

yay! free money!

[Fhqwghads]

Wtf this update is going to suck... oh wait, never mind. Still in "update notes" mode.

Say "egg hunt" out loud 10 times fast. Yeah, that's about the only entertainment I think I'll get out of this thing.

[Vigilia]

If you have the Egg helm from last year, take it off the storage NPC or the first "initial 3" will re-reward you with the tit hat.

Back to collecting V I G....

[Frenzy]

Why'd you want to collect VIG again, you'll only get Chocobo Tickets and Coloured Drops.

[Garion]

so what were the combo's for the new eges?

[Frenzy]

so what were the combo's for the new eges?

Region, like the last Furnishing Eggs.

[Vigilia]

Why'd you want to collect VIG again, you'll only get Chocobo Tickets and Coloured Drops.

What are the combos for the new eggs then? The POL post just says:

With the following fabulous furnishings available as prizes for collecting the right combination of "initial eggs,"

7 of the same, Initial straight or the regional 5-letter combos like previous years?

EDIT: Nvm, beaten. Time to collect regional combos then. Oh question: Do initial straight and 7 of the same still reward the throwing eggs???

[Raineer]

Can't get on the game atm, is it possible to get the +HP or +MP eggs anymore, or is this just furnishings?

[Trollox1]

Is it possible to get the Jeweled Egg from last year?

I want that one real bad only because its light element, I believe. I GoldS so i'll put it next to my stack of fake gold and seduce the taru when they enter my mog house. Then we can get on a tarutaru stool and I'll bend her over my millionaires desk.

[Vigilia]

Spelling out NORVA just gave me last year's Wing egg... kerrist this isn't going well for me this year.

[JigglyJam]

Can't you trade eggs or something to the moogle to get more? I tried trading a regular bird egg to it and it was all "Screw you, these eggs are expensive!" Is it a boiled egg youhave to trade?
