Maybe that's their way of dealing with the exploit. You can no longer predict what item you'll receive from the two the NPC shows you.

**Kaisha** · 2013-05-23 13:48

Hq and nomad this time, still got nq ash. Bit annoyed that it's completely random. Was hoping it was just a 1/9 chance.

**Prothescar** · 2013-05-23 15:51

So what exactly is the deal with these Oblivious Adventurers, then? You pick a random zone, then choose which item you want returned and it has a chance to give you a Nomad Moogle Rod/Redeyes/Rolantaruberrywhatever?

**Kaisha** · 2013-05-23 17:03

That's the jist of it. Some of us are just trying to see if there's a 'right' combo of NPC/zone to pick though which I guess would at best only improve you odds of getting the item.

I Just want my god damn moogle rod to go with my costume/shield.

I've had chocobo+1 shield on, maybe I have to be wearing nothing but the Moogle shield since they are Oblivious.

someone had the right idea previously, but you need a friend to help. Fill your inventory to max and set something in your bazaar kinda expensive. Then go repeatedly until you get the like 2% chance of the special item *not* showing in the two shown examples. Then STOP! and have a friend buy from your bazaar to free up space and let you accept the rare item. It will take forever and it is a lot of work- but at least you get the item.

Dammit, got the Ash club before checking the thread! Will definitely try tomorrow if it's not fixed!

**LuminaryXion** · 2013-05-23 19:34

Unfortunately it appears to be fixed. Previous we could get what we wanted within about 30 minutes. Last night I tried for about 3 hours to get the glasses- no luck.

My JBF says that we should be able to get them from the bonanza later, maybe.

Do I have a chance to get it even if I dont wait at all?

Selecting to wait raises the "probability" of receiving better items, but it is basically impossible to eliminate receiving angelwings (or unless the game checks to see if you get an item you already have and just rolls straight to the angelwing reward). It is possible to obtain belts without waiting, but my advice would be to wait -> choose -> wait -> choose; repeat. I don't think it is completely random, I think there is a definite bias to receiving fireworks without waiting, but people have been statistically lucky. You can DB the gold moogle belt between characters on the same account, so if you have any, I suggest you also do that.

I received the redeyes today on one of my mules, but I have no clue if it is intended to be like the moogle waiting game (completely random). I selected East Sarutabaruta -> headgear, the character showed me dandy spectacles -> fancy spectacles. It seems like if the Oblivious Adventurer ever shows you the correct reward, you will NOT receive that item. I have no clue. I also have no clue if wearing any of the moogle guard (+1) or chocobo shield (+1) influences your chance getting the intended item.

damnit. seems like they fixed this one?
did they patch previewing the item? cos if so then it'd mean you can't d/c to work the RNG right?

i wish they just gave it a higher % rate. this is ridic

**Sofo** · 2013-05-24 02:45

Ugh. ._. Why would SE "fix" this. It's not like an aesthetic item is going to make a difference whatsoever!

**Slycer** · 2013-05-24 11:35

These are all rare items that they've only given out in mog bonanzas and community team events, I don't think they intended for everyone to be able to get one. But yeah, the randomness is kinda silly.

**Auspice** · 2013-05-24 16:56

I'm still waiting for them to create a 2nd way to win a damn Chocobo Beret. >_> I'm 0/9 on all 3 of my chars with each one trying for a different item.

Trigun · 2013-05-24 17:40

Tried today in Windy with only Mog Shield on still got ash club nq.

**SephYuyX** · 2013-05-25 10:51

hq ash, nq rod, got ash.

**Kaisha** · 2013-05-25 15:38

0/9 here also, and always same response from every NPC, so I'm guessing that zone selection is just fluff.

**Sofo** · 2013-05-26 11:41

omg, just got it! Hadn't tried in San D'Oria or at least not ever since the event started, and I checked East Ronfaure. His story was about me running away snickering while he was bound. He also showed me an Ash club +1 and a Yew wand +1. Upon seeing those I was like: "blah, not gonna mean anything" but it happened!

Good luck to everyone else trying!

**Malithar** · 2013-05-29 12:07

Just a reminder for anyone that didn't notice the dates for this event, but today is the last day to get your extra reward from the Moogle as well as to attempt for club/headpiece/furniture.

**Draylo** · 2013-05-29 23:00

Last day and Ash club

**Julian** · 2013-05-30 05:57

Terrible fucking event. Oh well.

**The Stig** · 2013-05-30 06:16

The oblivious adventurer should be renamed to obnoxious adventurer
