Crystal War Revisited (11/08/2007)

[EdgeMoragan]

Fancy Spectacles @ 21 crystals turned in -total-

I assume this means you get it at 20.

[Yuffy~]

:D thanks i'm running back with my 3 last then xD

Redeyes @50?

[Shiriokumo]

waf the event ends on the 15th which is the start of the NA fan fest... wotg doesnt ship to retailers till the 20th.

[EdgeMoragan]

40 or 50 is what I'm hoping instead of something crazy

oh damnit I misread.

[LD]

This event ends the same day fanfest begins.

[Myrrial]

So theres three tiers of glasses in total? Sounds like maybe one for taking part, one for grinding it for a bit, and maybe one for being the winning nation.

I take it that these are standard-issue holiday items and provide no benefit beyond "I did a holiday event" stats.

[Suiram]

I'm at my first crystal (Palborough), if I just hang out here at the crystal, will the NM eventually spawn right next to it? Or does it spawn elsewhere in the zone? Likewise for the other zones.

Also, I agree with Wafik's idea, it would be cool if they used these for the initial Campaign standings instead of starting everyone equal or Beastman controlled. They might just need that week from when it ends until launch to tally results and integrate it into Campaign?

Edit: Finally popped right there in the room. I must have arrived just 5-10 min after it had last died.

one notable difference about these rewards from the normal ones is that they're not ra/ex or even ex...

Yeah. People on Carby already tossing them on the AH to try and make a quick buck.

[Lordwafik]

Hmmm that was anticlimatic. Coulda sworn they were meant to be WotG mobs rather than Dynamis mobs, wharr be white shell?

And they're very weak too, I did a 1300 mercy stroke to his face, unstacked (mercy unstacked is usually dogshit).

[kenshyn]

Anyone have an idea of the NM mob levels around the crystal? Any xp? or Lost of xp lol....

[ASG]

Just did the Castle O mob. actually hit pretty hard I wouldnt go their with a lower level job. believe it or not it killed like 4 lvl 75 JPs lol, was hilarious.

[Spira]

they had to use the dynamis one cos I was under the impression that the WotG ones havent been added.

I thought the patch that added them added the new models .

Anyway, this was the palbrough mines one, hit me for 40 tops, I bet the one in Castle O is much harder. The ones in the bigger dungeons i'm sure are way nastier.

[ASG]

The quest is repeatable as well. so far on Sylph the Dandy spectacles have sold for 50k, and some1 sold themselves the Fancy's for 555k. and put em back up on the ah heh.

[crazyrabbit]

Got nothing new after 50 crystals, looks like redeyes might only be for winning nation.

I know someone said it was posted on another forum, but I couldn't find it so, here is some of the moogle text, everything listed after the initial explanation and agreement dialog for Bastok Markets from POLUtils:

Welcome back, adventurer! Let me see how many shards you have retrieved, kupo...?Prompt?

My records show that you have brought your nation a total of ?Numeric Parameter 0? ?Singular/Plural Choice (Parameter 0)?[shard/shards], but I know you're not done yet, are you??Prompt?

Amazing! You've already collected ?Numeric Parameter 0? ?Singular/Plural Choice (Parameter 0)?[shard/shards], kupo! I think I have something extra special for you!?Prompt?

Here's a little something to keep you motivated, kupo!?Prompt?

Why are you talking to me? You should be out there aiding ?Multiple Choice (Parameter 1)?[San d'Oria/Bastok/Windurst]'s fight to prove you are better than those ?Multiple Choice (Parameter 0)?[San d'Orians/Bastokers/Windurstians], kupo!?Prompt?

Congratulations on your victory, ?Multiple Choice (Parameter 0)?[San d'Orian/Bastoker/Windurstian]! Your nation has been selected Crystal War MVN, kupo! As a reward, I shall teleport you to any nation of your choice!?Prompt?

Where would like to go, kupo?
?Selection Dialog?Nowhere.
San d'Oria.
Bastok.
Windurst.?Prompt?

Happy travels, kupo!?Prompt?

Moogles from across Vana'diel have heard of ?Multiple Choice (Parameter 0)?[San d'Oria/Bastok/Windurst]'s recent success in collecting crystal shards, and have come bearing gifts! For the next few days, ?Multiple Choice (Parameter 0)?[San d'Orian/Bastoker/Windurstian] vendors will be selling specialty goods from everywhere imaginable, kupo!?Prompt?

Oooh! It's ?Player Name?!
Your shard-collecting skills have left us Moogles in awe. It's my honor to present you with this special present, kupo!?Prompt?

[ASG]

K just killed the castle O mob again its def not duoable heh, or we just suck. was with a nin friend as red mage and he hit really fast. Seems the higher level dungeons always get 2 shards, lower level areas get 1. kill the NM + touch the thing we get 6 everytime.
