    Wasted a stack(99) of cookies and a shitload of random junk on both ranchers in s.gustaberg and w.saruta. No caps at all.

    So I just read on the other wiki that the New Year's Gift item can be in one of nine different languages. The only language other than English that I know is Spanish, and I was quite surprised to read "Feliz Ano Nuevo!"

    Happy New Anus to all!

    Is it actually like this in-game? I'd hope an error like this is just a mistake on the wiki... For those that don't know, the correct text should be "Feliz Año Nuevo!"

    Makes soloing really easy if you ahve 1 r/e item. You can trade it endless times and you get soem sweet buffs...

    also after trading R/e item 6 times, I then got all 4 snowmen and the new years gift in a row when I started trading normal items...

    I think possibly you can only get milk or cap when the NPCable value of what you've traded them exceeds a certain amount. After getting snowmen (had forgotten to take these out of NPC) i traded a bunch of cookies and bretzels with nothing, then I tried trading 20 at once and got milk > new years gift > new years gift before I ran out of stuff. Back in town resupplying and going to try that again for chance of caps.

    To anyone who got the cap, did you get it from the buffalo or the ranchers? I am wondering if that list of items on the description page is there for a reason.

    It seems random, I got a Lycopodium Cap in W Sarutabaruta by trading a Rarab Tail to a Rancher and a friend got one by trading a 2leaf Mandra-leaf to a Rancher.
    I can't seem to get a New Years Voucher no matter what I do, cause the quest in port Windy from last year is there. The one where u bring a Taru-kid a Voucher and get some sort of club which equipped lets you do the Airship quest that gives you an awesome painting for your mog house.
    Sigh I really want that painting >.<

    I never got my copy of Hoary Spire either and I spammed around trading the Ranchers for a New Year's Gift

    I traded approx. 150 of the cheaper ninja tools before getting all 3 snowmen and a new year's item, but didn't get any of the caps.

    What the fuck!? The mandy hats are not wearable? This event blows harder than hurricane Katrina.

    They are bottle caps. It would look pretty silly if they were equippable.

    For Whorey Fire

    -Travel from Jeuno to Windy or Windy to Jeuno on Airship.

    -Find NPC Dilauriome on the West side of the upper deck. Talk to Dilauriome while having the Battledore equipped. Bring him two Black Ink and one Bast Parchment. He'll make one on the spot for ya

    Yes, but to get the Battledore you need to trade the kid a New Year's Gift, therein lies my problem

    Any reason to care about this event if your MH is just used for storage?
