Twinkling Treants!

This.

Twinkling Treants!

Also the Ballistar Tournament event was fun. We need another one of those.

^ This.

[Dimmauk]

O come on! That shit took forever to type that out, my hand hurts from it

I thought it looked fun.

Twinkling Treants!

FUCKING THIS.

I have never had so much fun in a seasonal event.. hell maybe one of my highlights of the entire game. I simply do not understand why they haven't repeated this event because it's sooo awesome.

Also the Ballistar Tournament event was fun. We need another one of those.

I would love some more Ballista related events. It's one of the most severely underused features of the game and one of the most enjoyable imo.

Glad someone does ~.~ New Events people, NEW. I'm Mirroring my post on the other forum.

A Moogle who was banished from the Moogle homeland for trying to steal sacred artifacts and rule over the Moogles with Absolute might has returned, and with a Vengeance, kupo! He's hired Beastmen to build Terrible Machines to take down the Moogle homeland, oh my, Kupo, what will we do?!

Moogles Aren't battle ready, Kupo!
You must Help us Adventurers of Vana'diel! Help us defeat the evil Shadowkupo, kupo!

Unfortunately... kupo, Shadowkupo was able to take a few relic from a transport caravan moving them to a safer place... and with them he has become more powerful than us Moogles can deal with! The Artifacts stolen were given to a us as a gift from Altana herself thousands of years ago, kupo! They must be returned and Shadowkupo Stopped! Or all of Moogle Kind will be doomed to serve as Beastmen pets, kupo!

If you help us, We'll even give you some of the Artifacts power!*

*Story behind why the Signet bonuses could be added (Regen/Refresh/Meal/Exp)

The only thing would be it would be incredibly hard to Implement :< alot of programing im sure. but still

Large NM Battles in Existing Zones for all Level Ranged (Twinkling Treants reminiscent)
Augmenting Additions
and a Besieged-Sized Super Battle on the Last day of the Event. (Against Shadowkupo)

Inb4 'There should be a BCNM where we get to fight Sephiroth!!1!'

Someone in the wiki thread (the one linked in the OP, where the SE rep posted) asked for BCNMs against classic FF characters with rewards like buster sword and gun blade.

I read that and the first thing i thought of was the "Inb4" post on this thread.

Thats just hilarious

PvP centric.

If not, make it competitive as fuck.

[Guyverarmor]

As a taru myself, and totally against anti-taru treatment, I would be totally for firing myself out of a cannon! Would be awsome to see myself flying in the air.

[Tempyst]

I can't imagine Twinkling Treants would be so much fun now that we're not all a bunch of level 20s who, until that point, had not fought anything more threatening than a goblin. I mean, Twinkling Treants was really not much more than besieged or campaign but with just the one mob in each zone. Exciting at the time, can't imagine bothering with it nowadays except maybe with the allure of a server-wide reward like the zone teleports we got.

Seconding a PVP style or competitive type event

[BRP]

Tempyst we are comrades now

[Whaleporn]

Kupo! It's that time of year again! That's right, It's Faffest! Grab your third party programs and prepare for fun!

To participate in Faffest:

Talk to one of the moogles in Dragon's aery, Behemoths Dominion, Vale of Sorrows, Caedarva mire, Mt. Zhayolm, and Attowa Chasm! They will give you a magical monster target!

[Marcicus]

Bringing back the Ballista Royale would be awesome.

An event like the level 1 invis thing, where we have to go around and find "augmenting orbs."

Different places have different orbs, which we can figure out. Some of the orbs will be positive enhancements, some of them negative.


Give us a bare piece of armor, whichever piece SE wants to do.


You can place up to 6 augments on your item, and they can be 6 of the same augment, if you go collect 6 of the same orb.

However, for every positive augment you pick, you must also apply a negative augment.


Basically letting us create our own kind of old world abj gear. Want a body with +15 str + 30 att? Go for it, have fun in cauldron as level 1 getting all the orbs, just remember you're also going to end up with something like 30% slow and -15 int, which you'll have to go pick up from quicksand and fei'yin.

I like plow's idea. Like said, create our own abj. but at the same time not making them godlike (30% slow on a earthen-type abj. would be for one.)

The world ballista thing would be great to see as well. I know we have to put out NEW ideas, but cross server PvP was awsome

[Khajit]

Take your pankration monsters and release them into the wild in a special zone where they battle each other and you. Yes i know ffxipokemon sucks. Or even something involving the monsters. make a pokemon spoof perhaps where you enter the safari zone.

Nation based Ballista at LV1 Cap. First place (The Nation with the most total wins) will be able to receive and use Sigil Bonuses (The whole Refresh/Regen/Other stuff Signet has to offer) immediately after the event. Second place will have to wait a few months. The last nation will have to wait a few more months.

Truly the same thing applies to the dungeon crawling. It was so fun because we didn't have maps of those zones, and we certainly aren't really afraid of the big bad mobs anymore

Make the zone inside the walk of echoes and make the event a week to give everyone a preview of what we're waiting on for the end of wotg. That solves the familiarity problems and im sure the gargoyle statues coming to life and ripping people to shreds would qualify as fucking scary.

[Cesaria]

Taru punting competitions... anything involving abuse of tarutaru basically would be good.

Please NOT ANOTHER SPAM FUCKING EMOTES OR HAVE TO TEAM UP WITH A LEVEL 73 GALKA DANCER FEST.
