Racetrack Betting

  • North Beach
  • Races last about 4 minutes
    • Depends when the final runner finishes
  • Betting times start at 5:00 , 11:00 , 17:00 , 23:00 (In-game clock times)
  • Races start 1 in game hour after betting starts -- 6:00 , 12:00 , 18:00 , 0:00
  • Speak to Racing Moogle during the betting period to bet on one of the four NPC racers
  • When placing a bet with Racing Moogle , you know it was successful if you get the dialogue: "So be it! Come and see me after the race. Good luck!" If you did not get that message, then you need to talk to Racing Moogle again to lock in your bet (probably due to there being a huge influx of players placing bets at the same time).

Goldfish Scooping

Goldfish Scooping is a mini-game that can be played during Sunbreeze Festival. It is a special type of fishing where your objective is to accumulate Goldfish Points by catching and trading these golfish to Special Event NPCs.

Locations

There are four locations where you can participate in the event. At each location is an NPC who sells event-related items and hands out rewards. Each NPC is sitting near the edge of a small body of water in which the goldfish may be caught.

  • Super Scoops can be purchased for 100 gil each by choosing the "I want to buy a scoop" option, or in exchange for points obtained from trading fish (see below).
