There is equal chance to get any of the items in the loot tables. Once an item is picked from the loot table the game checks if it was a food item. If it is the player is given the item. If it is a rare and exclusive item, the game will check the player's inventory if they already own it. If they do, it is removed from the loot table (the player cannot own a rare item twice) and the game picks again. The picking ends when the player can be awarded a food item or a rare + exclusive item the player doesn't already have in their inventory. This means that it is a good idea to keep rare + exclusive in your inventory to increase the chances of obtaining rare + exclusive items that the player doesn't already own.

The exception is Silberkranz. If the player already owns the item and the game attempts to award it, the NPC will say that their inventory is full and to come back when they've sorted their inventory, even if there's room in the player's inventory. The player cannot re-obtain the item and will miss out on a reward (the game won't roll again as it normally would). This could be counted as a bug.

===Own all 3 tokens simultaneously===
If the player owns all 3 tokens at the same time and speaks to the token redemption moogle, the moogle will offer the player to trade all 3 for a big reward. It is recommended '''NOT''' to accept. The Dream Bell can be obtained via a single token and the player will typically repeat the quest for the rewards so by the time the player has the items they like they will most likely also have a Dream Bell. Once the player has it via those means, then the player can trade all 3 tokens at once and get the Dream Bell +1 instead.

Event Summary

This is a guide to the Starlight Celebration 2023.
The event consists of four mini-quests.

All but the Smilebringer quest reward you with a different gift token key-item. Redeeming these tokens with the Token Redemption Moogles, will reward you with items. For details, please see each mini-quest section.

Please note, that some quests can only be completed once per ingame day.

Event Moogles

For this event, there are three different type of Moogles - unfortunately, they are all called Moogle. We have the following Moogle categories:

Vendor Moogles

There are two Moogles in each city. Each Moogles has its own wares - make sure you check them both.

Locations
Wares
Moogle 2
Items: Prices:
Snowman Knight 10,000
Snowman Miner 10,000
Snowman Mage 10,000
Snowman Cap 5,000
Fortune Fruits 777
Goblin Chocolate 50

Quest Giver Moogles

There are also two quest giver Moogles in each city. Each Moogle is responsible for one quest. Below are their locations:

Token Redemption Moogles

These Moogles will hand out rewards for the Tokens you can get from the Mini-quests. The locations of the Moogles can be found below:

There is equal chance to get any of the items in the loot tables. Once an item is picked from the loot table the game checks if it was a food item. If it is the player is given the item. If it is a rare and exclusive item, the game will check the player's inventory if they already own it. If they do, it is removed from the loot table (the player cannot own a rare item twice) and the game picks again. The picking ends when the player can be awarded a food item or a rare + exclusive item the player doesn't already have in their inventory. This means that it is a good idea to keep rare + exclusive in your inventory to increase the chances of obtaining rare + exclusive items that the player doesn't already own.

The exception is Silberkranz. If the player already owns the item and the game attempts to award it, the NPC will say that their inventory is full and to come back when they've sorted their inventory, even if there's room in the player's inventory. The player cannot re-obtain the item and will miss out on a reward (the game won't roll again as it normally would). This could be counted as a bug.

Rewards

Bell-themed Gift Token Snow-themed Gift Token Star-themed Gift Token

Own all 3 tokens simultaneously

If the player owns all 3 tokens at the same time and speaks to the token redemption moogle, the moogle will offer the player to trade all 3 for a big reward. It is recommended NOT to accept. The Dream Bell can be obtained via a single token and the player will typically repeat the quest for the rewards so by the time the player has the items they like they will most likely also have a Dream Bell. Once the player has it via those means, then the player can trade all 3 tokens at once and get the Dream Bell +1 instead.

Mini Quests

Below you can find more detailed instructions on each mini quest. All but one quest can only be done once every ingame day.

Smilebringer quest (Kiddie presents)

Objective Make the children happy and hand out presents to maximize fame.
Starter Smilebringer NPCs
Reward(s) Dream Hat +1 (Fame 9 required)
Repeatable Once every ingame day

Walkthrough

  • Additionally, offer them any of the celebration toys you were awarded or buy them from event moogles. The Present for Kiddies will provide more fame than the celebration toys. If the child doesn't accept the items, you weren't wearing a Dream Hat or you've already reached maximum fame.
  • Smilebringers will offer a Kiddie Present every day starting from 0:00 (in-game).

Obtaining the reward

  • Place a tree of any nation inside your mog house.
  • Max out your fame by giving Kiddie Presents and celebration toys to children.
  • Wait at least one Vana’diel day.
  • Talk to your Moogle.
  • You will receive a Special Present that when opened contains a Dream Hat +1.

If at any point you wait a day and the moogle fails to offer you the gift, move your tree and wait again.
