Patch 7.4 Moogle Treasure Trove Starts Next Week!

With the North American Fan Festival coming soon to Final Fantasy XIV, why not hype yourself up with some Moogle Tomestone farming before Patch 7.4 ends? The next Moogle Treasure Trove event begins Tuesday, March 31st at 1:00 AM PDT!

Just like the last few Moogle Tomestone events, this one features Shadowbringers rares and brand-new Mogtome exclusives.

• Best Mogtome Exchanges
• Best Ways to Farm Mogtomes (EXP or time-saving)

How Long is the Moogle Treasure Trove Event?

FFXIV’s Moogle Treasure Trove events usually end before the next major patch cycle releases. From Tuesday, March 31st until April 27th, players can earn Irregular Tomestones of Aphorism. These Irregular Tomestones (also known as Mogtomes) are exchangeable for collectable items.

With no delays, Patch 7.5 is expected late April, giving you ~4 weeks to complete the event. You have until:

• Patch 7.55 to obtain Irregular Tomestones of Aphorism from the Mogpendium
• Patch 8.0 to exchange for items from Itinerant Moogles

Best Mogtome Exchanges in Patch 7.4

For Patch 7.4’s Moogle Treasure Trove event, players can obtain the following notable items:

For the full exchange list, check out the official Moogle Treasure Trove event page.

Which Items are Hard to Get?

Most of the items mentioned are difficult to obtain nowadays, due to the following reasons:

• No active queues nor recruitments anymore
• Random loot drop (such as 8-player duties or Treasure Maps)
• Large time commitment (such as Field Operations, Hunting, or many weeks of Unreal Trials)
• Only available from this event or past events (from many years ago)

One surprising addition to the list is the Magic Bucket minion. While this minion is quite familiar to Big Fishers, the drop rate is entirely RNG. You can either get it on your first try, or take many hours to watch it slip away. Feel free to check out Fruity Snacks’ video on how to catch the Magic Bucket!

…oooor you can just buy it off the Market Board. That works too. 😅

Also consider picking up the Emerald Gwiber Trumpet and Blood on the Wind Orchestrion Roll! Castrum Marinum (Extreme) is not known to be enjoyable, even un-synced. If you weren’t able to pick up the item(s) when the content was current, now is the time.

Content-Locked Rewards

A lot of the Triple Triad cards are locked behind completing side-content from past expansions. Here are the most notable ones for this event:

• Both the Namazu Card and Kojin Card are available once you unlock their respective Triple Triad Opponent NPCs
  • Namazu Card requires the Lv. 64 quest “Criminal Phrenology”
  • Kojin Card requires the Lv. 62 quest “Out Most Venerated Ancestor”
• Diamond Weapon Card is available once you complete the Lv. 80 quest “Duty in the Sky with Diamond”

Best Ways to Farm Irregular Tomestones

There are four primary ways to farm Irregular Tomestones of Allegory:

• Standard Objectives: Complete regular duties, Ocean Fishing, or Gold Saucer GATEs.
• Weekly Objectives: Complete 1 random standard objective.
  • Resets every Tuesday at 12:00 AM PST / 01:00 AM PDT.
• Minimog Challenges: Complete 1 of 2 random objectives*.
  • Resets every Tuesday at 12:00 AM PST / 01:00 AM PDT.
• Ultimog Challenge: Complete 1 objective at any time during the event.

Remember: you can only obtain Irregular Tomestones in an unrestricted party if the “Level Sync” duty setting is turned on. You can check what duties, objectives, or challenges are available by accessing the Mogpendium in your Collection window under the Duty tab.

If you haven’t obtained the Mogpendium yet, you can speak with an Itinerant Moogle in the following cities:

• Limsa Lominsa Lower Decks at (X: 9.4, Y: 11.6)
• New Gridania at (X: 12.4, Y: 12.1)
• Ul’dah, Steps of Nald at (X: 9.6, Y: 9.1)

I Want A Lot of EXP and Mogtomes

Try doing your daily roulettes for Main Scenario (MSQ) and Frontline.

• Main Scenario Duty Roulettes give 4 or 7 Irregular Tomestones of Allegory every ~20-30 minutes.
• Frontline Duty Roulettes give an average of 4 Irregular Tomestones of Allegory every ~15-20 minutes.
• If you are queuing alone, you can set Join Party in Progress under Duty Finder Settings. On average you will get all of the Irregular Tomestones and some/all EXP (depends on duty progress).
• Need to level Fisher? Try Ocean Fishing in Limsa Lominsa. Each boat arrives bi-hourly, takes about 21 minutes total, and rewards 5-10 Irregular Tomestones of Allegory (depending on your final score). The EXP you get is relative to your level.
  • You MUST score at least 2,000 points to obtain irregular tomestones.

I Just Want Fast Mogtomes

• Complete your Ultimog, Weekly, and Minimog Challenges.
  • Ultimog Challenge rewards more than 50 Irregular Tomestones. Clears in half the time you’d need to farm the same amount via standard duties. Only available once per event.
  • Weekly Objectives rewards 20 Irregular Tomestones per week. For new players, these objectives may feature content you haven’t unlocked yet. Averages 80 Irregular Tomestones total per event.
  • Minimog Challenges rewards 10 Irregular Tomestones each week. For new players, these objectives may feature content you haven’t unlocked yet. Averages 40 Irregular Tomestones total per event.
  • Both Weekly Objectives and Minimog Challenges take about 5-20 minutes each per week. It depends on what the objectives are.
• PVP remains the fastest way to obtain Irregular Tomestones, as each duty averages between ~15-20 minutes.
  • Rival Wings is highly recommended after your daily Frontline roulette, as matches require fewer people to queue.
  • Rival Wings also has a higher chance of winning (which rewards 5 Irregular Tomestones), as matches can’t end in draws.
  • You cannot obtain Irregular Tomestones from Crystalline Conflict.
  • If you are queuing solo, you can also select Join Party in Progress under Duty Finder Settings.
  • Also, the PVP Series will end soon! This is an amazing way to get PVP Series EXP AND Irregular Tomestones!
• Ocean Fishing makes this list too! While you can only join every other hour, you get approximately the same amount of tomestones as an average Frontline roulette in PVP.

Based on the official event page, the community speculates we may not be able to farm The Aurum Vale with Blue Mages this event. Perhaps it’s time to try something new 👀.

Are you ready to finish your collection of Gwiber Trumpets? I’m most excited to exchange for the various 50-tier items — they’re quite difficult to obtain normally!

Be sure to mark your calendars, Warriors of Light!
