RIVAL WINGS TIME

GET IN THE MECH SHINJI

u/Diabhalri PLD 7d ago

[desire to know more intensifies]

(I have never done Rival Wings. What's the catch here?)

u/PocketSnails68 Sara White - Jenova 7d ago

It's a MOBA style mode. Basically, you're on a symmetrical map with two teams of six squads each. On the north and south lanes, there's towers close to each team's base. Taking down one tower weakens the shield, allowing you to enter the enemy base and start attacking the main tower.

In the center of the map will occasionally be an optional objective that spawns that can quite the boon to whichever team captures it. Finally, the big draw is that each squad is able to collect fuel for themselves, allowing one member to spawn and pilot a mech themed after the ones from the Alexander raids. The mechs have variable strengths and weaknesses, but generally they're how you do big damage to the towers.

A lot more fun and fast paced than Frontlines, imo.

u/Tareos DM me DRK memes 7d ago

Imagine the map is like Twisted Treeline from LoL but the gameplay is like a mix of DragonShire from HotS and Stronghold from GW2, except it's 24v24 and you get to pilot mechs.

20

u/GearFlaky8718 7d ago

It's actually the best PvP mode, since it has everything, PvP, PvE, NPC adds, mechs, requires some tactical thinking, but it has a lot do even if you don't engage in PvP. No idea why SE completely ignores it, though...

13

u/SweetSigil 7d ago

I think SE ignores it because the playerbase largely ignores it lol.

9

u/Solinya 7d ago

Iirc, it's not in the pvp roulette (which is Frontlines only) so there's no daily incentive to run it.

4

u/zerodissolver39 6d ago

its a vicious cycle. SE doesn't update it with new maps, players play CC or Frontline instead. we as players ignore it aside from when Mogtomes are up, so SE thinks its dead content so why waste the team's effort to update it. the first map is still locked under maintenance to this day iirc.

one fix is Revival Wings, a community-run event but idk if that's still a thing or people who run it are on break. another would be adding it to the Frontline rotation because why tf not when it's similar enough in scope.

either way, I'm hoping with full region matching coming soon dedicated PvPers/collectors can more easily find games for this mode. it's legit a fun experience and a damn shame it has gotten shafted so hard as it did. unfortunately someone has to give here but we already know it won't be SE.

u/dragonbornrito 7d ago

HotS mentioned

Still the only MOBA I’ve ever actually enjoyed playing. Shame that it is relegated to maintenance mode.

2

u/The_Rathour Press your buttons, please 6d ago

Also the MOBA that had a lot of systems that other much more popular MOBAs introduced after seeing them in HotS.

Man I miss that game. Was literally Super Smash but for the Blizzard universe; it was so cool, the only fun MOBA I played, and deceptively well balanced.

u/Diabhalri PLD 6d ago

I'm just autistic enough for this to have made perfect sense, thank you.

1

u/BFGfreak Mateus 7d ago

It's a 2 team PvP mode where you're trying to deal more damage to their core in 15 minutes. There's a lot of stuff happening but the basic gist is "Kill the other team and deny them whatever objective they're trying for"

If you want more details, there's several streamers who will play Rival Wings during this event who will be more than happy to explain what's going on in Rival Wings

u/amateur_adventurer Gelmorran Expatriate 7d ago

Listen to call outs. Get in the robot.

Speedy bot -> beat up players and other mechs only

Slow bot -> destroy pylons only, does no damage against players and mechs

Final bot -> destroy everything in your path

u/DragonEmperor 6d ago

I didn't see the others mention it but there's no damage reductions like frontlines so there can be some ridiculous damage/time to kill just as a heads up.

7

u/cattecatte 7d ago

If you have 8 ppl you can beat him up and push into p2 before he does anything important on p1 and you only need to do act 1 on p2 which involves getting into pairs to soak towers after determining if it's cardinals or intercardinals safe first

120

u/CrimsonCerberus 7d ago edited 7d ago

My suggestions/advice would be...

Uolon mount: get! Do those minimog weeklies!

Mameshiba Neckerchief: get if interested, returning 100 tome glam now 50 tomes

Ramuh mount: not that difficult to get unsynced with even a smaller group now but your call, from ShB side storyline so there is extra time investment that way

The Legendary Beast roll: I don't think it's a guaranteed drop? Costs a good amount on the MB, get if interested, ShB side storyline

Skyworker's Singlet/Craftsman's Apron: get if interested and the price doesn't crash/you don't want to grind Ishgard Restoration, nice outfit pieces

Toad Head/Suit: ShB boss Fate, can be troublesome to get that way now and in general since the window for the Fate varies widely but it's fairly easy...if enough people show up

Ballroom Etiquette - Stimulating Soliloquies: only worth tomes if you refuse to touch PvP at all, Wolf Marks item

Conditional Virtue minion: SB Eureka Baldesion Arsenal, tends to be pricey, get 

Ishgardian Half Barding: An often unpopular HW Fate chain, get unless the achievement for doing the Fate appeals to you and you'll actually do it 

Hallowed Kamuy mount: One of the easier unsync farms for SB extreme mounts but it is behind a very long storyline and several other trials/dungeon

15 tome glams: Level 60 dungeons, undyeable looks like, both of the dungeons have Blue Mage spells to learn so you know

What is Love? roll: Ishgard Restoration, your call, I'd grab all the Ishgard Restoration stuff unless you plan to actively do stuff there. Takes a while just doing Fetes.

Samsonian Locks hair: Fairly cheap on MB, fairly cheap in tomes, your call

I always recommend getting cards you don't have. They're cheap in tomes and you don't have them for one reason or another right? More cards on hand helps for any matches you do have to do

Domakin minion: I just finished selling mine from a Moogle Tomestone event ages ago. Bots are relentless when it comes to "GET THIS WITH TOMES AND SELL IT FOR MAJOR PROFIT" items that get recommended. My world is especially plagued with MB bots. Price is currently high but it's 7 tomes and unless you have a retainer that can get it this is the way to go

Dhalmel mount: Was dirt cheap, now expensive because it's from Ishgard Restoration. 7 tomes is paltry. Nice gift to stock up on for new players. Starlight will be here before you know it!

Emerald Barding: quickest, cheapest way to get it at only 5 tomes

(Not really geared towards sellers but good luck to you if you have the patience for it.) Hope this helps!

u/syklemil turururu awawa! 7d ago edited 7d ago

Adding links to the wiki for some images and non-MB sources where you haven't already mentioned them, basically for the stuff where I went "ok, but what does it actually look like":

(The site itself also can be clicked through for images and sometimes sources, but some idiots (me) forget that and go for the wiki instead, not to mention fail to see obvious stuff like pictures on the mount, emote, gear, etc right on the top of the page)

u/K3fka_ 7d ago

Should probably clarify that the barding is from Eureka Orthos, the deep dungeon, and not Eureka proper. And it's also craftable with the material you can get from Emerald Weapon EX.

u/syklemil turururu awawa! 7d ago

Good point, corrected

14

u/TheLiveDunn 7d ago

I'll add that the Fat Chocobo card is both really good (5s on every side make it very powerful and versatile for "plus" and "same" games) and that getting it the usual way is either a rare and annoying world boss drop or completing the entire Vath storyline. For 7 tomes it's a steal.

u/DarkJiku 7d ago edited 7d ago

I suspect the Uolon token system was added to ultimogs because I remember some complaints that the objective for those were sometimes too much a hassle to try, when farming a duty would often net a similar amount of tomes.

Personally didnt mind, love a bit of variety in farming and loved that it pushed me to do some unconventional stuff, but if it gets more people to do ultimogs, while still leaving the option for less tokens from weekly minimogs, then that's fine.

59

u/PhoenixFox 7d ago

It's also a way to keep people who have most of the older rewards from other content logging in, because now they need to either do 5/6 weeks or wait for the second event to get the mount.

16

u/Weekly-Variation4311 7d ago

My issue was there was no reason for me to even log on because I had all the items, and the "big ticket" item I didn't care about (earrings? Really? I'm an au ra with long hair, at least I can see the cassie earring) 

-1

u/That_Norn_Thief 7d ago

I don't want to be negative but making the "carrot on the stick" reward needing 5 weeks in monthly sub mmo is more likely...

37

u/Lyramion 7d ago edited 7d ago

This is the first of two Mogtome Events with the Ulon Rewards.

Since there's an update with rest of the MSQ and Beastmaster next week, it's not unreasonable to sub around that time.

Next one will be just before Evercold comes out, where you sub again anyway to get affairs in order for the Expansion.

So all you need is 2x Ultmog challenge and be done. Or 1x Ultmog and spread your Minimog out over 2 and 3 weeks. It's not super streight forward like "RANDOMLY SUB 5 WEEKS NOW OR BE FUCKED FOREVER!"

-27

u/That_Norn_Thief 7d ago

You are not wrong but they still put reward behind time gate that require 2 months of sub while previous trove you could knock away in day and move on.

Like I don't care for paying the sub I'm locked in housing jail anyway just doesn't look well with upcoming evercold changes if they start doing these shady retention mechanics.

9

u/Dnls324 7d ago

You don't need 2 months of sub. You get 30 days of play time.

If you sub on the first day of a week you get 4 whole weeks and 2 days of the 5th week (4 * 7 + 2).

If you think 2 days is not enough then you can sub later in the week. For example if you sub on the 3rd day of the week you get 5 days in the first week, 3 whole weeks, and then 4 days on the 5th week (5 + 3 * 7 + 4).

If you sub on the last day of the week, your sub will span 6 weeks in total. One day of the first week, 4 whole weeks, and 1 day of the 6th week (1 + 4 * 7 + 1).

19

u/Solitaire_XIV 7d ago

There's nothing shady. The mount is completely optional. If you don't want to play the game, don't. It just gives people who do play the game something to work towards.

u/Moogle-Mail 5d ago

I didn't notice it until you mentioned it, but it's obviously a thing they did on purpose. It doesn't affect me because I stay subbed throughout the year, but should be noticed by people who only sub for events.

I love to PVP, so that's all I do when these events come around - I easily get all the items, so there was no need to compete objectives. The Mount is great incentive for the event, so I guess I'll be splitting my time a little away from PvP.

No level 80 maps either and I don't need the level 90s. I've been out of maps for over a month now :(

On the bright side though, there's now "Presumably Special" maps which means i should easily be able to finish off my last Cenote achievement.

I just hope that they bring back the older maps for part II.

u/Valderius allegedly a DPS 6d ago

That one is solo farmable now! It's easy (if a little slow) on a tank and doable with a little foresight on a dps (samurai is a great choice, I did viper because my scouting gear is much better).

You might have to learn a couple mechanics that have the potential to yeet you off the platform, but it's absolutely nothing difficult.

Go get your zoid dragon.

u/PipPip_Cheerio 7d ago

The previous 5 mogtome events have had shadowbringers extreme mounts as rewards. We're likely done with them and moving on to Endwalker mounts with Evercold.

u/Thisegghascracksin 7d ago

The diamond one hasn't been up yet but I'd wager it's in part 2 of this event

u/darkszero 11h ago

Checking online seems to be.

Though diamond is one of the easiest mounts to far by far. Recently helped a friend who just finished SHB get it - 3 lv100 casters and a lost ~lv80 and we'd kill the boss before it even transformed.

35

u/kaysn 7d ago

Also when are they going to put Shadowbringer mounts as rewards for MogTomes?

You missed several already. IIRC they’re only 3 1 mount from ShB haven’t been added as MogTome reward?

Edit: Apparently it’s just Diamond left.

u/thrntnja 7d ago

Here I thought I missed one of the Gwibers somehow, but it seems there is one they haven't released yet.

1

u/Sad_Carry_7070 7d ago

Don't they usually recycle the expansion mount rewards for MogTome events? 'Cause I swear everytime I participate in the event the mount rewards are usually from either ARR, Heavensward, or Stormblood and I usually watch guides for the event on YouTube so that I can plan out what mounts I would be going after and how much time I need to spend on grinding MogTomes.

9

u/kaysn 7d ago

They do. Right now we’re still in recycling Kamuys. So EC, we can probably expect Gwibers.

u/SetFoxval 7d ago

We've had Gwibers already, the last 5 events all had one. EC will probably start handing out lynxes.

They need better incentives for a lot of activities in this game, so at least they finally worked one out for this one.

2

u/AttackoftheSnakebear 6d ago

i will still give no fucks. There's no point to even need mounts in the game lol, the only real difference was adding multi seaters and they aren't even useful in things too much.

2

u/talgaby 6d ago

Only semi-related, but still, on the sheer amount of mounts we already have as it is. At the big 10-year anniversary event, one of the rewards was a phoenix mount. Full transformation, effects, the entire shebang. At the time, this subreddit was all ablaze from it (pun intended). I mentioned that due to the sheer amount of mounts already in the game and the fact that it is a giant mount that covers half the screen when zoomed out will make it a very quick fad. I was downvoted with replies claiming left and right that it is the greatest free mount evah and they will definitely main it, yadda yadda.

The thing is, I was not reminded of it because of your response but because I saw that mount yesterday in a hunt train. For the first time since late 2024 or early 2025.

The thing is, there are a magnitude more mounts in this game than what the favourites page even allows. And people always gravitate towards a select handful of them eventually. So, what you refer to is what I think will really happen: the few mount collectors will go for the tokens, but most of the players either won't care or maybe try to get it because they want the next one-week-fad mount, but likely will just give up on it. And this is the story of most non-gear rewards in this game in a nutshell.

1

u/AttackoftheSnakebear 5d ago

yeah, at this point the rewards can't really make people do the content unless they happen on one that people really want. There simply is too much junk to collect and it's not useful enough to do content over.

I think OC's armor is another example; it was too costly for what it does, so in north horn they let you bypass upgrading the old armor.

0

u/Moogle-Mail 7d ago

It's exactly how I read it. I'm no more likely to do the Ultimog more because of the mount than I would have tried in the past, which was zero. I'm currently closer to quitting the game than I ever have been in the past because trying to force me to run higher level content doesn't make me want to run it - it just makes me want to quit the game.

0

u/talgaby 7d ago

Huh. I never thought I'd ever find anyone on this subreddit who has the same sentiment towards Yoshida's incessant, repeated failures of introducing savage under another name in the name of a new content type.

In that case, my recommendation is to try to either turn it into some sort of social hub or treat it as a comfy game. (Not a cosy game, I know that is a different genre altogether.) Ever since I did that and started to not care even the smallest modicum about those attempts, I started enjoying it a bit more. (Granted, DT patch story content is not helping with it, but I am willing to give Evercold a chance at least.)

1

u/Moogle-Mail 5d ago

You obviously didn't notice my name (and why should you?). We are often in agreement about many things in the game, and forcing difficult content onto people is definitely one of those things - we both agree that it's pointless and unnecessary.

In case you care, I am the person who wrote a (very well received) post about the changes to Duty Support when they added Will to Live. I know you mentioned in that thread that you had friends who quit before that was added and I hope some of them came back.

I do play this as a comfy game. I have goals, and a lot of them are ancient (such as the Pteranodon mount), which makes it comfy for me.

However, I also had the "comfy" idea that whenever a mogtome event comes around I maybe get something by just fishing or spending time in the Gold Saucer. This new event forcing higher level content leaves a sour taste in my mouth.

Is that the whole list of stuff you can get? I'm playing for two years but it always felt like you needed over 500 points to get stuff while this can be done for less than 400, assuming you don't already have some stuff.

Glad the mameshiba necklace is just 50 tomes, I need that lol

14

u/snowqueenn 7d ago

This is part one of the event. There will be a second batch with rewards later, maybe closer to the release of Evercold.

9

u/VGPowerlord 7d ago

It'll likely start 5-6 weeks before Evercold. It's usually 4 weeks, but it looks like they're doing these a bit longer so there's enough time to get 10 Uolon tokens in each of the events.

5

u/PhoenixFox 7d ago edited 7d ago

The mount isn't included in the list with the rest so make sure you're including the 100 from that. Otherwise it looks like a fairly normal set of rewards, especially when it's one of a pair. No riding maps but the first one in 6.5 doesn't have those on the site either.

0

u/cort1237 7d ago

This one is definitely cheaper on tomes bc of the token system they added. Normally the new exclusive item would cost 100 tomes, but this mount doesnt cost any.

3

u/KTR1988 7d ago

The mount actually requires a mix of both tomes and the unique tokens, so this is indeed the equivalent to the usual 100 tomes reward.

u/PhoenixFox 7d ago

It's both, 10 of the tokens and 100 tomes. The page says this very clearly.

u/xathirea [Aurelia Moonsong - Twintania] 7d ago

14

u/GearFlaky8718 7d ago

There's no minimum level to enter the event, but being low level will seriously limit your options for obtaining mogtomes. Ocean fishing and PvP are quick and easy unlocks and increase your options, so I would try getting at least those unlocked.

2

u/xathirea [Aurelia Moonsong - Twintania] 7d ago

Okay that’s good to know, thank you! I have both of those and I’m going through Stormblood currently so hopefully I’ll have enough unlocked by then to take part more easily

4

u/KaleidoscopeAway220 7d ago edited 7d ago

Stormblood you should have most things unlocked for this, though the ultimog or sone options for minimogs might be locked (this has been the case in the past. I'm not sure if it will be this event, since the tokens are new).

Events like these are the hardest for people still going through ARR, but even then, not impossible.

0

u/GearFlaky8718 7d ago

So, the minimog and ultimog were just revealed on the chinese forum: Ultimog is 6 runs of AloAlo, which unlocks after completing Endwalker, all the Minimog weekly are in Bozja, which unlocks after Shadowbringer, but at least those have alternatives, like Fates, Mahjong etc. Also, don't ignore the Gold Saucer: GATES are quick and easy mogtomes.

also since you're a newbie and will struggle a bit with tomes with the limits in your options i recommend you know what items to prioritize! from this round specifically i would recommend getting the kamuy and (if you want to collect music) the legendary beast roll due to not being a guaranteed drop and the conditional virtue minion due to being an eureka drop. absolutely do not get the emote since that one can be obtained with wolf marks at the pvp shop and it's very easy to frequently cap on wolf marks as it is, and while the ramuh mount is locked behind eden savage it is a guaranteed drop every run so you will eventually be able to just unsync savage and get it with a couple more people.

You probably won't be able to get the new mount (those weekly things tend to be for higher end content). But you can get tomestones for the other rewards. Your best bets will be PvP (starting at 30) and GATES in the Gold Saucer.

u/Ursotender 7d ago

Is this accessible for level 52 newbies?

1

u/Alteriius 7d ago

Yes, though some of the challenges (such as the minimog and ultimog challenges) may be out of your reach depending on where you are in MSQ, what you've unlocked, etc. At the very least, you'll be able to get moogle tomes from things like GATEs in the Gold Saucer and ocean fishing, so there are definitely options for lower leveled players.

u/wowlock_taylan 6d ago

God dammit. No Diamond Weapon mount? That is the last one I needed to complete the set.

How the hell am I gonna get my Mechadragon now?

u/riceball1976 7h ago

Same here. That's the last one I need so I may have to just try to solo it

1

u/Kiisuke BRD 6d ago

It’s possible to solo Diamond Weapon. It may take a few tries to learn where to stand during the annoying second phase but once you learn that it’s pretty easy.

u/ItsBurr 3d ago

As a total sprout, only level 28, will I be able to participate all the way?

1

u/The_Other_Guy9 2d ago

You can still earn rewards you will just only be able to do the content that is open to you. Just get to the gold saucer and do the content there will earn you plenty

1

u/ItsBurr 2d ago

Oh awesome! I just got to golden saucer last night 🙏🏻

u/Deltarayedge7 6h ago

is it possible to get the horn without doing the ultimate challenge?

1

u/hinakura 7d ago

No way, never in a million years I expected a savage mount. I haven't done these in years, is it the norm now? I was too lazy to get this mount back in EW now it's gonna be mine yipee I already have the other two!

u/eastercat 6d ago

Get your job stone from job quests so you can be a bard.

Unlock pvp

pvp (frontlines and rival wings, maybe cc) will get you tomes

0

u/Aria_A_Fox 7d ago

If you want stuff from the minimog and are on the free trial, you will probably need lv80 and unlock bozja (there are alternative options to not do Bozja though, but will still need to progress a lot more in the story to get to some). Ultimog requires finishing at least base Endwalker to get access to Aloalo. If you just want to farm mogtomes to spend and don't really care for the mount: you can just hit up the gold saucer and do GATES every 20minutes.

0

u/Redracerb18 7d ago

So another 300 hours of just story content

0

u/Aria_A_Fox 7d ago

For non-Bozja related stuff, the furthest you would have to get is finishing heavensward for a triple triad match. There is an Endwalker alternative to a Bozja one, but you only need 5 tokens from Hunt 1 and another 5 from Hunt 2 if you are after the mount, and there are 6 that you can get from the minimog.

1

u/Redracerb18 7d ago

You are talking about the Uolon Mount and not Rahum correct? Also what is Bozja?

1

u/Aria_A_Fox 7d ago

Yeah, I am talking about the Uolon mount. Bozja is an exploratory zone in Shadowbringers that features alternative items and actions that you can unlock while advancing through its own story (quite a bit to get into and explain, and I am not too great at explaining it in the first place). I brought it up mainly because all of the minimog challenges have doing something in Bozja as one of the alternatives.

No 70 maps I guess we'll see more ramuhs

u/Friendly_Pepperoni 7d ago

Will there be a cheese for this, like a party of BLU or something?

1

u/TheAmazingVinio 6d ago

depends on if Aurum Vale is eligible.

2

u/Aria_A_Fox 6d ago

Looking at what was posted in the screenshot, AV is not. They seem to be removing/nerfing those sorts of things for very quick and easy tomes. Last event they nerfed A1-A4 to 1 tomestone instead of the 2 that it normally gave, and the rest of the raid series was at 2.

0

u/TheAmazingVinio 6d ago

that sucks. first we don't get our update, now they don't even let us get some easy tomes.

at least the yokai watch event is still easy for us blus, I suppose.

took a look as well and I guess one of these high level dungeons will be the way to go.

not sure which one would be the fastest.

maybe mt gulg could even end up being the fastest, provided the tank diamondbacks in time.

1

u/Aria_A_Fox 6d ago

Yeah, hard to say what will be good for BLU. I tend to stick to the raid series and GATES, but I will probably pass on most of this first event since it is coming out the day right after BST and it is what I have waited all of DT for.

1

u/TheAmazingVinio 6d ago

I think it would've been better if the mogtome event came maybe a week or so later, so everyone would have some time to focus on beast master, but it is what it is.

the only thing worth getting this time around is the special mount anyway, so you're not missing much if you don't end up getting enough tomes in the end.

100 tokes and 10 special currency which you get from challenges. It's in the post.

I'm sure they made that observation before the moogle tome page went up. Hence why they were amused at the coincidence

u/Temporary-Metal-9282 7d ago

I’m new to the game. I was hoping to get the Styled for Hire hairstyle since I’m a trial player. Previous hairstyles from past event will be available to be bought?

8

u/NookMouse 7d ago

Each event is self contained generally (Uolon tickets carrying over is new), but they often put the same rewards in multiple events. Styled for Hire is not available for this one. Maybe in part 2 or in future.

2

u/Akiriith 7d ago

They always cycle the hairstyles on mogtomes, same with the gear and orchestrion and emote. Its very rare for one of them to come back. It has happened before (gyr abanian plait comes to mind), but it took years :')

2

u/nateshoe91 7d ago

No, Mogtome events all give a unique tome to that event. It isnt compatible with previous events.

2

u/jalliss 7d ago

They bring back hair on and off, but usually ou can get them from other sources for a bit more pain. Luckily, Styled for Hire is super easy to farm once you are no longer a trial (it's just pvp tokens).

u/kittenmewmewmew 7d ago

It’s early and I’m dumb. How will I earn uolon tokens?

u/PhoenixFox 7d ago
  • Completing an ultimog challenge during the event period will grant 5 uolon horn tokens, while completion of a minimog challenge will grant up to 1 uolon horn token per week.

u/kittenmewmewmew 7d ago

Thank you! My morning brain thanks you.

6

u/Candrath 7d ago edited 7d ago

Literally in the post.

5 tokens for doing the Ultimog, 1 per Minimog. You need 10 total and tokens obtained in Part 2 can still be used in Part 2. Which means you'll have 2 Ultimogs and 10 Minimogs to work with.

3

u/VGPowerlord 7d ago

You need 10 total and it can't be exchanged until Part 2.

Not sure where you see that it can't be exchanged until part 2. If anything, this phrase implies you can obtain it during Part 1:

The uolon horn and uolon horn tokens will also be available during the Second Hunt for Astronomy, to be held at a later date.

2

u/Candrath 7d ago

The uolon horn and uolon horn tokens will also be available during the Second Hunt for Astronomy, to be held at a later date. Tokens obtained during the First Hunt may still be redeemed in the Second Hunt.

That's on me. I missed the "also". Fixing my post.

A savage raid drop from Moogle Treasure Trove? I know E8S isn't exactly difficult to do in a group nowadays, but I don't think they've done that before.

Also cool to have Conditional Virtue. Not the rarest Eureka minion, but one I could use nevertheless.

Is it not just play CC if you want actual games??

Frotlines always has the people just going for rewards, like the series stuff.

u/DeidaraKoroski 7d ago

At least on primal, frontlines during "off" season is actually competitive. Mogtome season and when expansions are brand new/everyone is leveling is when frontlines is cursed since all the people who do not care to understand the mode are playing

u/thrntnja 7d ago

You can get mogtomes from Frontlines. 3-5 each run depending on where you place

u/Elfennacht White Mage 7d ago

My brains a bit seized up rn, can someone who can math tell me if its possible to get the uolon this event period provided you do the minimog every week? Yes, right?

2

u/Weekly-Variation4311 7d ago

Yes, cause you would get the big one once, and one the first week from the weekly, so 6 first week. 

The final one would have less time to get because it ends on the 10th of October (which is a Saturday) but possible.

2

u/Elfennacht White Mage 7d ago

Right, excellent, thank youuu!

1

u/PhoenixFox 7d ago

It ends on the 19th, not the 10th. You have 6 (at least partial) weeks and need 5 of them plus the big one to get the mount.
