the festival was very exciting and the lord's yukata looks cute on Tarutaru's and Mithran's alike so do you all think that it should be brought back and not made rare Ex so everyone can have it
if you guys could recommend any of the prize sets (30, 50, or 80) which would you recommend? Personally, I wanna get the drop set but you guys tell me what your opinions are.
I thought this would be a good place to ask this any one know what the gold fish set is for? I just got one and have no clue. On a side note is the only way to get a lords yukata is to buy it for 50k? Thanks in advance for any info.
Edit: thx for the info so far ive been told it was used in high lv synth's and the items are also expensive and extremely rare to get.
Im curious as to why se would make an event intirely for the rich, yukata's are out of my reach price wise because I have more important needs atm and now this gold fish set sounds like its gonna be the same lol. Just sounds unrealistically unfair to lower lvs who have no chance at raising the funds for it unless they buy gil. Im sure there is some thing else for this item but if not this is by far se's stupidist move.
The goldfishing set is used to make a goldfish bowl which you can put in your mog house and it has a tiny goldfish and a black-bubbley swimming around in it. It takes low level synthesis but the ingredients are exspensive.
This year's Summerfest (2005) aka "Sunbreeze festival" just started tonight, and so far the whole goldfish scooping quest has mad e comeback, complete with the Yukuta's and everything.
I just spent about an hour saving up 80 fish for the 'big prize' and I got an item called "Goldfish kit: (it reads) Includes everything needed to keep your pet goldfish happy". O--kay?
So it doesn't work as furniture in your Mog House, and it doesn't seems to really do much of anything.. so... what the hell?
Anyone know what I'm supposed to do with this thing I spent an hour to get?
Good question I cant seem to find the answer either I was hoping the grand prize was a yukata and got this instead lol. Theres no way im paying 50k so looks like i wont be getting it. Any way if i find the answer to what its for I'll post it here for ya. good kuck
you can get this at this year's fest too. you can buy it from the moogle that sells fireworks for 50k. there is another yukata that sells for 10k from the moogle but it is only defense 1 and does nothing. by the way, it is rar/ex you cannot trade it. hope this helps =)
For those who missed out on Summerfest, the yukatas are now available during the Sunbreeze Fest. Omina and Onoko's go for 10k, Lord's and Lady's for 50k.
I remember Summerfest, in my mind it was by far the coolest event. It was easy to do, cheap and really fun, you got to see alot of cool places. I hope this year they have a similar event. The Yukata may not do anything spectacular but it is awesome to wear ^^
I dunno about you guys, but my Lord's Yukata has "+2 to goldfish scooping ability." Say what'cha want, but that's what mine has. Maybe the moogle likes me.
As for the goldfish event, it's a waste of time... yes, but then again it's also a way to take a load off from your average FFXI questing, which was the purpose of Summerfest anyway.
R the sontes re-useable? or whould u need to do the quest again tog et them, my FFXI is outright now and i want to get it back up b4 the 8th to try this, right now im bored and got notihing to do but read, thanks for the help.
You can get colored drops for 30 points. They are actually pretty good. Black teleports you to your homepoint, white to Jeuno, and the rest boost a specific attribute by 8. Considering how many points they cost, they're actually pretty nice prizes. First post! ^^
to anyone wondering about the mystery box you can earn with 50 points, I got it. It's a set of spirit masques. Put one on and a ghostly face appears over your own and a wisp follows behind you. It is pretty cool looking though I was hoping for something more permanent. Oh well...
Goldfish scooping is just like fishing. U go to Rabao and there should be an NPC name "Mei" she sells Super scoops and Goldfish Bowls. Equip these as if they were a fishing rod and bait. Then go to any body of water in an area they show fireworks in and 'fish'. When u catch a goldfish return it to Mei and redeem them for points for prizes.
To get this robe you simply need to trade in any four race items OTHER than your own. I am a hume male so I cannot trade in a Dire Candle. However, both the elvaan tomes, a Yhoator Flea, and the Rusty Tail cutter, will get me the robe. However I have no Idea how this Goldfish scooping is done (In game, I couldn't care less what it does in real life.) Anyone know?
so far the only reason of this i can think of is to trade in your fish and get 30 points and get drops with your points. drops sale between 5k-10k each on my server
