I once made one number mistake buying something on AH, so i contact the seller and asked if we could fix this. He showed up and traded me 5 x Crackler and i thought...... (thinking they wer Crackers). When i used one i found out they wer awesome, and try to find the recipe i now know the guy gave me something really valueble. I used 2 of them and it gave a lot of pleasure in my party. Now i still have 3 left and dont wanna use them before we find out how to get more. But that makes them quit useless. SE should look at this and see we want them. If anyone know how to get them, please post it and bring joy among us.
Heh, I didn't know these were so valuable until a post in the main forums mentioned them. I started playing in March (or was it May) 2004.
Last week I finally got around to clearing out old screenshots that I meant to delete over a month ago and as I worked backwards I saw pictures of old friends that had quit, events, etc. and at the very begining (2nd or 3rd picture) there was one of a guy standing in front of the Sandy AH firing one of these with the rainbow-colored "Congradulations" overhead. I remeber seeing him unload many of these and being the wide-eyed noob I took a picture. Lukily I didn't delete it while cleaning out the other old photos. Eventhough it's not the actual item I feel lucky to accidently photograph something so rare.
lol I started to run out so I came here to see how to make... valuable? **** I had no idea i've used well over a hundred, I saw a tarutaru JP in bastok with over 100 in his bazar a LONG time ago probly late 03 early 04 and back then i'd buy one of any cheaply priced firework and use it, if I liked it, I bought more, he had around 1 stack and 40 on him for 80 gil each, I bought them all when I saw how cool it was, I've used them when I level or someone in my pt I like levels... but... now I see that they can't just be crafted like I thought they could be... oh well I have 20 left, i'll save them or special thinggs like getting sea or getting more 75s
When I first started the game a moogle was handing these out... I couldn't figure out what it did (I thought it said "Cracker" and figured it wasn't worth anything) and I dropped it. If only I had kept it!
I was given a recipe from a high level alchemist for these 'Congratulation' fireworks that requires 93+ alchemy, clothcraft 50+, woodworking 30+ according to source. Once I have confirmed this recipe I'll publish it.
These are not craftable, they were part of a past event and can no longer be obtained. However, I do hope SE makes them craftable in the future because they are really cool.
I've wanted to find a stack of these for ages, hoping that people were able to make em at least or something! But the auction house never anywhere on Ramuh server seems to have em. I'd pay whatever I had to to get em, but there never anywhere to be found, and who knows what the heck the recipe is if there is one.
I happened to find one of these in my inventory today and used it, and yes it shot out "Congatulations!" It was infact once a moogle quest item. I'm going to guess it's age is from between Last Christmas (around 12-25-03) or from Easter (04)... I no longer played this character as he's now a mule, and I wish I had checked Auction House before using my only crackler, 5,000 gil per single crackler.
