Yoshi-P said in the panel that his least favorite quest line in the game is the hidden moogles, so I'm assuming if they added them as a beast tribe they'd try to avoid some of the errors of the past.

This was also the only bad moogle quest in the churning mists, so I'm really not sure why people keep complaining about them.

The sheer number and density of them. Also the fact you have to do quests to get the aether currents, and you're never entirely 100% sure if it's this bunch of quests which gives you the aether current or NOPE IT'S AN ACCESORY 2 LEVELS BELOW YOUR CURRENT STUFF

I'm glad I cheated and just looked that up on a guide (and played slow enough for a guide to have been written by the time I got there)

You ride on the shoulders of a giant yeti, who is friends with one of the moogles.

Questing is fun, though, especially when it's for cute moogles.

Never mind "slow enough", there were guides day 1, written by the poopsockers who went before us. I know this, because despite my best efforts at trying to slow down and enjoy the game and everything it had to offer, I still wound up rushing through content like Augustus Gloop inhaling chocolate after falling into the river. Also, like a proverbial fat kid, I rapidly fell behind, but I still had those guides bookmarked for when I would need them.

To properly state the number and density, once you completed all of the sidequests and then the main quest to open up flying, the zone practically repopulates all of the questgiver moogles with another quest or three. Literally all of them. Because now you have flying and by gawd they're going to make you exercise that flight!

As someone who didn't look anything up beforehand: start buying the various Unidentified items you'll need later on. Beast tribes, poetics, law, whatever you got.

For a while in ARR I would cross-class Truth of Mountains and Truth of Forests on SMN in 4-mans just for the giggles. I mean sure in theory Surecast is more useful but I can probably count on one hand the amount of times I actually activated it and expected it to do anything in PvE content.

Goons hate churning mists because they played HW at launch and you needed to do all the sidequests because even doing all of them didn't get you to 60 and there were at least 3 levelling gaps where I ran out of quests to do.

But also because it's an ugly lovely zone that you get sent back to not once but twice while hinterlands and azys go criminally underused.

I will echo advice to start buying the unidentifiable garbage now. Start doing the Crystal Tower weekly for aether oils also, you'll need 5 for step 4.

I liked Churning Mists visually but the "find the thing" quests were often quite annoying.

Law can only be used to buy old relic mats or convert to eso. You get the most bang for your buck by buying three mats and then turning the rest into eso.

I'm guessing 3.3 gives moogle beast tribe quests in churning mists, 3.4 gives us goblins in the hinterlands, and 3.5 gives us robots in Azys Lla. One of them will be a crafting one like the Ixal.

Crafting quests in Azys Lla making replacement parts to help fix a bunch of ancient Allagan tech. Or helping the Ixal return there.

Sorry if someone asked this already, but I just hit 30 on Arcanist and decided to go with Scholar. Is there a way I can make a macro to do 3 things: Place Eos on the target, place Eos normally if I have no target, and activate Heel if I hit it again? I usually just place Eos near the tank and leave it on Sic, but I keep forgetting to use Heel.
