I'll get Dej a bell if I have time to, I'm sort of focused on grinding at the moment so I can have 30 by Christmas. I want to be able to start BRD and BST ASAP.
Bump Mapping is a subtle change. You really don't notice it until you see an avatar, if Bump Mapping is off, it seems like the avatar doesn't display correctly, at least back in the day it didn't. Bump Mapping is more visible in places like Bastok, where there's a lot of texture on the floor and walls.
I got 25 last night, the goal today is to get 15 RDM today, and work on RDM again tonight. I'm going to put off doing mission 2-3 until after I hit 30, I just want to achieve my goal, and then I can focus on things like mog house expansion, gobbie bags, fame, and missions. I will need those instruments though, but I'll tell you now, it will be a good long while before I can return them, because BRD uses them for a long time. But, since BRD is purely a party/social job, I can't see you wanting to use them anytime soon. >.>

Kikaro, there are 2 moogles!!!! one gives you a card to give to another person. A cassiopia card. it will say "give to a galka" or sumfin. he wont help you again till you give it to the specific person. That person trades it to the moogle, and gets a pess...something card, and gives it to you. then you trade THAT card to the moogle for a nice price. They will also give you a starlight token, that you just simply SPEAK to the other moogle, and your prize is granted. Same for the bell token, same moogle. just talk to moogle for your prize. go get another bell token, lather rinse repeat.
Black pudding with no fame sells for like 800. with good fame over 1k a peice. The chocolates sell for over 500 with no fame. Keep the robe on you, and when you trade in your bell token, it should go to plus one. Or the moogle will give you boots. then the boots can upgrade to plus one. those have sneak on them for all jobs. nice boots.
you may also end up with turkeys, candy canes, candy rings, and so on, so be patient. i went out this AM and tons of folks were smacking on boxes. The thing is that they were stealing them from under you. You killed the top one, and before you could bang on the second one, they claimed it. I was getting really angry and decided to go in.
I will try to find vachir for his LS pearl when he is on. Not much I can do till he crosses my path. Walking wounded has been VERY VERY helpful and a great LS to be in. They are friendly, light hearted, and easy to just hang out with. I knew Vachir would do well. They do lots of baby level stuff, and lots of higher level stuff. If anyone decides to stay and wants a pearl, just poke me. They really are great fun, and willing to roll up their sleeves and come get your dead ass even out of the bottom of the crawlers nest.
this is awesome to see this place alive again.

Oh, that would be why the moogle didnt talk. I saw I could buy stuff for the holidays for like 10k a pop.
I dont know much abotu fame but the Black pudding sold for 1006 gil. I was level 5. So to me that was great. It upgraded all my stuff.
I will go find the other moogle. Any idea where he is in Windhurst? Im not as familiar with the place yet. I managed to get lost yesterday.
I might not be able to get back on until Saturday. I hope the christmas stuff is still going on then.

since the boxes are outside of the waters exit, the moogle should be just in side the door. do a /shout and ask. took me forever to figure out bastok. the only item you may want to buy is a santa hat. it allows you to transport to other cities. I am sure steph will explain more.
now get smacking. those puddings are good money! congrats on level 5! before you know it, you will be 10 and can level sync with us.

The turn-in moogle should be right inside the area after you come back inside Windurst Woods.There are 4 different moogles for this event, the token turn in NPCs, the Cassiopeia card moogles, the present delivery moogles, and the vendor moogles. There are also smilebringer NPCs dressed like Santa. Or in Bastok's case, a hooch in a Santa outfit and panties. >.> For 10k you can buy a dream hat, and with it you can do the smile bringer quests. You're rewarded with the ability to teleport to one of the 3 nations, which seems crappy, but this is the only time that EVER happens as far as I can remember. This has more info. wiki.ffxiclopedia.org/wiki/Starlight_Celebration_2008/GuideI got 15 RDM in Dangruf smacking around weaklings. Easy EXP there. Now I have some chores to do, I'll probably end up trying to get my Kazham airpass tonight.

yhamuna is great at running castle oztroja. she has led so many tours. The other two can almost be soloed. I know the beaudeax one is an easy solo, but the davoi one, you may need abacia to go bash someones head in to clear the path. Oztroja you NEED an escort, at least through that first trap door. Its random about which trigger opens the door, and which doesnt. Just run FORWARD tuck yourself tight against the door, and even if the trap opens, you wont fall in. if the door opens, yea!
going to check gardens, and be gone for the day.
ITS FIVE BELOW ZERO HERE! IM FREAKING FREEZING!

I would like the bastokian sword. how much?
Thanks to steph, I got the final peices to finish the gobbie bag quests for Dejibo. Wootga! all bag upgrades are done. I also scoured the mog house looking for holiday gear like horror heads, trick staff, yukata, and so on. I put ALL in storage except the santa boots plus one which have sneak on them. I also kept out the yukata plus one, which is great for any job. and that made lots of room in mog house, as well as lots of room in gobbie bag. 10 extra slots in bag! woot!
I pulled out sam and started pecking away at it. I have been swearing I would do it for a long time, and yet never got to it. figured it would be easy.
Thanks to stephs help, I got nice holiday items! she was always so good at this crap. I dont have the patience.

That's cuz Square-Enix insists on filling their screenshot files with a bunch of encoded garbage.
