Egg Hunt Egg-stravaganza 2009/Guide

Your First Eggs
In each city, there are some Moogles that are giving out initial eggs. You get one free egg every Earth hour (or Vana'diel day) from the Moogle in the center. Your first goal will be to collect the first 3 letters of your name in eggs. Trade them in and you will earn your Egg Helm. However, it is not as hard as getting a random egg and finding people with the eggs you need. Rather, you can find someone named such that their first initial and the egg you need are the same. For example if you invite "Chapel" you will get a C egg. If you are partied with multiple people you will get to choose which one you want. The zone that the other members of your party is does matter. They must be in the same city as you, although the area in that city doesn't matter.

If a party member has an Egg Helm equipped and you select the letter for their name, you will receive the first two letters of their name instead of just one.

Moogle Locations
Festival Moogles will appear at the following locations during the festival period. Speak to them to learn the details of the festival. Southern San d'Oria (J-9) / Northern San d'Oria (D-8) Bastok Mines (I-9) / Bastok Markets (G-8) Windurst Waters (north side) (F-5) / Windurst Woods (K-10)

If your inventory is full when you speak to the Moogle for your free egg, the moogle will try to give you the egg anyway. You may receive the message "You cannot obtain the  Egg. Come back after sorting your inventory." If so, you may still get a free egg on that Vana'diel day (from any event moogle), however the egg may not be the same as the one you could not obtain. If instead you get only the message "You cannot obtain the  Egg," then you will not be able to get an egg for that Vana'diel day.

Bear in mind also if you are a new character: You must have existed within the game for at least three (game) days before you are eligible to receive the eggs. If the character was made in less than three days and you speak to the Moogle, the Event Moogles will give you the speech, but not the egg.

Trading Eggs
You can also trade regular eggs to the moogle in exchange for an extra  Egg. You may only trade one regular egg item to the moogle per Vana'diel day. The follorwing are known regular egg items that the moogle will accept in exchange.
