Trick or Treat!

NPCs are dressed in costumes. Trade them sweets to obtain items.

♦Costumed NPCs:

Southern San d'Oria / Northern San d'Oria
Bastok Mines / Bastok Markets
Windurst Waters / Windurst Woods

• NPCs will accept most sweets, with certain exceptions that do not appeal to their finicky palates.

Recommended "Sweets"

• Garlic Cracker (3~4 gil) Sold by Ghebi Damomohe in Lower Jeuno, (I-7)
• Acorn Cookie (21~81 gil) - Sold by Ness Rugetomal in Windurst Waters (North), (F-10)

• If Windurst is in 2nd then Cinna-cookies work and are cheaper, but just use crackers.

• Trade via the macro /item "Item Name" <t>

• /item "Garlic Cracker" <t>

Trick or Treat Rewards

Trade costumed NPCs sweets over and over again to obtain the following NQ items.
To obtain the HQ variant you must equip that item, and not any of the other Trick or Treat items and trade the NPCs more.

Note: You may not wear a grip while trying to obtain the staff.

NQ Item	HQ Item
You will only obtain the flan masque from trading Flan costumed NPCs sweets.

Costume Contest

Take Part in the Pink Masquerade Costume Contest! The Pink Masquerade costume competition will be held on each festival ground. Speak to the Ensemble Maven and trade them a treat to begin the contest. The judge will evaluate your currently equipped outfit. Receive a high evaluation to win a prize.

♦Costume Contest Areas

Southern San d'Oria (I-8) / Northern San d'Oria (F-6)
Bastok Mines (H-8) / Bastok Markets (G-8)
Windurst Waters (G-9) / Windurst Woods (H-11)

♦Prizes

Speak to the Ensemble Maven to receive a Botulus Suit.

• You are free to participate in the contest wearing the suit.

To participate in the "contest" you must first make a contest outfit. Put on some event reward equipment.

• Only the main weapon, sub weapon, head, body, hands, legs, and feet slots count.
• You may wear any special event equipment, including items from the Repeat Login Campaign.

After creating your costume, trade the Ensemble Maven a random type of accepted sweet (same kinds you can trade to the NPCs for costumes) and to receive your score.

• The current top 3 scores have their outfits displayed on the mannequins next to the Ensemble Mavens.
• Scores of 20+ are rewarded with a Botulus Suit +1.

• Scores seem mostly random so just keep trading your Garlic Crackers.

Your Purple-winged Partners

See one of the Moogles below to begin and sync to level one. You must begin charging your enlight lazer via defeating Wraith Bats as your ordinary melee attacks do nothing to Pyracmon.

Each bat you defeat will store a point that will give you an enlight effect of 1 damage. There is no notification that your lazer charged or your current strength. The effect caps at 30 damage.

Return to the Moogle after defeating bats to gain the enlight effect based on the number of bats killed.

♦Moogle Locations

West Ronfaure (I-6) / East Ronfaure (G-6)
North Gustaberg (L-8) / South Gustaberg (J-7)
West Sarutabaruta (J-8) / East Sarutabaruta] (G-11)

Relinquishing Enlight Rewards

If you relinquish your light to the triple bats Magivore Ternion that appear after you gain the effect from the moogle, the prizes below will be rewarded.

• NQ items do not need to be worn in order to obtain the HQ.
  • After obtaining the HQ, the bats do not return and try to leech your Enlight.

Rewards	Notes
	Defeat 25+ bats.
	Obtained after obtaining the NQ. Defeat 30 bats.

Pyracmon Rewards

If you do not relinquish your light, face off against the spooky Ahriman Pyracmon. If he is defeated, you can earn the prizes below.

• Pyracmon will try to dispel this en-light via its only TP move Monocular Scowl. This is a gaze move and may be evaded simply by facing away while it is used.

• If you are hit by this you will need to zone and start over.
  • He will not regenerate health if you zone.

• You may use the regen bonus from the grounds of valor book after syncing to make this easier.

After defeating the Ahriman, return to the moogle to receive your reward.

• He may direct drop:
  • Federation Stables Scarf
  • Republic Stables Medal
  • Kingdom Stables Collar

Rewards	Notes
	Defeat 11+ bats.
	Obtained after obtaining the NQ. Defeat 11+ bats.
	Obtained after defeating the Pyracmon while in possession of both the Eerie Cloak and Eerie Cloak +1 Complete the event in Ronfaure.
	Obtained after defeating the Pyracmon while in possession of both the Eerie Cloak and Eerie Cloak +1 Complete the event in Gustaberg.
	Obtained after defeating the Pyracmon while in possession of both the Eerie Cloak and Eerie Cloak +1 Complete the event in Sarutabaruta.
	Subsequent completions (After obtaining a previous furnishing in that region)

Bomb Decorations

Throughout the festivities, players will be able to enjoy the illumination of the now-famous bomb decorations. As in previous Harvest Festivals this will reward Pitchforks, and now a mount.

Pitchfork

To obtain the Pitchfork you must make a two-person party and meet under specific Bomb Decorations with two specific costumes. Which costumes are based on area. Below is a list of the correct combinations and which NPCs can give them to you. The NPCs will not accept every type of sweet to turn you into a costume. If you get "Thank you..." with nothing else, try another sweet or wait a game-day to reset and try again. Once you get a costume, you must wait a game-day if trying to get the same costume from the same NPC with the same sweet. Alternatively, try another sweet if it's on the same day.

• Bastok Markets: Ghost + Hound (Trick Specter + Trick Ghost)
• Bastok Mines: Skeleton + Shade (Emaliveulaux G-6 + Neigepance J-9)
• Northern San d'Oria: Shade + Hound (Trick Phantom + Trick Skeleton)
• Southern San d'Oria: Ghost + Skeleton (Phamelise K-9 + Corua G-9) (Meet under bomb decorations by Moogle House at L-7)
• Windurst Waters: Skeleton + Hound (Trick Spirit + Trick Shadow)
• Windurst Woods: Ghost + Shade (Taraihi-Perunhi J-10 + Quesse K-12)

Pitchfork +1

Obtaining the Pitchfork +1 is somewhat similar. You must again make a 2-person party, but this time you both must have and equip the Pitchfork (with no grip) and both be in a nation different where both of you first obtained it.

This time around you will need to get the costume of the Beastmen that lives near your home nation(Bastok = Quadav, San d'Oria = Orc, and Windurst = Yagudo). If done correctly, instead of getting that Beastmen's form, you will instead get a Goblin costume. Meet under bomb decorations and you will receive your reward.

• Bastok Markets: Orc(Trick Spirit), Quadav(Trick Phantom), and Yagudo(Trick Skeleton). Meet under bomb decorations at G-4
• Northern San d'Oria: Orc(Trick Shadow), Quadav(Trick Bones), and Yagudo(Trick Ghast).
• Windurst Waters: Orc(Trick Bones), Quadav(Trick Shade), and Yagudo(Trick Ghost).

NPC and Costume List

Since all NPC's always give the same type of costume, it can be convenient to know which to use for obtaining the Pitchfork items.
There are both special event roaming NPC's, and pre-existing NPC's that have been dressed up just for the event. Stationary NPC's can often be indoors and more difficult to use seeing as how costumes do not allow interaction with doors.

Spectral Chair Mount

Cyhiraeth, Corpselight

Form a party of two people. Find an NPC dressed as a Cyhiraeth (the floating skull). A list of these NPCs can be found in the table above. Both party members should trade a sweet until you both are turned into the same costume. You can get other rewards before becoming the Cyhiraeth costume (which lasts 5 minutes). Once both members are a Cyhiraeth, head to the bomb decoration in the zone and both stand under the bomb balloon decorations to receive the Spectral Chair Mount.

Note: If you fail for any reason, you have to wait till the next game day to start over again.

Note: Trading a different type of sweet will allow you to have another chance at getting the costume. You can only obtain one reward per Vana'diel day per sweet type, per NPC.

Example:

• The NPC at the Auction House in Southern San d'Oria is in this costume and will grant it for a sweet. Proceed to the bomb balloons in the costume near the Mog House at (L-7) to gain the mount:

Wake of the Lilies

There are two ghosts of the Dark Lilies in each city, in the areas listed below.
To begin this portion of the event simply talk to one of the above NPC. He will assign you one of them to follow. This will be the less difficult of the two. You MUST be wearing a costume given out when trading sweets to one of the costumed NPCs to receive progress messages, starting with "You've joined the procession." If you are successful, you will be given the Witch Hat.
If you talk to the exorcist again with the Witch Hat equipped on the next game-day, he will assign to the second and harder Dark Lily to follow. This time, if you are successful, you will be rewarded a Coven Hat.

Being spotted by the NPC remove your costume, and you must start over. When you have completed the task, you will be notified via the message: "Alright! It's time to collect your reward!"

Further successful attempts will be rewared with a random number of Papillions.

♦Exorcist Locations

• Gertrude in Northern San d'Oria (D-8)
• Brian in Bastok Markets (G-8)
• Roger in Windurst Waters (north side) (F-5)

• Note: After successfully completing an exorcist's request, players must wait until the next game day before accepting another.

This must be done from the Mog Safe 1 and not 2.

Pumpkin Hunt

New starting in 2020 is a pumpkin hunt similar to the Let's Go! Vana'diel Day! event held in October 2017.
