Nomad Moogles Took Maat's Jawb!

Dey tuk his jerb!!

For years Maat has diligently served the twisted machinations of SE designers by torturing those looking to reach the next level. He served with purpose and sarcastic humor. Who could forget the days of searching for items that most had never heard of? "Oh yea just go get me some stuff from these dungeons, Nancy..." Hours later and sometimes at the cost of a party worth of experience. Burning questions of your own self worth and complete destruction of pride surfacing, you'd return. Hand Maat the items, and he would kick you while you were down with another quip. Then you'd find the old insane man blocking you again 5 levels later.
Finally you'd be ready to take the old man in combat. 66~70 levels of bad *** equipment and knowing your abilities. And what would Maat do?
He'd stand and wait for you... then blitz you with impossible stacking of abilities and spell combo. Enough to make most players let out a soul shredding shriek of frustration and pain. And if you were unlucky enough to lose, he'd laugh and send you to find another bloody item before you could try again. And if you'd win, he'd still be that sarcastic old man but he would have a sliver of respect for you.
Today SE has given the Nomad Moogle the next step in evolving our characters. Taking the role Maat has served with passion and malice few NPCs could exhibit. So when you look into that stuffies' eyes today as you look to break the limits. Remember that old man close by, having to watch this travesty. Having to serve his days out to most of us as another NPC we never speak to. And maybe go say hi and thanks to Maat, for all those long nights. For making you the player you are today.
Because the Moogle workforce is cheaper, cuter and more marketable. But let us not forget Maat. Minimalized but not forgotten. And remember the days before with fondness. The days before you hated Moogles for making you come to them from some crazy dungeon with items you'd never heard of.

Thank you Maat for your years of service!

Oh yea, and Moogles tuk Maat's jawb!

<3

This thread made me lol, thanks, I needed it. =D

lol

thanks for a laugh amid the sea of tears and whine.

I couldn't just sit idly by and stay quiet. ;)

dey tuk his jerb!? DEY TUK HIS JERB!!!

I dont want a quest but only cos 283746782346 ppl would be doing it. I don't think FFXI should forget it's roots but it will. Yet we can remember these tough times as a reminder of when it was srs business and having a 75 made you god. RIP Maat, may Angels guide you to your rest.

GOGOGOOGOGGO 76+!!

you're laughing now, see how hard you're laughing when you have to farm an item with a 1% drop rate that only 3 mobs in the entire game drop and 100+ people are camping for

yes, SE would do it, you know they would.

Sounds like back in the day i needed paper of liches......took me 5 hours...

Maat is too busy Campaigning now....

That's in Maat's past... now he's stuck in Ru'L watching Moogles do his job!

But that is in the past!

I dont have maats *yet* but after owning him so many times guy deserves some kinda OAP retirement fund. I'll start: I donate 1000gil

Would be funny if the Moogle's quest is to beat Maat ,, haha.. though i'd love an alliance fight against Maat where we are allowed to raise him and defeat him over and over again while he's still in weakened..lol

Moogles gave limit points, if people know of a quest to get 76+ please say but in terms of limit breaks it was always maat

BLAST!

That was one of my favorite southpark episodes lol

Yeah, and that damn coal of the bombs and mold of the fungars.

I have all of Midgards' lost currency in a mattress somewhere.. I could donate it to his retirement fund. Maat lives for combat though. So he's going to be having difficulties during this time. I know with positive support from the player base, we will help him through this transitional time.

I should add the mattress is somewhere because since my original post, my moghouse has become somewhat unruly. My Moogle is threatening strike... He has some of my weapons, it could get ugly.
And I'm wondering does anyone have the number for a moogle/adventurer relations counsellor?

><

Answer: *** slap your moogle, it has no soul.

Maat isn't hard these days. If you beaten him once, you'll have Merits/Gear for 66 jobs.

I was disappointed @ PLD maat.
I didn't even sent or 2hr.
Just.... tanked him like a boss.

Tho he kicked my mnk's ***.... @75

I'll just go in @80 and be like "SURPRIZE BISH"

To level up to 80 you must trade all of your gear to Nomad Moogle and it will verify if you have enough L33T gear to move on to 80~.

sadly all maats are piss after first. I atonemented maat and he gave up, all i did was 721 damage and he quit...

Now, watch... now a moogle is going to kick our *** and laugh at us LOL! >.>

Or maybe he will have a surprise for you !!

Sekinokiki >> Asuran Fists >> Asuran Fists >> Meditate >> Asuran Fists !!!

Hahahaahha !

Maat's only got one thing to say about this.
