Walkthrough

Note: The guide below is copied from previous years; there are no changes.

  • You can use "motion" at the end of your /emotes in order to prevent chat log spam.

As with every MHMU event, mayhem ensues. And like everything else in Vana'diel, everything will fall apart if you don't pay attention to it. Your goal is to escort Prince Yahiko and Princess Amdina through the town to finish the play. But you must overcome several obstacles!

  • Speak to one of the Moogles at the above locations.
    • Note: You can join mid-round, and still receive credit.
  • Prince Yahiko and Princess Amdina will proceed through the city at the locations listed below.
    • In Northern San d'Oria they spawn at (F-5) in front of the Smithing Guild and travel a circuitous route to (F-7).
    • In Bastok Markets they spawn at (E-11) and travel to (J-9).
    • In Windurst Waters they spawn at (F-7) / (G-7) and walk in a circle around the zone back to their spawn spots.
  • The Prince and Princess will stop at specific intervals either to deliver lines or for the Princess to think out loud.
    • When she is thinking, her thoughts will be in parenthesis (Like this).
      • When the Princess has positive thoughts, nod at her with the /yes or /nod emote to encourage her.
      • When the Princess has negative thoughts, shake your head with the /no emote to get her to dismiss them.
      • The Princess will occasionally backtrack to the previous dialog point.
  • A lady named Loaranne, Hiltrude, or Mihn Rhettorah (in Northern San d'Oria, Bastok Markets, and Windurst Waters respectively) will appear in random spots multiple times per procession. They try to distract the Prince, and if they succeed multiple times, it will end the performance.
    • You can use the /wave emote to get her attention, causing her to turn to look in your direction. You can use this to turn her so that she will not aggro the Prince as he walks by.
      • She will eventually lose interest in you, she may turn back and aggro the Prince.
      • Successfully distracting her will require at least one other player helping or very good timing. Her aggro distance is hard to judge, and she only pays attention to you for a couple seconds. If you coordinate your waves with another player, you can keep her distracted.
    • If you don't succeed at distracting her, and she walks up to the Prince, spam the /slap emote on the Prince to get him back on course. As long as you slap him every time, you can still finish the course.
      • Even if she walks up multiple times while they are walking on the path, just keep slapping him so he continues. Completion is just based on him finishing the procession, not on whether or not she got in his way.
  • When you reach the end of the procession, speak to Princess Amdina to receive your reward.
