Felicific Buffalo

Collect three special items and trade them to a special NPC to receive something out of the ordinary! The three special items are:

BB Cowbell A. icon.png BB Cowbell A. - Randomly obtained from a Rancher in a San d'Oria area after trading them an item.

BB Cowbell B. icon.png BB Cowbell B. - Randomly obtained from a Rancher in a Bastok area after trading them an item.

BB Cowbell G. icon.png BB Cowbell G. - Randomly obtained from a Rancher in a Windurst area after trading them an item.

Tips:

  • Use the "/follow" command on a rancher (it does not matter which). Then, create a macro with the line "/item "ANY INVENTORY ITEM" <t>". Spam this on a Rancher.
  • These NPCs can be seen on Widescan.
  • It is recommended to use elemental crystals as your trade item.
    • When you use a "valuable" item, such as gil, it is not taken from you. You will only receive buffs in return for these types of items. and they do not disappear from your inventory.

The moogles have cleverly hidden seven types of Tenshodo trading cards across the land and challenged the Goblins to find them. But the cunning Goblins, determined to come out on top in the contest, have taken to riding chocobos, and that simply isn't fair, kupo!

Southern San d'Oria / Northern San d'Oria

Bastok Markets / Bastok Mines

Windurst Waters (north side) / Windurst Woods

Trading cards can occasionally be found by examining overturned soil in the following locations. Get there before the goblins beat you to it!

West Ronfaure / La Theine Plateau / Jugner Forest / Batallia Downs / South Gustaberg / Konschtat Highlands / Pashhow Marshlands / Rolanberry Fields / East Sarutabaruta / Tahrongi Canyon / Meriphataud Mountains / Sauromugue Champaign.

The odds of receiving trading cards increases with the more people you have in your party. Team up with other adventurers to increase your odds of success!
