Take Your Joviality to the Max—Introducing the Smilebringer Boot Camp!

Upon the commencement of this year's Starlight Celebration, "Smile Sergeant" NPCs will descend upon the land with the mission to scout for future smilebringers among adventurers. Do you have the grit and gaiety to make it as a smilebringer? Talk to a smile sergeant and take part in the Smilebringer Boot Camp training to find out! The training will be available in three difficulty levels—beginner, intermediate, and advanced—with each offering different rewards.

Beginner:
East Ronfaure (G-6) / South Gustaberg (I-7) / East Sarutabaruta (G-11)
Intermediate:
La Theine Plateau (K-8) / Konschtat Highlands (I-6) / Tahrongi Canyon (I-6)
Advanced:
Batallia Downs (K-8) / Rolanberry Fields (I-6) / Sauromugue Champaign (F-6)

*To take part in the Smilebringer Boot Camp located in a particular area, players must be in possession of the corresponding magical map.
*The Smilebringer Boot Camp will continue even after the conclusion of the Starlight Celebration, albeit with some changes in appearance and content. Smile sergeants will sport new attire, collect a participation fee in gil, and offer a different set of rewards for successful completion of the training.

Lend the Moogles a Capable Adventurer's Hand!

The moogles are recruiting enthusiastic adventurers to help them distribute presents and greeting cards. Munificent individuals interested in helping out are invited to approach a festival moogle at one of the following locations:
Southern San d'Oria (H-9) / Northern San d'Oria (J-8)
Bastok Markets (G-8) / Bastok Mines (I-8)
Windurst Woods (H-11) / Windurst Waters (north side) (F-9)

Presents in Exchange for Destructive Behavior!

To show their appreciation to all the tireless adventurers out there doing their part to make Vana'diel a better place, the moogles have prepared a whole hoard of presents and scattered them all over the locations listed below. As a precautionary measure to ensure that none of the creatures prowling the wilds can get to them, the presents have each been sealed within a box...and there's only one way to get them out!
West Ronfaure / East Ronfaure
North Gustaberg / South Gustaberg
West Sarutabaruta / East Sarutabaruta
