Moghancement Guide : FFXI General Discussions

In the February 26th patch, SE added three features to moghouse furnishings: Storage, Elements and Moghancements. I'm not going to cover the general description of these features in this guide. If you are unfamiliar with these features in general, I recommend reading the SE official post at http://www.playonline.com/comnewsus/200402262363.html .

HOW MOGHANCEMENTS WORK

Every item of furniture is associated to one element (fire, earth, water, wind, ice, thunder, light, dark). The element can be seen when viewing the furniture - it appears in the lower right using the same icons as used for elemental weather.

Every item of furniture also has a Moghancement associated with it. Although the element of the furniture will indicate some possible moghancements you will get, use the Furniture list below if you looking for a particular Moghancement.

The elemental strength of different types of furniture can vary from weak to strong. For example, the elemental strength of a flower pot is weaker than that of a bronze bed. In our research, we measured the elemental strength of each type of furniture against the weakest known furniture items - Rusty Buckets and Flowerpots (except porcelain). In the list below, the elemental strengths listed are relative to the Rusty Bucket/Flowerpot elemental strength of 1.

You can only have one Moghancement at a time. Which one you gets depends on which element is dominant in your furniture layout. To determine which element is dominant, add up elemental strength of each item of furniture (earth+2 is twice as strong as wind+1).

If no element is dominant in your layout, you will get no Moghancement effect. For example, if you have 2 flower pots and 1 flower stand in your house, the elemental effects are of equal strength and you get no Moghancement.

When you have more than one possible Moghancement for the dominant element in your layout, you still only get one Moghancement. You will get the Moghancement of the furniture with the most element strength among those in the dominant element. For example, if the dominate element in your layout is earth and if you have a workbench (earth+6), a brass flowerpot (earth+1) and a yellow jar (earth+2), you will the Moghancement associated with the furniture with the strongest elemental influence, the workbench (Moghancement: Gardening).

Placing many of the same furniture in your mog house will increase the Moghancement "aura" and will change the message your Moogle gives you:
1-50 faint elemental energy
51-100 powerful elemental energy
101+ filled with elemental energy
What effect the higher level of aura has is undetermined as yet. Adding other kinds of furniture to your layout may cancel the effect somewhat.

The elemental field in your moghouse can have hidden effects apart from the Moghancement. Crafters in particular should pay attention to this. For example, a strong water elemental field has been reported to have adverse effects on synthing with fire crystals.

BTw can u have 2 different mog house?
Like more than 1 mog house?
And when you say experience do you mean experience icnreased during battle?

mogenhancement: experience means you lose less exp when you die.
You can only have one moghouse but your moogle can move to a temporary house in another city so you can access your mogsafe. Talk with one of the guides at the moghouse entrance, they'll explain it for you.

i C, as far as im concerned most of your mog house hencement are meant to enhance the crafting abilities. They dont hence your character, like for e.g regen hencement when healing, etc...

i just have to say u da man baby.
