Moblin Maze Mongers Delve Deeper Into Your Heart! (06/26/2009)

Not content to rest on their laurels as the foremost—and only—purveyors of custom dungeons in Vana'diel, the Moblin Maze Mongers have been working overtime on their latest Maze Voucher that will usher in a whole new subterranean adventure in the upcoming version update!


My Gobbie and I With the new Maze Voucher, players will be able to participate in a new challenge in which they and a Goblin companion must maneuver their way through a maze teeming with fiendish foes. In order for your operation to be deemed a success, your comrade must survive the journey intact.

The Power of Gob Have no fear, for this Goblin is no defenseless dunce! By defeating enemies that lurk in the maze, your companion will gain strength and grow into a formidable ally. Defend him from harm, but take care not to be overprotective—slay too many foes yourself, and you will find your Gobbie's growth as an adventurer stunted.


Gob of All Trades Your Goblin companion will begin the quest with the "All-Rounder" job—well-balanced in a variety of skills, but master of none. By reaching Level 5 and fulfilling certain conditions, he will be eligible to switch to a more specialized position.

The career choices available to your Gobbie include the close-combat specialist "Walloper," the ranged attack marksman "Barrager," and the magic-wielding "Spellslinger." Each specialized job also comes with unique abilities, which your Goblin will unleash when the requisite conditions are met.

If you and your Goblin apprentice succeed in your mission, you can expect a whole slew of lavish rewards, including MMM's inaugural augmented items, special maze runes to customize your Gobbie's abilities, and much, much more!

Edit: This does not look like job adjustments..

Wow, I haven't tried Maze Mongers yet, as I have just gotten back from an 8 month hiatus, but this looks pretty cool. It is almost like your NPC for Mazes.

[DakAttack]

It would be cooler if one could choose from goblin types seen around Vana'diel, rather than the ones made up for this occassion. This seems to be a goblin copy of adventuring fellows.

Cool, nonetheless.

Side note: you can actually bring your NPC in to your mazes with you, with this rune.

Anywho, this notice reminds me that I need to convince my Linkshell to do MMM with me again sometime - I've been sitting at max C.C. points forever, now. =/

Hmm... I wonder if you can use the NPC rune in mazes set up with the goblin voucher. And if so, whether a healer NPC will heal the gob. That would be very useful for players without any healing jobs leveled.

Also... are these one person mazes or can you bring a party? If you bring a party, do they all have their own goblins, or only the party leader's goblin?

Anyway, I hope by "Level 5" they don't mean actual level 5... trying to keep alive a goblin that started at level 1 would be a real pain, if all the mobs in the maze are set according to your level. (Then again, maybe for that voucher they'll be determined by your goblin's level.)

[Aylmer]

It would be nice to have all the different Gobbies but that could be for later added quest on future updates. I think it will be cool to have a Gobbie fight by your side and also have its own unique abilities once it gets stronger.

This sounds like fun, I gotta get back to doing MMM again (that and I want a damned Koggelmander for my BLU)

[Aksannyi]

I kinda lost interest in MMM after a few weeks, but I have to say, having my own Goblin friend would be cool. I've always thought Gobs were cute and rather underrated.

But will you still think that after your Gobbie friend drops the bomb and killing you both?

Hmmm... I wonder if SE would be that evil to do that...

Ya I love the gobbies too. I bought the plushie and he sits on my shelf above my monitor. Everytime someone sees him they go "OMG thats so cute! Where can I get one?" even non gamers!

SE, after all these years, why do Goblins still need boners built into their armor?

XD Cause SE is perverted... idk...

I have done the MMM twice. Omg... I remember trying to get into it when it first started. IT WAS IMPOSSIBLE!

Me (as Sam), and a friend (as Drg) tried to duo it. It took forever to get in, but it was fun. We got to the end, and we actually beat it. I gotta start it up again. See if hes interested again.
