Overview
Final Fantasy Brave Exvius Event

Festival of the Moon - The Misty Bamboo Forest is a King Mog exchange event combined with exploration element. Unlike regular explorations, these stages are time limited to 3 minutes each. If you run out of time before finishing the stage, you will get a game over, but you will still retain Gil, experience, and any items you gained during that time.

King Mog
You can find King Mog in the Farplane to purchase time-limited event items with event currencies until item exchange period is over.

Treasure Map



 * Missions to defeat Mermaid under X minutes are bugged. You need to defeat Mermaid without encountering any monster. If you are still not getting the achievements, try answering 'No' when you were asked the first time before entering the battle with Mermaid.
 * Maze Segment A is the only place with random encounters. It is possible to encounter either a King Metal Minituar or a Gil Snapper Family.
 * After reaching the crossroad of Maze Segment B, all statues of Maze Segment A get unlocked as well (there are now 2 fish statues in total on the map, one in each Maze Segment)
 * Room exits are randomized, and there are different rooms with the same layout. Memorize path hints for easy exploration.
 * Once time goes down to 0:00 you will get the Game Over message, but you will still get full Gil, experience and items.


 * You start from the Maze Segment A.
 * The path to Maze Segment B is marked with a big bamboo shoot to the west.
 * The path to Mermaid's Room is marked with a fish statue to the east.
 * Upon reaching the Mermaid's Room, there is only one path to the final room, and then you can choose to:
 * End the stage by going north.
 * Go to the Maze Segment B by going south.
 * In the Maze Segment B, you will find plentiful harvest points with tons of megacrysts.
 * Some paths occasionally teleport you back to Maze Segment A.
 * The path to Mermaid's Room is marked with a fish statue to the west.
 * The path to the final room is marked with a big bamboo shoot.


 * On ELT there are 8 harvest points. The first 4 are in the Mermaid's Room + Final Room. The other 4 are in Maze Segment B. Since there are none in Maze Segment A you can avoid paths that might lead back to that segment.
 * There is a bug on ELT that will sometimes cause no harvest points to spawn, it usually happens when you let the time end getting a Game Over. If time runs out, the best thing to do is close the game and restart, which will reset the map and restore the harvest points.

Tips

 * See testimonials and discussions.
 * Fohlen, Yun, Hayate, Abel, Charm Bangle, Diabolos are particularly useful with their Reduce Encounter-type passive.
 * Aquan Killer is effective against the Mermaid.
 * Olive with her TMR can do massive damage especially by using Shattering Shot first.
 * A tank with provoke is useful to draw Blow Away from your stronger units.
 * You can use Escape or Smoke on regular battles to help with the time based achievements.
 * Even if you run out of time and "Game Over," you still get to keep the drops.
 * However, if you get "Game Over" before the rewards screen after killing the Mermaid, you won't get the lanterns from the Mermaid.
 * Ending this way can also bug future runs to not have any nodes.
 * Back-tracking through a door you just took is the fastest and safest way to clear all rooms. Takes 15 seconds to get all the spawn points this way, and often leads to the mermaids room in under 20 seconds.
 * Back-tracking works best if you go through the right hand path. In the case where this drops you back at the starting zone, go right again.
 * Included in the drop tables are rare drops of extra lanterns, bringing Xon, Locke , , or the , will help net you slightly more lanterns.
