Best best way to find them is to catch them right when they are distributed, then run through all the smallest zones as fast as you can. They show up on widescan once someone is within spawning range for them, so you can write an addon that slams WS and reports when it finds them, but it isn't possible to do something like inject 0x016 and get their locations until someone has already spawned them.
Not entirely accurate (have written a fairly sus addon myself for dealing with them). The tablets only become "active" when someone gets in range of them, setting the visible/active flags on the entity and responding to 0x016s etc. Once someone leaves range they will turn those flags off and not respond again.
However, this behavior is dependent on if it's active in the zone or not. If a tablet has been spawned since server reset in the zone, been found in a previous set, then a new set is distributed and that zone is not selected, it will respond to 0x016s as an inactive/unspawned NPC. So you can at least find out certain zones to exclude as the month goes on. Similarly, if one was found last time in the zone and you fire it after they go out and now it doesn't respond to the 0x016, you know it's actually in the zone somewhere.
Server maint will wipe everything to a defaulted state again though and every entity will not respond again. So this information is only useful when you track all pops for the month and it becomes easier on the latter cycles. In general there's only like 4 sets max before a reset though and the first is useless.
You can also watch on the incoming entity data 0x00E for the tablet and run around and at least get notified if your client gets it which means you entered the range for it to become active, which can be useful as the visual spawn can be hard to catch.
Disclaimer: I do not recommend abusing these packets as the client typically doesn't use them legit and it would be pretty trivial for them to catch the behavior if they really wanted to. Use at your own risk for how much you want tablet rewards, lol.
I was more curious what people's methodology for scouting them was.... in a vanilla way. I dont really intend to use 3rd party to expedite the process. If allseeingeye allowed me to see all the possible spawn locations and then I'd mark them on a map and just check those spots, that'd be one thing, but having something scape packets for me is a step beyond what I'm willing to do.
That being said, what are the smallest zones worth checking? Behemoth's dom., Valley of Sorrow etc.? Checking North Gustaberg sounds like a fool's errand |

Does anyone know if separate assets for making the maps (backgrounds, icons etc) were made public, so others could potentially keep it going?

Is there an addon for the JSE Reive capes trade? Cape + Refractive Crystal.
I know it's likely not possible to have an addon like MAGA because of how differently the two systems work.
But it should be possible to have at least an addon that does:
1) targets the npc
2) trade the selected cape + 1 crystal
You can't do that with macros because you can't trade more than 1 item with a macro.
So yeah, I wonder, is there such an addon around? Would make it much less annoying to go through this process for hundreds of trades.

Merry Christmas everyone! We are ~4-5/6 at this point with some potential backups for the weekend. Ideally looking for an experienced Aria BRD and possibly Corsair. Thanks!

Still not listed on FFXIAH, what's going on? Rooks has to update the FFXIAH database for these new items, similar how (usually) Funk updates BGWiki with the new items. |

It's a shiny on the ground right? At least can play wire frame if using windower to see it easier
Do the tablets have seperate trackable id's? Or multiple id's for every tablet spawn spot in a zone? That would make finding them by cheater means a lot easier

Interesting... maybe the silver voucher is the booby prize of booby prizes because I already had an imp box on my main.

I suspect the booby prize for rolling something you already have might be a silver voucher. At least that's what I got from the rainbow chest on my main today.

One thing I don't think people have mentioned is finding mog-tablets. I've probably found a couple dozen or so and gotten every reward.
Any recommendation for finding these? Ive seen a few JP resources show "spawn locations" but they dont seem fully accurate or up to date.
Never found one, but also never actively sat down and tried |

Nice job fellow Norwegian viking!

From rainbow chests on both main and same account mule : two impish boxes.
At first I wondered if it was the booby prize for rolling something you already had like the gobbie chocolates on the abjuration dial, but then I remembered that the boxes are tagged rare too.
So no, just bad luck.
I'm also two for two on Impish Boxes on mules that have no other notable gear. |

Start tracking. It's on a pretty easily repeatable pattern, and no some will never pop up for certain people. I had several people go through their pattern till I found my model, and then just made a character to match the one I needed for my match for the second title
Confirming this, I think that the possible options are based on your character race/face combination. While some are indeed more likely than others for a given character, some will quite literally never show up at all (much like it will never request someone of the same race as you are). If you've done several hundred rerolls, try remaking the mule as a different face/race combo. |

I'm at 912 completed RoE ...how are people getting over 1,000?
The BGwiki page is missing Wanted 2/3 (which I've already done):
https://www.bg-wiki.com/ffxi/Category:Records_of_Eminence#Unity
Do I have to change to each Unity leader and do their Shared RoEs too? (I thought those repeated though, so will they still count as a firs time completion and have their yellow circle removed if I complete them?) >.>;
No, the repeatable ones do not count toward the total count. You probably have some that aren't unlocked yet. There are a bunch that only unlock from completing others, from progress in missions, Escutcheon progress, etc. |

You don't have to swap unity leaders at all, but aside from those (and some select few repeatable ones) if there is the exclamation point or whatever symbol next to it, do it at least once. There's 1084 in total.

Your server lost besieged? Shite! I wasn't aware that happened anywhere anymore. I had one of the titles on Lakshmi too. Mamools took it, and then a second time Mamools took it again so I was kinda bummed it wasn't trolls or undead, ha. I only saw two losses on our end before I stopped playing, but now with besieged updates I doubt it will ever happen again |

I stupidly picked the 5B elvaan female model when I started. It refuses to come up. I wonder if they weighted the quest based on people's actual models in the game and I'm the rarest pop. Start tracking. It's on a pretty easily repeatable pattern, and no some will never pop up for certain people. I had several people go through their pattern till I found my model, and then just made a character to match the one I needed for my match for the second title |
