I was under the impression the Shawl is deliverable within the same account?

I have heard it both ways so im gonna assume it isnt to err on the side of caution.

I can confirm Shaper's Shawl is not deliverable.

Just returned to the game a couple of weeks ago, won a rank 3. Haven't played for about a half year, so was curious if I could get any advice about a good choice from rank 3 category? xD
Main jobs are dnc, mnk, and whm. Leveling up nin currently which I'll probably use quite often once it's 99.
If you're leveling nin then you'll get a lot of use out of Uguisu.
ugusui is a great katana but the nm that it comes from is very easy to kill and spammable i'd suggest the most profitable pulse cell
Uguisu is a Katana and its from Meebles so no its easy to kill.
Forgive me for the stupid question, but is Meebles similar to VW?>.>;
When I stopped playing last time Meebles wasn't out yet, but I was doing a lot of VW. I was looking at Uguisu on BG Wiki and it's listed as Rare, similar to the gorget from Qilin. I've gotten like 6 gorgets from Qilin, so I wouldn't want to waste the marble on something that'd be pretty easy to get.

20 balls and 40k later, I ended up with.......18 fireworks and 2 statues. I was 2 numbers away from rank 4!
Bonanza is even more disappointing than Christmas.

Don't take this offensively, but based on the amount of stuff that your main character has, getting a catseye and restarting on a mule would be the best choice you could make. A lot of rare ex gear can be dboxed to mules too, which helps a bit. You could farm +2/seals/etc on your main and send them to the mule. Almost all the important items on your account from your equip history can be dboxed, excluding +2 and whatnot.

Cosigning. A quick skim of your equipment history suggests that virtually everything you currently have can be reacquired in less than a month's time. For your average person, 30,000 alexandrite is going to take substantially longer than that.

Did I wake up in time to buy this morning? Nope. Didn't even remember I needed to get them.
So calling my numbers here now:
42984, 73199, 82016, 00583, 22981, 66488, 12053, 77026, 52286, 43882
I thought for sure, that today until midnight was the last day, I wanted to wait as long as possible before being hosed with -10 inv space. Well, I forgot too, so at least we have our inv space for the next 2 weeks
So, would've been one rank 5 prize. Saved myself there.

I get where you are both coming from but in not an insane player i play very very slowly, ive been playing since PS2 launch on the account you guys have looked at and all i have to show for it its both ebisu ki's (not the rod, just the ki's) 85 gandiva and just shy of 475 days of play time. So for me to try to make a mythic would still take me FOREVER lol.

It's similar to Moblin Maze Mongers is the best way I could describe, but yeah it is relatively easy to obtain, I haven't seen it drop so >.>

As always, 9 losers and one rank 5 for me.
I would've been really happy with a Rank 4 Ark Scythe too but Rank 4 just isn't for me it seems.

So does anyone know if the magic skill up earing work on smn skill up?
It appears that you can send those on same Pol account so I am thinking of getting the magic one to skill up smn magic.
Do we have any idea how much of a boost it is on skill because otherwise i will take the Arc Tachi,

Yes. It helps summoning magic skill up. Any spell that pops up in the list under 'Magic' through the main menu. Arc Scythe is good for procs in Abyssea. Just a thought.

It would be nice if the mog bonazas gave weapons, armor, items that are specially exclusive to mog bonaza.

I'll agree with this sentiment. I got my Scythe during the Golden Gobbie Bag, and it has helped soooo much in abyssea.

ended up taking scythe myself since covering over 75% of red procs without having to play NIN works for me. *** NIN.

Instead of things that may or may not get me perma'd, here's an elephant playing basketball:
Slycer said: They had their legal teams in each region working on the issues around the Mog Bonanza to get it resolved. They're happy to announce that they've come to a settlement on this and will be able to resume hosting the Bonanzas with the next one scheduled for either late January or February. Usual suspects will be around including Cat's Eye, AA weapons, etc. (they asked for recommendations, too), and obviously more details will be announced as it gets closer.
| | | | | |  | | | | Ladies and gentlemen!
The event that adventurers' dreams are made of—the Mog Bonanza—has made its glorious return!
Without a doubt, linkshells throughout Vana'diel will buzz as adventuring comrades discuss the extravagant prizes they've set their sights upon, the numbers they'll employ to usher in their fortunes, and how they'll flaunt their winnings.
Learn how your dreams might be made reality via the Mog Bonanza!
