Okay, so out of boredom I tried the new MMM. It was fucking weird but I got 67 marbles from it and only had the two basic runes on it.

You start off in the Gusgen mines with goblins everywhere. You have to talk to a few of them and a Goblin named Chaperix will start to follow you.

There are a total of 4 Well of Passages. After talking to a goblin near one of the mines he will give you a little mission and you have to go down and complete it.

We entered the middle one first where we had to kill worms. They are rather low lvl but I don't know if that's how the maze is or if it was the lvl 40 Whm I had in my party(I wanted to be safe incase it was like Voucher01)

The more things we killed the higher lvl the Goblin became. I think he was lvl 3 by the time we were done with the worms. After that we went to the eastern most one and we got a couple crates. I destroyed all 3 and got Mana Boost, Hp Boost, Int, Mind, ect boost.

The 3rd well was the western one and we had to find a goblin cup. It was easy to find as it was a glowing ???. All the mobs were Bats and Funguars. Every few bats the goblin lvled and every Funguar the goblin lvled so when we fished the 3rd one the Goblin was lvl 23.

After we completed different wells we got Bronze Ingots and Beastcoin temp items. We had to talk to another NPC who gave Chaperix a weapon and had to get a key made to enter the 4th Well.

The 4th well is a solo battle. You enter the well with the Goblin but can't do anything. He and another Npc Goblin are fighting against 5(I think) slimes. You can't cure or help. If you didn't lvl him enough he would die.

It's a rather interesting new addition to the MMM and offers some laughs and a fuck ton of marbles. It took us about 25 mins of running around cause we had no idea what we were doing.

In the end we got 67 marbles, a Rune 096 and two augmented Goblin Cest which are lvl 60 belts.

Alright, did it a second time. The Goblin appears to get lvls the more actions he does. At first it was he attacked once, got a lvl, then attacked twice, and so. We got him up to lvl 41 in the end and got new items.

Keep updating this if you keep doing it. It's rather interesting to hear about.
 
Just to clarify, you ran around for 25 minutes or you completed this in 25 minutes? Because a 25 minute event that sounds as fun as you're describing is right up my alley.
 
LOL

I forgot about this feature.

Trying tonight. Is it solo only?
 
It is soloable. Prolly best to solo it. Lvl doesn't matter. Make sure to come /whm or something with Cure. Sometimes the goblin needs a cure.

The first run we spent 20 mins running around each room to make sure we got all the mobs and 5 mins for the Goblin to do his Maat fight.

The second run we fought mobs till the 25 min mark and 4 mins watching the goblin fight. It's a 30 min time limit.

I'm not sure how the end reward is decided yet. I saw some lvl belts on BG with much better stats then my lvl 60 belt.
 
So theres something soloable in this game? :o

I might find myself online for short periods messing with this then. Think BLM/WHM would work fine?
 
Okay, just did another run.

Here's what you do.

When you enter, you talk to a Goblin named Sonchostiq and then talk to Chaperix. He will begin to follow you. You have to complete missions and lvl your goblin up.

The left Well is fetch quests. Goblin named Fetchafox will tell you to find some item. It's a glowing ??? so it's not hard to find. I was only able to do one of those.

The middle one is destroy a certain number of mobs. First mission was kill 3 Fodder Worms. Second was kill 5 Dinky Bettles. Third was kill 10 Dinky Spiders. I managed to get all 3 of those done.

The Right Well is just destroy crates and get a ton of temp Items. First is 3 crates and second is 5. I didn't have time to do a third.

The temp items vary. The Mana boost, int potion, ect items are for changing his job. I don't know what job he starts out as but he is carrying a Axe. I upgraded his axe twice before I changed his job to a Mage.

I think changing the job changes the final battle. When we didn't change him, he fought against 5 slimes alongside another goblin. This time he fought animated weapons as seen here.

He was killing them like they were a joke. It got risky when he couldn't see the last two and he just wandered around. That wasted a good 2 mins and I was already at the 5 min mark. He finally killed them with under 1min left. I popped the chest and got 27 marbles and this item....

I'm not sure but the final battle and reward might depend on what job the goblin is. This is all 100% soloable. All you need is /whm for cures and you can even assist him cause sometimes he's a weak little bitch.
 
I've been runnign these with Him and we just had Chaperix curse in Japanese.

More theories time

Bosses appear to be random. We did 8 missions, got a Behemoth. We had put Chaperix on mage and he got his ass handed to him.

If you do enough missions, he will get a revitalizer and he will use it during the boss. It seems to unlock a goblin 2hr.

Mage 2hour is called Elemental Blitz. He summons like 7 Ice Elementals and they all cast a spell then leave. He had used it on the Behemoth and it took him from 97% down to 50~%.

Ranged attack 2hour is Bomb Blitz which is a a normal Gobbie Bomb but does a shit ton more dmg. He used it while he fought the 4 slimes(Thought there was 5 but there were only 4, I don't know why the number changed from yesterday). He finished the slime fight in under 30 seconds.

From what I have been doing and seeing. Solo is possible but you can't finish many missions. I did 6 solo. With 3 people you can do all 9.

My group had 1 person do 2 of the fetch quests, another take Chaperix and do the kill quests, and one more person to destroy all the crates. Anyone can take Chaperix so whoever gets whatever items doesn't matter.

Myrrh, Sulitas, and I have been checking this out the past couple of days. This is really fun and the only time you'll not be annoyed at a Bomb Toss. Here's what happened as a notreadymage against Behemoth.

Alright, so I decided to give this another go.

I went solo and was only able to do a few missions so Chaperix got his ass handed to him at the boss but I found some interesting stuff out.

After I did all 3 destroy quests and changed Chaperix's job, the same Npc told me about a secret boss. I went back to the middle well and there was a single Wyvern there. Chaperix killed it with no issues and afterwords I went back to Switchlox or w/e and he told me Chaperix learned a secret move. I'll upload the SS later. I am very curious about it.
 
So, we just did 5 Chaperix runs. 4 runs got us ass belts and our last one with a bought Tabula got this...
