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.

Still not listed on FFXIAH, what's going on?

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.

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.

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

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):

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?) >.>;
