Lightning Event issue - PLEASE make it repeatable.

And, the gear can be stored in the armory chest at the inn... so... uh... not really clear why you ran out of space and decided to throw them out.

I didn't run out of space. In the OP I specifically said I had the male set then fantasia'd. At that point, they said they had no plans to add the gender exchange option, so it was pointless to own an untradeable, unsellable set of gear that I couldn't equip.

Hopefully it'll get added to the calamity salvager at some point but SE did not MAKE you discard those items. You could have kept them just on the simple fact if you decided to use fantasia again and switch your gender back.

But I'm not going to... which makes a silly reason to keep them.

Which makes more sense:

-Make the event repeatable (which hurts absolutely no one)
-Spend real-world money on a fantasia to switch gender, which you may not even want to do, just to be able to use the gear

I know which one makes more sense to me.

Is there not an NPC that will sell you the gear without doing the quests like they do for all the other events? And I find it funny that everyone threw their stuff out too since you can put event gear in your armoire to save inventory slots.

You can't re-claim any of these items from the Calamity Salvager, which is basically my biggest complain about this. Everyone else saying you should've kept the pieces anyway, are missing a point I think. Like the OP, I was male when I did the quest and I have no intention of changing my character back to male, EVER. Why would I have kept Snow's outfit if I could never wear it, and SE had said there was never going to be a gender trade in option, AND the event was never going to come back again? Making those items re-claimable off the NPC seems like an easier fix than allowing you to re-do the quests, I mean I can grab my freaking Valentine's Day gear off him so why not?

I'm not sure why it's not available from the npc anyway, it's an event just like any other event that npc holds items to. Even if it's not a seasonal event it's still an event that awards event gear. :P

If you haven't finished the quests/fates though, I'd probably just go ahead and finish them off, get what gear you can from them just in case the items are made available through the calamity npc eventually, so you can at least have the full set then even if the event never comes back. At this point, Lightning is probably on its last run and it's only gonna be around for a week so I doubt they'll edit the event itself.

It seems to have hurt you, has it not though? I mean you never know what the devs will do in the future. Just having kept them is, what, two more slots in your storage? If you are that pressed for storage IDK what to tell you. If nothing ever came from them, oh well at least you did. If something like this change came through, you would still have them, great!
Never underestimate the power of "I want what they have!" QQ in the gaming community. Almost all unique/once only gear comes back at some point, or is updated/modified to include more people.

First off, how does the idea that satisfies everyone hurt me?
Second, like I said half a dozen times already, there was no point to keep male only gear when the devs specifically said they had no plans to make players able to gender exchange.
Third, "I want what they have QQ?" Haha, you mean the demand? The only reason the event is on at all?
And lastly, I said I would suck it up if the items weren't ddyeable all of a sudden. Whereas before it was an error on my part, I feel like its unfair now. I would certainly have held onto them if it was said they were making them dyeable.

Hi guys I have almost the same problem, When the event was on last time i was only high enough to gain the Bohemian Gloves, after the event ended and it was looking like it will never be held again i deleted them, now i have completed the rest of the quest line yesterday and i am missing the gloves.
In my opinion they should make it obtainable via the Calamity Savager +1

Please SE make it available :D
