Sorry, the Shantotto event will be forever mixed up with A Shantotto Ascension Add-on in my brain.Quote:

Both events were run concurrent with an event in FFXI featuring Eorzean spriggans showing up in Vana'diel (FFXI players got spriggan costumes for gear as a reward), and were in celebration of different milestones in FFXI (the first one was to celebrate FFXI's eleventh anniversary of service, with the second celebrating FFXI's official winding up of it's main scenario with the Rhapsodies of Vana'diel story, hence why Iroha who was the main character of that scenario appeared in Eorzea/Hydaelyn.). FFXI will be celebrating it's 20th anniversary in 2022 so... maybe in a couple more years we may see another crossover FFXI event perhaps?
But we're still waiting for the hinted FFVII crossover event (which is especially prudent given just how many FFXIV references are in FFVII Remake) so it's possible we'll see a FFVII event before another FFXI one.
Wild Idea! Bring back old events!

Definitely want the regalia mount... I’m one of those that decided to do that on alt like chars and made a true main after the fact... but I had strong hope I would see it again but here we are.. is sad...

Well, it looks like those wanting the FFXI events to return got their wish (well, at least the second one): the second FFXI event is returning on the 28th of May.

05-26-2020, 07:47 PMMsQiThe story was nice and the rewards are great. People would group up and do FATEs together and it was a good way to at least start leveling alt Classes/Jobs. I hope they extend it to higher level zones.Quote:
