I've seen characters wearing swimwear in colours other than black or gold. Where are these coming from?
Dyeable Swimwear

Those are likely from 1.0's summer events, and/or 2.0's summer event last year (which had 1.0's swimsuits)

These are rewards from the 1.0 summer event.

The summer event should be starting soon....I'm looking forward to that.

They're not dyeable, they're just a set of 4? colors that were available in that event... like http://xivdb.com/?item/2973/Red-Summer-Top

Ah, thanks guys. I really hope they come back around. I was really sad we didn't get a Solstice event. :(

You can forgive them for last year since the game had just be released and they needed time to stabilise it. It's an issue all MMO developers have too with recurring events. There's always an excuse that we're working on patch x so we can't give it time. While we all want patch x to come out you can't forget about the yearly events. Yearly events are enduring content and get used every year for the life of the game and should be improved upon every year. Patch x will be played intensively for a few months but after that will mostly be forgotten, especially when a new expansion pack comes. A yearly event is always there, every year. To me a yearly event is more important that patch content since it lasts 'forever'; it's current every year.Quote:

It would be nice for SE to release dyable swim gear.

06-23-2014, 08:59 AMNutzI'm a bit hopeful, but reserved in my hope for better holiday/ seasonal events from SE. All through FFXI they produced events so dull that I almost never bothered. Frequently they were exactly identical year after year so there was truly no point in every redoing them after the first year. Hopefully they change things up, but I fear more short dull quests that involve you completing some FATE, possibly multiple times for rewards that are at best mildly useful for vanity.Quote:

I hope SE do update them significantly each year to keep them interesting or I just wont bother. -

To take something away from DC Universe Online, they have their holiday events every few months and have it set so that you don't have to do the content once and then you can just shove it aside.
It's repeatable and you use the rewards to buy the stuff you want. The only downside to that is that it IS repeatable and that can be boring after a time. -

I just want the Yukatas! I'm sad I missed them in 1.0.
