Will lightning strikes event ever return?

As the title says. Just curious honestly. Really want that Snow gear haha. Anyone know if they will bring it back this year?

Most realistic chance of it coming back is when they release Lightning Returns for PC. Whenever that is

If the event does comeback then they're going to have to make new glamour weapons for the new jobs. Maybe even new outfits from the other main cast other than Lightning's and Snow's.

Edit: I can see one for machinist right now.

I would love to see the event since I haven't heard about this game nor was I financially stable to play it but that being said.. The event has been there 3 times already, I don't think we will get the chance again but I would be fine being in the Cash Shop as I'd love the Lightning outfit and hairstyle myself.

I really do hope that they bring this event back. Personally I would love Lightnings hair or maybe even Fang's gear (as glamours) for my Dragoon.

Would be nice if it returned.

Couldn't you have posted in one of the many other Lightning Return event threads?

Anyway, if they bring the event back, it will only benefit new players. Players who have already done the event back in 2013 can't do the quests (which means they will only get to "enjoy" the FATE's. If I remember correctly, you can only buy the weapons using tokens from the lowest level FATE's).

Just throw it all in the cash shop /endthread

Given the other two are on there, I'd say its a fairly high chance. Granted I also admit its the only lightning involved game I may try and enjoy.

Oh, it is the daily new thread for Lightning Returns.

I don't think so. They'll probably put the gear in the cash shop most likely........which is gonna piss ppl off.

Wouldn't mind this. When I rerolled, it meant I no longer have all my Lightning event items, and I'd love to get them on my new main. :(

Just put it in the cashshop for those that missed the event.

Why not just put the items all on the cash shop? I'd buy them

I mean, the above thread is not even that old yet, pile the complaints in there.

To be fair, this is the guy's very first post. He probably hasn't spent enough time on the forums to know how common this kind of request thread is, and if he's new to gaming forums in general might not be familiar with the search tools that are available. Years down the line, if he still frequents these forums, he may occasionally look back at his first post and cringe, "Really? THIS was how I introduced myself the the forum community? Please kill me..."

To the original poster: It is unlikely that the event will happen again. On the other hand, I never expected it to happen a second or third time, but it did. Regardless, I think it's much more likely that these items will wind up in the cash shop, as others have mentioned, much like the Thancred and Minfilia minions did (spoils from another one-time event likely never to be repeated).

The ponytail hairstyle available at the Gold Saucer shows that they have the ability to add hairstyles via a consumable item, so it's certainly not impossible to have Lightning and Snow hair available in the cash shop, as well.

I wouldn't buy them, but I also think this is the better solution. The event itself wasn't much to write home about. It was just a series of FATEs that ended in Lightning saying "for some reason I'm here, pls look forward to my new game!" People did it entirely for the items. It was just an interactive advertisement that we got glamours for participating in.

Yeah and then they'd also need to add weapons for 3 new jobs. Dunno if they'd really want to do that again. To be honest this has been beaten so bad that the horse isn't dead, it is buried. I honestly only see this being added in as vanity in the cash shop nothing more.

Yeah even if they don't bring the event back it would be nice to see it on the mog station to buy with real money. I was just curious thanks guys!

I am pretty sure it's been beaten to death that they are NOT bringing this event back. I can see the potential for selling the armors at least though. /shrug

Lightning never strikes the same place twice.

People need to stop making new threads about this. If it comes back, it comes back. Personally, I'm not too excited to see hundreds of Lightining clones running around but I don't mind if they decide to bring the event back.

Not sure why everyone is so butt hurt about this thread. Just started coming onto the forums I've been playing the game for almost a year now though. Didn't know you could search for specific threads so my bad on that part, however if you're tired of the threads stop looking at them lol. Thanks for the help to those who did help though!

Sadly people just would rather complain about the same thread appearing rather than telling someone they can search for the topic..

Bring it back SE please :'(

Although I got everything from the event,

I would like it to return with new male/female sets and NIN/HW Jobs weapons.

I hope it will never come back, we have enough kikoo-lightning for now

Why? It has returned like 3 times already even though it was suppose to be a 1 time event.
I do not want 100 or so people with the same lightning glam as i am using :P

There are already 100 or so people with that glamour, believe me.

I don't know why people glamour it so much, looks kinda ugly to me. To each their owm. I'm just hoping it comes back so we can FFXIII themed weapons for the new classes (including NIN).
