Lightning on the horizon (Lightning FFXIII event)

[Orophin]

My level 50 Miner, 50 Armorer, and 15 crafts and Botany would like to have a word with you.

How do you have multiple 50s and yet don't know that you can only have a max of two retainers?

[Altanas]

I think I know what all the FC houses will be full of in a few weeks time....

[Iecerint]

I'm disappointed. All of my war/magic classes are at 30+.

Oh well. Vanity is vanity. But I hope they let us store these items down the line. :[

What I find silly is the fact that armor and weapons for the entire thing seems to be level 13? Wth? At least give out weapons and armor based on level of the freaking different events. :-/

Vanity slots.

...you can get a retainer that holds 170 items per retainer (you can get multiple retainers).

Which means, let's presume, that you can get three retainers: one each town.

That means you can have 510 places. And you guys are complaining about the Armory not taking the gear.

Come on.

Honestly the problem isn't just the space its the fact that they clearly have a system in place to hold event/af/seasonal gear but refuse to utilize it. Why add in the armoire system if we can't store event items immediately.

Then again if we didn't have to wait until 2.2 for vanity slots you would actually see people running around in event gear beyond day one and not even thinking about the armoire.

Vanity slots.

Which won't be in the game for a while.

[Donjo]

It might be that all the items are level 13 because they're from a FF13 promotion.

This. There's really no other reason that the items would be Level 13. It is not a coincidence, and I think it's really cool in a silly kind of way.

[Shadow_Novus]

All these item rewards are going to be great thanks to the vanity system we have in place.

Oh wait...

[Zell1226]

Do we get anything from the first quest? I kind of want the armor right now.

Hello,

The item team has confirmed that the rewards listed on the Lightning Strikes information page are the total set of items available from this activity and that there are no plans to upgrade the item levels or stats. When the event goes live, these reward items cannot be stored via the armoire in the Inns, or a separate storage option. Also the team hasn't confirmed if any of these rewarded items will have a separate storage option in the future.

Figure some other way to store them then. Inventory is limited especially with the AF glitch still effecting users who have copies of AF gear sitting and taking up space in one's inventory!
