Lightning Strikes Event

[Venos]

My question is, how do we obtain the rest of Snow's and Lightning's outfit?

[Naunet]

Level up....

Right, I'll get right on leveling 5 other characters to 45. We'll just forget the whole idea of having those characters to level whenever I don't feel like playing my main, so leveling them all up in one go would kind of defeat the purpose of their existence...

It's ridiculous to lock the outfit behind level walls. And almost as ridiculous is the way the outfits are gender locked.

It's not SEs fault that some of you decided to play 13 different characters instead of focusing on one.

You say this as though it's something new in the MMO world.

It's also ridiculous that anyone should have to work for a reward. I understand a little more the people who don't have a char to 50 who wont be able to finish all the chapters, but again, if you haven't put the time in like some other people, then no, you should not just be handed the rewards, I have a job, family, etc. and prioritize my own life. If you put other things above the game (please say you do) then you made that choice and should not be whining when you don't get the same stuff other ppl are who put in the time and effort on this particular venture.

That aside, its different to be whining that "oh, I can do it on my main but not all the way through on my other chars." I choose to make alts as well, like having alts, but if they are not the right level for certain content then they just are not going to be able to participate. Its not like there will never be any more events that they will be able to participate in.

I must say i'm very disappointed with this event.
Making it a Fate was a bad idea, it would have been much more fun as a Dungeon instance.
You can't even see lightning when there are tons of people on the screen.
And making the difficulty designed for 4 players when there are at least 50-100 players fighting makes it a bit underwhelming.
On the bright side at least we are getting final fantasy 13 themed weapons and gear.

Also, if I someone changes sex after using a fantasia, can change the clothes in any way to the ones of their corresponding new sex?

This is a fun promo event, not some crazy serious raid. You need to chill out about the "work hard, earn your reward!" crap. The gear is for level 13. Why shouldn't a level 13 be able to obtain all the gear, hmm?

[PapesseLudovique]

Question: Can you earn the Otherworldly Parcel more than once, and turn them in for a weapon more than once? Or, do I have to pick only a single weapon reward?

I'd like to know this, too. I've completed the quest once, then just ran to do the fate again, but I got no parcels the second time I did the fate. Are you guys going to make the quest repeatable (hopefully!) so that we can get more than one weapon on our characters?

Yes you can. I have all but one weapon right now.
You get two packages per fate (for a silver or gold rating).

Also remember, the fate only counts for the event, if Lightning shows up. About 25% of the way in, Lightning either shows up, or doesn't. If you don't see her dialogue across your screen, that means it is just the regular version of the fate, and you won't be getting the tokens. From what I've seen however, is it goes every other spawn. So if she doesn't appear, if you wait, she'll most likely be in the next one.

I was wondering if there has been any word about whether or not we'll be able to store the weapons/armor in the armoire eventually.
