On the topic of Lightning Strikes.

I think it is okay to have limited events that essentially come with their own set of limited awards. It adds some allure to the game as there will be items/achievements/etc... that only players during that time can attain. There is nothing wrong with that.

And lets face it, the event wasn't really that special or interesting outside of the rewards that could be collected.

Problem is, the rewards for this event were level 13, basically vanity, and yet you had to be level 45 to complete the whole set. Not everyone was able to do that. I threw as much time at the game as my life would allow on the second run through and still didn't make it to 45 before the event was over.

Same and I really want snows jacket but guess what? Having played MMOS for years and knowing exactly what a LIMITED EVENT IS I knew and know I will never get it. Begging for it because it "isnt fair" is ridiculous. Deal with it.

And some of us did the set once the first time, then made a brand new character and leveled it up to 45 to get the set again before the second event was over. Heck, I went from level 22 (2nd event start) to 45 before the event ended and claimed the remaining items I missed the 1st time. Wasn't particularly hard or difficult or even time consuming :/ Story mode quests and saved exploration for the last push from 40-45. if you save zone/area exploration as best you can until the 30's you get about 20k each explored area and a nice completion bonus when you finish the zone.

Sorry you missed out but they did have the event twice.
