    Weird thing is, if you look at XIVDB you see that the trees were meant to be obtained by turning in fallen stars obtainable during the event. However on the official event site there are no signs of the trees. So if they put it in cash shop now it is clear they cut it from the game to just make an extra few bucks.

    XIVDB parses the dats deeper than what SE's site does because SE doesn't want to throw in "spoilers", the people who run XIVDB doesn't care. Fyi, if it were to be in the cash shop it would have been added in the 2.45 update to the mog station.

    Until now ALL events had listed ALL items you could obtain when the event page went online. So that point is not really valid. Like I said, if they add it to the cash shop it is going to be really clear they cut it from the game (since XIVDB clearly shows it was inteded to be a part of the event). That is where I, someone that actually supports the cash shop, draw the line.

    As long as we have people still defending ALL the choices Square Enix makes and as long as we have people that keep shouting "it is optional anyway" they will keep abusing the system.

    Um...y'know...just a thought, but... the Tokyo FanFest stream package is not up for sale yet, is it? I can see, just fine, an additional Christmas item or two getting added to the cash shop along with that. :/

    "Holy crap, people are buying up weddings like crazy..."
    "Quick! Cut those trees from the Starlight event and put them in the cash shop!"

    Hopefully it's just an oversight, but they haven't given me much reason to assume that lately...

    That happens just before the event goes live so I actually wouldn't be surprised if it ends up as a perk for attending the fan fest for a specific one, kind of like you kind of had to go there (or pay the premium stream) to get the mog suit.

    The irony of this statement is the main event item are usually the outfits.
