I totally agree (with the need for events), but I think it has to do with the current status of the game. Really, no one should be playing this game right now. They should just shut down the servers while they fix the core mechanics. Until then it doesn't make too much sense to add activities such as this because they will be built based on a game that probably won't exist (in its current state) in a year. All that said, I would love to see things like Nyzul, Einjerhar (sp?), Limbus, Sea, that were fun events that gave varieties of gear for different purposes. Unfortunately, in addition to the aforementioned issues, this game isn't set up to be gear dependent like FFXI was, and therefore setting up events that spam out gear will probably phase out any other events because there will then be a new better piece and no one will want whatever the last event dropped. So how do you make events that allow you to build up gear but also don't kill previous content? Not sure what the answer is for FFXIV.
