This. We just got a huge expansion with two extra updates a few weeks afterwards, and we have two events coming (Moonfire and the Rising). Devs needing to save time because they're already giving us a lot of stuff isn't laziness. Given them a break.

Besides, I find the Moonfire rewards very nice myself. First of all, they're releasing an improved version of my favourite type of set, which my WHM character couldn't wear (and she still couldn't have worn it if we simply got "dyeable dungeon sets"). Second because we can have the dyeable version *now*, otherwise we'd have had to wait many months, if not until 5.0 itself. Third, because I'm personally an alt-holic and now my low level alts have a chance to wear it too.

(Oh, and fourth, I really, really disliked the sleeves and extra details in the original sets; they somehow screamed like cheap e-bay cosplay to me, so I like the Moonfire top much better *amused*).

tl;dr, I don't think the event is bad at all, I understand why it's this way, and I sure will be enjoying it.
