    You all act like SE / FFXIV have ever brought anything back from prior seasonal events (if so it's an extremely small number).

    You get one chance to be playing when it drops and if you're not playing you pay for it via the mogstation. And you never know when it will go to the mogstation. Could take 6 months, could take years.

    Veteran healers don't care if we need to heal, but right now we don't. We want interesting things to do during the downtime other than a 30s dot and a single filler spell that hasn't changed from lvl 4 to lvl 90.
    Dead DPS do no DPS. Raised DPS do 25/50% lower DPS. Do the mechanics and don't stand in bad stuff.
    Other games expect basic competence, FFXIV is pleasantly surprised by it. Other games have toxic elitism. FFXIV has toxic casualism.[/LIST]

    Moslty because A: putting it on the mogstation counts in that it makes the items accessible again and B: they DID legit bring back events beofe, like a few weeks back they did Yo-Kai, XI and DQX events the former of which is still ongoing and the later 2 of which and XIII was reran at least once.

    Your examples aren't seasonal events, they're collaborations. You are comparing apples to oranges.

    I’m fairly certain that at this point, aside from events that have only appeared once (FF15 and Garo) everything has made a return in some sense except for like.. titles. The Spriggan jacket, the moonfire happis, swimsuits, etc. It has less to do with the fact that it’s gone, but why it’s just this and nothing else that was available during the Make it Rain event. If all the items were retired yearly, fine, I get it. But there’s no post or anything even remotely resembling a hint as to what happened to it. I like the Mogstation. I’ll buy full outfits just for the shoes, and definitely don’t mind it going up. What I do mind is the fact that there is no easily discernible reason why the hairstyle couldn’t go up along with the emote.
