Either the event needs to run again someday or they need to give us some other way to get the gear. I missed it the first time around and then I worked my butt off and played as much as I could given work and family, but could not get high enough level to totally complete the event, much less on more than one character (m & f) if I wanted to. There shouldn't have been a level 45 requirement for EVENT gear (especially given that it was only level 13 gear).
