Correction of prices for optional items

Actually if u didn't beat the seasonal event you cant purchase the items its only if u have beaten it before that you can re purchase them, so your argument is invalid sorry to inform you, but wrong.

Tell that to my swimwear...

I think you're talking about the calamity salvager. You're correct that it sells to you only if you've done the events, but what the other person was talking about was the event vendor npc. Up until now, there were always vendors that were placed in the game during the event and taken out once the event ended, and they'd sell last year's event items for gil. That's how all the newer players were able to get access to the older yukatas and bikinis back during the summer event.

For people thinking this NPC didn't exist, here's proof:

$2.75 for the Pumpkin Heads
$4.50 for the Halloween Costumes <- same as the new Minions

Kind of ludicrously priced if you ask me.

Especially considered the precedent was these were available for very little Gil until suddenly ripped from the in-game vendor without notice.

Make it $1.50 & $3.00 or $1.00 & $2.00.

yes roris that is true but who wants to wait a year for those? they are unobtainable till that event comes back, and if you missed the event you can 1 wait till next year, and 2 now you have second choice you can buy them. that's what i meant by my post he was saying why buy something you can get in game which you cant if the player hasn't beat the quest or if you subbed late. so no harm in having it on the store.

Thanks so much Roris, I'll edit my original post in my petition thread with those links.

@Parz3val,

I completely agree. The prices remind me so much of Tera and other Korean type of cash shops. I have a bad feeling we're soon to have 'rental' items. If you'd like to show SE that this isn't acceptable please check out my petition thread.

Rayder_Griever,

The whole argument is that they're ONLY available in the cash shop now. Those NPCs were taken out. You can no longer get them unless you pay for them.

They said they wont be available ever again in game from the events? plz send quote from fan fest i didn't hear that part

Well you were calling them flat out wrong and saying their argument was invalid. As for people waiting I personally wouldn't mind waiting at all, I didn't participate in a lot of 1.0 seasonal events and was glad the wait was worth it because I got most of those items this time around in 2.0 with gil. Like I've also said before in this thread, if they did a limited time out of season sale after the events themselves had finished, I would have no issues with that, as long as those items where purchasable with gil again for the duration of said event.

Proof is with this current Halloween event. The event NPCs only sell this year's seasonal gear, you can no longer purchase past seasonal event gear from previous Halloween events, so no, they aren't available in game anymore as rewards from the events.
