    If people still want these items put them behind the paywall..

    I am against the store. but it's here...
    If you miss out on an item.. you come in later or just where to lazy to do it the 1st time. They have a way to get the item... it's at the mogstation. So ya...

    Commendations.
    If I play dps I only give it out to other dps.
    If I play tank I only give it out to healers.
    If I play healer I only give it out to tank.

    Only if they should be getting a commendation.
    There are always exceptions to the rules!

    Yes D: It's so much better to get a new thread for this instead of bumping a fairly recent one. [/sarcasm]

    Also, if you don't want it bumped, don't bump it yourself ^_~

    Considering this is an mmo which constantly gets newer subscribers SE can't ever pull that event down to accommodate EVERYONE. that'd be like bringing 1.0 back for the "main scenario that all subscribers got to see" during that time. To have all subscribers always have a chance at all events seems like an unwinnable battle.

    How is bringing back an entire game even comparable in the amount of effort it would require? This is literally just throwing the items on the Mogstation, they do that all the time.

    Yeah, the short essay about people needing to get over not getting items they want because they (the writer) had to get over not getting the item they want. :B

    I will reference you to my previous post.

    My longer post about raiding was about creating dialogue between raiders and non raiders, sorry if you felt like that was my personal statement of "to hell with everyone else, give me mah pixels." It was about a variety of motivations and challenges that face raiders. Pretty sure I said the reason I raid is for the sense of challenge and story, you should go back and read the post more carefully. If you're going to try and cross reference another post to help prove your point in this thread, at least bother to carefully read the source you're citing so you don't look like a presumptuous buffoon.

    Don't you think it's presumptuous of you to assume it's just simple coding fix to put the item in the cash shop or to reintroduce the event?

    Lastly, just because this is a fantasy world does not mean it's exempt from real life effects, such as time. Everything has a shelf life, even this game being on live servers has a shelf life. I am sorry if that concept escapes you.
    Let me highlight it even more for ya.

    Yes, and then I asked "What does raiding have to do with the FFXIII items coming back and/or going in the cash shop?"

    You do realize the "essay" I'm talking about is your post before that one, right? >o>()

    Do I really lament about the dalamud horn? Nope, it's just one of many cool looking head pieces in the game, I can find another. It simply serves as an example that things are not available indefinitely. I am not going to demand, like some infantile spoiled brat, that 1.0 players give up their unique 1.0 loot to sate some obsessive impulse to have everything in the game.

    Check my post history, I did not even bother posting when the event came back, because I did not care. What I do care about is when SE decides to not bring the event back and people whine and complain about it. The FFXIV team is much smaller than other MMO's. I would rather them work on new events instead of revisiting old ones.

    They are just pixels, get over it.

    Eh.

    I'm gonna go with "tough noogies, you missed the event," on this one.

    I wouldn't be surprised that they will eventually be up in the Cash Shop, but I wouldn't hold my breath for them.

    On the argument of niche items, it's safe to say the players has earned them when the event took place. Yeah, you do see dated items like the Yukatas and now the Robes in the Cash Shop, but these are traditional to the Eorzean lore.

    The Lightning event, however, was not. It was simply to promote the third installment of FFXIII. A crossover between games. A one-time occurrence.

    In the end of the event storyline, Lightning straight up states she would most likely not remember the player and Eorzea, nor could she freely return to Eorzea. She just goes wherever she is told to go. Which is why the event was called "Lightning Strikes" and "Lightning Strikes Twice," to promote the game on their release dates in real life.

    I hope this makes sense.

    As much as I don't mind it being in the Cash Shop, SE is pretty known to get their lore on point and have it make sense for Eorzea. I'm sure we'll get cooler items and hairstyles in future events.

    Oh yeah, I agree that putting on mogstation would be best solution, I was referring to re-introducing the event every single month cause that's the frequency somebody sees a "lightning/snow" and comes here to ask for the event again. We had it come back twice after initial event already totaling 3 times, this is already more often than the other events that have occurred. Personally I'd rather have a NEW event but I must be the minority in that aspect.
