Dev Request: Sell the Lightning event items on Mogstation!

[Attarik]

To start, this isn't a question regarding the event at all.

I'd like to ask the devs to, since previous event items are sold, to place the hairstyles and gears and other rewards from the Lightning Strikes/Returns events on the Mogstation for sale for a small real money fee and would appreciate support from the community since this would seem to be the only way for anyone to get these items now.

I am suprised they still havent placed the items from past cross over events on the mogstation. I reckon they are holding them back, because the event might return. Lightning Returns is still comming to steam, so maybe they are waiting for the steam version to release?

I'm guessing it will come during the 2 year anniversary celebration, along with the DQX and FFXI events.

Ask them to put things in-game, please, not in the cash shop. Thank you. Asking these kind of things is what got us where we are right now (with a cash shop on a P2P MMO that didn't have one for more than a year, not counting 1.0), so be more mindful about your requests.

Anyway, there's more threads requesting the same thing. No need for another one.

P.S.: I have them and I don't mind everyone else getting them too.

I am mindful of what I'm asking, that's why I'm asking for the realistic option instead of just thinking they'll hand it out for free.

People are just going to end up complaining that the event is back again, even though it doesn't affect them, and then those same people will complain about them being in the cash shop and they should be earned in game... .-.

Maybe add them to the Gold Saucer?

For the love of... Stop asking for things on the Mog Station. If this game should go F2P, then have at it, but so long as we continue to pay a subscription to play the game, all you're doing is shooting yourself in the foot.

Jeeze, people can't accept that it's a limited time item for a limited time event. They gave people two (or was it three?) chance to get that item. You didn't play during the first year of FFXIV, so you lot out. Should have join the game earlier.

Well that's the thing. The event offers nothing to players who did it back in 2013-2014 (and a sequel to the quests would need to exclude Lightning, since she cannot return to Eorzea), aside from the FATE's... but the only FATE's that actually make it possible for you to buy the XIII themed weapons are the level 10-13 FATE's.

They've already set the precedent for "limited time items" coming back, and the same can be said for hard to obtain items being made easier to obtain. Nothing is exclusive in this game. I honestly prefer it so if it's a limited time thing (event items) it cannot be obtained again, but if that's been thrown out of the window why make an exception here?
