    Just returned~ What events/collectables have I missed?

    Hello, I played in beta and through release until eventually deciding to take a break in November of 2010. My friend recently brought the game up in a discussion and after a look at all the recent changes, here I am! Rejoined just in time for the Halloween event.

    In Final Fantasy XI I was an avid participant and collector of events and event related items so I was curious as to what I've missed as far as collectable items, quests, Lodestone profile "pictures", and history "achievements" go.

    I've done a fair bit of research myself, but I wanted to check in and make sure I didn't miss anything.

    The Startlight Celebration:
    Christmas Hat, Body, & Feet. (Snatched all 3 up in the Market Ward)

    Were any quests, profile pictures, or history achievements added for this one?

    Heavensturn and the Usagi Kabuto:
    Three bunny hats. (Snatched all 3 up in the Market Ward)

    Were any quests, profile pictures, or history achievements added for this one?

    Valentione's Day:

    Was anything collectable added with this event?

    Little Ladies' Day:

    Was anything collectable added with this event?

    Hatching-tide:

    5 egg hats (Snatched up 4 out of 5 hats in the Market Ward, just missing the Midnight one!)

    A profile picture added for each egg hat.

    Achievements for obtaining each egg hat from the event.

    Was a quest added for this event?

    Firefall Faire—Bombards Ablaze!:

    5 rare/ex bathing suits.

    A profile picture.

    Achievements for the event.

    Was a quest added for this event?

    Hunter’s Moon: The Curse of Dalamud:

    1 Rare/ex earring.

    A profile picture.

    Achievements for the event.

    Was a quest added for this event?

    Foundation Day Cometh!:

    A profile picture

    Achievements for the event.

    Was a quest added for this event?

    All Saints’ Wake: Impish Impositions:

    Cookies and 4 Halloween hats! ^^

    A profile picture for each hat.

    Achievements for each hat.

    A quest~

    ------

    I also read about there having been achievements involving a man randomly appearing around certain camps mumbling about the end of the world? (I'm guessing its the same person from those Grand Company quests?) This is no longer obtainable?

    Is there anything else of collectable nature no longer available and is there anything currently available that I should be striving to obtain as a collector?

    I know there's a high chance of the major holiday events being repeated every year, but what about the more obscure ones like Heavensturn and the Usagi Kabuto, Hunter’s Moon: The Curse of Dalamud, and Foundation Day Cometh!?

    Thanks for the reply, though I'm not sure what that has to do with my question. ^^;

    Could anyone else fill me in on what collectable goodies I've missed since I've been gone?

    Didn't one of the events get canned because of the earthquake? (I could be totally imagining this.)
