    Previously Missed Event Gear

    I was wondering if we will ever be given the chance to get some of the event gear again at some point before 2.0 comes? Unfortunately due to some PC problems I missed out on the Christmas reindeer gear and the dragon head gear I was hoping that maybe in some way we would be given the chance to get them again before the big 2.0. Possibly as rewards in the GC or some way to earn them. I know a few others that are missing some that would like some of them and were trying to collect them.

    I sure hope not.

    I'm missing the dragon helmets myself and I regret not getting them, but if people can just get the old event gear it kind of spoils the fun for me. I like event gear to be exclusive to that event, a sort of "I was playing at this time" kind of thing.

    I disagree

    I understand where your coming from but as someone who has been playing since launch and collecting them I hate the idea of missing out because of PC issues.

    Already been said they aren't doing it, and for the exact reason Sol mentioned - it shows that you were playing at the time.

    They have plenty of seasonal events throughout each year, so it's no biggy.

    I missed the st valentine's items due to the game being so unappealing. Now it's back on its good side it echos in the back of my head every time I log in.

    I also missed the special necklace from the grand companies due to not knowing it even existed. Seriously. They should have advertised that better man.

    Anyway,
    I don't know how I feel about this. I love how there are some limited edition events and prizes, but I don't think it should be the seasonal ones.
    I think they should keep all quests and add to that the current year's new ones. So eventually christmas for example, would mean a lot of cool things to do for new players and not just one thing.

    I wonder how long will they be able to keep this up having already given away the santa suit. Thats a christmas staple right there.

    And I would see where you're coming from if you were missing out on anything but... Most events last quite a while (10 days or even 2 weeks) and the items are purely cosmetic 100% of the time.

    There's just no point in making them events if you can get the same stuff later on.

    Little elf suits? Gift wrap bow head gear? Pine tree earrings?

    Could go on forever, it's not that hard.

    I'd support them adding a chance to get the older ones during the new events. At least before 2.0 for those who stuck with the game through all the hard times.

    Problem is there is also achievements attached to the events.

    That's not the problem, that's the whole point.
