The Rising - Another disappointing event

[Sotaris]

So I can't be the only one that was looking forward to seeing some cool glam or something from Rising event next week.

So we're getting a re-colored umbrella and nothing else worth mentioned.

I don't want to sound entitled but these seasonal event has really gone down in quality since like 2018 imo.

Thoughts?

I don't ask for much, a nice glam. Often it's just a consumable with 10 charges. It's over, I feel like the days of different colored Yukata, and many other things... And yes, Yukata and cherry blossoms, it was free a few years ago, some found it good to store them and resell them at a high price.

That makes a certain number event that I don't even do anymore, I check the reward first because that's what it's all about, it isn't the fact to living a wonderful adventure that say no more than 1 or 2 hours.

Yeah I agree. This is the first event that I go, meh not even going to do it.
The summer event was disappointing but at least I could get a mount (that we see on mogstation in a year or two). Here it's an item i will never use.

I think you guys make a way bigger deal of them than they're meant to be. Some of the little quest lines can be kind of endearing but the rewards just end up in the armoire/trash never to be even looked at again most of the time anyway.

The Rising is meant to be the anniversary event of ARR. So It should be a great deal for us who been around since ARR or before that.
Just cause you trash all the rewards from previous year doesn't mean we all do. With your mentality I guess we can cut out all seasonal events cause it just trash rewards, yes?

But I agree that Rising been rather disappointed many years. It was a nice nostalgia with the earring few years ago though for us who played 1.0 and the fate instance was pretty cool nostalgia.

They're goofy little events to get people hanging out together in a specific spot. I think you guys make a way bigger deal of them than they're meant to be.

I really have the impression from many events that it's all about doing lame quests where you're the minion of the npcs, for a meaningless reward.

And that it allows SE to put back on sale the free goodies from last year on the Mogstation.

Rising has always been on the weaker side of the events. I did like the one where we met Yoshi and the team

Was wondering when this post would show up after I saw the reward...

The Rising has never given Glam as far as I can remember.. its always been a minion.. a little sad we didn't get a windup Emet or an Ascian of some kind..

There were earrings in 2018 (that some 1.0 players threw a fit over), but other than that it's pretty much always been a minion and/or housing furnishings yeah.

The reason the "1.0" players threw a fit was thos White Raven Earrings where only obtainable in 1.0 via the Extreme/hard mode version of the Van Darnus fight in which to even beat the fight you hard to farm the adds within it to get an item you needed to craft a certain item (and gave enough of it for the whole party to have to use for multiple attempts at learning to clear the fight) to protect you from the insta wipe spell that Van Darnus did. so yeah those players are going to throw a fit over it.

Yes, which is what I said? I didn't make a value judgement, I said they threw a fit.

So what I said (the whole much longer reason as to why the 1.0 players threw said fit) is what you said but it is not what you said as I didn't take anything out... interesting if I misread it then I did but you know how the internet is with out expanding on it people can read things differently as opposed to speaking to someone to hear vocal inflections.
