    If it's not a vanity item it's fair game to come back in vanity fashion. Let's not confuse rare / collectible with "vanity."
    These rare / collectible sets are currently being sold/traded for 1b+ per piece between collectors, how does forgotten event not provocate massive outcry and drama between the community when these sets are releasing as vanity for a few plat?

    i’m a bit over the forgotten event entirely. It’s a waste of everyone’s time and energy, nobody is going to farm 4-5 days into an event where they loot vanity that sells in auction for 1k, not to mention the vanity sale in store is left until the very end of the event. Perhaps have the event run for 48 hours, put whatever sets for sale in the store and be done with it. Focus more on the events that everyone enjoy

    Maybe they should change some stuff in the event perhaps, maybe not vanities which no one wants perhaps? Though, having all vanities which people actually want would drive prices down. If we have those vanities that sell for 1k, then who is going to invest time into the event. So maybe the event needs a rework somehow to have that balance of being worth to grind but not destroying the economy - much easier said than done.

    Maybe they should have an event where players can use disliked vanities to craft BOUND vanities of their choice from a selected list composed by community wants, (similar to the last (eggZ event) excluding LB vanities . Make it a gold sink event. This should not have an impact on collectables .

    No one asked you to pay 1b+ for an item you can't even use gameplay wise. There's no point of it just laying around in your house as decoration.

    If you like the rarity or the nostalgia, the vanity version are vanity and not gear pieces. The amount of gear pieces in the game won't change.

    How much more nostalgia would i get from hundreds of copies turning into a worn out vanity eyesore rather than owning 1 of the 3-4 original sets existing in game?

    What's the point of owning an item that you can't use in game-play?

    Also, what does nostalgia have to do with the amount of items? Nostalgia occurs when things remind you of sweet memories of the past.

    Even if items come back as vanities, they will be vanities, not gear pieces. So you will still gave your rare 1 out of 3-4 original gear sets.

    I don’t have any memories of dozens of newly joined players wearing a set that has been one of the most expensive and sought after collectables for the past 10 years, in the form of a 100 platinum vanity.

    The point in owning these sets is different for each individual but i personally collected as a hobby when i’m not doing anything else. If they come back as house furniture i would still be obliged to point out the fact that 90% of the people who asked for them to return are people who could have never gotten them any other way because it was too difficult in one way or another.

    If they released recipes to craft these sets into vanity instead then that would fulfill the intentions of forgotten event, the only reason anyone can complain then if it’s solely because they can’t afford it.
