This morning (November 4th) I went to finish the forever friends event before it ended this afternoon, and when I completed the final task (going to school) I didn't have enough points for the onesie item. I had only done the main story quests, assuming that, like previous events, the main quests would give me enough points for all the main rewards and that the optional bonus tasks would just be potions/satisfaction points/etc, but I was 20 points short of the onesie.
I messaged EA support and got conflicting answers. The first time they told me it was a bug and directed me to post here, which is why I'm doing that now, but the second time they said the optional tasks weren't optional at all and were required to get all the main items, which makes me even more confused because why would they be listed as optional if they're not? And what are players who only have the base game meant to do about it?
See the attached screenshots for proof that A) I finished the event quests and B) Didn't have enough points.
