Guild Wars 2

So I noticed that the wiki entries for the halloween skins, (crossing, arachnophobia, moon shield) have been updated. The updated text notes that the ALL of the recipes, (Gift Recipe, Gift, Item) are going to be disabled when the halloween content leaves? Is this information correct? If so, where is this confirmed?
I have only heard that Sonders The Seller would possibly stop selling the upgraded mats and the recipes for the gifts may be deactivated, but as long as you had those things then you could continue to work on the final steps after the holiday. (IE: crafting the actual gift and then the item)

Anyway, just looking for some sort of actual reference/confirmation on any of this.
Thanks

shameless bump (no info on this?)

The recipes will stay, don’t know where people are getting the idea that they won’t be.

Sonders is apparently not going to be selling the upgraded items though as you said, so for all intents and purposes they are going to be “disabled” in a way. Not disabled as in the Recipe itself no longer works, you’ll always be able to use the Recipe from your inventory to learn how to craft the Gift and crafting the gift will always work, but disabled in the way that you’ll no longer be able to make the recipe after, because the upgraded crafting materials are required to create the Recipe in the Forge.

So you need to make your Recipe before Halloween ends. Or alternatively, buy the Recipe off the TP or buy the Gift itself off the TP (or buy the whole weapon, of course).

Thanks for the reply! Also, I found this post:
https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/livingworld/bam/The-crossing-and-other-Halloween-weapons/first#post3030062
which corroborates what you stated. This makes much more sense than disabling ALL of the recipes after the event.

Looks like someone copied/pasted incorrect info into the wiki…

I’m actually a bit baffled as to why Sonders would no longer sell the upgraded items though. If ANet really does want to soak up oversupply of festive mats after Halloween is over, why would they take away the biggest sinks after the event? It doesn’t affect me as I’m not going for any of the Halloween weapons, but I’m just confused as to their line of reasoning.
