I want to make sure if i don’t get the weapons now that they are not going to disappear on me when halloween is over(chiroptophobia, bloody prince staff). Also many people are saying the new halloween weapons will go up in price on BLC in a few weeks. But assuming they are permanent from BLC weapon trader wouldn’t they get cheaper? As they only cost 1 black lion claim ticket as opposed to other weapons that cost more and are nearly the same price(zodiacs). I was thinking because they are brand new people are buying them at higher prices for now.

The black lion ones will eventually stabilize a few gold under the current max.

The ones that will end up going up are the craftable skins (mad moon, crossing, spider bow). The new recipe calls for an obscene level of materials, making the base cost to craft it 200+ gold.

Edit: If you wait on the chiroptophobia, bloody prince staff, etc… they will go up in ticket price. So if you have a ticket, better to get it now if you like them. Or be risky getting one, selling, and hoping for a price drop.

by level 80 should have the best statistical loot in the game.”

The ticket cost will increase to 5 after probably around a month. All the BL weapons are like that since they added the tickets.

If you can confirm that they will cost more tickets eventually that would be very helpful. Cause in that case i will be buying both weapons now.

You can follow https://www.guildwars2.com/en/ or just pay attention to the news on the launcher. They will announce when the price change will happen before it happens.

I see no reason why they would make an exception for these.

Stop by a Black Lion Weapons Specialist today to pick up one of five brand-new Halloween weapon skins at the special introductory price of just one Black Lion Claim Ticket! Find Claim Tickets in the Black Lion Chest, and you can visit a Black Lion Weapons Specialist to preview these special new skins!

Straight from the Blood and Madness update preview on the main site. The 1 ticket per skin price is limited-time, like with every item set they’ve introduced since they first debuted the Black Lion Ticket system. The price will go up after a while (most likely after Nov. 16th).

No telling exactly what it’ll go up to. Most likely 5 tickets per skin as that’s commonly the price of the skins after their introductory period, but there are exceptions (Sclerite are 4 / skin and Fused are 7 / skin, I believe).
