Why not make Holiday weapons fun?
I agree there. The christmas 2012 was the best when it came to skins, IMHO… you had the big pretty weapon skins you could get on the gem store, and then you had the fun silly ones that were very easy to get… and heck, my mesmer is still using the princess wand..
wrapped up in some crazy ritualist hoo-ha from Cantha.
A real grab bag of ‘you can’t hurt me. They’re called Guardians.

I love that princess wand for the Mesmer.
For the costume items to have a better ‘use’, we probably need instanced events. Like a Ball, a Brawl arena, a Personal Instance Fete etc. Somewhere you can go that benefits from all that whacky stuff we get BUT ALSO allows you to earn more in a fair and fun way.
Don’t get me wrong, going out into the world to do Holiday Events is awesome I just think that for some things we can get it needs to be a defined set of objectives we can actually complete. There is very little balance from ANet with this stuff, its either really easy, almost unattainable in the games lifetime OR gated by RNG shenanigans.
