Wintersday 2012 Mini Pets.
Only if they are inside the same RNG chests like last year. It took me about 8000 gems to get them and I would be really annoyed if you could get them for 1000 gems now
I think people should have another shot at these minipets. I got the minipets using 50$ on chests, but a lot of people were less lucky, spending at least double that amount to get them.
I hope Anet will re-release those minipets for those who did not get the chance (no pun intended) to get these minipets. And not the RNG way. Pricy is ok, RNG is not.
I don’t know how much I spent. maybe 50 bucks probably more I have all but 1 pet. The Mini Infernium or however it’s spelled. Was pretty sad I didn’t get him last year. hope they are back and less RNG.
Yeah, after 10 keys used on chests last year, I only got 1 pet, and then realized it wasn’t worth chasing the others because I just knew I wouldn’t get lucky. I don’t think I’ve bought a Black Lion Key since.
They’re account bound too, aren’t they? That’s a real blow to a lot of people. I don’t mind having to buy seasonal minis twice (second ones for using in the MF) since I’m still directly buying what I want.

It’s always great to buy something directly even if it’s a little on the expensive side; I agree.
Sure 2000 gems each if you want no RNG. Otherwise its unfair for people who got them last year.
Also to the OP you should rename this. Petitions are not allowed on the forums if I remember correctly, would hate for this to get closed.
“Sure 2000 gems each if you want no RNG. Otherwise its unfair for people who got them last year.”
This seems a bit silly to me. I paid just like everyone else last year. I was unlucky and did not get the minis but lots of worthless items. These mini’s were not tradable like they would probably be now if it were a new release.
That would have saved some people from getting 3-4 of the same mini as well.
I agree that they should re-release them. But if it’s the same method as last year I will once again not buy them. I refuse to gamble with real money and there’s no way I could buy enough gems with gold to get them.
Considering they have never used that combination (gems for an RNG box for an account bound reward you cannot get anywhere else) since last Wintersday I’m hopeful that if they do re-release them they’d do something to fix it.
Personally I think they should make them tradeable. Then it almost doesn’t matter how they’re released because there’s an alternative. Plus people who get duplicates they don’t want or need aren’t stuck with them.

They could make them tradeable, I got 2 duplicates I could sell.

You did not spend enough. Also the game cannot differenciate between people who tried last year and people who did not. I bet most people didnt try so selling the whole set for 1000 gems would be unfair.

“You did not spend enough”
It’s RNG and that’s how it works sadly. I was unlucky.
Why is it unfair to re-release them again this year?
I am not against rereleasing it, but it should be the same RNG or very pricy.
Introduce them back the same way as last year to be fair.
I already got them from last year but i dun see why people should’t be allowed a chance to get them this year.

Depends on who you were. I probably paid around 600 gems per pet through RNG. (Triple for Foostivoo of course) Could be worse, but I would prefer that people have a non RNG option. You know, let people buy what they like
I only wanted, and got, the mini golem last year. It cost me a good bit. But, I don’t care if they give it out for free to everyone this year. It can’t be any more unfair than anything else that has been done in regard to items/limited-time offers/exclusivity.
