Guild Wars 2

I enjoy halloween events from act 1-act 3 so far. It has been fun, but one thing that bugged me was the loot.
I was kinda surprised after completing the mad king dungeon, all we got was a inventory bag. The problem is inventory bag does not reflect on the character, people want stuff that can tell something about them, like what they have accomplished in the game. Inventory bag with trick or treat art on it just doesn’t do that.
I don’t think players come to halloween event asking for top stats armors or weapons, people are just looking for souvenirs that can put on the character and distinguish themselves from other players that chose not to participate the event.

Mad memories flaming book is a good start, but I was hoping maybe a stylish helmet or armor with simple “halloween 2012” on top of it would be nice. It doesn’t have to be mad king related, just some odd looking halloween theme souvenirs that people can take to battlefields and brag about it to other gamers with. Hopfully, act 4 can address the issue.

That is exactly how holiday items should be-silly fluff no one is going to be using come Christmas time; that’re more about the fact you were there for the events. It shouldn’t be about crazy grinds for crafting, playing the TP for what you want at a reasonable price, etc. Should be easy and fun and honestly, kinda worthless.

How do you get the flaming book? I got the plain one.

Mementos are important to people who play guild wars 2, we showed up for the event and got a 10 slot bag to show for it…..sorry but that was hardly worth the wait and certainly was not worth the time.

In most cases the cut-scene was horribly bugged on some peoples screens all they could see was the statue blowing up and a green fog above it with the camera shifting about. once you get in you get “Mad king says:” similar to Simon says! Which doesn’t work btw Even if you do as he says nothing changes and after you have killed off the random skeletons and spiders you get to kill the mad king of thorn…that’s it

act 1-2 were better then act 3 loot wise i have received nothing from this event to even call noteworthy or to even show there was a event to begin with….

Do the second half of the scavenger hunt, there’s not really an indication that there even IS a second half, but there is and they’re all in 30-60 level areas. Consult an online guide to know where to go.

Thanks Chrollo.
