No matter how the minis are aquired, they should ALWAYS be tradable.

This is a moronic fumble on Anet’s behalf.

Actually I think it’s intentional, they’re getting people to burn out all their gems trying to get the miniatures through the boxes then they pull this out.

Miniature Wintersday Trio

It’s been in the item list since the 14th and it’ll probably encourage even more gems to be bought just to get the pets for certain.

Hmm haven;t seen that yet, which item list are you referring too.

Also as a side note, people so far have been, for the most part, respectful in the way they’ve been voicing their complaints or otherwise, and I would like for that to continue in this thread

Hope you’re having a good Sunday ^^

I think I missed the part where you HAVE to have the entire collection. If everyone is so OCD that they just MUST have the entire collection, then you’re going to have to shell out some $$. That’s the whole point…

I don’t see a problem with any of this. Mini pets don’t freaking do anything…

I won’t stop because I can’t stop.

It’s a medical condition, they say its terminal….

Because some people actually join games like this FOR the collection part of it? It’s actually a large player base that enjoys collecting. Also, we know we have to shell out cash, this whole thread we’ve been writing that we’d be willing to buy 2 of the trios to get all 4 at whatever price they set them at, or at least make them non-account bound so that we can work up enough gold to buy them. You’re not reading what we’re writing properly….. We will gladly throw money at the screen, but not for an abysmal chance at something completely account bound that kittens you if you get duplicates.

IIRC you can throw any 3 of the festive minis in with the 50 stuffing and still get the 4th mini. So duplicates are useable.

Is it ok to state that I’d rather pay a fixed amount for something than to have to only have the option for random items?

Is that ok? Or is that also ‘complaining for the sake of complaining’ and thus prone to deletion?

If you can read this then it is proof that ArenaNet’s moderators just, kind and fair.

Yes but some people are getting 9-10-11 of these minis (lucky kittens) and what are they going to do with them? Destroy them, because there is nothing else to do with them. Honestly, if they wanted to make it a gamble, they could have at least made it so that they could be traded and obtainable that way.
