I couldn’t find a thread on this so I decided to create this and hope that everyone who has suggestions could also post here too.

I know the event isn’t over yet but I wanted to post these few suggestions down before I forget. I will probably post more after the event ends.

-Bell Choir event – very fun, took 1-2 games to figure out that it was essentially guitar hero on the keyboard, perhaps better visual instructions to explain this since every time I go there, there’s always a few asking on map chat how to do this. Also, the pitch is one note off (I have perfect pitch)…the 1 key (supposedly the C note) is actually the D note if you can hear and recognize musical notes. If it begins on the D note, it should say D, not the “Do” or C note.
-Choir Bell – should have a longer duration like tonics, maybe 10 minutes. You can only play a limited number of songs. I kind of wish it extended up to 2 octaves and as a chromatic scale (includes semitones, e.g. C-sharp, D-flat, etc.) since it was hard to play a tune that didn’t have any sharps or flats in them.
-Tixx dungeons – they were fairly short and self-explanatory and most of all, I find them very fun. I love the voice acting too, very well done. The chest in the end was icing on the cake. I love the toy frames and the chance to make minipets or endless tonics. I only wish that gifts you open had a higher chance of wads of stuffing or drops of glue since the price of those mats were too high. Also appreciated that you can trade ugly socks/sweaters/hats for toy frames for those who missed it or were unable to log on that day due to real life commitments.
-I enjoy the random pop of box presents that fall from the sky in explorable areas. The random foes you had to kill was not too bad (plush griffons, toy soldiers, dolls, skritt). Only thing I found tough was the doll casting confusion on you, it made everyone I know afraid of those scary things haha.
-Wintersday skins from gifts – would be nice, in addition to weapon skins, you get some wintersday armour skins (like wintersday outfits but different from gem store).
-Also, a big thanks to Anet for allowing us a chance to download the guild wars 2 wintersday music soundtrack for free on soundcloud, I’ve been listening to it every day! I absolutely love the music!!! Best christmas present ever!
