Everything she touched crumbled to dust.
Anet you have re-released the bunny ears and the wizard/witch hat. Please re-release the holographic shattered dragon wings on the trading post.
Except the Wizard’kitten and Bunny Ears were originally in the gemstore. The wings were from an achievement and the Witch’kitten is different from the Wizard’kitten.
If they’re going to put an achievement reward somewhere to be bought it needs to be in the Laurel Vendor’s list like the other items, not the gemstore.
agreed. you cant put skins that you earn via gameplay and achievements into the gem store. I thought we all agreed on that when they released the t3 human cultural armor with a few flames attached to it as a gem store armor skin.
I think it would be a mistake to put the holographic shattered wings in the gem store. It’s cool if they make gem store items drop in-game for an event, but putting event or achievement items in the gem store has a way of cheapening them. Cue riots.
I’d love to see Dragonbash return, now that we’ve fought Mordremoth. They could have a new set of green wings, and I think that would please a lot of people.

Correct me if I’m wrong but can’t you get the wings from a Vendor for so much candy corn? I have a set in my bank I never used, they really don’t appeal to me that much. I actually had 2 pair and gave one to a friend.
You can get the non-shattered Holographic Dragon Wings from Sonder the Seller, but he wants Jorbreakers, which are nearly 2-3g each, since they can only be bought for 1,000 Zhaitaffy, a candy that hasn’t dropped since Dragon Bash. The non-shattered wings can be bought for 140g on the TP, so there’s really no reason to ever use Sonder for them.
Holographic Shattered Dragon Wings, on the other hand, were only ever obtainable from doing Dragon Bash achievements. They can’t be traded.
I still don’t understand why those wings (and a few other LS1 rewards) weren’t added to the laurel vendor when all the others were.
I agree that they should be brought back. Ideally I’d like to see all of Season 1 come back as permanent content, but since that’s not likely to happen any time soon I think adding them to the laurel vendor along with the other rewards would be sensible.
Speaking as someone who has the holo shattered wings, I’d love to see them added as a glider as well. I’d probably never use another glider again.
Everyone is right the holo shatter wings were from achievement and the witch hat was from Thorn for first year halloween. These along with wings of sunless DO NOT belong in the gem store ever. Yes I have all these items but they were earned not bought and should be left as is. By all means let latecomers earn the wings thru dragonbash etc but the witch hat along with the title (Emissary of Mad King) and the ball cap should ALWAYS stay exclusive. GAME ON
that achievement should have been merged into Lunar New Year IMO

Gotcha thanks I didn’t know what the difference was (or even that there was a difference).
If old items has to be released, why don’t do like in other games, release same item, but in different color scheme? So when people see blue one they still know its from old dragon bash.
And no, even as a replica color gemstore isn’t way to go. Gemstore items like bunny ears in the other hand needs to be released. Why all the gemstore items doesn’t just stay on all the time I has no idea.
I’m just asking:
If LS1 and all the items with it comes eventually back, what has been a point of me playing since launch?
Also laurels are so easy to come by nowadays it would be mocking to ruin another LS1 item with such a small price.

It’s not as if it was difficult to get the first time around.

I got mine by:
- Clicking F on 150 piñatas
- Clicking F on 50 bonfires
- Clicking F on 100 fireworks
- Killing 300 holograms
- Double clicking 250 zhaitaffy
- Completing 4 story instances
- Talking to 8 NPCs during a story instance
- Watching a fireworks display in LA
That is about the same we did. The 300 holograms was the time consuming part. My kid was almost 15 when this took place. They got the achievement and loved the wings. But in a bank cleaning accident they got deleted with a character before they were ever worn. There was no wardrobe then, and the skin was lost. I am still hoping it will not be forever… Since it was the first such a thing to earn, it was very special them. If I could, I would give my skin to the kid.
So, please, bring them back and let those who have the achievement get them too!
I own shattered wings and don’t even wear them. The novelty has long since worn out. Same with fused weapons. Let others have a chance at fashion wars.

Send in a ticket to Anet for anything before wardrobe changes. They replaced my ball cap and witch hat (from King Thorn) after they verified the age of my account. GL and GAME ON

Contacting support can be tried but from what I remember of previous threads where people attempted to recover deleted Shattered wings, support was unable to help them. The item is “imbedded” behind an achievement in the hero panel and was not available for support to hand out. They may have changed it since that time, but anyone contacting support should be aware that they may not have access to achievement rewards.
Cheers for the wing info, flesh wound…..GL Garambola give it a try anyway. I know they gave me back hats but always had the 3 sets of wings (shatter,dragon,sunless). Those didn’t disappear. GAME ON
