Guild Wars 2

I’m very confused about the minis from the consortium chests. The three minis are listed in the “Special” mini tab in collections yet there’s only a small chance to receive them and for a short period of time.

So far, all “Special” minis have been obtained from buying the CE/DD and buying the minis straight up from the Gem Shop on Halloween. Both sets of minis were guaranteed. This set of minis is chance.

I read that everything that you can get from the Consortium Chests, you can also get via drops during the upcoming event. I was wondering, is it possible for everything in the chest to be looted after the event as well? I’m just confused that they would add three slots to the “Special” tab and there be a very big chance that those slots would never be filled for you.

My fiance and I love to collect things in MMOs. Minis have always been a fun collection for us. We’d just like to know if this event is the ONLY chance to get these three minis short of buying them on the TP? If any ANet could give some solid info on this, that would be greatly appreciated.

Anyone know if the Consortium Chest’s contents (including the minis) will remain as drops or other means after the event weekend?
