Anet, you gave a discount for pick axe. This should have immediately been followed up with sickle and axe in either order. Neither one has been shown yet. Everyone who wants a permanent harvesting tool is anticipating the other two to have the same discount during this sale (if you don’t, that’s just an kitten thing to do). Quit putting stuff previously on sale on sale again and put the harvesting tools up so we can buy them and start making use of the gems we bought to get them.

They have been and gone, maybe they will appear again.

Day’s 2 and 15, for the sake of reference.

Day 2 did not give half-price (500 gems) on any tool. Or any kind of discount for that matter. So it is irrelevant to bring this up in response to the OP. Day 2 is not a discount that has “been and gone”.

Day 15 is the pick sale to which the OP is referring. It did not include axes or sickles. OP is not asking for the pick sale to return, but for equivalent sales on the other two tools. Day 15 is not a discount on axes or sickles that has “been and gone”.

There’s still what like 6 days left?

And something people don’t seem to be realizing is that in large part this sale is designed to drive lots of sales on the gem store, thus so many of the discounts being for small quantities (like 1 bag slot consumable so people couldn’t buy 3 and save for their revenant)
So it wouldn’t be surprising to see them only put the pick on sale.
After all people will want a full set, that means higher demand which means less incentive to discount.
