Galen Grey.4709:

- Well the original statement was Anet did add a lot of skins to the game not just the cash shop but somehow that ended up a discussion limited to armor skins.

I’m a little confused about which Halloween skins are which. I was told during “Shadow of the Mad King” the gemstore skins were dropping very-very-very rarely out of the dungeon instance.

There were two types of halloween items during first halloween, the ones that could drop from black lion chest, like Ghastly shield or Chainsaw, and the ones you could acquire via other means, the Mad Moon , The Crossing and Arachnophobia. These were random drops during the first halloween dungeon but you also could get them via PvP, and you can even craft them today.
