Guild Wars 2

Isn’t one of the main points of this event to distribute a neat set of armor to people who put in the effort to get it?

Take the profit out of the equation.

• Make the armor set similar to karma gear – no salvage, no sale, account bound
• Leave the boots in the clock tower puzzle where they are.
• Make the other 5 pieces come from Labyrinth event chests in specific locations for each of the 5 (spiders, candy, skeletons, gargs, mummies)
• People can still transmute the equipment for looks and runes and stats transferred to other pieces.

Everybody gets a cool set of gear if they put in the effort & the economy is spared the impact of a flood of salvaged items.

It’s neat that people can get salvage-fodder exotics an all from the event chests, but they can get those from anywhere else already. Why not keep the holiday event drops to gear?

This would be too simple and make too many people happy, we can’t have that now can we ?

/sarcasm.

OP, that would be great if they did this. I doubt they will.

Why would they soulbind it when theres people like me who dont want the set? Its just the 70 – 78 exotics set with a different rune inside it.

the skin is not unique. it is pit fighter, dualist, and seer skins

It would be really nice if Anet consider this, if they already giving the boots they should give everything else

If you don’t want the holiday event set, don’t do the holiday event?

I do the event because its fun, not because I want the items. I dont know where you got the idea that I didnt like the event, Im loving this event. This was merely in response to the OP who suggested that they soulbind the items, I would rather them not as it allows me to sell the items that I get.
