Makes no sense, after 6yrs that they'll be back? All we asked really is Green Arlor for Mages, as those are not made yet.
One reason is maybe this event is so boring and basically the exact as last year, that they tried to blind us by re-introducing something worth farming during the event, that is Winter related, hence these 6yr old Green Arlors.
Who suffers? People who own them, there are 2 types, the merchers, and legitimate people who really bought them to wear and keep. These merchers are the ones to complain, cause now, its a massive lost for them, and probably months of merching revenue lost.
I have friends who bought them to keep, they didn't cry, neither didn't bother about the resale value, but rather, they have a better reason about it, and that is the Exclusivity of it. Now, they see their Green Arlors commonly in town, like as if Grinch took over Arlor, as suppose to Santa.
It really is these short-termed keeping merchers who planned to merch them, as they knew that these overrated vanity has risen quick, and still on-going. So they bought them to merch, as resale value will profit them later on. Boy they were blinded about how STS like to surprise. Note to merchers, go go go sell your Black hooks, Mauls, Kershals and Balloons, as STS likes to surprise everyear, telling you this now :), as we wouldn't like to hear crying babies in the future.
"But hey they said they wouldn't do such things" yeah they said that, and what has happened so far? All just insults, Recolored Spirits, Golems, Barons, Shiny Balloons, Lovely Balloons, Introducing 6yr old Vanities, lb Banners, recolored gears that originally came from S1, boring thoughtless badges, and decieving colored titles that took them 1minute to think of, and couple minutes to make.
Although now that this happened, we are more aware about the re-introduction of exclusive vanities. Who knows, they might release Tree sets for all classes next year, just because they've lost creativity into making new designs.
How to prevent this? Aswell as recolored pets, recolored Lb banners, recolored vanities etc...
They should listen to us, and host contest designs, this system will give the community a democratic decision, which is good. As its guranteed that the best design will favour the majority of players. The design would show Originality, Uniqueness, Attractiveness, and most importantly not Recolored/Similar.
Although its basically players doing all the work for Devs, and giving them a better revenue. But, we shouldn't think that way, as we all know that the Devs way will just disappoint us, and more drama, more players leaving. We should thank STS if so these Contest Design gets Implemented more.
