    Default Golden Wings

    Just wanted to share my experience with the Lovecraft event. I ran the event mostly with my level 10 twink sorcerer. I ran the boss many hundreds of times and looted a ton of chests and a ton of letters. I was able to craft enough tokens to purchase one of every sorcerer vanity item and multiples of a few of them.

    I opened a ton of the chests, and managed to loot multiples of every single item except I did not get one single Golden Wings for sorcerer

    This is the one item I wanted more than all others, and it's a shame that I cannot even trade for one or purchase one from another player. Meanwhile I have 6 or 7 wings for warrior and rogue which are of no use to me because I don't play those classes.

    I can understand the logic of making leaderboard vanities non-tradable since that way only those who worked hard for them will have them. However, the last few events have kept the leaderboard vanities tradable, so that logic seems to have been overlooked.

    In any case, there is absolutely no reason why vanities which are looted from chests should not be tradable, especially if you are going to make it so that a sorcerer can loot warrior and rogue vanities from those chests. I cannot think another example in my 2+ years of playing Arcane Legends (since the beginning) where a class specific item that was looted from a boss was not tradable.

    Anyway, I hope STS will reconsider this in a future update. It would be nice to get my sorcerer golden wings, and I'm sure there are warriors and rogues out there who would love to purchase my warrior and rogue wing vanities. I farmed like crazy this weekend to loot these items and 75% of the ones I looted are absolutely useless to me.

    And a couple other (much smaller) complaints:

    1) If you are going to make it so that I can loot dragkin teeth with my level 10, then you must allow a way for me to cash them in at the dragkin teeth vendor.

    2) What good is looting 1 story token? This happened to me a couple of times after killing the event boss. What can I do with 2 story tokens?

    Your calm nature is shocking... I gotta start writing down notes haha.

    But anyways! Yes! you're totally right. Although this event was super disapointing for many of us, Its time to improve for next time

    They don't have to wait for next time. They can make those vanities tradable right now. It would not be the first time a vanity that had been untradable was changed to be tradable.

    I informed ArpluviL bout the story tokens, and she said she left a note to devs

    because we all know that if you have 99 story tokens, we all know that you need 10 more tokens to buy an inventory chest (sarcasm)

    For the golden wings, idk if you tried opening the chests on another class character, in order to transfer the golden wings throught stash. It worked for me.

    For the Dragkin teeth, I think the game is meant to be played until cap level, then the few dragkin teeth you got are meant to be used when you reach lvl34 Too bad you're a little smurfy twinkly twink

    I lost all my gold for those wings but all I could loot was hugthulhu. I kinda feel like giving up on AL. I feel too far behind.

    Well congrats to you sir, not everyone can be as lucky as you are. People are just saying that those wings could be tradeable... what's wrong with that? YOU opened this thread. So YOU shouldnt complain.

Keep farming and I'm sure you'll get the wings that you are after

    Thanks for the feedback, we're always listening and keeping these ideas in mind for future events.
    But that doesn't mean you can't get your wings, you can still try and get them from Lovecraft chests.

    And I might be one of the few people who was actually ok with the sets not being trade-able, it gave me something to viciously hunt for knowing that it would be exclusive and fairly rare. Also the fact that the chests were trade-able kept me farming if only to grab a few extra to sell for the people like you who weren't able to able to get the set they wanted. As a farmer through and through, it was a win-win, imo.

    I have to agree with you on those last two points, though. I saw no sense in dropping story tokens in single increments, and I think there should be a shared satchel in our stash for those random teeth and story tokens.

    If they can make it tradeable now. They should do it. That was the worst prize of losing 10m from economy into something that most of us hated. People who thought it was fun and was an amazing event have lower expectations due to the new game settings.
