That's just stupid. Agree with you sumrtym.
Most people playing Nightfall have Prophecies as well and can easily switch...
What should I do with a 2nd pumpkin head? lol...... that's very disappointing.

If you have Nightfall buddy key instead retail key, you won't get anything from the Mad King in Kamadan. gg

Incorrect, me and my mates all have Buddy Keys for nightfall, AND, we got the witch hat.

First time around I was able to get the witch's hat, then zone and get the pumpkin crown. Second time, I left immediately after getting the hat and had missed the king anywhere I went to. Are all of the districts synced now?

I think how it works is that the later districts are created after the event has begun in other districts. Hence the mad king comes later in those districts. The increase in the number of people in the districts causes more districts to be formed.

It would be nice if every 5 districts were spaced out from each other by about a minute. That way we could all get masks for all of our characters in a couple of mad king stops. Oh well, I'm just grateful that he's back. Halloween is by far my favorite event.

I like my vampire pumkin helm better than last years helm.

I like them both. I'm just glad they decided to keep last years pumpkin helms unique so we still have our memorabilia that says "I was there in 2005."

This is gonna suck for my storage mules though. We seriously need more storage now. I have all the event hats on two of my characters and various ones on the others.

Lets see, I think this is what we have so far.

Pumpkin Crown 2005
Santa Hats
Grenths Horns
Tengu Hat
Dragon Mask
Pumpkin Crown 2006
Witch Hat

Whew, starting to take up a lot of space now.

It's nice, but I think last year's has that "I'm coming to get you Ichabod" feel to it which IMO is nicer.

u can stay afk BUT afterawhile, other ppl can pick up your items, so I can see a nub coming and picking up the hat that is CUSTOMIZED to you.

That's my new collection...hat's of famous afk'ers.... j/k

I saw a bunch and then they all disappeared from ground. People picked em up and trashed em I guess. Nice people in GW.....

BTW, biggest reason last year's pumpkin head is better...

When you back up from the 2006 pumpkin helm, the whole face blurs like the candles fired up on high heat. The 2005 does NOT do that.

EDIT: Ok, I don't know....one guy by storage in the new helm did this as I backed away from him, but I've been looking and haven't seen since....strange.

odd - been afk for 3 hours and got my hat with no prob...I'd be surprised if they did drop hats as they normally just dump into inventory...

still afk so not going to check

Vrolijk · Oct 31, 2006, 01:35 PM // 13:35

you'll get the hats and other items in your invertory. I think only when your inventory is full that the presents drop to the ground.

I've been afk the 1st round and got the hat.

Cyan The Archer · Oct 31, 2006, 01:36 PM // 13:36

Maybe they were ---- who forgot to clear inventory.

Their inventory were full when they went afk = dump on ground. It's a safety mechanism for getting Halloween trade gifts from the Mad King in case you fill up doing the stuff you don't lose the end item, it goes to ground instead.

i still think the pumpkin hat from last year is cooler

Kyosuke · Oct 31, 2006, 02:38 PM // 14:38

I can't afford NIghtfall... I was really hoping for a Waitches hat too! Hopefully I can cnvince a guildie to get me a buddy key!!!! /me crosses fingers! it'd be cool to have both I suppose!

I agree - I think I'll keep the old one on my Male Warrior and just use the new ones on my female Necromancer and Ritualist.

I went AFK this morning at 6:50 am EST and came back to the computer around 7:45 am. I was around the green circle in Kamadan and didn't receive anything. Could it be because I put my status as offline? My inventory isn't even close to full. I'll probably only have one more chance tonight to try again
