Default Double Green Weekend
Quote:
This weekend, every boss monster that you slay will be twice as likely to drop a special, or "green," item. The start of this event will be Noon PDT on Friday and the greens will continue to drop at double the normal rate through 11:59 p.m. PDT on Sunday.
So will the market be affected!?

No.. since peoples still favor rare Gold items rather than Green collector one. I can't wait to get those green items this weekend!

LOL, I must go check this somewhere, can't be serious..



OMG, it's there on the guildwars.com website.. i am flabbergasted.


For a second there, had an urge to go green farming. Too bad it doesn't affect kanaxai.. i still want that edge , even if i dont need it.

This is an event? We've sure come a long way since last Halloween...

I can picture it now. "For this year's Halloween event, you get 2x XP because it's the same week as Nightfall release and you'll need it for your new characters!"

These "events" are getting less and less "special"

EDIT: To stay on topic, I believe there will be an initial flood, so the prices will drop. Within a week or so, I would expect the prices to rebound slightly as people will have less incentive to go farming for greens, especially since the drop rates will decrease.

I don't think Totem Axe drop gonna get affected. But this is a good opportunity to farm Koonsun again.

It's Cantha only - Totem Axe is unaffected. I don't think it will work on the elite bosses, because they're 100% drop anyway. This weekend event just doubles likelyhood.

All said, I'm looking forward to it

I'm the type of guy that gets the stuff he needs and then sells all his found stuff cheap. So this doesn't concern me at all.

Exactly, the drop rates are so low that nobody will notice any difference. And I really don't like all those Cantha-only events, because I ain't going back to this smelly, boring place again.

100% chance of drop x 2 is 200% chance... Or a 100% chance of two drops ^^

The past 4 days (double skill cap xep weekend) I've killed over 70 different bosses in factions, and I have gotten ONE green...The Pain Eater. Now this weekend, I can get a green after killing only 35 bosses. Awesome.

It always is Cantha only.

Again, the 2 x 0 post applies here.
