Just wondering if there is an official word from ANet/Gaile/theFrog on the Halloween Items. Will they disappear in a few days or can we store them for future occasions?

Raiin Maker · Oct 29, 2005, 02:41 PM // 14:41

yea i was wondering that too. my mate gave me some, but if they stay, i might keep them and sell for uber profit later :P

no idea.. guess we'll have to wait... they do look very cool when used though :P

can some one tell me what they do?

What's the point though?

I mean, you can store them, but each of them only have a maximum use of 1.

It's not really long-term items.

I don't think A-Net is going to keep the items.

That's just my opinion.

But if they sold some decently priced, wicked looking, nice, Halloween Costumes, at every armour seller, that would be nice!

*Hint Hint*

Will we need these items when the event happens? Or are they just for show.

ange1 · Oct 29, 2005, 03:03 PM // 15:03

i think it'll probably disappear, because the whole thing will be repatched?

Can someone fill me on what these halloween items are and where they can be obtained?

you can find them at a un-dead horseman in these places. Lion's Arch. Droknar's Forge. Old Ascalon. I think they added one in the Northern shiverpeaks.

Penguins Will Fly · Oct 29, 2005, 03:45 PM // 15:45

The only places I've seen them in so far are Drok's, Tombs and Lion's Arch.

Ascalon city horseman collects charr carvings (3x), Droknars forge collects stoned summit badges (x2), LA horseman collects decayed orr emblems (x3) and denravi collector wants maguuma manes (x2?).

There is no horseman in the desert because elona is a farmers paradise.

EDIT - thanks Lyra

A-net has said nothing about hatting people making profit off of others wants, not have they said that actual rare items shouldn't exist. Also, they removed the sword that give +5 en, but didn't take it away from other people. I assume these items will stay.

Thanks a lot, Those info helped me x5 .

I don't think the price of these items will increase after they've been removed from the game because they're 1 use each. If they were permanent then perhaps . . .

Never underestimate people with a lot of Gold who missed out on event items.

Depending on what Anet does, I expect there will be people who are stocking up on Halloween items, I also expect people will be forking over stupid amounts of Gold for them.

At least, this prediction comes from memories of event fireworks (consumable items) and the like in Final Fantasy XI would sell for pretty outrageous prices in the Auction House. This being a game where money means something since you are constantly replacing your gear for stats and not ultimately for looks like Guild Wars. :P

Man, I hope they don't turn into a thing which people will sell later on for cash, it happened in Runescape and it sucked... People easily got these items, then sold them later on for big cash, which they shouldn't have by any means at their level.

LiQuId StEeL · Oct 29, 2005, 07:45 PM // 19:45

I'm kind of hoping that they will be used to upgrade your character or something fun like that. In case they are indeed just useless (and limited), I have 80 of each to sell in a few months

Eet GnomeSmasher · Oct 29, 2005, 08:00 PM // 20:00

Meh. It really doesnt matter whether or not these items turn into some rare collector's item for profit since it's not like there aren't already items in the game that are rare and fetch ridiculous amounts of cash - like the sickle.

And it would be nice for some people to have a souvenir of these events, no point in making them go poof really.

Ghost-in-a-box = the new Christmas Cracker. Stock up now
