Hi,

I would really like a, " Festival Hat Seller ",
There are hats i miss, and i would love to have.

What do you guys/girls say ?

JASON626 · Apr 01, 2008, 06:29 PM // 18:29

I think it would be fine. After all they are just hats.

Maybe have the hat seller require certian unique crafting material for each hat to be made.

I have missed some weekend events because after all weekends can have plans other than guild wars :\ Go Go week long events

Defiantely /sign!

Though for those spoil sports that don't want others to share in the fun, they could make it so this guy crafts noticeably-different-but-still-about-the-same hats as past festivals.

I dont know what to say.

On one hand, it would be a nice idea for those who cannot get hats from other years. But, on the other hand, each hat is unique, and adding a NPC would kill the ``In the right place at the right moment´´ formula of the Festival Hats.

/halfsigned. If you pay the Hat Seller like 10k per Hat.

I've missed a few aswell.

Missed quite a few here, the hats are a reward for participating in the event.

That's pretty much the logic.

If you can't stay for the event, you're probably doing something more important anyways. The only event I'd consider this void for was the Day of the Tengu that was exclusive to early access accounts to Factions, and even then it wouldn't be fair to make that mask available again (unless otherwise worked into the lore).

I missed the first year of events, Did not know about the events at all. I just saw pumpkin masks but no one was talking about it as this huge secret.

I'd like to be able to get the original masks to add to my collection, I have not missed a single event yet since i learned about them.
Infact, its one of the things that keeps me coming back to gw. I love the events.

I was so noob the first year I played that even though I attended the winter festival, I couldn't figure out what to do to get a nice hat ;P

Why is it that when people want to keep something hard to get they get called elitist yet when it comes down to a simple standing around afk while your asleep its a no thats not fair?

Agree

BTW: I've missed a few events because I was actually spending time with family/friends. So, I'm not trying to be an elite prick about it.

Sir Pandra Pierva · Apr 01, 2008, 09:41 PM // 21:41

i would like to get my old dragon hat back. Not a new one but the old one with an animated back

Kanyatta · Apr 01, 2008, 09:55 PM // 21:55

I really don't see why not, I mean, if the Festival Hats were worth like, say a Runescape Mask (and I can't even believe I'm making that kind of reference), then I could see a problem, but it's really a 'just for fun' kind of thing. It's really nothing to flaunt.

I don't see a problem, even though I have every festival hat unlocked.

No negatives here at all.

Hats, unlike headgear, must be EARNED. By being there, by gathering stuff... whatever the way it is, but not just by paying for it.

Add other ways to earn them...? Maybe. Allow to sell them just for gold and/or materials? Never.

Video games shouldn't be work, where you have to "earn" stuff with blood, sweat and tears. It's just for entertainment. It's not like the hats give you a damage/defense bonus or anything.

Seriously, someone give a reasonable answer as to why NOT to implement this.

You didnt have to 'work' or 'earn' the hats. You just had to be at the event. It's a reward for loyalty to the game and community participation. Having this would be similar to having a Birthday Present Trader.

I was at most of the events. I even stayed on line for the last halloween ones. One prob. I didnt get to switch districts and get the other one. I just have scarecrow. I stayed logged on but had to take my daughter to the ER. Now maybe I am being a whiney brat but I did log the time, just was unable to get the gear.

The only one I dont see fair (even if I do want one) is the tengu mask. All others should be available.

/signed stop being all 1337, its a freaking hat.
