Default Add festival drops to HA

The suggestion is very simple: during wintersdays and other festivals (chanta new year, halloween, thnaksgiving), give a gift to people playing HA, for each point thay gain.

This is not sufficient to make pvers to go farm in HA their gifts, of course, but it would a little prevent people to abbandon HA for farming gifts, having the opportunity to gain some even in HA.

It has been done also for gvg, so I think it would work in HA.

This won't fix anything in the long run.
The format needs to be more fun to play for it to be less crap (aka not fun).

As coast says, this won't fix anything.

If anything, all the current bitchbar builds (bbsway, trashway, bspam) will have a reason the more to farm HA with their redicilously boring and overpowered gimmicks, and any new players that might get lured will simply get rolled faster, and be more eager to leave once they see what a barren place HA has become.

I mean, I'm all up for it:

I can still form HoH teams from scratch whenever I feel like it, so I wouldn't mind free money, but to what extend?

Mite aswell give everyone 1K whenever they change a district. It doesn't make any sense, and it doesn't add anything, just like adding festive rewards to HA...

I dont think new players will be lured, as pve is far more convenient in term of rewards. I was thinking at keeping the pvp players in pvp during festivity, instead to go farming or to snowball fights.

I honestly don't care. I liked getting them in GvG and I would like to get them in HA (even though I never play it anymore). But, I honestly think there is no reason that you should.

Only if the Drops would actually drop and be assigend to a random player on the opposing team and the drops are for every PvP type. Could be funny as hell in the Monthly GvG Commentaries... "Player X is going in for the final spike, it looks like this could be the final blow catapulting them into the finals... nope he was distracted by an Eggnog assigend to him a few agro bubbles back."

To be honest , it won't do anything. HA has now become either in bbway festival ( i.e between euro 6pm-1am ) either as inactive as amatz bassin. In other words , it's not really fun ( + these facts i mentionned aren't the biggest problems ..) and having some eggnogs per win won't make anyone play. Actually , like Coast said , people might play a few mins till they realize it's pointless...
