Rare Miniature Event
Hey All.
This isn't anything MAJORLY big.. but i've seen rare minipet giveaways and most of them are given away around america... japan.. and other places near there..
As i am from England it would be nice if they hosted a Minipet giveaway over here too... Most of you will probably be against this as not alot of you are probably from here but To me its a good idea..

Of course its a good idea to you. A free 1000e-20000e ecto giveaway?
How bout you keep powertrading for the minipets and leave them at their inflated value.

definetley! we never get any of the minipets over here in the UK
it isn't really fair that people in certain countries have the chance to gain more money (or items), whilst people in another country have no chance. oh well, least theres still plenty of miniature oozes

Or put every miniature in the Zaishen Chest. Every single one of them becomes less rare, prices deflate, powertraders QQ but everyone will be able to catch 'm all.

/agree but cant be too common.. at like 0.1% drop or something.....
Miniature Vizu - 0.2% (Zaishen Chest)
Miniature Panda / Miniature Island Guardian - 0.3% (Zaishen Chest)
Miniature Zhed / Miniature Shiroken - 0.4% (Zaishen Chest)
Miniature Oni - 0.5% (Zaishen Chest)
Miniature Naga Raincaller - 0.6% (Zaishen Chest)
Miniature Yeti - 0.7% (Zaishen Chest)
This way they will still be really rare........
Also i got this other idea.... If anet make some new high end content (Harder than UW / FoW / DoA) and put a Miniature Kanaxai there at a 0.1% drop rate..
Or instead of wasting there time make a Miniature Urgoz.. and put Kanaxai in the Deep and Urgoz in .. well Urgoz :P
Miniature Kanaxai - 0.1% (Deep Chest)
Miniature Urgoz - 0.1% (Urgoz Warren Chest)

only in our wildest dreams. if all the minipets were accessible, then a lot of players would have quit a long time ago.

With those percentages they still would become way to common. It should be more like 0.001%.
And I don't care about the mini's anyway. I would like it if the panda dropped down to 5k so I can buy one too, don't care if they are not rare, its about the looks right? ^^

I think having miniature pets in Guild Wars would be stupid.
What would be the point?

First you need to come up with a new mini they would add, a reason for them to add it, and an event for them to host in Europe (notice I didn't specify a country) to give it away. Outside of Nicholas I haven't seen a new mini for a long time, and the special event ones have been around for a long time.
Vizu and Kanaxai were both given out in 2007. Vizu was available in Europe from a magazine, and Kanaxai was available to anyone via the Wintersday Art contest (so was Vizu).
Grey Giant and Asura were available through magazines in Europe, and the Destroyer of Flesh was available to Europe through the use of the Asuran key codes.
Shiro-ken and Zhed were both available in Europe through magazines.
Ceraton was available to anyone with internet access, which is anyone who plays GW.
Grawl, Oni, Yeti, and Naga were all available to Europe through magazines.
That only leaves the Panda and Island Guardian, but the Island Guardian was available to ANYONE through the same Wintersday Art Contest as Vizu and Kanaxai.
They are rare, but which ones were limited to areas outside Europe? Except for Japan and Taiwan, all of the minis given away were done through a website or magazine promotion. I just don't understand what you want for Europe that wasn't already done.

Please remember that most of the 'rare' minatures that were given away were merely made for promotional reasons, for which you mostly had to pay real money to get (buying magazines or travel to this or that event) or win a tournament (attracting more players) etc etc.

With all the micro transaction going on, Anet may as well put a rare mini package up on
their store.
rare mini package = $50.
I wouldnt be surprised there will be even more idiots willing to shell out the cash >.<
